History, modern comfort, pretty!

Probably most central and I think most modern hotel on the island. Public spaces, lobby, gardens are lovely and rooms are well lit, beautifully appointed and very comfy beds. Keep in mind that it is a historic building so bathrooms are tight but mine was bright, updated, CLEAN with great hot water pressure. Good mirrors for makeup etc. mini fridge, mini split ac iron hair dryer everything you’ll need. Only reason not 5 stars is shoulder season restaurant was closed. But coffee and small bar served in lobby. Pretty gardens and porch!!

We loved this adorable hotel. The room was quaint and cozy, the staff was very friendly, and the grounds were amazing. There is a life size chess board near a very pleasant outdoor seating area under an old willow tree. Right out of a story book! Even made friends with the roosters that reside in the back :)

Hotel was prime location but building could use some work/upgrades. The biggest issue I had was that there was a farm behind it and every morning from 5am-8am a rooster crowed incessantly..

Would stay again.

A lovely gem walkable to town in one direction and other hotels (especially Spring House where you can cocktail on the lawn) in the other direction. Having a room with a balcony was a plus for gorgeous breezes. But we forewarned, bathrooms are tiny.
