"Relaxation and Hospitality nestled in Santa Barba "

10.0

Amazing stay at this beautiful property. Incredible service and hospitality—from afternoon lemonade and iced tea with pastries to happy hour Hors d'oeuvres and wine, to evening cookies and tea to a deliciously cooked gourmet breakfast—we loved it all. Loved the wood burning fireplace in our cottage!

The property is definitely beautiful. The rooms are very clean. The hors d’oeuvres were lacking. Seemed like they were all premade frozen and they warmed them up. Also, for room service you had to pay $10 for them to walk across the yard.

The charm and beauty of the grounds, the friendly interaction with the staff, the deliciously satisfying breakfasts and heavy Hors d’Oeuvres and wine hours make your stay truly unique and relaxing. A stay at Simpson House Inn is a great escape from the daily grind. From the moment you walk up, you are enveloped in peace and tranquillity. Would love to come back.

Beautiful historic home and grounds. We stayed in the Pendle Cottage, the largest of the small cottages around the property. Very private and cozy, high quality. If you like B and B's, this place is for you!

Was very nice property with serene grounds. Offerings of complementary wine and hors d’oeuvres in the pm was enjoyable. Attention of all staff was critical to a fine stay. Pendle cottage was nice and free sodas was appreciated. Only slight ding was the shower was a bit slow to heat up and on the narrow side. Breakfast was excellent. A very pleasant stay!
