Fodor's Expert Review
Antique furnishings, period details, and personalized attention make a stay here feel like an overnight at a friend's house. Guests are pampered with a wine and cheese reception held daily, a library filled with lit classics and the owners' extensive record collection--which you can play on the turntable.
