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.

What an amazing place to stay. Perfect location, friendly staff, amazing food and comfortable beds. We also went on a horseback ride to a nearby waterfall that was AMAZING. I can't say enough good things about this place. We would return in a heart beat. Oh and they have an amazing trampoline for kids to bounce on.

This was a unique experience and we loved viewing the cows while dining! The rooms are very rustic and in need of updating. Very dim lighting and bath was small and old. It was overpriced for the value. The staff very super friendly. The kids loved the trampoline snd play area.
