Shire Suite at the White Lotus Eco Spa Retreat

Positive: La casa è immersa nel bosco. Una vera oasi di tranquillità Negative: Informazioni insufficienti per l'accoglienza. Ci è sembrato che ci fosse un locale comune per la colazione in un altro edificio, ma non abbiamo trovato indicazioni per l'utilizzo ed abbiamo avuto il sospetto che non fosse destinato anche a noi

I will return in spring and with a rented Jeep Positive: This is a beautiful property with genuinely kind people. I loved the peaceful atmosphere, the barn setup, and especially the indoor swing. The staff and other guests were wonderful — someone even brought me birthday pancakes and sang to me, which meant a lot. That said, winter travelers need to know that the access conditions can be extremely challenging. When I first tried to enter the property, I got stuck on the icy road leading to the Hobbit House and ended up crying in my car because I couldn’t move forward or backward. A very kind gentleman with a bulldozer came to my rescue — he literally cleared the path behind me and in front of me, bulldozing nearly a mile of frozen ground so I could safely get through. I cannot overstate how grateful I was in that moment. Then, when I got stuck a second time trying to reach my actual suite, the manager’s partner, Victoria, came out to help. She is absolutely lovely — she saw how done I was (I was about in tears again) and helped guide my car over the ice patch so I could finally get settled. Everyone was so kind and patient with me. Once I was in the Shire Suite (inside the barn), I realized I couldn’t safely walk the gravel paths because the snow had turned into hard, slippery ice. The trails were completely iced over, so exploring the grounds wasn’t possible. When it was time to leave, I got stuck twice more, and another guest with a truck had to guide me and help me get enough momentum to reach the main road. If you are visiting in winter, you will absolutely need one of the following: • a 4WD or AWD vehicle • top‑tier winter tires • or snow chains A standard car is not enough for these conditions, even if you’re an experienced driver. You may find yourself unable to leave your cabin or the property without assistance. One more important note: If you book through Booking.com, the “Shire Suite” is the one located inside the barn. The “Hobbit House” is a separate building.

Excelente lugar!
