Glen Morey Country House B & B Inn

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed our stay for two nights. Great location, easy to walk to downtown. . The family cats were very friendly as were the deer, that were in the yard seemingly every time we were outside. We only had breakfast one day as the other day we left early. I don't recall being asked or informed before what the breakfast options were, since there was only one, it didn't matter. Breakfast was fine, with sausages, glass of OJ, fruit cup and a toast frittata and was served to our room. There were nuts on the frittata so anyone with a nut allergy should be aware. We stayed in the Stirling room with a King and queen bed, perfect for our family. The room has large book shelves and antique furniture. The room also had a small outdoor patio as well. Great "extra space" with a garden table and 4 chairs. The only not-positive comment is that the room could have been cleaner. There was notable dust on the bookshelves and in the corners of the room."
