None - I highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

Nestled in a green valley, surrounded by majestic mountains. Super hosts and staff. Lovely home cooked meals and wines. Relaxing pool and dam with terrapins. Memorable, friendly stay in the clean country air.

No issues.

We had a great time during our romantic escape at this secluded hotel in the mountains. The stunning natural scenery and the birds around the feeding tray were delightful to watch. The staff was friendly and helped us celebrate our anniversary. We also appreciated the opportunity to swim in the rock pools and the natural dam. The provided home-cooked meals were delicious and generously portioned.

Although the location was beautiful, the dirt road leading to the hotel was bumpy and challenging to navigate in a rental car. there was no air conditioning which made it uncomfortable during hot weather.

I had an amazing stay in this remote hotel located in a beautiful green valley set in a nature reserve in the Swartberg mountains. The transportation was a bit difficult, but the hotel facilities and stunning location made up for it. The cleanliness of the hotel was impressive, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious and filling.

Could not be improved in any way.

We had the most amazing time during our recent holiday! the location was a bit off the beaten track, but the breathtaking views and quiet surroundings were totally worth it. We loved the fact that there were several trails to explore and swimming options in a dam and pool. the hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food was always fresh and plentiful. We also appreciated the fact that they were eco-conscious and off the grid.

The lack of air conditioning, but we knew this beforehand as this was mentioned on the hotel website. Some pesky mosquitoes did make an appearance, but bug spray was provided.
