Wow, what a place. The interior design is fantastic, and it backs onto a beautiful lake, where you can enjoy excellent food and drinks and watch the sun set in peace. Truly a special place and we wished we could have stayed far longer than our one night! There are great little boutique shops around also, and two delicious breakfast options accessible if you pay for breakfast.
