We arrived to a lovely warm room (thermally heated) which is good in winter. Well set up, comfortable bed and spa bath.
View over the lake was what I wanted. We'll appointed. Stepped out of the property onto the lakeside walkway.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was very warm due to thermal heat under the foundations, perfect in mid winter a little too warm for late Sept. air con works well. Plumbing quite noisy from rooms close by.
Very happy with the service and the room, thank you. Very clean, modern decoration with everything you need. Great shower pressure too. Only slight negative was that we ordered a cooked breakfast and it arrived almost cold.
Otherwise loved it thank you!!
