Qdos is primarily an art gallery with wonderful accommodation in five separate tree houses, not actually in trees, but with fantastic views as if they were. Wonderful staff with a lovely cheese platter and an excellent complimentary wine on arrival. Beautiful, comfortable room. Excellent food. We could live there for weeks.
