This was a great stop for a night on our way to Sugarloaf to ski. We booked last minute, but were given very clear check-in instructions. The room was comfortable, clean, and the extra amenities like the living room and breakfast supplies were an added bonus! We would absolutely stay again next time we’re up this way.

Perfect place for a quick one night stay. Just needed a place to sleep for the night and the hostel provided. Wish we got there earlier to play pool or darts. Gives us a reason to come back!

Very nicely taken care older stately home. There's a pool table in the living room, ukulele, guitar, and a small banjo. Very nicely decorated. Its cheaper than others, but a better quality of stay. I recommend it
