We stayed one night in the master suite which was fabulous! The rooms are beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The linens are exquisite! We were greeted with a happy hour upon arrival which was a super nice treat! We received a grand tour of this beautiful 1898 built mansion. Cynthia gave us a lot of the history of the home and furnishings. Breakfast was absolutely delicious! Eggs Benedict that can’t be beat along with many sides to compliment the main course. Cynthia was a joy to visit with and made our trip wonderful! We will return next time we are in the area!

We were lucky on the day in December when we visited we had the place all to ourselves and the Firefighters were there Decorating the Working Moving Antique Fire Engines for the Christmas Parade the following weekend and for Fire Engine Rides. Several of the Firefighters were there, very nice and interesting people. We got to watch a Video about the History of the Brenham Fire Department. They even opened up the Display for the earliest Horse Drawn Fire Device where there are only 3 of these type left. Very nice and kind Men. We got the grand tour. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

This is a great stop if you are in the Chappell Hill area. Small lavender farm with many plants in all sizes, some were bloomed in the purple color, other were still green. Small gift shop/store that sells all kinds of products made of lavender, soaps, essential oils, bath salts, etc. They even sell food made with lavender, we purchased the white chocolate, lemon, lavender fudge.....it was out of this world delicious. Great little stop, with super nice people working.
