I had a great time at the Orchard. I needed a place with no stairs and an enclosed garden for my doggies and it was exactly as per pictures. The room has anything you need. I will definitely stay there again if I need too.

Wunderschöne Unterkunft mitten in der Natur. Sauber, gut ausgestattet! Ein kleines Paradies! Lediglich das WLAN ist schwach und man sollte keine Angst vor großen Spinnen haben 😅

Wir waren super zufrieden mit der Unterkunft! Die Küche war mehr als nur gut ausgestattet und auch der kleine Garten ist super süß! Die Farm ist total ruhig und mitten in der Natur. Auch der Pool mit Ausblick auf den See ist sehr schön. Die Katzen und Hühner die auf der Farm rumlaufen sind sehr toll!
Wir können sie Unterkunft nur empfehlen

A beautiful and super well managed accommodation in a peaceful location. Absolutely loved staying there with my boyfriend and we didn't want to leave.

We had a lovely stay on the farm. The evenings by the fireplace were cozy, and the peaceful, quiet mornings were a real highlight. The property offers thoughtful extras like firewood and fire starters, and even services such as laundry and car washing (for a reasonable fee), which we found very convenient during our stay.
There are just two things future guests might want to know in advance:
1. For those who aren’t fans of spiders, we did encounter a few and had to remove about six during our stay.
2. The air conditioning turns off between midnight and 6 a.m. because the external power supply to the cottage is cut during those hours. While it wasn’t an issue for us since the temperature was comfortable, it’s something that would have been good to know beforehand.
Overall, we enjoyed the experience and appreciated the effort put into making the stay comfortable and relaxing!
