Reviews
We had drinks in the lounge with a roaring fire and there were boardgames to play.
The head-chef is such a great human. Spent time talking to our family about the wildlife and accommodated to our daughters on food.
The rooms were well appointed. Slightly warm for our taste but was easily adjustable.
The surrounding grounds are well kept, with great walking paths. There are bikes on site as well. There is a great pool (1.40) that is heated to 28 degrees. We didn't swim in it as there was a storm, but we would have gladly done so otherwise. The poolhouse allows for changing right next to the pool and in the summer months they serve light snacks there as well.
We will definitely come back!
Beautiful memories in an amazing spot
The service and dinner was incredible a 10/10
Special thanks to Chef Dennis, who went out of his way to make our girls feel welcome and created a truly memorable experience for them. Also to Rita, who took such great care of us at dinner—she made each evening feel special.
The property itself is beautiful, nestled in nature and perfect for a relaxing getaway. While the dining experience leans more towards the formal side, the staff were warm and accommodating, especially considering we had two young kids with us. All three dinners were excellent.
The only minor downside was that the AC unit wasn’t working, but with the cool spring nights, it didn’t really affect our stay.
All in all, a lovely experience that exceeded our expectations—especially thanks to the people who made it feel like home.
We experienced warm hospitality.
The 6-course meal was truly special; prepared with love and great eye for detail.
If you’re looking for a special experience and you’ve got some money to spend, then you should consider this place.
