Positive: The hosts were very nice and the breakfasts were terrific. The grounds are lovely.
Negative: Stayed in the carriage house next door to the Inn and it had a very steep winding staircase to get into the room. Best for young people, which we weren't, but we made due. Also bed very soft - you have to like that. Floor in the room was also crooked because of age, so that may annoy some people. If I stayed there again, would want to be in the main building.
Summary: Generally worth considering
