Just make sure you check breakfast times yourself. The lady at the desk gave us the wrong end time for breakfast and we missed it. Floor in the room was a little dirty but bed was clean and super comfortable. Beautiful grounds.

In spite of their being no facecloths in my room, this was still an excellent place to stay. The breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast but I’ve seen worse. The coffee was from a machine that “brews” it…it was pretty bad. But overall it was clean and cozy, would stay here again!
