"A great historical property which is not too far from the main roads. A converted church, so voices tend to carry. Great for solo travellers because you can get a room for one person. Bathrooms have all amenities, but could use a larger floor mat outside of shower, floors were a little slippery. Inside main quarters, beautiful stained glass and ceiling features. Front desk was very helpful. "

"The staff was really nice but it was kind of a problem because I had medication that I needed to put in the freezer and they wouldn't let me put it in a freezer so we put it in an ice bucket but I don't think that's going to work"
