What guests say
9.5 / 10 · Exceptional on Booking.com, from 183 guest reviews
Hawks House Inn earns consistently high marks for its warm, hands-on host, beautifully kept gardens, and relaxed home-away-from-home feel at strong value. The main recurring criticism is that breakfast is minimal — essentially banana bread and coffee — leaving some guests wanting more variety. Overall guest sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with most visitors eager to return.
