    Beautiful, relaxing stay with great location against the mountain.
    Delicious breakfast, and great range of options. Celia was a fantastic host and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Thank you so much Celia :) We booked rooms 4 & 5 and had our own private lounge and deck. Will definitely be back!
