It was lovely. Loved the grounds, the restaurant, the field and the fruits.

The service and facilities were amazing. There is great attention to detail and the atmosphere is calm. I would highly recommend the place for any sports teams that would like to rest and recuperate or prepare for an event.

Nice stay, service acceptable but not great, bit over priced

Good food, didn't find sitting at a large table with other guests as good as if we had our own table.

Undoubtedly the best hotel we’ve ever been to!

Wow wow wow. This property is just incredible. We have no words for how beautiful the house and surroundings are. So much so, we’re booking this venue for our wedding from the UK. The staff are incredibly friendly and will make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. The food is utterly sublime and very reasonably priced. We would 100% recommend this property! You MUST stay there if considering a vacation in the winelands!
