The home and garden is stunning - so quiet and peaceful. In the spring, it smells so sweet. The hosts were very kind, very responsive to messages and make a great breakfast!
Jessilyn, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was in a very old house. Beautiful antiques inside. Very kind and hospitable post. She made a carrot cake that was absolutely amazing. We didn’t get to spend much time there as we were fishing early in the morning however, I would definitely recommend to stay. The beds are full-size but extremely comfortable.
David, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Inconvenient location, dated house with too many tchotchkes, very narrow steep stairs to rooms. Positive aspects: lovely couple who runs the B&B, very clean, comfortable bed, delicious treats available for guests.
