Summary: To say that the Gibson Inn is a most charming respite is an understatement. The main inn, additional buildings, pool, restaurant and bars are simply wonderful. From the warm welcome from the attentive and accommodating staff yo the spacious, well-appointed accommodation … we were extremely pleased with our stay. The property is beautifully restored and extremely well maintained. The word immaculate describes each piece of furniture, inside and out. We stayed in the main house; which is replete with well cared for brass throughout. Our room was spacious, comfortable and well appointed. The pool area is lovely. Poolside food and drink wonderful and convenient. If I could give 10 stars, I would. Cannot wait to return!!
