I can't say enough good things about this B&B. We stayed during their Crimson and Cooper special which was $145 for all rooms Sunday-Thursday and half off the second night. You also got a voucher to return at the same rate over the upcoming summer. We stayed Thursday and Friday night in the Maid's Suite Back. Normally, the room is $175 a night but with the special, both nights came out to $260 including tax. It had it's own private bathroom, sitting room, and outside patio that had it's own private entrance.
The bed was a little hard but after walking around all day, it still ended up being comfortable. I also spent alot of time curled up on the chaise lounge with a chenille blanket in the room. There was also a faux fireplace heater which kept me nice and toasty on that lounge. The tub/shower and sink is a part of the sitting room which was a little odd but we didn't mind. There is no TV or Wi-Fi which forced me to relax more. I appreciated that.
The grounds/gardens are nice and many little spots throughout the house and yard that you could catch some peace and quiet. The views from the front porch of the house are incredible and my husband and I spent a few mornings drinking coffee out there looking out.
The breakfasts that Andrea made were amazing. The first morning, the dishes consisted of a seasoned white fish, homemade mustard sauce on the side, a cauliflower bake, bread pudding, marinated zucchini, cheesy grits, and homemade vanilla scones. The scones had a homemade cream and chocolate sauce on the side. Oh and before the hot dishes were put out, there was a homemade sorbet on the plates.
The second morning, there was a mix on the plates consisting of bananas, yogurt, and some granola I think. The hot dishes were a shredded pork, irish soda bread, cinnamon scones, cheesy eggs, and sauteed mushrooms. Of course there was the various juices and coffee. In the fridge was also stocked with drinks, beer and wine for the guests. This was easily one of the best B&B's I have stayed at and it is rated #1 on Tripadvisor. I can see why and can't wait to return.
Room Tip: There is no Wi-Fi and hard to catch a wireless signal

I think I need to hire you as my marketing director. Wow! What a review. Thank you very much, and I'm so glad that you really enjoyed yourself. I would like to make one correction however. We do have Wi-Fi - sporadically. We broadcast from our computer station downstairs. Sometimes the signal is strong and dependable, and other times it's not there at all, and we haven't been able to figure out why. We'll keep working on it . . .
