Everything about Hara House is awesome. Rooms are modern and very comfortable. Facilities are awesome - Pepperberry food is as good as anywhere I’ve ever eaten. Spa was relaxing. Use of bikes and tennis for free was an added bonus. Definitely stay here if you can get a booking!

We had a relaxed 2 night stay. The staff were personable and friendly, especially the wait staff in the restaurant. The food was excellent and we loved course we tried. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We had a hit of tennis and used the free bikes which was a lot of fun. Thanks for having us!

Overrated and overpriced for what it is which is a refurbished motel. All geared around eating at their restaurant. All the staff were very friendly and bed real comfy. You wouldn’t be walking into town.

This was the perfect spot for our long weekend getaway. The room was impeccably clean and uniquely designed. Parking was a breeze, and we loved the complimentary bike hire, which allowed us to explore the nearby bike trail. The staff were lovely and accommodating, and having a beautiful pool right outside our room was a wonderful bonus.

To describe our stay at Hara House in only a few words is no easy task! Fron the moment we arrived at check in, we were greeted with nothing but warm and friendly vibes. All the staff made us feel immediately welcome, and service was always met with a genuine smile. For our entire stay, Hara House felt like our home away from home, and as joyful as it was to be here, it's equally as sad to have to leave! Without a doubt we will find ourselves wandering back to Hara House once again... Lots of love, C&K xo
