The room was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated. It had a really comfy bed. The views from the windows were great (a lovely sight to wake up to). The hosts were super friendly and accommodating and were very good too.
This was difficult as the location is a bit isolated. We needed to drive quite a distance to find alternative dining options.
