Eia’s loft is lovely and colourful place to stay and where it’s away from the pubs and main streets I found it to be a very peaceful stay. I don’t drive and everything you could possibly need is within walking distance. There is a lovely tea room below that sell both eat in options but also take away sandwiches etc which is very convenient. It’s well set up for a self catered stay.

Eia’s loft is lovely and colourful place to stay and where it’s away from the pubs and main streets I found it to be a very peaceful stay. I don’t drive and everything you could possibly need is within walking distance. There is a lovely tea room below that sell both eat in options but also take away sandwiches etc which is very convenient. It’s well set up for a self catered stay. However, the original advert said there was a tumble dryer and other agents are still advertising a tumble dryer. There was no tumble dryer which was a huge inconvenience to me as I had packed minimally on the bases I have spinal issues and so to keep baggage down I intended to wash and dry clothes. When the agent contact the owner they denied advertising a tumble dryer and edited the description. I have found 4 other adverts listing the property as having a tumble dryer with other agents. Then there is a clear photo of a jacuzzi bath which does not work. There are no windows in the bathroom so it does tend to smell damp after a couple of days. But there are plenty of other places to hang damp towels etc so as a single person this wasn’t a major problem. But if there was a couple and more towels being used it may be.
