i found the location quiet, it was a perfect retreat. the breakfast offered a great start to my days with fresh ingredients. the room was clean, it was well-kept, though the decor was a bit simple. the staff were friendly, they ensured i had all i needed.
the bathroom fixtures showed slight wear, though everything functioned properly! the lighting could have been a bit brighter in certain areas of the room, though it was adequate.

the breakfast room had views of the garden and mountains. morag and cara prepared breakfast with love. there was a good selection of cereals, fruit, and yoghurt on offer. jugs of orange juice and milk were on the table, a nice touch!!!
the decor is slightly dated.
