First the good, this is a beautiful place with immediate proximity to a small town that features great shops with very friendly people. It was nice being so close to the river for some romantic walks and the porch swing looked like it would be a treat on a warmer day. The garden was well kept and the Dillon room where we stayed was excellent.

Areas for improvement included the fact that the breakfast was lackluster, the Jacuzzi tub was for one (not two) and the room was not freshened up at all during our two night stay. There was a general lack of attention to the detail that you would have expected at a B&B

My plan was to stay in a B&B for one night for a quick break, and instead I found a Victorian mansion in a dream-like village with hosts that made me feel relaxed and welcomed. Don helped me carry my bags from the car and gave me the grand tour and history of the place. All of the rooms are incredibly beautiful, but the Dillin Room where I stayed is the perfect "honeymoon suite" - spacious, comfortable, charming, romantic. I spent the afternoon on the front porch, playing music and talking with Teresa who is a warm, caring person. In the evening I ate at one of the town restaurants, which was very good food at reasonable prices. The next morning I enjoyed a good breakfast, with coffee on the porch swing in a gentle rain. Later, I took a walk by the river and explored the shops all morning. I found every one of them to be full of unique items and friendly shop owners. Before leaving, I had lunch at another restaurant and enjoyed the food there as well. I could not have asked for a more perfect getaway!
