Unique and historical property. Comfortable and friendly owners, would be my first choice to stay here again when travelling through the area.

I had a great stay. The building has a lot of history and the grounds are amazing. There is a swimming pool which is large enough to do laps. The staff are friendly and my room was exceptionally clean.

What a delightful and enchanting property this is. My friend and I stayed there for the first time this year and we plan on going back. I want to share it with my whole family! Hopefully I can make that happen.

The rooms was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The grounds surrounding the Mansion were absolutely amazing. The history of the place alone was worth the booking. Had a nice swim in the pool as well. One of the coolest places i have ever stayed at.

This property was amazing! The mansion was so beautiful and the owners were the most hospitable people we have ever encountered! The grounds were so beautiful and peaceful. The history of mansion was amazing, each room had information and the decor was beautiful!

Staff went out of the way to help, when I mistakenly thought I had lost some earrings after leaving the hotel. The actual hotel is full of interesting history of the area. I will definitely be back
Margaret, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

My husband and I stayed just one night. The property obviously has so much history and character. The grounds are so beautiful. I can see it being an incredible place for weddings. The property is very clean and we had everything we needed. We slept very well. Unfortunately we couldn’t use the pool and tennis court like we wanted. September weather can be tricky for the pool with the leaves falling all the time. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. Thank you very much.

Lorraine, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Blaylock mansion was such a unique and cool accommodation to stay at. It is conveniently located just 10 min away from the fun Baker street shopping hub but far enough away to enjoy the quiet lake side view. The hosts were incredibly hospitable and there was always great coffee ready with fresh fruit in the morning. The room was clean and quiet. Highly recommend staying here!

Like you own Downton Abbey for a couple of nights. But in the mountains!!!

10/10 Exceptional

It has one of the most beautiful gardens I've ever seen. Designed over years. There are hidden treasures all through it. The Mansion itself is exactly what you would expect from an ultra Rich family from 100 plus years ago. I definitely will be staying again
Big, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely loved it. We explored the Gardens and enjoyed the pathways around the maze of beautiful plants and water features. We spent time swimming in the huge outdoor pool and playing games and billiards in the basement. The room was very clean and quiet and the owners and staff are welcoming. Highly recommend.

6/10 Good

If you’re all about staying where King Charles once visited, this is the place for you. But we didn’t find it good value for our travel dollar. There are no services nearby, traffic noise is brutal lakeside, and the for-an-extra-fee breakfast is not always available and not clear when it is offered either. The outdoor pool is unheated, so unusable. There’s no air conditioning, no in-room amenities (fridge, microwave, tv, etc), electrical outlets need to be replaced before they cause a fire, window screens don’t fit properly and the spiders have taken over. The grounds are lovely and its history intriguing but this once stately home now needs a facelift - and the property details need to be more accurately represented as to what it has become. It has potential but at best it’s a 3/5.
Karma, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The setting and furnishings were appealing and morning coffee was refreshing. The bed was very comfortable. The Presidential Suite is large but the TV and ceiling fan did not work. Could get only cold water in the shower stall. Hot water was available in the tub shower. The pool was empty and needing work. There was no room service. Pricey for the obvious issues and lack of service.
