The staff were very welcoming and could not do enough for us. Particularly Ever and Patricia. The whole environment and ambiance were brilliant. The rooms are well-appointed and very comfortable. The small function we had for our friends was well organized and the food was of very high quality and presentation.

    The Lodge was amazing. The food, breakfast and dinner was fantastic. I would highly recommend you stay in for the dinner. We used the golf facility as well and I must say it was the best 9 hole golf course I've ever played.

    The milk was the highlight as most guest houses and lodges provide little milk cartons with a lesser quality but true milk provided was a lot and quality. Michael was also friendly.
