We had the most magical time

Review Submitted: September 22, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
Marouatte was the ideal venue for a family & friends reunion and we all had the most magical time. Thanks to Rose for her help with the pre-trip info and to Mark and Barbara our welcoming hosts for their assistance with the hog roast, wine delivery and tasting, to our chef who was an absolute star and exceeding all our expectations. We brought away some amazing memories, many thanks.
