Visual feast !!! is just a part of entire impression. This place is delivering amazing experience as well as creating unforgetable memories. Get your senses ready … Telling too much may spoil a mysterious charakter of this „rabbit hole”. „Alice, You have to decide, whether to get in or not”.

Lovely hotel and lovely conference rooms! Each room in the castle has its own personality, and this is refreshing to experience! Animals all around and the perfect place to host an offsite! Lovely staff and food as well

Best experience ever! The hotel is one off a kind, the decor and design off every room is unique, where ever you look something new catches the eye. The restaurant and food was great both dinner and breakfast

Meal was Good but loads of salt flakes on most things which was a shame as otherwise would have been good food. Place really quirky but I felt the owners were forcing their ‘ cool dream’ on customers. Breakfast a choice of 6 things that were fatty and sugary mostly, bar melon. Lack of choice and my wife left hungry as she couldn’t eat anything but the melon. Beds comfy though which was good .

Temple of Edfu

The Temple of Edfu is one of the best preserved ancient shrines in Egypt. It was built in the Ptolemaic Kingdom between 237 and 57 BC.

Edfu was one of several temples built during the Ptolemaic Kingdom, including the Dendera Temple complex, Esna, the Temple of Kom Ombo, and Philae. Its size reflects the relative prosperity of the time. The present temple initially consisted of a pillared hall, two transverse halls, and a barque sanctuary surrounded by chapels. The building was started during the reign of Ptolemy III Euergetes and completed in 57 BC under Ptolemy XII Auletes. It was built on the site of an earlier, smaller temple also dedicated to Horus, although the previous structure was oriented east–west rather than north–south as in the present site.
