Great stay! There was a lovely walking trail along the grounds and each room was very clean and spacious. I liked that each room had its own sink, and single bathrooms and showers were very close by. Breakfast was fantastic. Would stay again!

Gavin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing property, very clean and feels like a 4 star hotel rather than a guest house. They bake their own home made bread for breakfast. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would :)
Tatiana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very clean accomodation, but noisy. Thin walls, but small rooms, good bed but small (140cm) Sink in the rooms very convenient. Nice small walk (2km?) around the proporty
Laura, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The perfect pitstop

Lovely warm welcome on arrival. Quickly checked in and offered a complementary coffee (we also bought a delicious homemade cookie). Left a bag of laundry with reception which was ready before 8am the next day. The walk around the grounds is beautiful. The breakfast is a nice variation from the typical, we really enjoyed it. Thanks to all the staff.
