Bright clean rooms, very well equipped kitchen with breakfast fixings provided, comfy lounge area and hot tub on back deck. Their horse farm is right across the road from the guesthouse and offers one and two hour rides through a beautiful area. I really enjoyed my ride and seeing all the fine horses in their stalls and out on pasture.. Guests receive a discount on rides too. A great place to stay, especially if you like horses!

We had a very good stay. The accommodation was clean, had a good kitchen and a cozy bedroom. A nice neighbor dog came by in the evening and morning to be cuddled by us :D We also really enjoyed the hot tub with a view of the snowy landscape and horses (There were problems with filling it, but our host quickly solved it)

Wished we had read the directions for the hot tub before it had gotten too late for us. We were able to enjoy the northern lights from just outside the back door. This location would be perfect for a small group of families.

We loved staying at this property! The quietness was lovely. The fridge was stocked for breakfast which was appreciated and the hot tub was wonderful after many days of hikes. The only small issue was trying to contact the property. I was not able to use my phone to call and the property does not respond to messages, but a wonderful place to stay and would highly recommend!

I love the decor and the "spa" like feel of the room and bathroom. Very clean, easy to find, quiet location. What I didn't like is the fancy blinds I couldn't figure out and had to place pillows in the window to block out the light. I also had an embarrassing morning with breakfast. Other guesthouses label the guesthouse food so you know what you can or cannot use. And it is understood if something is on a lower shelf or in a bag, it is not for general use. This guesthouse says yogurts, eggs, breads, etc available so I used that but it turned out to be someone else's food that was not labeled and was out in the middle of the refrigerator! This can easily be avoided with a label on the shelf for "guests".
