Our stay was very pleasant . Breakfast was good but could be a bit better especially fresh fruit . The room was very good . The only comment is that there is no railing on the stairs leading to the Bedroom . We were in room 10

“Relaxing luxury, ideal for a 2-3 night stay”
The property was very clean and well presented, the lodges very relaxing - we booked one with its own plunge pool and deck and this was heavenly for getting some proper rest and relaxation. The staff were exceptionally polite and helpful. The food is very high end and a real taste experience.
