Schöne Lodge mit super freundlichem Personal

9.0

Das Personal war sehr nett und hilfsbereit und hielt für jeden Gast sogar ein kleines Geschenk bereit. Der Kamin im Speisesaal lud zum Verweilen ein. Wir wurden nach einem sehr guten Dinner noch mit einer Gesangseinlage des Personals überrascht. Da die Nächte im Juli schon sehr kalt sind, wurde jedes Bett während des Dinners mit einer Wärmflasche ausgestattet. Super Service.

Beautiful property right off the main road.

Escorts to and from the rooms. Plenty of food for dinner. Was a buffet which was great. We left quite early the next day so they boxed up our breakfast for us. Nice outdoor area for playing cards.

− No on site lodging for drivers.

Es war eine ganz tolle Unterkunft, mit sehr sehr freundlichen, netten und zuvorkommenden Personal. Wir waren 4 Nächte dort und haben uns super wohl gefühlt. Das Frühstück und Dinner war jeden Tag richtig gut und die Lunchboxen immer individuell anders lecker zusammengestellt :).

Eco friendly place to stay.

10.0

It is wonderful place to stay at. Staff are friendly people always looking to help you. They provide hot water bottles for the cold nights as the tents can be quite cold. Food is delicious and the bread is home made.

− You can hear the noise from the neighbouring tent, which is ok during the day, but not nice to wake you up.
