Smuk beliggenhed. Personalet var søde og hjælpsomme for det meste. Morgenmaden var super. Poolen skøn.

− Lidt ufremkommeligt terræn at komme til værelser og op til hovedbygningen. Men smukt. Det er en uskik at flere gæster bare lægger poolhåndklæder uden at bruge liggestole en stor del af dagen. Men det er ikke hotellets skyld.
