    Interesting stay in an old castle, on a hill surrounded by trees. Lovely courtyard area with restaurant. Breakfast was good, coffee was great!

    We loved the remote location, staying at the top of a tower (despite all the steps!), it’s quirky and different and we’ll worth it for a few nights.

    It's a castle!!! Seriously awesome. No in all seriousness, the owners have done a great job renovating this gem. Our room was massive, not sure if we were upgraded but there was space to sleep 10 in our suite. A full bathroom with extra toilet...
