Everything that you could want was provided by the host.

    Darlene was a lovely host. Sharing her home and living on the premises she went out of her way to ensure that every detail of our stay was exceptional, including turning down our beds and providing a cooked breakfast. If you enjoy a chat and visit with your host, browsing the beautiful garden, you’ll love this B&B.
