about provider

This is a family-run hotel and horse farm nestled among a river, lush forests and stunning mountain hills. It serves as an excellent base for various excursions, hiking and horseback riding adventures. While our room was tidy, we encountered a minor issue with the bathroom drain. The kitchen, managed by the owner's charming elderly mother, serves up delicious meals. However, for larger groups, it's advisable to inform them of your meal preferences in advance due to limited kitchen staff. The owner's daughter cares of the horses, ensuring they are well looked after. Guests can enjoy horseback riding lessons or leisurely rides, making it a memorable experience for both children and adults. All services can be paid for with a card.

about provider

It’s a really friendly place to visit. It's run by a family and Phillip, the owner, is super nice and flexible with our plans. His mom cooks PHE-NO-ME-NAL food, I could stay there just for the food (and the desserts 🤤). And his daughter Nadia takes care of the horses. Even though Nadia wasn't there when I went, the horses were well-behaved and seemed surprisingly fearless to dogs, cars, dirt bikes, etc! The family not only knows how to handle horses but also loves them. They even let some horses retire instead of working them until they can't anymore. I'm definitely going back! NOTE: the road to get there isn't paved, so it's better to drive a 4x4 car.

A delightful setting with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that we thoroughly enjoyed. This cozy family-run hotel made us feel at ease and right at home. The Wi-Fi connection was excellent, and all other amenities met our expectations for the price. The fact that my eleven-year-old daughter cried upon departure speaks volumes. THANKS
