What a wonder place to rest after a long drive. The rooms are huge with stunning en suite bathrooms. The bed is huge with crisp white linens. Loved the complimentary snack platter and wine. The surrounding property is beautiful and the restaurant and bar setting is just perfect. The food is delicious. I could have stayed eating breakfast for hours. Overall the service and the property is totally worth it. Wish we could have stayed longer. P.S. It's pet friendly and load shedding proof. Thanks guys!
