  • "This stay was perfect for our group of 16 (main house + tower cabin). Absolutely stunning property — even better than the photos. Comfortable and spacious rooms. We particularly appreciated the well-stocked kitchen — we planned elaborate meals and sure enough the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and more. "
