Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered a good-sized room with modern bathroom amenities like a powerful rainfall shower and tea/coffee making facilities, but the second room had to be paid for separately. The service was welcoming and friendly, although there were difficulties reaching reception. The location, though beautiful and peaceful, could get busy at times. The dining experience was pleasant with great sausages, though the English breakfast was standard. The hotel had some beautiful grounds but the value for money was a bit lacking.
