    Very friendly staff Excellent breakfast Beautiful surroundings Big, clean swimming pool Lovely hot tub 3 friendly dogs on the premises, which we adore Degree of finishing (tiling etc in room) is poor, doesn’t have premium feel Hot tub very loud during the night; perhaps someone could proactively shut them down at 10pm? Refrigerator in room very loud as well

    Our room was very small. I realise I booked the cheaper room but it was exceptionally small. Very comfortable however Service at dinner was exceptionally slow. I know it was Valentine’s Day and busy but with a set and rather expensive menu I would have expected it to be better.

    Beautiful location and very clean room Nice pool.

    While the jacuzzi was a lovely touch, on a 32 degree day, it could have been adjusted to a cooler temperature. The bed was very hard and uncomfortable, and everytime I turned or moved, the boxed bed base made an annoying noise.

    Staff are very friendly and accommodating.

    The room was poorly laid out with too little storage space. Noisy heat pump for spa which I had to switch off at DB. WC too high for smaller people. Coffee machine too close to floor. No window other than folding doors. Rooms were across public road from main hotel.

    Fantastic food. Pool was lovely and restaurant area charming. Staff helpful and professional.

    Waiting time for food at dinner was too long (almost 2 hours), but in the end of very good quality. ECO was difficult to communicate with. Bathroom light was non-functional. Very hard mattresses.

    Remote rural location was a good change from city life. Jacuzzi was a treat.

    Having dragged our suitcases across the road from the car park opposite the hotel, we were told that our room was away from the main hotel, so they had to be dragged back, and up to the distant secluded rooms. For security reasons, I would not have booked a room away from the main building. Once shown to our room we were shown how things worked. We then found that the coffee machine would not work. My husband had to get down on his hands and knees (after both a knee and hip replacement) to ascertain that the drip tray was full and had not been emptied in quite a while as it contained about half a litre of fluid. Eventually, we got it to work. There were no instructions in the room. No phone number to call reception. There was no phone in the room! No instruction on how to use the air conditioning. The fridge was noisy and had to be switched off in the middle of the night. Breakfast was very nice and the waiting staff was good, however, you do have to put up with the owner's many dogs staring at you when you eat your food. We were greeted by an effusive lady at reception, full of Bon Homie, but she showed no real interest in our stay. On check out, she said goodbye, and there was no inquiry about our stay. We were both very disappointed. I hope this feedback helps the hotel to improve.

    Beautiful location. Excellent breakfast

    This is definitely not a 5 star accommodation, had some issues with worms and bugs but understandably so for this time of the year, overall cleanliness of the eating hall. One of the waiters were arrogant and blamed it on a party he had the previous night, that was a embarrassment to my family though.

    Property and the setting. Rita en Rozanne are very helpful and friendly hosts.

    The management service could have been better, specifically in dealing with circumstances arising before and during our stay. The rooms are equipped with tech to drive basic functions but much of it isnt working and the basic equipment (bar fridges) are not in good working order. When booking a room with a hot tub, and being told upon arrival that your hot tub isn't working, you expect an apology, a gesture or something due to the inconvenience - not to be told that no one was changed for a hot tub, when in fact, I was and all of my group who booked and paid for a hot tub were charged!

    The location is lovley, the service staff were friendly and accomodating. The pool area and views are beautiful and the facilities are readily avalaible.

    Staff were over 30 minutes late for check-in time as rooms were still being cleaned while we waited at reception. We called in before we arrived to ask if we could come through early and use restaurant and facilities however when we got there we were told the restaurant was closed until dinner. Wifi didn't work. Overall we had heard really great things and expected more.

    The images versus the rooms were disappointing. We were offered a room with a jacuzzi over the road from the hotel, the room was surrounded by a fence of branches and the jacuzzi was right on the front doorstep, with no view of the magnificent scenery in the district. We were then moved into another room which had hardly any space to move in, with a view, Our friend was equally disappointed in his room which also had no view and was really small. The hotel staff were understanding and agreed to move us to a room with a view over their swimming pool and dam(maybe 6 rooms in total) and swapped our friend into our room. "Echo" voice system in the rooms was irritating because it controlled lights, aircon etc., but didn't respond to our voices all the time when given an instruction.

    Delicious breakfast. Staff's willingness to accommodate us. Relaxing massages.

    We had a family room. It comes with a kind of hot tub, but lacking in scenery and privacy. The patio and entrance were enclosed by a fence constructed of sticks, obstructing views while allowing for unwelcome visibility to outsiders. The room automation system fell short of expectations, proving more hype than utility. Additionally, the room showed signs of wear and tear, betraying its age. Also they don't serve lunch or dinner everyday. Which is a little inconvenient because it's quite far from everything else.

    The staff is super lovely and friendly. They have a great cook. Breakfast is nice. The rooms overlooking the pool look much nicer than the rest. The massage was wonderfull! Great coffee in the room.

    The check in was terrible . The owner had not updated her system and did not have a room allocated for me. She tried to shove me in one of her side rooms - a cramped room with no views, no hot tub and an awful high wooden fence around the deck - ostensibly to give privacy. But it makes one feel like a dog in a kennel. NO VIEWS at all. I had booked and paid for a room like I saw on the site - with a hot tub and a view of the mountain. I asked for a refund when it was clear she wasn't going to give me what I paid for. Her reply (genuine) "If I had to give a refund to everyone who asked me that I would be bankrupt" . I then cut my losses and left - never to return. She then tried to phone me when I was 30 kms away to say "come back please, there is a guest who hasn't checked in and you can have his room"
