“Coming to this B&B was a surprise birthday getaway for my wife. She was absolutely thrilled about being here. We have been to about six B&Bs previously and, hands down, The Inn was several cuts above the rest. This place gave us a great opportunity to reconnect. We were at our own resort out in the country – completely relaxing and peaceful. We stayed in the Berllan Glyn King Suite. It was like having our own apartment. The bed was SO comfortable. I had trouble getting my wife out of the Italian soaking tub and I loved the steam shower. We even had our own screened-in porch. The grounds were absolutely gorgeous and manicured. What really made our stay perfect were the innkeepers and owners, Bobbi and Jeff. They took care of every single detail. They were completely hospitable and attentive. Jeff is responsible for the best omelette I ever had! We could not stop talking about our stay to family, friends, and colleagues. Recommendation – you need to stay more than one night. One night does not do it justice!”
