The Lodge is located in a beautiful countryside environment. Food is great but costly, especially the main courses for lunch and dinner. The place offers good confort combined with nature. Staff are very kind and proactive, always greeting and asking how they can make your stay better. It offers everything to cover all your confort requirements and immediate needs.

A few specific items: the pool could be closer to the venue and larger; currently it feels like isolated from the overall feeling of the place. WiFi is okay for simple uses, e.g., in your phone, but not for intense work in your laptop that might require more bandwidth. Food prices are costly, especially for main courses, although the food itself is great cooked and very flavourful. The hotel airport transfer default cost is twice the amount other drivers offer; this could be negotiated and reduced.

The lodge has a charming vibe to it with its big couches, beautiful patio and gardens. The staff is very friendly and try to make you feel at home. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Thank you for a lovely stay!
