Positive: Very nice guesthouse; great breakfast and a lovely lobby area

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The room was very nice with its private bathroom. Everything was very clean. The free breakfast was simple (cold spread) but had everything we wanted (eggs, veggies, yogurt etc.). The best thing is the farm dog called Saga. She comes to greet you and play with you, and goes hiking with you! There's a nice hiking track just behind the farm.
Negative: Nothing
Summary: It was an excellent stay

Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The guesthouse was overall fine – the rooms were clean and the stay was pleasant. However, the price is far too high for what is offered. Considering the standard and amenities, about half the rate would have been reasonable. Anyone looking for good value for money should keep this in mind when booking.
