Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is a real gem! The rooms offer stunning views, the service is top-notch, and the location is just perfect. However, dining options could be improved, and the facilities are a bit lacking. Overall, a fantastic stay worth considering.
The hotel is situated in stunning surroundings, within beautiful grounds. The rooms offer a nice view and are well-appointed, but the price could be more budget-friendly. The service is top-notch with a warm welcome and attentive housekeeping. The dining options are satisfactory, but the French bread was a highlight. The facilities are modern and convenient.
A picturesque hotel nestled in gorgeous countryside with friendly staff and clean rooms, although the dining options were limited. The value for money is reasonable considering the beautiful surroundings and amenities provided.
