    My Girlfriend and I stayed in their Rasberry Room. The staff was very friendly and the whole stay was extremely pleasant. I would definitely go back. The only reason I didn't give dining an Outstanding rating is that we were attending a wedding and did all of our eating off site.


    Excellent!

    The house is charming and the host and hostess (owners) are very friendly. The breakfast was fabulous more than we could eat. Fresh fruit, blueberry pancakes, bacon, cheese cake and coffee. I would highly recommend this place, and next time would stay for more than just a day. They have a lovely sitting room on the first floor that we unfortunately did not take advantage of because of our limited stay. You will not be disappointed.


    Lovely place, lovely people

    The House and grounds are beautiful and historic, and Bill, the owner, is charming, and quite the historian! Absolutely worth it...

    Highly recommended. Bill, the proprietor, was a little eccentric, but offered a great experience.
