"My daughter and I stopped in for a one night stay. It was a lovely experience. Jenny and Gerry were warm and kind. The mansion was beautiful. My 11 year old daughter was especially enchanted with the beautiful garden and fairy homes throughout. We stayed in the peacock chamber and we felt like princesses. My sleep was excellent. We have gluten allergies and had an early morning leadership convention so Jenny was so dear to our fruit and granola in a to go box for us. We would love to visit again sometime. Highly recommend!"
