The gardens are of the fairytale variety. My host greeted me with a warm smile and let me know that if there was anything I needed I could simply ask- but, no need as every detail was addressed. The accommodations were charming and oh, so comfortable. Hummingbird Hill was not only the perfect place to unwind, it was balm for the soul.

Debi's place was a slice of heaven. Every photo in the ad was correct. Her gardens were exceptional & peaceful. I stayed 8 nights & could have easily booked a month. From riding horses, hiking & writing I was at total peace. Weather staying for a day or more it's totally worth it. Thank you again Debi for sharing your beautiful home with me.
