What an amazing place to stay. Perfect location, friendly staff, amazing food and comfortable beds. We also went on a horseback ride to a nearby waterfall that was AMAZING. I can't say enough good things about this place. We would return in a heart beat. Oh and they have an amazing trampoline for kids to bounce on.

This was a unique experience and we loved viewing the cows while dining! The rooms are very rustic and in need of updating. Very dim lighting and bath was small and old. It was overpriced for the value. The staff very super friendly. The kids loved the trampoline snd play area.

This was a great overnight stay on the Golden Circle. Our girls were able to relax and play, which was a nice break after a day of driving. The restaurant had great food with a local menu. We also enjoyed seeing the cows up close and enjoying some ice cream.

Lovely to watch the cows as we ate ice cream and during breakfast. Staff were great. Dine in option at the restaurant was appreciated and most convenient. Room itself was rustic. Door gap allowed cold air to enter room - not ideal. Shower was also difficult to operate - hot and cold not consistent. Rain shower head worked but hand held did not. Bed linens had waffle weave pattern which was rough and coarse on skin - great looking but not comfortable.

Lovely comfortable place.
Overall a lovely place. We were very comfortable. Staff friendly and lovely to see cows in barn while sitting in lower lounge. Some small issues especially the very basic shower cubicle. Some extra items in room would be useful such as a small tray for cups, a fridge, bigger bedside table.

The hotel is a ways off from the reception and restaurant. You’ll want to drive back and forth since it’s too cold and slippery to walk. We had a room on the view side and it was beautiful. The room was clean and spacious. It has floor heating which was nice but too hot at night. We turned it down before bed but it was still too hot and stuffy so we opened the window but it still wasn’t enough. The walls are also very thin. We could hear all our neighbors talking, using the shower, and awkward encounters. They woke us up early. The room is nice and reasonably priced but I wouldn’t stay again since I like my sleep. The food at the restaurant is delicious.
