    Lovely atmosphere and location. All good, it was a very old house with lots of character.

    The room was absolutely fantastic, exuding a charming old cottage vibe that made the stay feel cozy and nostalgic. The highlight, however, was the breathtaking view of the lake and garden from the window—a truly picturesque scene that added so...
