Wonderful experience at the Cheshire Cat! So much pride exhibited in this family owned and run business. Bed very comfortable, grounds lovely, lots of outdoor spaces which is important to me. And the breakfast and bonus choc chip cookies were delicious! Can’t wait to return to my new Go-to! Highly recommend!! Cheers, Debra

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was friendly and attentive. The room was very nice. I felt very safe...the safest for our whole vacation. It was within walking distance of downtown and we did do this for shopping and dinner. We were leaving early the next day and the staff asked if we would like to-go bags for breakfast. We really love that.
