    buttermilk biscuits
    afternoon tea
    charming gardens
    oily sunscreen
    crowded pool

    The buttermilk biscuits for breakfast were to die for, and the afternoon tea was a delightful touch! Plus, the charming gardens added a cozy vibe to our stay.

    While the pool was inviting, some guests forgot to rinse off, leaving a gross layer of sunscreen floating on top. Yikes!

    Charming Stay with Room for Improvement

    Our stay was pleasant, with lovely staff who arranged a last-minute dinner reservation at a fantastic seafood spot nearby. However, the room felt cramped with limited space for our belongings. For a more enjoyable experience, consider opting for a larger room or bringing fewer items.

    A charming boutique hotel just steps away from local attractions made for an ideal stay. The lovely breakfast each morning and refreshing afternoon snacks were a delightful touch. Additionally, the complimentary toiletries provided an added layer of comfort. While the atmosphere was pleasant, a bit more attention to room maintenance would elevate the experience further.
