Lovely historic home that is well loved and it is apparent. We were here for two of the coldest nights of the year yet it was so cozy and inviting. Jodi was lovely and answered our enquires immediately. The breakfast was good and there were a lot of choices. The room had a few extras such as granola bars and flavoured water which were a nice touch. The website is excellent and gives you things to do in the area which was much appreciated.

Yes, the room was spotless. Plenty of very nice little extras in the in-room fridge and cabinets, nice to have two places to lounge in. Continental breakfast was more than adequate. Very nice indeed. Jodi is an excellent host. Very understanding and works with the guest very well, to make sure the guest gets the best situation possible.
