The property is a outdoorsy lodge style with log walls and a nice fireplace always running in the main lodge. The rooms were relatively large, each with a patio and balcony and a private sliding glass door. I stayed in the main lodge, which was nice, but there are also cabins. The staff was attentive, breakfast was good ( a full English breakfast with all the trimmings), as well as fruit, juices, yogurt and pastries. The hotel is about 2 km from the main village. I'd stay there again, I was there for 2 nights.

Location was convenient. Nice communal sitting area with fire and snooker table and selection of dvds you could borrow. We had a large suite, it was quiet if a little dated with drafty windows and it needed a new mattress as was very soft and roll together! Breakfast was included with modest buffet selection of food plus choice of cooked egg.

Wonderful stay!
A marvelous hotel! Comfortable, even luxurious, and close to town without being caught up in the hustle and bustle of New Year’s Eve. Lounge area is very nice and breakfast was good. Only issue at all was that the WiFi connection was at best inconsistent, but for us that was a very small matter! A great stay!
