“Farnsworth House, with its obvious historic charm, is conveniently near the attractions of downtown Mount Dora; its beautiful rooms and communal dining could be ideal for couples or families. The made-to-order breakfasts are a nice touch, though some may find the lack of constant on-site staff a drawback. It's a distinctive stay, but perhaps not for everyone.”
