The other reviews, good and bad, seem to be on target. When I first arrived, I hated the place, with its thrift store curtains, grimy kitchen, and having to share the bathroom with everyone in sight. There was no "afternoon tea" as advertised. However, as time passed, I grew to enjoy its sweet, quaint character. If you've ever been to... more

We were supposed to stay seven nights...we could only handle THREE. The mothball smell in our sons' room, urine smell in the hallway, our tiny room, the cluttered mess everywhere, one shared bathroom for everyone, tub tiles peeling from the wall, the porch had no clean chairs to sit in, no sipping sherry, no VACATION. Are b&bs supposed to tidy... more

A friend and I stayed at this B&B for 3 nights. We experienced the same 'monitoring' mentioned by others here. One morning at the breakfast table, I was scolded in front of other guests for 'slamming my door', while in reality the problem was caused by a sticky door jamb. Before leaving for some shopping on a very warm afternoon,... more

The owners lived on the same floor as the guest rooms. And the guests share the same bath and kitchen as the owners. The rooms are extremely small... more

on reading the negative review I feel obliged to take the time to respond to this outrage. I stayed at the B&B for several nights last fall and I am planning to return. The hosts were warm and friendly and willing to go the extra mile to make my trip enjoyable. The brekfasts were freshly cooked each morning and were... more

Several of us stayed at this establishment for 3 nights. Three nights of feeling monitored, stalked and unwelcome. The owners lived on the same floor as the guest rooms. We shared the same bath and kitchen as the owners (no living room or sitting area). We could only fix tea in the kitchen, and when we did, we were monitored... more
