The thing that let it down was that I felt that sometimes Sarah was curt and rude. It certainly felt like she had forgotten that we were customers. I came away certain I would... More

This is the beautiful family mansion which has stayed in a family for many generations. The hostess and her husband are wonderful and welcoming.
