The inn was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. Having hot drinks and a refrigerator available were very nice. The breakfast was delicious, and it was nice to get to chat with other guests around the large table. Our only complaint was that we had hoped to spend time in the living room in the evening, but the record player didn’t work, the selection of games was scanty, and even if we had found a game to play, the lighting in both the living room and dining room was so dim that it would have been difficult to see to play. These slight deficiencies would be easy to correct, and overall this is a very nice place.

What a unique place! Breakfast was fantastic, the decor is gorgeous, the little extras were very thoughtful and kind. We found it because we needed a room to sleep 3, which dramatically reduced the options for us, but what a gem we uncovered because of it! We had a great time playing trivia games and listening to your excellent vinyl collection in the lounge in the evening. Definitely would stay again if we’re ever back in town!

It was such a pleasure coming home to this relaxing location at the end of our busy days. It is a shame we couldn’t stay for longer. Everything was so perfect, including the wonderful breakfast!
