Such a beautiful old building that the owners are taking very good care of. The rooms were plush but small. The majority of the staff bent over backwards to help us and show us around. Recommend staying here for the history of the building.

Exceptional. We cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay at Country Villa Estate. Danny and Mabel were fabulous hosts from the moment we arrived. We were met with a warm welcome before being shown to our very comfortable room which was beautifully decorated and with everything we needed for our stay. Breakfast was superb with different options each day. Mabel is a true artist with her delicious breakfast offerings. Beautiful gardens, comfortable spaces to relax, a truly unique experience.

Truly one of my most magical hotel stays ever. My private cottage was beautiful and perfect, the grounds with roaming sheep and donkeys were so lovely and peaceful, the lodge was beautiful and the staff was incredible. The lake view is stunning. Very nice made to order breakfast every morning and great location that was just a few minutes away from most of the attractions I visited. Thank you so much for a perfect visit--I'd love to come back!
