Photo of Captain Simeon Potter House

“18th century Captain's home with country garden and idyllic waterfront location. Elegantly restored rooms decorated in traditional style boast duck-down duvets, European linen & original artwork. Relax in the homely library after a delicious home-cooked breakfast. Central but a tranquil experience.”
