We stayed in the Heritage Suite, which is absolutely beautiful with its four-poster bed, fireplace and seating area, spa bathtub, and - most charmingly - its own veranda with seating for reading plus table and chairs for dining. We loved feeling tucked away in this beautiful room with its private outdoor space for the duration of our stay. Our hosts, Phil and Merryl, did everything they could to ensure a 5-star experience for us.

As a fan of period piece films set in the 19th and early 20th centuries, I truly felt transported to another time and place. My husband and I definitely plan on returning when we can. Thanks a million, Phil and Merryl, for helping to make my 50th birthday a memorable one. More
