Great place to celebrate our anniversary:-)
Our room was exceptionally clean & comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and sparkling ( would’ve loved a bathtub). While a bit more expensive than we usually pay, the extras made it worth our while. We missed the evening wine event, but loved that we had 24 access to coffee, tea & cookies. Upon arrival, we are our picnic lunch in the garden. Very peaceful and romantic. The breakfast was fantastic. I loved sitting outside on the cozy rockers in the morning. Most of all the employees were very pleasant, helpful & friendly! We stayed in the Brick Barn room. The only drawbacks were the noise from the highway and the small parking area. although gated, when we arrived back late we had to park along the wall. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay!
