Our stay was an experience in a class of its own. The restaurant impresses with a creative menu and excellently matched wines. Every course was a delight, especially the fresh, seasonal dishes.The service was outstanding – attentive, professional and always friendly. The waiters knew how to fulfill every wish without being intrusive.The hotel is also impressive: stylish rooms and a great view round off the stay. We would love to come back and highly recommend it!

Unfortunately the service was very unfriendly and I wasn't allowed to park my bike on site. It's a shame, the menu didn't look bad at all.

Ended up here by chance in the best weather. Great service, very good food. The knuckle was perfect and the roast left nothing to be desired.
