"we had the most wonderful stay at this hotel. the entire property is beautiful and very tranquil. we ate at the cellar bar multiple times, the food was great and staff helpful and friendly. there are multiple gorgeous lounge areas and it truly does feel like you’re a guest at someone’s home. the only small complaint we had in our room felt a little stuffy even using the provided fan, and we couldn’t figure out if there was a way to turn off the heater. overall we loved the stay and we will definitely return!"
