“This historic inn envelops you in a sense of calm, from its beautifully tended gardens to the quietude it fosters. I found the rooms spacious and comfortable, with thoughtful touches like ample storage and a particularly inviting bed. Steve's welcome, often accompanied by his renowned banana bread, truly elevates the stay, creating a relaxed atmosphere that encourages lingering.”
