10/10 Excellent

Staff was amazing! Food was amazing! Garden was amazing! I think there should be a garbage can beside the fridge and one in the bathroom. When someone is in the washroom, no place to put garbage.
France, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We were pleasantly suprised with how charming the house and property is. From the front porch swinging bench, to the well maintained gardens and pond. The service is also above and beyond. Josh greeted us all day with a huge smile and generously helpful. We also had the Fondue dinner which was such a fun way to end the day. We will definitely stay again. Great for couples.

Beautifully restored historic old house. Character with all modern conveniences. Breakfast was fabulous. Chef took great care and served us personally. Loved it!
Jennifer, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The property is historic and has been lovingly restored and maintained. It is in a quiet neighbourhood and the garden is delightful. There are however a lot of stairs to get to the bedrooms which might matter to some people, and the soaps & shampoo have a very strong fragrance which I didn't like. The scone was the best part of breakfast.
Diane, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Enjoyed my complementary morning coffee in their comfy bathrobes on the porch swing in the middle of an ice storm. The morning breakfast was lovely, enjoyed the ensuite and fireplace in the McKay room.
Charlotte, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I had a very enjoyable stay and appreciated the attentive service, the gracious reception rooms and the gorgeous gardens and the delicious breakfast. My room was very attractive and comfortable especially the bed. I slept very well. The room could have been a bit warm but a fan and an operable window ensured it was cool enough at night. The bright modern bathroom was well appointed. And views from sitting areas were beautiful. Thanks so much!
Alannah, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautifully decorated, stately elegant home for a relaxing time in historic Kingston. Great location for walking to shops/restaurants on Princess Avenue. Would prefer the dispensers to be less FORCEFUL, as the lovely Wellington Soap products are all quite viscous. Gorgeous 4poster bed in McKay Suite. See you again, when the garden is blooming!
