It was a lovely stay. We loved the cats, but hadn’t seen them on booking (I’m usually highly allergic, although it matters the cat and the distance from where they usually rest). Everything about the staff and modern rooms and views were perfect!

Wir haben für 4 Nächte im Cottage Nr. 4 übernachtet. Das Cottage hat uns wirklich sehr gut gefallen, auch wenn der Jacuzzi nicht mehr vorhanden ist. Da es etwas abgelegener liegt als die anderen Cottages, hat man dort wirklich seine Privatsphäre und kann dort wirklich gut entspannen. Komplett verdunkeln kann man das Cottage leider nicht. Das Frühstück war auch sehr gut. Man kann sich von der Karte alles auswählen, was man mag. Zudem gibt es täglich ein wechselndes Special. Es fehlte wirklich an nichts. Das Personal, insbesondere Andrea, war wirklich hilfsbereit, freundlich und engagiert. Wir können das Guesthouse nur weiterempfehlen.

Um sonho!

Faltam palavras pra descrever esse lugar! Desde o primeiro momento a recepção e a atenção da Roxanne com a gente é algo raro de se ver. O lugar é um sonho, recebemos um upgrade de quarto, tudo limpo, cheiroso, com flores colhidas ali mesmo na fazenda para decorar nosso quarto. O café da manhã foi sensacional, realmente faltam palavras. Super recomendo!
