"My husband and I were visiting friends in the area, and because they have 4 dogs, and I am allergic, we stayed at Chanticleer for the entire week (7 nights). Since we arrived on a Sunday evening there were few other guests at first, which was really nice because we felt as if we had the whole estate to ourselves! The "common room" is not at all common--fireplace, games, etc. Since there were few other guests for the first 2 nights we were offered breakfast in bed! The breakfasts were all delicious--eggs benedict, blueberry stuffed french toast, breakfast puffs, etc. Our room (# 14) was lovely, and the bathrobes are to die for! The shower was one of the best I've had--excellent water pressure, and a steam shower to boot! The views are just beautiful, and it was very quiet. All one hears in the AM are the birds. We had a picnic by the pool one day, which was very relaxing. The service couldn't have been better. The entire experience was extraordinary, and I would not hesitate to stay there in the future. We have stayed at B&Bs all over the world, and this one ranks among the top. I recommend Chanticleer without reservations (but do make reservations)!"
