Cozy babymoon

Stayed here for our babymoon and we really enjoyed it. It was tucked away and private and the grounds were beautiful. We enjoyed getting our breakfast up in the room by the fire. The bed was super cozy and the sheets were so soft

Cute clean bed and breakfast. The breakfast they serve every morning is straight out of a 5 Star restaurant in my opinion. The atmosphere is to die for. We stayed in the Library, cutest coziest room I’ve ever stayed in. The room is a vacation all on its own. Already planning our next stay we loved it so much

Nice B&B beautiful old building and nice staff. Fire alarm in hallway went off two nights in a row so the interruption at 4 in the morning wasn’t fun. Breakfast was delicious.
