The hotel grounds are beautiful. The indoor pool and hot tub were nice, the room was big and overall it was a good stay. The breakfast could benefit from more fresh fruit to make it healthier but it was OK.

We had a private cottage with two bedrooms, very comfortable. Extensive grounds, nature trail, and a restaurant made our short stay enjoyable.
