Rob lives in a beautiful old building lovingly restored. The setting and gardens are peaceful and beautiful. And to top it all off Rob is the most consummate host. Nothing is too much trouble for him. Try to make time for a chat because Rob is a wonderful storyteller with a droll sense of humour.
If you like dogs this is a great place to stay because there are a number here, all very friendly and loving visitors. If you're lucky you may see a hare in the garden.
The house is old and has a wonderful character. The stairway creaks in places but it's a nice walk up to the rooms. Lovely old furniture adorns each room and guests a invited to wander around the house and gardens. Well worth doing.
Breakfast is self serve but Rob sets everything up in the kitchen. Easy to manage cereal, toast etc. and you can get yourself a cooked breakfast if required.
The place is maybe a 15-20 minute drive from town but the road is ok. A bit winding in a couple of places but no problems.
A quirky, beautiful place to stay. Our room at the front was massive and afforded distant views of the ocean to the right and snow capped mountains to the left. And a hare on the front lawn just down from our window.
