We loved the peace and quiet and being surrounded by the beautiful trees. The hotel is central and it was easy to access all the surrounding view sites. The electric blankets, gas fire place and heaters added the warmth we needed. The tea, coffee, and milk were welcoming addition. The units had all essential appliances.

The staff were exceptionally helpful after a particularly bad night with certain guests. The facilities were really good, and our self-catering unit was everything we needed.
