    We booked the red suite and everything was perfect! The red mood is so cosy and well decorated. The bed is comfortable. Ideal for a lovely weekend as a couple.

    We liked absolutely everything. There's not much to add to the accolades other guests already wrote. The location is absolutely superb in the "centre of everything", the host was very communicative, supportive and kind, the room is fabulously...
