Beautiful place with warm atmosphere. Friendly staff. We were very early and they were very accommodating. Toilets clean and beautiful decor. Restaurant felt comfortable and had relaxing feel to it. Lovely food, slightly expensive for a plate of pasta but was delicious. We had a relaxing meal in beautiful surroundings. We will definitely go back with friends and family for special occasions.
