It was amazing to stay on this farm and wake up and watch the horses in the valley near the dam. The kitchen is huge and had so many things. I liked the welcome bottle of wine and coffee and rusks that were complimentary. The lounge has cool decor and the rooms are comfortable. Definitely a good farm stay.Hostess Cathy and kids were helpful. Great place for trail running as they have a route.

    It was a lovely environment with friendly staff. The room was well kept. We were there for a funeral and when we got home late at night after time with family, someone had come in and closed the curtains and put on the outside light for us. Beautiful rooms and gardens.

    The place felt like home and had all the necessary amenities inside and there is plenty outdoor space which makes it feel homey and the hosts were very, kind and accommodating. I will definitely recommend it for small families and people who are on business and do not want to miss out on the leisure part.

    Well because I wasn’t looking for luxury rather convenience, this place is near the UKZN golf road campus of which that is where I had the appointment at, however it is away from the town, I had to order in. I would recommend it for people who are visiting PMB for business, it is quiet, chilled and affordable.

    Loved the space. The host was very kind and a great communicator. The black finishes and attention to detail in the room 👌🏽👌🏽 we had a toddler with us and the room was extremely baby friendly. The kettle, microwave and other added extra's were just perfect for us. The shower head water pressure, I mean Hilton Hotel is that you? 😂😂 Argh I was really impressed man. Can't fault a thing. Thank you for opening up your home to us.
