Sandy and Cathy were convivial hosts and provided us with a lot of helpful advice on areas of local interest and our journey onwards to Cape Breton. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and the bed/mattress was very comfortable. The Inn had been lovingly restored and was full of character. A small improvement for us would have been the provision of natural yoghurt and decaf coffee for breakfast. ##### Jacqueline Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick Jul 11, 2025 Cathy and Sandy are outstanding hosts.

Once checked into our room we met them along with other guests on their beautiful deck & shared a complimentary glass of wine. Sandy shared many historic stories of the area, very interesting.The room & inn was very clean & the bed very comfortable. We were served an excellent continental breakfast the next morning, Sandy serving it in his kilt. The only issue we found was the air conditioning could have been functioning better on such a hot night. ##### cyntha Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacques Aug 23, 2024 Liked: Amenities Amazing, top class...friendly, lovely couple, quality rooms. ##### Jacques Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Murray Sep 18, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Quaint but well appointed.

The aircon knobs control was removed and was told the aircon was set to maximum. It 35 degrees outside and waited 2 hrs to cool and complained that it was not cooling. We had to fight for the aircon to be fixed and called Expedia to to move us but to no avail ##### Fermin Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CONRADO Sep 19, 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Quiet laid back property.
