"Unforgettable stay, characterized by exceptional service in the misty mountains."

Our family's stay at the Waterwheel Country Retreat was an experience we will cherish for a lifetime. The chalet's dedication to exceptional service, cleanliness and comfort stood out, making our visit truly memorable. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. Ian was professional, attentive and went the extra mile to meet all our needs. Their quick and efficient service left us free to enjoy our holiday without any worries. The chalet was a haven of cleanliness. Every corner was clean, from the common areas to our private rooms. The kitchen was well equipped, and the inclusion of a dishwasher made meal cleanup a breeze, giving us more time to relax and enjoy our stay. The provision of essentials such as clean drinking water in the taps and a stable power supply at all times was commendable. The hot water was perfectly managed, which ensured that we could enjoy a hot shower at any time of the day. The chalet was also very well equipped, providing us with everything we needed, including enough wood for three barbecues a day as well as a fireplace! Nestled among beautiful nature, the chalet offered breathtaking views that served as a constant reminder of the beauty that surrounded us. The tranquil setting was perfect for stunning hikes through misty mountains to waterfalls, creating memories we will cherish. The children also caught and released some yellowfish in the streams. An unexpected pleasure was the company of two friendly border collie dogs who naturally accompanied our nature walk. Their presence added a unique charm to our outdoor adventures. But the highlight of the chalet was its location. Against a backdrop of spectacular views and a peaceful setting, the chalet gave us the opportunity to connect with nature while enjoying the comforts of a modern home. We would highly recommend this chalet to other families looking for a relaxing and memorable holiday. We can't wait to return!
