    The delicious salmon and crayfish risotto was a highlight, enhanced by friendly banter with the locals at the bar. the late-night noise from the bar was disruptive to my sleep.

    delicious food
    great tapas
    serene grounds
    early bar closing
    wet bathroom

    The food scene here is top-notch—loved the stunning tapas in the cozy bar, and the dinner was a real treat! Plus, the huge grounds made for a perfect dog walking jaunt with my pooch.

    Unfortunately, the bar closed at 10:30 PM, which killed the vibe for our nightcap. The bathroom setup was a bit of a bother too, as everything got soaked without a shower screen.

    early bar closing

    Had a fantastic time with friends at this charming spot. We explored the nearby gardens and took a short drive to a local winery. The breakfast was top-notch, and we enjoyed our comfy Deluxe King Room. Staff were friendly and accommodating, making the stay really enjoyable.

    The bar closed early at 10:30 PM since we wanted to relax with a nightcap.

    The serene grounds with tree-lined driveways and a playful kids' area were a real standout! 🌳 we did run into some noise issues from the bar late at night.

    excellent breakfast
    refreshing beverages
    noise levels

    The dining options feature a refreshing beverage selection that's well-prepared, making drinks enjoyable. The breakfast spread offers excellent choices with quality ingredients, ensuring a solid start to the day.

    The room I stayed in didn't live up to expectations for the price paid, feeling cramped and lacking ventilation. Noise levels were an issue as well, with sounds from the bar disturbing sleep, detracting from a potentially relaxing atmosphere. Some areas, like the bathrooms, showed signs of wear and tear, needing a refresh to meet the upscale vibe. Lastly, management seemed unresponsive to specific issues raised, which left a lack of confidence in their customer care.

    jacuzzi bathtub
    electric curtains

    Family with children a nice getaway

    So we stayed for my birthday and the food was great I mean they kept the kitchen open for my partner when she was late coming back from her night out. The room had this jacuzzi bathtub and electric curtains just felt like luxury you don’t expect but needed.

    It wasn’t inexpensive but overall it was acceptable.

    Just enjoyed a lovely evening stay! The Cornwallis Suite was stunning with a jacuzzi, and the dinner options were delicious. The ambiance for breakfast was charming, though one item wasn’t served as listed.
