Everything about our stay was excellent! We were there for a family wedding and it was splendid...the venue was perfect as was the food. Everyone we encountered were professional and warm. Our room was clean and comfortable and extremely spacious. The bathroom was completely unexpected...very updated. Highly recommend and we will return!

Very cute room. Felt very cozy, comfortable, and homey. Loved the little fireplace space warmer for ambiance. Room was spotlessly clean, bed was quite comfortable. Overnight guests got complimentary coffee, tea, and pastries from the bakery. And best of all, the room was very reasonably priced! I’ll definitely stay here again whenever I am in the area.

Wonderful, charming historical accommodations, with a very attentive and courteous staff. Although the decor is to period of late 1700s, it’s very clean warm and exudes a sense of old-world hospitality. Very well kept grounds and common areas… cozy bar and delicious bakery options complimentary each morning with your coffee. Very reasonably priced… we will stay again. Also, Katrina was our “bar server” very good. .
