Florentine Manor

Mary and Cyril made our honeymoon stop feel really special. Their historic home is cozy, spotless, and clearly cared for with a lot of love. After reading its history, I could see how much it meant to Mary and how it had been her dream. We arrived stressed after getting lost on the way back from St. Andrews, hoping to stay near Alma. I called Mary to say we might be late, and she talked us through directions and suggested places where we might find food. The restaurants were shut, but we managed to get microwaveable food at the gas station. When we arrived, Mary had set out a place for us in the kitchen with dinnerware to heat it up, and made us much-needed tea. She'd also turned up the heat in our room so it would be warm. In the morning, she had fruit bowls and orange juice ready, then made coffee, French toast, and muffins. She shared useful tips about the area and where we were headed. Mary has such a sweet, grandmotherly manner, and it was lovely talking with her. Cyril just turned 85, and they both greeted us so warmly. We're grateful we got to spend a night of our honeymoon in their beautiful home. Thank you, Mary and Cyril, for your hospitality.
