We had a great experience here with sisters and our mom. The hospitality was greater than any I have ever experienced. Rooms were very comfortable and had everything we could possibly need. The breakfast was incredible. Every single bite was mouth watering. I can’t wait to go back to Farmers Guesthouse!

The personal service was top notch! Elaine’s breakfasts were amazing, so delicious and beautifully served. We love how we got a personal call before we came to answer any questions and welcome us. We loved chatting with owners and they really cared about every detail. We enjoyed the afternoon wine, cheese and crackers out in the garden. You can easily walk downtown or drive just 1-2 minutes and park. You will love staying here!

The amenities were well thought out and appreciated, down to the shampoo, body wash, and conditioner. The wine was a very nice and unexpected touch. Every breakfast was fantastic, very flavorful, Elaine does a superb job ! Luke is always available to answer any questions and helped us out more than once. Mark is very friendly and informative, added a nice touch with the history of the property. We will definitely return.

We love the Farmers Guest House! Luke, Elaine and Mark are so welcoming and accommodating. The homemade breakfasts are fabulous! As are the cheese and crackers and cookies for an afternoon or evening snack. The suites are tastefully decorated, beds are extremely comfortable and clean.

Our experiences were 5-star from beginning to end. The family welcomed us with open arms and spoiled us with wine, snacks, and the beautifully crafted breakfasts (including plant based courses for the 2 vegans in our family). This is a guest house that goes above and beyond!

The absolute best BNB around. The FGH goes over the top meeting the needs of their guests. Could not have had a better time! The hosts were so pleasant, appreciative and friendly .Stayed in the cottage behind the building. So good, we booked another stay before we left! Thanks Luke, Elaine & Mark!
