They had a retreat going on, so no services, a long way to a town with restaurants. Not a good choice for a quick overnight stay.

The property was beautiful and had such a great time while we were there, really looking forward to staying again. Only comment would be on the cleanliness of the bathroom as the shower had water marks and soap scum all over the glass, bath hadn’t been cleaned as there were hairs throughout and the toilet and basin had stains. Laura the general manager is so lovely and accommodating so thank you for everything my family had a wonderful time

Was told that we could not use the pool or sauna as a women's weight loss retreat was on. Parking was poor. Can't fault the chalet other than no cooktop available.

The spa has beautiful grounds. Each room has a separate cottage that was impeccably clean and comfortable. The people were most helpful and welcoming. We wish that we could have stayed longer. I highly recommend staying here.
