We had a cozy suite upstairs with views of the mountains. The bed was so comfortable & the heating worked well including an electric blanket & towel rail. The kitchen downstairs with continental breakfast was also more than we expected. The staff were also lovely. The small town had 3 restaurants & a cafe. We would stay there again & would also recommend.

Staff were friendly and welcoming. Room was spacious and comfortable. Only problem was the high skylight that could not be covered so you got woken up at sunrise by the morning sun streaming in. I'd rather have a lie in on my holiday.
