Loved by guests
"This is a beautiful restored 19th century house in a central location with pretty inner yards."
"Tea, served in a silver service, in one of the small courtyards of the gardens, under a vine covered pergola, was the nicest way to be introduced to our stay that I have ever encountered."
"Antique furniture, silver dishes, soft light that spreads around the room and creates comfort, rooms are individualist, but in the same genre."
