Attended a wedding here this past weekend. Their servers were so nice and attentive, and their food was fab! If you get a chance to try their candied walnuts on your salad, do not say no, and maybe steal the ones from your neighbors plate too!!

Not much to see inside the mansion as they don’t have any old furniture and just a few new furniture. But the plants and flowers in the greenhouse are worth to visit.
