The staff are amazing and so welcoming, and the breakfast was all fresh made. The bed was a bit too soft for our liking though. Would recommend, it’s a lovely historic mansion

I would stay here again in an instant. The service was personal and efficiant. Aaron was especially helpful and went above and beyond for us. We only stayed a night prior to our cruise, but they treated us like we would be there forever. Will be back for sure.
