The property is beautiful and very clean. The best part is the friendly and helpful staff. The two concierge and the kitchen staff was so friendly, they made us feel like family. We had car trouble and they all jumped in to help. Amazing!

I was here for a short break to decompress and no place could be better for that. It’s so relaxing. The food was amazing as were the incredible showers. Most of what’s prepared comes from the farm you walk through all throughout the property. I loved hanging around in the hammocks reading, working out in the Big central pavilion with views of the countryside in the distance, walking along the river and going under the small waterfalls. I’m not a camping guy at all and I was thrilled here - this was truly one of the best hotels I’ve ever been to. They make a mad coffee too!
