Reviewed Aug 11, 2026A real little gem just off the N1. It was our anniversary weekend, we had booked a standard room, but Annalie gave us a family room with a lot more space, and self catering facilities which we really appreciated. We loved that we could order dinner on the property, which was absolutely delicious! Thank you Deon and Annalie, we will definately be advising friends and family to book in when they travel, you can be so proud of the lovely property you have.

Reviewed Aug 4, 2026Very comfortable room and beautiful bathroom with large walk-in shower. The dinner option was very welcome at the end of a long days drive - the food was delicious. Unfortunately had to leave early so did not have breakfast.
No plug points next to the bed for phone chargers. Lighting outside the room would be nice as it was very dark when trying to pack the car.

Reviewed Jul 19, 2026We loved the atmosphere, the care and facilities. Home cooking for dinner was a bonus we did not expect, and the warm welcome was just what we needed after a long day on the road.

We requested a bigger unit (wich we did not pay for) just for some space after a long day on the road and our wishes were answered 😀 and the best part is our small doggy child is always welcome.

Reviewed Jan 9, 2026The location is great and the dinner was great. Did not have breakfast.
Being pet friendly we would have expected a fenced off area around the rooms to allow the dogs off the leash. Having travelled far and then being required to keep our three dogs on the leash did not allow for any relaxation for us. The bathroom had no hooks to hang clothes and the front door was sagging so badly that it had to be slammed closed.

Reviewed Dec 30, 2025We did not stay for breakfast, but we had the dinner and drinks the night before. We felt that the menu is a bit over priced for what was served. I had the lamb curry which was very average (not much curry) and my wife opted for the green salad. Food was edible but not worth the price. We enjoyed our room and have no issues. Will definitely stay there again.
As mentioned above, the food was okay but over priced in my opinion.

Reviewed Dec 29, 2025What more do you want after a long day of traveling…a pool, your own dogs running free, aircon and a “home cooked” meal!
The mattress was a bit wobbly…when my partner moved, everything moved, so I woke up often during the night.
