"My daughter and I stayed one night at the Inn and we were both very happy with our room. We had 2 queen beds, the room was large, clean and well maintained and had a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Not only did we have a porch with 2 comfortable chairs, we faced the garden where there was more seating and a lovely place to sit and enjoy being outside. Parking was limited, but the staff were very helpful in making sure all of their guests were accommodated. Very nice experience overall."

"The bedding in this property has been significantly upscaled. The beds, linens and pillows are all absolutely comfortable. The rooms were clean and very large. The breakfast that came with the room was far beyond any continental I’ve ever had. Everything was fresh. There were high-end pastries, and even scrambled eggs were hot and delicious. everyone at the property was welcoming and friendly."
