Overall lovely stay

Room was clean and staffs are extremely friendly. Parking space was small but plenty of off road parking. Food in the restaurant was delicious. There was a drone flying around which was a bit annoying though.

The location is stunning, with the lawns going down to the lake shore. So peaceful. The ten rooms are spacious and well-appointed and the restaurant is excellent. What more could you ask for?
