Divine meal and service

The dinner menu was incredible - fine dining at its best. The service was excellent and all the staff are very friendly. It was my 4th anniversary and I requested a romantic turndown with truffles which I paid R85 for. The result was a plate of truffles ontop of the mini bar. No romance what so ever. I raised this when I checked out and no comment was made. I felt like rose petals , candles could have gone a long way and would not pay the R85 again for the experience as there was none.

we had a wonderful two day break.... I found the bedroom to be a bit disappointing... no where to put valuables very little wardrobe space even if it was for two days... the shower in the bathroom was a death trap...plastic floor with no where to hold onto...

Lovely weekend getaway

Lovely place - really excellent meal and great value for money - outside shower rooms were lovely too. Only suggestion would be to put a mosquito pad in the rooms - aerosol was provided but there was a lot of mosquitoes. In general a lovely place with a very good chef.

It was OK at the reduced rate. I would certainly not pay the full rate. The place is a bit dated. Good food. Pleasant but not 5 star service.
