We really enjoyed our stay. The room was amazing. The views were fantastic. Everything about the place just shone. Then we were surprised with this amazing breakfast. Totally a 5 Star Place. I would stay there again and again. If I have any criticism at all is the road is gravel to get to the driveway and the driveway signs are not clearly marked. They’re very rustic, considering how the rest of the hotel is it was surprising. However, that should not deter anyone that hotel was fantastic!

The restaurant food was not as advertised. If you have a hotel that is so far from town then you must have top quality food in your restaurant. I ordered falafel sliders and received a big burger bun with mush in the centre and greasy chips. The bartender was great and very accommodating, he makes a delicious Old Fashion. The rooms and the hotel were very warm and the restaurant was hot! Get your air conditioning sorted if you’re asking guests to keep doors and windows closed. Turn off the gas in the fireplaces, it’s February.

Dated decor and lackluster maintenance. Eoom with spa had cobwebs in corner, 2 leaks on ceiling which need attention. Attention to detail needed for its star rating and price point. Bed skirts too short, skirting boards blown out from water damage. Instant coffee only and recption closed at 5:30pm. So if you needed anything, you had to contact via cellphone, leave a voicemail or see some in the bar/restaurant. Or. If you need a top up of towels, coffee etc, conveniently placed HK trolleys parked up along the corridor to assist you with your needs. Please, no flowers are better than fake flowers inside the hotel. Consider your surroundings as an environmentally friendly source for your displays, which is inline with your ethos. It was a peaceful stay thank you, just the facility is dated and needs more attention to detail.
