My stay at the Country House was a mix of cozy charm and minor inconveniences. The rooms had a lovely ambience but were a bit hot at night. They seemed a little tired, lacking heating in the bathroom, yet were still nicely appointed and clean. The service was top-notch, with incredibly friendly and accommodating staff making my visit special. The location was perfect for dog owners or nature lovers with beautiful views all around. Dining was a delightful experience, with excellent service and delicious food. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience.

However, there was a strange noise that persisted through the night, which was a bit disturbing.
