Fantastic Stay, Will Return!
beautiful gardens airy rooms character bar
The wedding I attended was great! The gardens were beautiful. The large, airy rooms were a plus. The character bar and dining room were also very nice.
The pillows in the room were old. They were also uncomfortable. I will bring my own next time.
