The host was excellent, going above and beyond with everything! Honestly one of the nicest people I've come across. I would highly recommend this place."

Please note that the only way to get there is by car and the most convenient option is to take advantage of the dinner offered. It should be noted that there is an opportunity to taste very good local wine on site."

A special shout out to the staff too who make this such a special place. Definitely make sure you order a picnic too! Thank you for a great stay"
