Ami from Finland
The castle with its surroundings was a sight to be seen, a very atmospheric and memorable place. Inside it was clean and the room was spacy. We had a two storey tower room, and there were views to four directions through the windows. The staff was friendly. The restaurant's food was great. The breakfast was good but not the vastest of selection.
