We had a very nice room and excellent breakfasts. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend staying at this B&B.
We were able to relax in this beautiful setting. Our room was decorated beautifully, the place was spotless, and the breakfast was delicious. Our hosts were exceptionally kind and accommodating towards us when we were delayed unexpectedly. Thank you ! We enjoyed walking about the well kept gardens.
The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Their home was beautiful and our room was also beautiful with a lovely view from the shared balcony.
Delicious homemade breakfast.
We enjoyed staying in our charming, comfortable and spacious room. Also, we loved relaxing on the balcony and looking out at the pretty view. Ross and Ruthann were wonderful hosts. Breakfast was delicious.
Our short stay made us wish we had more time here. Gorgeous grounds and very friendly owners will bring us back for a longer stay next time we're on the island.
This was a very ordinary stay in what was listed as a 5 out of 5 B&B on HOTELS.com. The photos on the website were not indicative of the room we were provided. Also, we often prefer to stay in B&Bs because they offer something different from hotels, snacks with tea in the evening for example. This offered very little apart from a home cooked breakfast.
We were also disappointed on the lack of a clear sea view although the house was in an attractive area.
Overall, the room we stayed in was not worth the price that we paid and there are many better places to stay in the same area at a lower price per night.
Enjoyed our recent 3 night stay at the Laburnum cottage. The accommodations were quite comfortable and certainly quiet. The cottage itself is nicely decorated and the hosts were very gracious (I got too used to having breakfast delivered on time every morning!).
