A classy guesthouse close to Vilnius Cathedral (see pp48–9), Dvaras means “manor house”. However, the interiors
resemble a richly designed country cottage, with wooden floors, thick carpets and elegant furnishings. Excellent
meals are served in a cosy but little-visited cellar restaurant. http://www.dvaras.lt
