The host, John, was exceptional and went out of his way to answer our questions about the history of the area. We loved sharing a nightcap with him and some of the other guests. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable.

    A bit out of the way, but it is a destination in itself. So serene. Large comfortablej rooms, air conditioned, no corridor noise. Absolutely loved it. Great sleep. After an excellent breakfast, walked the grounds (forest) and down to the water, enjoying the quiet ambience. Check out 11am allowed time to see this exceptional property. Well run, and great staff.

    Really good location - quiet, serene and safe, though bit far away from town. John is very kind and hospitable, he offered me lifts to town several times since I don’t drive. Excellent breakfast in the morning. Cozy and clean room to stay, feels like home. Really worth the price, can’r help recommending!!
