What guests say
9.5 / 10 · Exceptional on Booking.com, from 196 guest reviews
Apple Orchard Inn earns near-universal praise for its stunning, well-maintained grounds, made-to-order breakfasts, and exceptionally warm hosts, with guests repeatedly highlighting the peaceful rural atmosphere and clean, comfortable cottages. The handful of criticisms are minor — one guest found the air-conditioning unit prohibitively noisy and the room too warm, and another noted a lack of bedside furniture — but these are isolated concerns in an otherwise glowing set of reviews. Overall sentiment is overwhelmingly enthusiastic, with multiple guests expressing a desire to return.
