My wife and I just came back from an anniversary stay at the Chestnut Charm Bed and Breakfast. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves., and saw a lot of interesting things in the area. By way of background, we are experienced travelers, in the States, and elsewhere – we have stayed in a number of different types of accommodations here, in Canada, and in most of Europe. We are veterans. Here are some specifics. Our suite in the carriage house was spotless, roomy, had a lovely balcony on it and was very clean and comfortable AND quiet. It was, as one reviewer said, a step back into another era. IF you’re looking for modern and new, go somewhere else; if you’re looking for a relaxing time in another era, you want to come here. The breakfast was home-made, good and was served in a sun room which had a lot of plants which, not surprisingly are in dirt, as most plants are (unless they are plastic) We did not feel “unclean” at any time The owner was very helpful and understood privacy. When we first sat down for breakfast, she asked if we wanted her to join us and, at that time, we said no, and she very nicely went away and checked back in again. She was very helpful with suggestions on where to go and things to see; and if she felt she was offering too much information, she would back off quickly. If you don’t like suggestions, just say no. We certainly did not feel like “teenagers” as one reviewer put it. In short, this is an older place with old furniture and charm; yes, there wasn’t internet service in our room, so if you’re trying to conduct a lot of business, you might want to go elsewhere – but frankly, it was our anniversary and that’s the last thing I wanted to be tempted to do (there is an adequate WIFI router in the main room which you can use to check emails). We recommend this place.
