Absolutely incredible in every way. Such a special place in both aesthetic and service. The team and facilities were top notch. They truly think of everything. Breakfast is the stuff of dreams!

Hot water ran out pretty fast in our room… but, no matter as the wood fired hot tub was a nice alternative!

This is possibly the best boutique hotel I have ever stayed at. Cute, intimate, welcoming and amazing service. We enjoyed our private suite and pool. Exceptional breakfast- evening drinks. The welcome bubbly was great. Perfectly located, close to the Main Street, restaurants and wineries.

Everything was truly amazing
