Well, about a two months late, we finally celebrated our anniversary last weekend on Friday, the 20th of Nov. I took it upon myself to make a reservation at a nice little country inn near Chapel Hill. My neighbor told me about this place and so I checked it out online. You could tell a lot from their website, but it was even better! It was so elegant and the grounds of the village made you feel as if you'd stepped into a posh country home decor magazine! I mentioned on our reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary and so they upgraded us to a suite instead of the standard room I had booked. We had a nice living room, bedroom and large bathroom with a screened in porch off the bath. We enjoyed tea time at 4:30 pm complete with tea sandwiches, truffles, treats and of course some fresh herb tea! Our dinner was a fabulous four course meal that was excellent. We had a gorgeous view of the gardens and countryside from our room...it was heaven! I just loved it! We were only gone for about 24 hours, but it was the most relaxed I'd been for 24 hours straight in over a year. Totally worth it!
Julio sitting in the living room of our suite! They left us chocolate truffles and a small gift card of spending money (to redeem at one of their boutique shops) for our anniversary. I was so impressed...everything was included at this place. In room snacks, drinks, tea and treats, breakfast and the extras I just mentioned. The only thing that was not included in the room was our dinner. I could have stayed there for a whole week! Loved it!
We used their bikes and took a nice ride around the housing development that surrounded the village. We visited the "Beltie" Cows that they are famous for. :)
