The scenario couldn't have been better. Gorgeous piece of property, cozy rooms, great weather, and a wedding in the back garden. The aforementioned took place. It was following the ceremony of 10 people total that a shocker was introduced to us. The owners decided to charge us an additional $500 for using their property to facilitate the wedding. A wedding of which they were informed of well in advance. It was nothing elaborate. The bride/groom and 8 guest met in the garden and it took no more than 10 minutes. Furthermore, we were all paying guests occupying 5 rooms! Food was great, property was comfortable and relaxing, it's just unfortunate the new owners didn't demonstrate a good business practice when they informed us of the up-charge as we were toasting the happy couple. Hopefully they don't disappoint others so they can return for a second visit. After this experience we can't say that we will.
