Nice rooms, love the shower, comfortable beds, wifi is certainly acceptable, but no network sockets to plug into.Lacking an iron and ironing board. And I wished the tv was larger but it's only occasional use. Would have liked to see USB sockets by the bed. But plugs are suitable.Room was maintained daily, but no DND sign.Shop 20 minute walk away, 5 minute drive.

A very impressive resting place for anyone who wants to switch off. The area is fantastic, the hotel and the rooms are great. The café is a bit quaint, but very nice. You can immediately tell that the family business has invested a lot of blood, sweat and passion. Also an experience for horse lovers. The rooms were very modern and super clean. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Friendliness is the top priority here.

Very friendly staff, very clean rooms and a particularly good breakfast with fresh rolls etc. The forest is right on the doorstep for a short walk. We were here for work and felt very comfortable. There is an Italian restaurant downstairs that is open on Tuesdays and a snack bar that is very friendly and tasty. We'd love to come back

Nestled in a very relaxing location surrounded by trees natures and horses I recommend this place 100%. For nature lovers since it is quite remote, waking up with sounds of nature is amazing :) Room is spacious and recently renovated.Diner at the italian restaurant in front was delicious, typical Italian cuisine, Marcelo the owner is a great person to discuss with. Breakfast in the morning was a good buffet with everything needed to kick start the day :)

We landed here unplanned and were more than positively surprised. Great, modern rooms, very quiet, the breakfast was lovingly prepared and very generous. The service was very attentive and friendly. The cellar bar is open in the evening on some days. Price/performance absolutely fine. Thoroughly recommended. We were repeat offenders this year.
