We have used Chelsea Park 4 times previously and it is consistently very good. The owners go out of their way to be helpful.

Clean, comfy, quiet, and conveniently located (15 minute walk to town centre). The small private garden with a bistro table is the perfect place to chill with a glass of wine. Recommend.

Pleasant motel within walking distance of downtown. We were lucky to get a room, but it was a bit small. The kitchen is functional and has everything you need. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We would love to come back.
