Central Bar Guesthouse

Good location

Breakfast could have been better

Breakfast was very good but I thought it would be a good idea to have orange juice and tea . Staff said you could only have one or the other.

Clean and comfortable. Great location, staff were friendly courteus and helpful.

Breakfast was at a cafe 5 mins walk away and was excellent. The room was very comfortable with good amenities. Also enjoyed the bar in the evening. The host was very friendly and helpful.

We liked everything about our stay.

The staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough for us.

Very reasonably priced accommodation, central location. Breakfast was served in a little cafe just a couple of minutes away and was lovely. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Free parking just across the road. All in all we had a lovely stay.

Friendly town friendly people a lovely place but skip the breakfast very poor not very helpful. The breakfast was not at the property but in a near by cafe who didn't care about you and I don't call 1 x sausage 1 x rasher 1x egg and tea a breakfast

The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were excellent. Room was excellent for a family room. Large double bed and 2 bunk beds hidden away in a alcove in the room.

We knew we were staying over a bar so you would expect some noise, In fairness, we didn't hear much from the bar and they had music playing. It was the takeaway across the road was the issue and a late night bar further up the street. I was up with my wife and 2 kids , 12 and 15, we were going to the Open. The weekend we were there it was extremely hot . So we had to open the windows to keep the room cool during the night as there is no air con. So we could hear people downstairs coming and going from the bar till about 1am. As I said that's not a problem as we expected that. The issue was the takeaway across the road was open on the Saturday night till 4am. One of the bars further up the street had a band playing to 2.30 am which we could hear. Once the band stopped , then a dj started till 3.30am. When that ended it seems everyone headed to the takeaway, so for the rest of the night we had people outside the takeaway singing and shouting as they waited for taxis or lifts home. Then when it all died down and the takeaway finally closed at 5am there was a couple of people who decided to race their cars though the village for another 20mins. It was 6am before we got to sleep and we were up on the Sunday for 8am. In summary , I would say there again during the week it's probably grand as no night club open and takeaway says it closes at 11pm. For a weekend stay i wouldn't recommend it purely due to the noise generated by people hanging around the takeaway and it appears to be taxi pickup point.

Claire is just such a nice person. Alister and Smokey too. Just go and enjoy.
