I do not like to give negative reviews based on emotion or "one bad moment." This review has been well considered and details/ supporting images provided. >>>Arrival was after sunset.

We were excited to stay here, but were quickly disappointed when no one was there to greet us and we saw the state of the manor... it is a mess.

Breakfast was delicious every morning and the dinner she made... More

The house and the area have a rich history, and offer endless opportunities to relax and take in the purity of the country.
