There are even a few rooms where you can snuggle up next to a fireplace or relax in a jacuzzi for some much-needed R&R. Each of our hotel rooms have coffee makers, mini fridges, smart TVs and complimentary high-speed internet.
If you want a campier vibe, our 38 cottages are one or two-bedroom units that are fully furnished, with separate living room and bedroom(s). All have coffee makers, microwaves and fridges with two-bedrooms also having a two-burner cooktop.
