Owned and ran by a Welsh and Finnish couple whose enthusiasm for the area knows no boundaries, Lippizaner Lodge achieves the remarkable feat of ticking all of our boxes when it comes to accommodation. With six rooms, all based on a different theme from the owner’s travels around the world, each room is the very definition of comfort and class and pleasant surprises hide in each. The views out to Nanos Mountain may be relaxing enough in themselves, but the top floor relaxation room will take this to whole new levels. Any hotel ran by qualified masseuses is at an advantage, which is taken here, and there is also a Finnish sauna. Despite all this, the Lippizaner Lodge manages to keep a hostel feel, best exemplified with the collection of unique chessboards in the movie room. Throw in exemplary local knowledge of walking routes and much more, and you have an accommodation option that leaves no stone unturned.
