A host like no other, Carmel made us feel like royalty. She welcomed us with tea and cookies upon arrival to partake in our very own charming, comfortable sitting room (offered in addition to our own bedroom and bathroom to use). We slept very well, and then opened the door to discover a breathtakingly beautifully laid out royal breakfast. Really special... but above all these elements of our experience are extensions of the old soul of the Carmel, herself. Thank you for such a memorable experience. Highly recommended!
