Nice place!

Just stayed here one night, but a very nice place. The road from the main road to the place is tiny, so that takes some doing. It is also easy to miss. It is RIGHT after the cafe. Lovely grounds and house. The loft room has low ceilings so be careful when getting out of one of the beds. Overall, a very nice place.

Very Beautiful Home

We really enjoyed our stay the property was very beautiful. Great views and great indoor space as well as outside. All the necessities you could possibly need for a comfortable stay! She even provided complimentary shampoo until your able to purchase some. The only thing I wished was mentioned is the stairs for the top floor are steep and might not be good for older couples but we made it work. Overall very satisfied and if we go to Rio Caldo again we will stay again. Thank you!
