The service was nice, as the food was fantastic. Beautiful deck with flower baskets and plenty of tables with beautiful views. I had to sit inside because it was cold. Really cozy and welcoming inside. Recommended for a quiet meal or social gathering. Thank you!.

This was our first time and we were blown away by the beautiful setting of the deck overlooking a small lake with a river and waterfall, where we were told it is often visited by friendly otto. There are self-catering cabins available to rent, accessible on a wooden pathway from the restaurant. We peed inside one or two, and they are comfortable and well-equipped. Daniel was friendly and warm. Our party chose lamb curry with rotis, which was tasty.

The staff was courteous and helpful. We stayed here for one night. We could sit there all day admiring the scenery, and it was extremely relaxing. The bathroom and kitchenette were both clean, and the room was very cozy. The restaurant was only a short walk away, which was great because I enjoy cooking there. Unfortunately, there were no vegetarian burgers, so I made vegetable curry that was delicious and filled the gap but needed a little more intensity. We saw lots of wildlife within a short period of time, and the dam is stunning.

The rooms are okay and they are perfect for the price. However, the host did not tell us we would be sharing the house with other guests abs this caused a startle with those we found in the house already. The gyser was not working and this was on a 9degree Celsius weather where we had to take a night and morning cold shower. Supper was a disaster: upon arriving at 7pm, we were told there’s no food as they had hosted a group of people earlier and couldn’t cater for us. We managed to get leftover stew guised as curry on dirty tables. To top it off, the place only starts serving breakfast after 9am; the kitchen staff only arrives at 9 so you get served around 10. Even that breakfast, the eggs were burnt on Saturday, did not offer variety and dare you ask for a second cup of coffee, you’d be slapped with a R24 bill. The chef was injured on her hand with what looked like unsanitary bandage. To top it off, while we were dining, a guest whisks into the kitchen with kiddies diapers to be disposed offand the chef “gladly assists” her- all in full view of us eating. Overall, I shan’t be going back.
