The chalets provide discrete, comfortable rooms with nice additions, such as en-suite bathrooms and outside lounging areas where visitors can listen to the river. Our Two-Bedroom Executive Suites are great for families or parties since they include spacious living areas and more privacy.

Every room has basic facilities including free WiFi, daily cleaning, and a turn-down service. The design uses natural materials and earthy colours that match the scenery around it.
