I'm surprised by all the glowing reviews. We do travel a lot but still I'm surprised reviews are so high. The staff was nice, that was the biggest plus. The house is 130+ years old and was a boarding school. It's old and creaky, not romantic or charming. Our room was so small we had just enough room to walk around the bed. We were completely disappointed. Nothing charming about it at all. We paid $300 to upgrade to a nicer room and got a small cottage. The layout and space were nice, fireplace, small bathtub, all good and well. The downside was it smelled both mildewy and like Fabreeze. We live in CA and know prices are really high here, but even so I didn't think this place offered a good value at all. The original room was expensive for being a tiny room under the stairs with lots of noise from passing neighbors. Except for two of the cottages, all the rooms are on main streets with lots of noise. I can't recommend this place even though the staff were friendly. There were no vegan breakfast items and no vegan milk. We went out for breakfast and coffee.
