Enchanting Escape, A Romantic Interlude

warm staff forest walks

The staff greeted us with warmth. The location allowed for immediate access to amazing forest walks, offering a immersive experience. The swimming pool was warm. The cozy lounge became our favored evening retreat.

The room lacked air conditioning, and this made it slightly uncomfortable during warmer parts of the day. It needs to be fixed soon.

Rooms

Our room featured a comfortable king-size bed with soft linens, and two plush armchairs set by a window. The bathroom included complimentary toiletries and fluffy towels. A modern television was equipped with various channels.

Good Getaway

inviting water warm staff pet friendly travel delicious sausages

The swimming pool was a highlight for me, and the opening hours of 7 AM to 10 PM accommodated our schedule well. I found the water temperature warm and inviting. The staff greeted our dog warmly, lovely for our pet-friendly travel (our furry friend felt pampered indeed!). Breakfast had delicious sausages that I enjoyed.

The room decor seemed a little tired.
