This B&B has an informal feel that worked just fine for me. Arrived in time for late afternoon tea and then headed out to Jane's on the Common, a highly recommended restaurant a ten-minute walk away.

I stayed one night at Marigold B&B. Joan, the host, is very friendly and hospitable. I stayed in the room at the front of the house, and it was quiet (no street noise whatsoever).
