We had a very pleasant three-night stay at The County Hotel. Natalie and Angela are wonderful hosts who made us feel very welcome. Our room was spotless and tastefully decorated, and both the breakfasts and dinner were excellent. The hotel’s central location was ideal, and we look forward to staying again.
