We can't wait to come back! We highly recommend this lovely place. The staff are all so kind and helpful. The beds are so comfortable. Loved the music that plays in the rooms and the tub! It was very peaceful and felt like an extension of home, but better! The wine and cheese tasting is a very nice touch and the breakfast is so quaint and delicious.
