A lovely and peaceful property, beautifully appointed and comfortable rooms with original local art work placed inside and out. Plenty of places to sit and enjoy the garden or inside the delightful living room of the main house. There is strong and uninterrupted WiFi throughout the property, plus a good choice for breakfast. The owners are very welcoming and helpful.

Home away from home
Lovely place, riana is a great host. Nice and close to town... A real home away from home. One small suggestion is that prices for goods in the room should include vat as the extra vat charge when checking out will surprise guests and bring some diasspointment at bill time.
