Very lovely true bed and breakfast. We only stayed one night but this would be a lovely place to spend a couple relaxing days to unwind. Beautiful grounds and decor. We enjoyed chatting with other guests in the evening and at breakfast.

This is an absolutely beautiful property and the hosts were gracious and lovely. Our room was small, but guests have access to many beautifully furnished rooms in the house along with extensive and beautiful grounds. Breakfast was delicious and served at a large dining room table so guests could visit with one another in the morning. A lovely stay, and very close to the airport.

Wonderful, welcoming property.

What a beautiful property! The room was lovely: spotless and so comfortable. This is a place I’d happily come back to for a longer stay. The welcome was cordial, breakfast was delicious, and the garden was restful and well maintained. This is a gem!

Amazing home and grounds. A feast for the eyes when we first arrived. Absolutely beautiful heritage home. Room was stunning. Unfortunately, we only stayed one night as it was our last stop before heading home. Excellent proximity to airport. Really wish we had more time to enjoy this lovely property! We had to leave before breakfast so cannot comment on that.

Just a quick overnight stay. Owner and staff friendly and property well kept. Room was large and bathroom was average for an older home. Dining area has a large table where guests can share stories while eating. Convenient location to hwy and amenities.

Beautiful property! Recent overnight stay to attend a wedding. Appreciated the early checkin to get dressed. Purchased a bottle of wine for later that evening, very reasonably priced. Enjoyed relaxing in the various sitting rooms while admiring the beautiful antique furniture and artwork. A very welcoming space! Very comfy bed. And a delicious full breakfast the next morning prior to checkout. Would highly recommend!

This a large, beautiful, and well maintained 19th century heritage home. It has amazing character and is beautifully furnished in a style matching the home’s character. The owners/hosts Con and Rose were very warm and welcoming. We enjoyed a nice bacon and egg breakfast in the dining area with the other guests. There are many amenities down the street (gas station, grocery store, bank, and restaurants). An excellent choice if you need a place to stay for a couple of nights that is only 10 minutes from the airport by car.

Beautiful property on a quiet lane. Big comfortable bed in a compact but tidy room. Many options for relaxed seating in common areas. The hosts were welcoming and hospitable, recommending a delicious restaurant around the corner ( Bitars). When our room was a little warm, the host quickly provided a fan for our comfort. Easy access to the airport for our morning flight home. For light sleepers, note that there is an active train track nearby with occasional trains during the night.
