"Wonderful stay! My husband and I were here celebrating our belated honeymoon and 1 year anniversary, and everything about this place exceeded our expectations. The staff was kind and helpful from the moment we checked in. The food, much of which is sourced from their own farm, was delightful. The grounds are immaculate! We thoroughly enjoyed walking the gardens and hiking through the hillside. The spa is top notch and I highly recommend purchasing one of the spa packages. It was a truly magical stay and an experience we will never forget."
