Overall a very enjoyable stay, a venue with huge character
Pros:

The age and character, it felt very genuine
Incredible views
The good size pool
Very tasty food, good portions
Friendly and helpful staff, especially Arianna on reception and the Antonio in the restaurant area.

Cons:

The rooms could do with a little update whilst maintaining the character. A working shower head for example, although this was fixed on the last day. And a more modern hairdryer, I’ve not seen such an old fashioned one for years. Air con very noisy.
It was shame we couldn’t walk into the nearest village , and official taxis non existent and those available expensive.
The use of the pool by the locals did compromise our enjoyment. Noisy aerobics, reduce sunbeds availablilty

Der Poll der in den Bildern angepriesen ist war zugedeckt. Umgebung nicht gepflegt.

In der Hauptsaison sicher empfehlenswert, in der Nebensaison nicht.
Pros:

Die Lage in den Weinbergen ist sehr schön, Parkplatz direkt am Hotel. Das Frühstück war sehr gut.

Cons:

In der Beschreibung wird das Restaurant beworben, nur war es leider geschlossen. Dies wurde uns aber erst später mitgeteilt, auf Nachfrage nach einer Tischreservierung. Der explizit gezeigte und beworbene Pool war ebenfalls nicht in Betrieb. Der Hinweis auf Öffnung erst zur Hauptsaison ist nirgendwo ersichtlich und wäre aus Fairnessgründen absolut notwendig, ebenso wie der Hinweis auf die Öffnungszeiten des Restaurants. Ein Grund für unsere Buchung außerhalb und abgelegen war das Abendessen im Restaurant auf einem Weingut, um danach eben nicht mehr fahren zu müssen. Es gab zwar Fliegengitter vor den Fenstern, aber leider mit großen Löchern. Das Hotel wirbt explizit mit Ruhe, aber da unsere Tür zum Innenhof eine alte Holztür war, zwar schön anzusehen, aber leider nicht schalldicht, hört man jedes Wort von draußen.

We would love to come back! Thank you!
Pros:

We arrived to a beautiful property in the middle of wine country, surrounded by nature. The property around the hotel is a bit run down, a small playground and tennis courts, but my kids still enjoyed the merry go round. Unfortunately, the pool was not open, but it looked like it would have been really nice. The staff were SO friendly! Dinner, breakfast, and our room were amazing with wonderful views of the countryside and the lake. We LOVED it here. Thank you!
