Would be a place to return to if breakfast facilities were better.
Pros:

Excellent restaurant at night with exceptional food quality. Comfortable beds and helpful staff.

Cons:

Breakfast was basic cereals fruit and yoghurt with pastries you need to heat up. If you were the last to breakfast there may not be much to choose from.
Cooked served breakfast only available at the weekend.

Pros:

Mooie ruime studio, sfeervol ingericht met zelfs een klein keukentje.

Cons:

Bed is echt klein, kort en smal. Ontbijt was naar onze beleving erg beperkt qua keuze en zeker in verhouding tot de prijs. En het kan pas vanaf 9.00 uur wat wij behoorlijk laat vinden.

Loved the "local" vibe - especially loved that dogs were welcome while we were there, and absolutely loved our sweet little room.

Cons:

Food was perhaps a little expensive - but delicious.

Pros:

Generally a great place to stay. Couldn't connect to WIFI but it wasn't that big a deal as I had plenty of data.
The restaurant was great, the staff were very friendly and attentive.
Having a drink in the garden was the perfect way to end a day of driving.
Kemnay is the most picturesque little village.
