This is a beautiful old house that is being renewed with love. Rose and George have done a wonderful job of renovating their home but still trying to keep the overall character of the house. Though we didn't have much interaction until the next morning, Rose and George are pleasant and funny. I wish we had gotten in earlier to have been able to visit more.

I was assigned the Victoria Room in this B&B that is under renovations. The hosts are very nice and quite chatty. I found the entire breakfast to be outstanding, with the banana bread, sausages and coffee as the stars of the breakfast! My room was cozy, and it had all the amenities that one needs. The waterfront where the tall ships dock was only a 10-minute walk from the B&B and there is a local pub a block away. I would highly recommend the Rose & Thistle Bed & Breakfast who want to experience such a friendly and welcoming environment.
