This place was unique to stay at. Fun to stay on a farm property and have the restaurant right there. My son loved the playground. The walls are very thin so bring earplugs. Otherwise rooms are adorable!

Staff is lovely. Very picturesque setting. Ice cream was delicious especially the licorice flavor. Neighbors were noisy but once they finally settled in after midnight we had a good sleep. Cute farm dog. Chubby lab will take your food if you leave it outside by the door to keep cool. 😉

We stayed one night and were very happy with the accomodations. The front desk stayed 15 mins late to check us in and the view in the morning was gorgeous. It was muddy while we were there and so had to drag suitcases along wooden raised planks but it wasnt a big deal. Room was cozy & cute but very warm. We ended up opening windows to make it a good temperature for sleeping but it was no big deal. Fun to look in the barns in the morning and see the cows!

Great cabins but not soundproof

Cozy wooden cabins in a nice location and a delicious breakfast. One thing to note is that cabins are joined in a longer house and are thus not soundproof - we could hear our fellow travelers talking, snoring, using the bathroom etc. The farm is now building another series of such cabins - perhaps they can take note of this issue especially for bathrooms - not nice to have to listen to your neighbor urinating when you are enjoying a glass of prosecco after relaxing in a nearby spa (Fontana)

Property overall is great. Just not easily accessible from the parking area to where the rooms are. It's a bit confusing and there isn't an easy way to walk your luggage to the cabins. Otherwise, really enjoyed our stay.

I liked this property but I booked expecting it to be a full farm. There were cows which you could only see through windows, and a couple horses, but that's all I saw. The room was OK but the bathroom has seen better days and seemed a bit too worn for the amount of time the place has had hotel rooms. I knew the breakfast was a la carte but I feel, for what we were offered, it could have been included in the cost of the room. What I loved: the Aurora appeared right over the property! Very convenient on the Ring Road.
