Simply Charming
Walking into the foyer is like stepping back into the Victorian era…luxurious and beautifully restored and decorated. Lots of amenities, our room and bed were extremely comfortable, and we enjoyed walking around the neighborhood. The Strand has lots of shops and restaurants and the homes are showing the resurgence of a bygone era. Highly recommend for a romantic couples getaway.
