Excellent stay and fine dining

beautiful settingfriendly staffamazing foodthoughtful rooms
I enjoyed the very nice Sunday lunch . The place has a beautiful setting, with very friendly and helpful staff. Food was amazing, so I can not wait to return again for another pleasant experience. The rooms are thoughtfully decorated.
I found some dried hair from a previous guest on the shower wall, and mugs was dirty.

The evening food was so good, and the breakfast the next day was also fantastic. The chef seems to use local produce, and they make their own bread and butter. This approach ensures high-quality meals.

The room was well-equipped, I found everything I needed.
I was disappointed by the noise level. I could hear conversations from adjacent rooms. I also found hairs in the bathroom. The shower floor was quite slippery and posed a safety concern.
