“What struck me most was the palpable sense of history and character that permeates the property; it truly feels like a step back in time, yet remains exceptionally comfortable with its well-appointed suites and thoughtfully prepared breakfasts that vary daily. Its proximity to Main Street is undeniable, allowing for easy exploration on foot, though be prepared for a bit of an incline if you're heading back up. The innkeepers themselves clearly invest a great deal of care into making stays feel personal and well-attended, anticipating needs with a warmth that elevates the entire experience.”
