    We were made to feel at home the minute we entered this beautiful home. The food was delicious, the bed was comfortable and everything was spotlessly clean. It was a most enjoyable experience and we will most certainly return.

    I loved this B&B in that the furnishing were beautifully ornate with candals, antiques, huge rooms, proceline treasures everywhere you look. The bed had a down mattress cover! It was very comfortable. The owners were very friendly and welcoming.

    The room was beautiful and Marie was friendly and very helpful. We only saw her when we checked in and when she served us an amazing breakfast, but she was just a ring away.We will be returning to Westby House again.

    We stayed in the Pine Room which is located in an adjacent building. It was quiet and comfortable. We liked the in room breakfast that was supplied. It allowed us to have breakfast and start our day at our own pace. Good value.

    Innkeeper Response
    The Pinewood Room and Scandia Room are both nice places for all the reasons listed in the review. Glad you had the chance to stay with us. Thanks for the review!
