Varför människor älskar det
- Every single room has a view of Lake Hamilton
- Legendary two-course gourmet breakfast included daily
- Complimentary use of kayaks, canoes, and pedal boats
- Strict no-kids policy (15+) ensures genuine peace
Snabb Överblick: It's a sleepy, high-end B&B that feels like a private estate, so don't expect a lively bar scene or late-night room service.
Recenserat av @jillsfoodtravels: I spent the most relaxing weekend here. Waking up to the fog lifting off Lake Hamilton was magical, and the private jacuzzi made our anniversary feel so special. It’s quiet, intimate, and the gardens are beautiful.

5 saker du bör veta innan du åker

💡You can order a 'charcuterie board' to your room if you don't feel like driving out for dinner.
💡The Wi-Fi can be spotty in the far corners of the garden.
💡There are no TVs in the common areas, keeping the vibe intentionally social or silent.
💡The innkeepers bake fresh cookies daily—grab them in the afternoon.
