We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We found the whole experience relaxing welcoming and peaceful. Mr Van Prince was a true gentleman and pleasure to talk to. I would certainly be returning for another stay. I have no hesitation to recommend the property to anyone who likes to get away from it all. But it is not for young people expecting a lively night live.The only thing I would suggest is a hand rail in the shower and possibly a squeegee so you can clean the walls down after showering.But the detail that Mr Van Price designed into the conversation is amazing and is simperthetic to the building and my overall feedback is we loved it.
