It offers you six comfortable and bright bedrooms, WiFi wireless internet access, central air conditioning, dramatic and relaxing gardens with a lighted gazebo, plush bedding in each of the spacious guest rooms, cable TV, a bountiful country breakfast and the elegance you would expect in a wonderful, historic bed and breakfast. The dining room (adjacent to the sitting room and interior porch) has Victorian influenced wallpaper in its burnt orange and bright blue colors, French country furniture and a large Oriental rug.
