I am a booking agent for bands and a concert photographer, so I have been to many inns and hotels. This by far is absolutely the best stay I have ever had! The breakfast is amazing and the couple that runs it is absolutely the best. If I could give it 20 stars, I would. 10/10!

Stunning location

Absolutely beautiful B&B! Marge & Dan are wonderful hosts. They cooked us farm to table breakfast and home baked gluten free bread. Incredibly accommodating with my gluten sensitivity. Much appreciated. Grounds and view were spectacular! Highly recommend.
