We arrived on a cold, wet afternoon and were delighted to find the fire alight and lights on. The welcome supplies in the fridge and fresh fruit were very much appreciated. Beds were very comfortable and warm. Beautiful decor and art works. The information provided on the artists and history was appreciated as well.
