Room fairly basic but had a fridge and was clean. Swimming pool v.good. Excellent place for winding down and reading. Garden peaceful and attractive. Food was great, excellent vegetable curries. Proper bread! Interesting boat trip on the river, lots of wildlife to see. WiFi fine.

Schön in einem kleinen Dorf ohne Durchgangsverkehr
Ideal für Ruhesuchende. Kein Verkehr, aber auch keine Action.
Baden kann man gut und die Liegestühle des Nachbarhotels kann man mitbenutzen.

Gute Lage für Beginn od. Ende einer Rundreise
Nur 2 Tage, aber sehr angenehm. Evtl. ist es günstiger Halbpension zu buchen.
