“This is a place where history lives, evident in its beautifully restored seventeenth-century structure and sympathetic furnishings. The garden, a peaceful haven, immediately sets a relaxing tone, a sentiment carried through to the thoughtfully appointed rooms with their welcoming touches. Alan, the host, is clearly the heart of this establishment, his extensive local knowledge and genuine hospitality elevating the entire stay from simply comfortable to truly engaging.”
