    We were not given keys for the gate and therefore had to return earlier than we hoped to. We also didn't have hot water in the morning.

    Coralie was a fantastic Hostess. She went the extra mile to make us feel welcome and comfortable. She promptly attended to our needs, even after hours when we required assistance, helped us.

    I liked most of the things about the property and the is no noise or any interaptions. The staff members were kind and lovely from our arrival (even though we arrived way late). The food was delicious😻

    Nice, simple quiet location, away from the bustle of town. Surrounded by nature and vegetation..the place has a rustic country side feel to it. Cosy wedding venue type of place, with 3 star accommodation, chapel, reception venues.They also have donkeys and carriages for weddings or other events. Clothing boutique, Crafty gift store available and a mini tuck shop are available on the premises. Child and family friendly, with jungle gym swings and slide play area. A pool is also present although we didnt use it as the weather was cold when we stayed over. Rooms were clean and decent. Staff were professional and welcoming. Especially Coralie, thanks so much for the warm welcome and hosting.

    The room was very spacious, well ventilated with fans and having user friendly utensils, bath shower and toilet. The car parking area has sun protector net.

    The road leading to them is gravel for about 3 km , with the rain coming down so heavily, it was a bit problematic since we brought a small car.

    It's very clean, and in a tranquil location. Friendly staff and very helpful. I was with my 9 month old n they gave us a cot bed though there was a bed assigned to him, the gesture was very thoughtful and helpful, we are very greatful for that. They also assisted with places to visit around, so our stay was a total bliss
