All the rooms are on the ground level, which makes it easy to come and go. Wonderful breakfast with many options, even dried fruit. We enjoyed seeing the horses. Downside is the halls are tile, which was extremely noisy for rolled suitcases. Even with earplugs, I did not sleep well. Hot tub was not open during convenient hours.
