Golden Celebration
This was the most exquisite place we have ever stayed in. Everything was picture book perfect- and we were treated like royalty! Be sure to go into the castle garden and smell the rose named “Golden Celebration.” It has the best scent ever and was a fitting reminder of our golden anniversary! We highly recommend the history tour for an even richer experience!
