“Harbourfront historic inn boasting authentic period decor and interiors. Rooms successfully marry old and new; four-poster beds, fireplaces and Georgian-style walls combine with discreet flat-screen TVs and docking stations. Manicured lawn plus cosy lounges create an exclusive home-away-from-home.”
