A Bit of a Disappointment

The TV did not work. If it had, it was out of date and very small. Bathroom down the hall--not easily accessible. Breakfast was minimal--no choice.

Great old house, they have cats. But the cats are very friendly and love to great the guests. (No cat box smell in house) House is clean, it's an old house, so it does have its squeeks. Nice history is told to guests about the house & the original owners. Chris was a professional chef, so breakfast is guaranteed to be delicious. Would stay there again.

Cats inside

The breakfast was very good. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The owner has inside cats which moaned in the night. He warned us but I didn't understand at the time. I was fortunate I didn't have asthma because I'm allergic to cats. The outside was unkept but the inside room was very clean.
