We loved the family that ran this property as much as the property itself. They were so friendly and hospitable, and the food for the breakfast was delicious. I wish every B&B experience was just like this!

Beautiful setting
Beautiful place in a beautiful setting. Owners couldn’t do enough to help and make the stay as relaxing as possible. I stay away a lot with business and this is probably the cleanest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Highly recommend for a relaxing break.
