Lots of things to love and I must say the breakfast is awesome. The tea cakes are wonderful touch. Beds are comfortable and the rooms are massive. Lots of charm in an historic house. Staff is extremely friendly. I really enjoyed my stay. Rooms are clean with great air conditioning. Towels are fluffy and water waiting in the room. I would recommend replacing the carpet in the carriage house that leads to the upper floor.
