We'll done.

We took the parents away and they were able to have their own privacy with a luxurious bedroom with large en suite and still able to spend quality time with us in the communal areas of the apartment and in the mansion grounds where we enjoyed games. The apartment was well equipped, comfortable, clean and warm. We were greeted by friendly staff and they helped with any issues which we had (although we didnât have many issues as everything was so good). The children felt like they were in a fairytale setting, staying at such a fabulous mansion. The bed was comfortable, there was no expense spared in the quality of furniture and furnishings. I would definitely recommend this place and look forward to booking again to stay here in the future. A fantastic place to stay!

The apartment was very spacious, spotlessly clean and well equipped.
