Extraordinary property with a history. The grounds are amazing. The room was perfect — with a bathtub. Easy to get into Stockholm. Breakfast was absolutely superb. And all the staff were pleasant and helpful. Shout out to Nathalie for being a great host!

We liked the grounds and the old buildings. It was nice and peaceful to sit in the courtyard. The beds were comfy. There were lots of umbrellas available for guests which came in very handy during heavy downpours. Our rooms were next to each other as requested. Although we had to buy our own regular cow’s milk to have at breakfast, the selection of food at the breakfast buffet was quite good. I liked the rooibos chai tea and selection of juices. The wine we ordered from the wine list wasn’t in stock so the waiter recommended another wine, which we ordered and we enjoyed. There is plenty of free parking which is great if you have a car.

No normal milk at breakfast, only lactose free, soy and oat milk. We had two rooms. The decor in one of the rooms was awful, it was like poorly executed graffiti. Worst of all was how our children were left waiting over an hour for their food at dinner while my husband and I were given starters. The children had been asked by the waiter to choose between chicken or beef, both with fries. That was the only thing offered. My 10 year old was starting to cry with the hunger. After waiting an hour they brought him the wrong meal so he waited a further 12 minutes. He was eventually satisfied with his chicken and fries. Our other child was given steak, salad and cheese topped fries which wasn’t the “child friendly” option I had been promised. The steak was still very pink, he hadn’t even been asked how he likes steak cooked. All he was asked was whether he wanted beef or chicken so we didn’t even know it would be steak. When I booked I was told they could make something like spaghetti and meatballs, which would have been very acceptable. My husband and I had the “set menu”. The main course was supposed to have chicken and pork but it only had pork. I had planned on eating the chicken and leaving the pork but alas there was no chicken. Because they had sent the wrong meal for my 10 year old the kitchen gave both children a smaller version of the set menu dessert free of charge. But they didn’t like it. It was fresh strawberry and quark/yoghurt. We would never eat dinner here again. The breakfast was good except for the lack of milk. But, the breakfast buffet is laid out in a narrow corridor so it was hard to move around when there were other guests there too. Another thing I didn’t like was how the chairs/seats in the rooms were uncomfortable. Not to mention that the bathrooms had clear glass doors and curtains that never really fully covered the door no matter how many times I tried to position it. The toilets were directly behind the glass doors.
