Location was great. Evening meal and breakfast was excellent

Cons:

The mattress was really uncomfortable and we did not have a great night. There was also no where to hang the wet towels.

Klasse Erfahrung.
Pros:

Herrlich. Das Essen hervorragend und nettes Personal. Der Ort ist sowas von schön, man weiß gar nicht, wo man zuerst hinschauen soll. Auch das Herrenhaus lohnt sich anzuschauen

Cons:

Alles gut
