The Estate was an easy and convenient option for a short stay in Mount Dora to visit family. The space was perfect for us with 2 beds and a kitchenette. It was quiet and pretty. Logistics of getting in were easy and the proprietors checked in with us to ensure everything was OK. Well-located! Recommend the nearby Highland Cafe for breakfast.

Enjoyed our stay at this quaint property. Didn't really mind that no staff is actually on-site; it's makes for a secluded, quiet stay. Room was large and well-appointed.
