A Wonderful Victorian Stay
really good breakfast helpful owner lovely view
The breakfast was really good (I especially loved the variety of options!). The owner was very kind and helpful, always available when needed. Our room was fantastic. The view from there was lovely. I felt very welcome.
The towels in the bathroom weren't as soft as I would have liked. Only one felt pleasant.

cramped bathroom unstable wi-fi
the breakfast Included a good variety of options.
