Elegant dining starts with your choice of location: the rear patio under the pergola draped with wisteria and climbing roses, the morning room with a blazing fire, the formal dining room overlooking Townsend, or the covered front veranda at tree top level. We use different china, stemware, silver, and flower/candle arrangements each day of your stay. 
Our place settings compliment the menu down to the napkin folds. That is a story in itself…
- Breakfast continues with:
- Fresh ground coffee, herbal teas, and juice
- Fresh baked coffee cake or pastry
- Different fresh or baked fruit plates each morning
- And a different main course each morning

With notice prior to your arrival, picnic lunches are available. See the specials page for descriptions. For dinner you have an array of over 100 restaurants from 5 to 22 miles away. Or, again with prior notice, choose one of our two appetizer trays. You can see photos of these under the specials page. You are always welcome to bring snacks or feel free to bring your own steak and salad and help yourself to the grill on the back patio. When possbile, we use fresh herbs from 0ur garden or greenhouse.


One of our most popular features on this website is the recipe page. Two of our recipes have won awards. They are listed there, along with many of the other recipes that are in both of our B&B cookbooks.
