I really liked everything in this guest farm. the surroundings were amazing, the room very big and spacious and very comfortable, the food was fantastic. The staff was so kind and helpful, I rarely found that kindness in the places I’ve been. the night I checked in we were very late, but when we arrived Jason, from the reception, had managed to make us find in our room a tray with a complete dinner, even if the kitchen was already closed. I hope I will be back one day.
