We arrived at Summerhill Bungalow in pouring rain, which didn't stop throughout our two night stay. It was actually a blessing as my husband and I just stayed in enjoying the lovely calm atmosphere of this historic house, playing pool, reading and generally relaxing and enjoying the peace. Most of all, Shimal, Raoul and the team made us feel so welcome. They looked after us so well throughout our stay, even putting hot water bottles in the bed when the evenings got chilly. The food was delicious, much of it based on produce and herbs from their own garden.

Beautiful location. Brand new property with amazing staff. Chef Kalum made some of my favorite dishes. Rooms are modern and comfortable. They provide all amenities. Though it's a new place, very well managed and excellent staff.

Decor exactly like the photos, felt like I was staying in a cosy but luxurious ski resort! And the staff was exceptional with their kindness and hospitality. They even upgraded our room without request! And the generous breakfast portions were to die for! I will be returning and recommending this place to all family and friends.
