We wanted to have a hassel free weekend, and Hilary and Peter did this for us by organising our flights, rental cars and recomending the dinning places etc. The room has magnificant seaview and my husband and I adore this country style building.

Hilary and Peter were excellent hosts. Our accommodation was first class - everything we could possibly have wanted was provided.

The rooms with separate entrances from the main house are... More

We stayed at Mt St Paul Estate using an online deal during a long weekend in October so this review is well and truly overdue. I would have loved another couple of days on the Island.
