Very friendly staff. Shared bathrooms have enough room to provide a cubby for each room. Would be good option to provide so we aren’t carrying toiletries back and forth.
The hotel is a farm stay in a very quiet countryside. They provide earplugs in case you are a light sleeper and the neighing horses bother your sleep at night. The room and attached bath were clean and spacious. No amenities like a coffee machine but they provide free coffee at the restaurant!
This property is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! My morning view was breathtaking. The staff was very friendly. We arrived late and they left a note at the reception door with instructions just for us which made our check in smoother. Room neat and clean as well as the bathroom. I will definitively book this one again.
This place was great and even though there was only one bathroom in the unit, there was another full bathroom outside the main door that we also had access to.
Stayed in one of the little cabins. It worked great for us. Out in the country, very relaxing. Free coffee in the mornings. We weren't big fans of what we ate in the restaurant. I'd recommend eating in town.
