It is a quaint, beautiful Victorian home that is well-maintained, with charming appointments in each room. We were greeted with the aroma of home-baked goods for breakfast along with a choice of savoury or sweet mains. The French Press coffee accompanied the meal, and everything was delicious. The hosts and manager were lovely and attentive to our needs.

Charming historical property, yet over-rated.

This property needs more interior upkeep: maintenance, not renovations. It is overpriced. The gourmet breakfast was delicious but more like a lunch (no fresh fruit, no bread basket, juice must be requested). The Lasalle bedroom was spacious and comfortable but needs a flow control on the central air outlet. There is no thermostat in the room; we were freezing on the first evening.

Liked: Cleanliness
Lovely, well maintained, heritage property. Great place but not really for me. It is not suitable for many seniors - stairs are taxing, units are over air conditioned, no desk service. The amenities listed - dining room, lounge, cafe are only available by appointment. On holidays one might want a more relaxed schedule.
