Surrounded by stunning countryside, this estate has a hike (“the International Appalachian Trail) just 900 meters away. The staff were incredibly polished and on top of everything. Breakfast was a stunner, with made-to-order options in addition to an extensive buffet of fresh foods and eggs. There is NO air conditioning, but the windows open quite high and most rooms have a fan (if yours doesn’t just ask, it makes a big difference)! Shea is part of concierge staff and so knowledgeable, interested and enthused, it is contagious. Dylan helped to deliver our luggage to the room and was so observant; immediately had a few missing items delivered to the room. Dinner at Cedar’s was mediocre, but the breakfasts there are to die for. Note: the pool is attached to the spa. If you wish to swim, a bathing cap is required and can be purchased for 3 Euros. The hydrospa, sauna and steam room are available whether you book spa services or not. Love the Espa products in the room and at the spa.

This is the most beautiful hotel. Our room was exquisite. The staff and food was phenomenal. The only small flaw was our waiter at dinner was pretty inattentive. Even so, I’d highly recommend this property.

Luxurious stay at excellent Hotel
Arrived in the afternoon and it was raining and were met at the door by a Porter with an umbrella and they unloaded the car and parked it. Room was not quite ready so sat in lounge with fire blazing until it was. Our room in the old stables was lovely, spacious and had excellent modern bathroom. Gardens around the hotel looked beautiful, but as was raining did not get to explore too much. Dinner and breakfast in the restaurant were excellent and staff friendly. I would recommend this hotel
