Beautiful experience swimming in the lake and seeing the different species of monkeys around the site. Excellent value. ##### B E Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joanna 30 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good size cottage, beautiful view and relaxing stay overall. Nice atmosphere and pleasant staff. Hot water available. What we didnt like was that the food was bit hit and miss- we ordered same dinner on both nights and the first night the dinner was excellent but on the second night it was made totally different and not eatable. Also there was an ongoing construction noise which was a little bit annoying. ##### Joanna Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin 13 Jan 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The accommodation is in the middle of the nature and offers great viewing possibilities for monkeys, birds, various insects and more. It is quiet, rooms are spacious, food is delicious. Brenda did a good job and was ready to help every time. Keep in mind, it's a community location. You need a torch to walk in the dark. Some small suggestions: small towel in the room and soap to wash your hands ##### Martin Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Wolverhampton Race Course](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wolverhampton-Race-Course-Hotels.0-l6254451-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Malham Cove](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malham-Cove-Hotels.0-l6088169-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [AYLA by Ekati Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Corfu-Hotels-Ekati-Mare-Boutique-Resort-Suites.h30792742.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa With Private Pool in Front of the Sea - 20 meters from the sea.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skiathos-Hotels-Villa-With-Private-Pool-In-Front-Of-The-Sea-20-Meters-From-The-Sea.h32817996.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Greenwich Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greenwich-Village-New-York-Hotels.0-n110832-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hostels Ilford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ilford-Hostels.d6144799-aaHostels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [The Nook](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bude-Hotels-The-Nook.h33337149.Hotel-Information) > > [The White House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-White-House.h33525949.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Manhattan/Times Square South](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-ManhattanTimes-Square-South.h2211934.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton New York Midtown Fifth Ave](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-New-York-Midtown-Fifth-Avenue.h1469181.Hotel-Information) > > [The Glenburn Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rothesay-Hotels-The-Glenburn-Hotel.h13402955.Hotel-Information) > > [Catalonia Granada Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Granada-Hotels-Catalonia-Granada-Hotel.h561598.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Connecting Rooms in Lisbon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-Hotels-Hotel-With-Connecting-Rooms.0-0-d2080-thotelwithconnectingrooms.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Elche (ALC) to Málaga (AGP)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/alc/agp/alicante-to-malaga) > > [Flights from Newcastle-upon-Tyne (NCL) to Gatwick (LGW)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ncl/lgw/newcastle-to-london) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Seawell (BGI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/bgi/birmingham-to-bridgetown) > > [Flights from Southampton (SOU) to Paris (PAR-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sou/par/southampton-to-paris) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Fort Lauderdale Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Lauderdale.d601750.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Cabopino Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cabopino-Beach-Cabopino.d553248621594606319.Attraction) > > [Italy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/86/Italy) > > [St. Petersburg Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Petersburg.d180029.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Lublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lublin.dx5058) ---
