My stay at the Bayberry was quite enjoyable, but it wasn't without its hiccups. The room was cozy and beautifully decorated, complete with a jacuzzi, which was a real treat. However, the breakfast had its low points, with a few miss steps in quality that I wasn't expecting. Overall, I appreciated the warm hospitality and beautiful surroundings, but some aspects left room for improvement.

My stay at The Bayberry was a good experience! The renovation was beautifully done, blending antique charm with modern touches. The breakfast was really good, featuring a made-to-order menu that was a standout part of my mornings.
