    We had the most wonderful stay during our holiday! The accommodation was smart, comfortable, and well located next to the river where we could kayak. The hotel facilities were great, including a playground for kids and a fun mashie golf course. The breakfast served at the restaurant was superb, with a variety of delicious options. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, going above and beyond to make our stay memorable. They even picked us up after our canoe ride down the river.

    All was good.

    I had such a fantastic time at this luxury hotel! The location in a beautiful valley, surrounded by mountains and along the banks of a river, was simply breathtaking. The moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with a warm smile and impeccable service. They went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable, offering room service, dry cleaning, and housekeeping. The room itself was smart and comfortable, with all the amenities I could ask for. I loved the balcony where I could relax and take in the picturesque views. The on-site restaurant served delicious food, and the breakfast was freshly cooked to order each morning. The leisure facilities were top-notch, with a swimming pool, spa lounge, and sun terrace. It truly felt like a paradise nestled in nature.

    This hotel is a must-visit for everyone.

    I recently stayed at a lodge in a pretty little valley just outside a coastal town. The location was stunning, with breathtaking views down to the waterfront. The room was clean and comfortable, with thoughtful touches like a drink and chocolates by the bed. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff who went above and beyond to make me feel special. The breakfast was delicious, with a wide variety of fresh and homemade options. The lodge also had a beautiful golf course and luxurious new rooms.

    The lodge could improve on its facilities and room advantages.

    What a fantastic weekend getaway! The hotel was practically empty during our stay, so we were upgraded to a suite with breathtaking views. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making sure every detail was taken care of. We loved the little touches in the room, and the location was perfect for a peaceful retreat. Plus, the extra amenities provided added a special touch to our stay.

    The issue with the water. Due to the water problem in the area, the water in the bathroom had a yellow tint.

    Located off the N2, this hotel was easy to find. With stunning views of the river and hills, the rooms were beautifully decorated and equipped with heaters, electric blankets and plenty of space. The breakfast feast included hot and cold breakfast, and was great value for money. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The atmosphere was relaxed and there was complimentary sherry. Free use of canoe and mashie golf along with volleyball and free wifi kept us entertained.

    Due to unforeseeable reasons, the bathroom water had a tinge of yellow, which could be off-putting for some guests. The walk-in closet in one of the rooms was missing.
