Our family of 5 had a large and comfortable upstairs room at the guest house. It had a nice view of the countryside off of a small balcony. It slept 5 comfortably. The staff were pleasant and the breakfast was included and had a small variety of options that was a good size for the number of guests. The goats next door on the farm were very cute. Thank you for a lovely stay!

We had a lovely stay at the guesthouse starting with a very nice dinner at their restaurant. Our room was spacious with beds spread out in different areas. Our deck overlooked the goats and mountains. It is a beautiful place!

We had a relaxing and pleasant stay here. The rooms were comfortable and of decent size to place our luggage. I like the spacious and cosy sitting area with kitchenette. Breakfast was good and the breakfast area was nice. We took a little walk around the area and it is so peaceful. We would be happy to stay here a few days if visiting the area longer in future.

Easy to park, easy to check out. Front desk staff was super helpful as we arrived past their usual hours. She took the time to call me and make sure I had received the information for our independent check-in process. Beautiful property with a small garden and fresh breakfast.

Great stay! Very cute and clean, friendly staff. The only thing we would have preferred is if there were three separate beds instead of one double but we’re just being picky. Shared washrooms and showers were very nice and clean. Complimentary breakfast was awesome, nice variety of food! Would highly recommend and stay again.

Please note that there is not kichen just a microwave and a mini fridge for 16 rooms. We bought groceries before getting there and we couldn't use them. The picture on the accomodation shows an old kitchen which they not longer have. Nice breakfast and 20 min away from Vik.
