    Beautiful buildings and surrounding gardens. Rooms were beautifully decorated and I keeping with the aesthetic of the buildings. Nice location - but down a long dirt road. So would not be ideal for little hire car.

    Seclusion, privacy and just exceptionally beautiful location and private grounds/gardens.
  • Rachael

    Beautiful gardens, private cottages beautifully designed. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Good communication by the property owner and only a short drive into the main town.
