New management is not as good as previous owners; particularly that the D I Y breakfast has been cut out. A very gracious old colonial home with period furniture. Well worth a visit for the experience of yesteryear.

Quaint stay
Pleasant old house with large rooms, nicely appointed. However the owners are probably not aware that their complimentary fortified wines were actually just a regular Cab Sav and sweet white wine in the decanters. Lovely spot for a wine on the balcony though.

Lighting inside the room was poor, making it impossible to read anywhere, in the bed, by the desk whatever. Simply needs one good, bright light somewhere. Otherwise a lovely old room.
