Review from Nov 2012:

Absolutely the best welcome we've had! Friendly and helpful service and willingness to go the extra mile, with a smile -thank you Lana! Loved the decor and interiors. Linen and towels were ample and luxurious. The bed was spacious and super comfy. Loved the pets, adds a very homely feel. All the small extra's go a long way, the stocked fridge, the lotions etc. Tranquil and peaceful surroundings with breathtaking views of the hills and overlooking the town. This was the perfect getaway from the city. I cannot fault anything at this establishment, we will definitely return!
  • Stayed November 2012, traveled as a couple
