The Manor is definitely a unique experience. If you've ever wanted to experience a bit of the day-in-the-life of the 18th Century Leisure Class, this is a fun opportunity, as well as an out-of-the-way romantic spot for the adventuring couple. My wife and I stayed here for two days around our anniversary. Silvia was warm and welcoming, provided a tour of the house and let us wander freely about the grounds. The house is capital-O Old and therefore has lots of of Old House charm, including some stained wallpaper, dark hallways, cool drafts, and creaky furniture. But Silvia keeps it all very clean and provides all amenities needed to feel comfortable, warm, and secure. The grounds and gardens are amazing! We spent 4 hours wandering about and feel like we could have spent another day discovering all the beauty surrounding the Manor. It really is the reason to stay there. It is a bit out of the way - definitely recommend renting a car to get there - and the surrounding villages are small. This is not a tourist spot. This is a place to stay if you're looking for peace, quiet, and beauty.
