“Grea location and very comfortable”
Beautiful rural setting with great accommodation. The accommodation had everything we needed either for self catering or at the weekend dining in the restaraunt. Breakfasts were served every morning and were spot on. The staff were great and very helpful . Some great local walks are a silly accessed from the property. We would come back again!

“Great location, great facilities, amazing food!”
Breakfast was fantastic! Eggs and bacon available on order. But the real hit was the MEAT on the restaurant menu. I enjoyed the most delicious, tasty pork ribs I ever had! The Churrasco was also delicious! The wine was also very, VERY good!

“Good place to stay if you're driving”
We were out of season with a few guests at the property, yet the check-in, room, and breakfast were handled well. The property itself is good if you arrive by car, walking from the city is a bit of a chore and requires you taking a car road. The apartments are cozy with good heating, water pressure, and internet connection, they are a bit dated, but everything was clean and kept in good condition. Nice views on the sunrise from apartment windows as well. Breakfast was plentiful.

The spa was really good. The massages were exceptional. The restaurant food is of excellent quality, from prime steaks to pizzas, all good. Good choice of wines, too.The pool is large and plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas at no charge. The apartments each had their own parking space, at no extra cost!! The apartments are of a reasonable size. The bedroom is a good size with a comfortable bed. The bathroom shower is really good, plentiful hot water. The living space has a sofa and dining table for 4. There is a television. The fridge /freezer is good size. Everything necessary to spend time away is there. And outside garden for each lower apartment with a table and chairs. We stayed in apartment 9. It is two bedrooms but we were just 2 people, so one was locked.

The apartment, the spa, and the breakfast were great. Everything exceeded our expectations. We will definitively come back in the summer when the swimming pool is open. Special mention to Salva, he was super attentive and helpfull.
