This place is a gem. It’s an entire lovely “campus” that is a joy to walk around and find a place to sit. The coffee and sweet cakes in the morning are unbelievable and just in a much different category from comparable lodging. Will stay again.

Beautiful grounds and buildings. Room was very nice, but since the room can sleep 4 people an extra upolstered chair would have been nice. We had dinner in the Taproom. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Would certainly stay there again.
