Fodor's Expert Review The Abbey

Draped in heavy velvet, mammoth windows look down upon carved-wood settees, huge glass-front bookcases, and a harpsichord inside this Gothic Revival B&B in the historic district. Victorian writing desks and plush armchairs are part of the bedroom comforts, along with walnut or brass beds—some four-poster. The adjoining Cottage is beachy counterpoint to the formal main building; rooms have a casual mix of white wicker and greenery.
