Great getaway for peaceful weekend in the hills. Lovely lodge set in beautiful surrounds. The owner friendly and welcoming. Had the fire going for us when we arrived on a cold wet night, with great breakfast provisions supplied. Good location, close to near by local shops and cafes.

Great location and very relaxing environment, however we found it a little annoying waking up by the jacuzzi in early morning around 6am as the jacuzzi just located above the bedroom. Both of us got bugs bites from sleeping in the twin bed.

It was amazing- there’s this whole other world of pure blissful natural abundance and you are gently and safely introduced to it from the point of setting föot outside your suite. You’ll have all the facilities you need for a warm and comfortable stay. A good place to visit if you need to hit that reset button.

Great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life 45 minutes from the City but you feel a million miles away. Very relaxing and quiet and room is cozy and very self contained. Internet connection is almost non existent but it adds to the charm.

Location and room are great. The host Steve was excellent. We ended being there on a 40 deg C plus day. The power in the whole area went down at 3:30 pm. After arriving back at 7:30 after dinner the power was still out. Steve was happy to let us go home early and give us a free catch up day later. Good customer service!!
