I cant imagine anyone finishing a trip here without wanting to immediately plan another stay.

Very comfortable, relaxing, zen. The bed was like a cloud. Amazing view from the room and a quiet tranquil location. What could be improved: A little far from any restaurants/cafes. To go out for dinner need to drive 15 minutes out and it’s a dark windy road at night. Part of the experience is that it’s secluded so we get that. Breakfast was good...
