Rating should be a 10. We had a wonderful stay! The décor is beautiful, with charming touches like chandeliers. Everything was spotless, from the neatly folded towels to the crisp, fresh bedding. I really appreciated the bodywash provided in a lovely container—especially since I had forgotten mine.
It was so easy to stay here with our pet, which made things even more relaxing. The view of the river is peaceful and the lawn is beautifully maintained.
What truly stood out was the service: despite booking just a minute before arrival at 18:30 on a Saturday, the manager welcomed us without hesitation. He even remembered to switch on the geyser—without us asking and offered us breakfast.
The mini fridge was thoughtfully stocked, and the free Wi-Fi was a great touch. All in all, a fantastic experience. Highly recommended.

No drinks or dessert were included. All in...

Then go for breakfast in the main house and again spot the view with your scrambled eggs. Maybe that's just all about the view!
You can reserve a large studio to make it your own even more , a peaceful corner, away from the road and...
