    The breakfast was wonderful, they make plenty of meals. We stayed in a double room which was luxury and modern. The location was good and perfect, in walking distance from a tram station, so it was really easy to travel around: )

    Everything was neat and tidy with thoughtful touches. Erna, the owner, goes the extra mile and treats everyone with respect and friendliness. The rescued cats wandering around added a special charm to the lovely home. The rooms were stunning and the garden was like an Eden. Every little detail was considered, from fresh flowers on the nightstand to a rope basket with fresh towels by the pool. The breakfast, freshly made by Edna, was delicious. The location was perfect for exploring the downtown area and the WineTram experience.

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    We had an amazing stay at The Cottage! Guido and Erna were excellent hosts, providing helpful information without being intrusive. The cottage itself is set in a beautiful garden with a refreshing pool. The breakfast served in the garden was outstanding, with a 5-star quality and a picturesque setting. Erna even accommodated dietary restrictions with alternative options. The attention to detail, including chilled wine in the fridge, made us feel truly at home. The tasteful and elegant decor added to the overall experience. We highly recommend The Cottage, a real gem in a quiet yet convenient location.

    Hard to think of anything 🤔

    The rooms were beautifully decorated and located in a stunning garden. Watching the sunset from there was a real treat. The big bed was very comfortable and the decor added a lovely touch. The short walk to the pretty town was very convenient. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and gave us great advice about the area. They even lent us a board game to enjoy. The breakfast served was scrumptious, fresh, and comparable to top-class hotels.
