What a lovely stay! We came here for a baby moon trip and had a delightful time. The location was perfect - walking distance to all the fun shops and restaurants. The room was cozy, clean, and comfortable. The breakfasts were delicious. Veronica was a fabulous innkeeper - very kind and communicative. We will be back.
