    I loved the history, the beautiful antique pieces, lovely linen and attention to detail. They offer old world charm with a flair of style and modernity. Molly was an excellent host and I thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour of the hotel.

    Location beautiful and quiet, though no restaurants nearby - but that’s fine if you’re happy to do a 15 min walk. Loved sitting on the porch for cheese and wine in the evening - all very good quality despite being free. Staff were very helpful...

    The most amazing experience. The house is exquisite, and the wonder is kind enough to let you wander así if it was your own. Have breakfast in the dining room, read a book in the library, cocktails in the ball room. Impossible not to get the feel...

    The property was a beautifully restored 1843 home. The front porch was set with comfortable rocking chairs and while we were there one of the hosts offered to bring us a cold beverage.
