Very different to any property I have stayed in before. James the owner was extremely helpful. The history of the building is interesting. Very basic but that adds to the experience. There is a chapel which has a living room with a fully functioning kitchen, which has all you need to cook a delicious meal or to sit and relax with cup of tea. An amazing place to stay if you would like to stay somewhere different from the ordinary.

This was on my bucket list, staying in a gaol. It was very clean, basic facilities though but ideal for the young (at heart!) and ideal for backpackers. Quite an experience late at night!
