stellar experience!!!

varied buffetexcellent restaurantfurnished balcony

I was very impressed by the breakfast. there was a big, varied buffet. the balcony included a table and chairs. a kettle with teabags, coffee, milk, and sugar. What a bonus! the restaurant was excellent, i visited it all three nights of my stay.

the location requires travel down to the town by train or car to access amenities.
