This is an absolutely stunning place that was let down by the service received.

We booked the family picnic package. I had received a call the day before arranging all of the times for the picnic and tastings, this was however not on the system and I had to keep coming to reception to ask questions about my package. On complaining about how disorganized I felt they were I was told that I should know what I booked, so they did not see a need for explaining my package and times etc to me on arrival.

I also had to ask about their bicycle trails as my kids had their bikes and were looking forward to riding their bikes around the establishment. This we absolutely loved.

The rooms could do with an upgrade, but they are well sized and comfortable.

The buffet dinner was average, not a wide variety but the service was excellent at dinner.

Breakfast was good until we were chased down with a speed point afterwards asking us to pay for the kids as they are older. My kids are 9 are 5 and no where near 12. Anyway by this point I was so fed up, we paid. We are now waiting for a refund for that payment.

The location is absolutely stunning and the ladies on check out were so apologetic about the experience we had had.

Serious training needs to happen with some of the staff at this place. Autograph Collection standard? Not a chance. Hopefully one day I can get a better experience.

Excellent conference facilities of various sizes, with or without accommodation. Quiet with open spaces and a lake. There were several events at the same time and they never intruded on ours.
Top restaurant and buffet facilities too.

An absolute oasis of peace and quiet. We got greeted by monkeys on our arrival, and met some other during our stay.

The service was very good, the place is amazing (both indoors and outdoors), and you should take a walk around the lake when the sun goes down!

The only thing I would reproach is the staff randomly trying to get in the room when you're in it to leave a chocolate or do the bed, which could be done when they do the room.

Very comfortable stay. I enjoyed the chance to walk around the lake and see all the birds. Gardens are beautiful. Thanks

Average service from check in to check out. Slow service. No urgency to provide assistance. Won't go back again. Better places available for cheaper.

Felt like I was in a farm far away from the hustle and bustle of city life but still within reach of malls and amenities

The best place to be for business or personal, always on point, the rooms, the food, the conference facility with the best internet connection.

My husband and I spent a night here (including a picnic, dinner and breakfast) and we really enjoyed it. It was beautiful, the staff were all extremely friendly and the food was very good. We did a milkshake tasting that was okey, but nothing special. I would definitely recommend going here if you want a tranquil break

I attended a conference here. It's a cool and calm lodge good for organising conferences or wedding reception. It has a beautiful lake facing the hotel and conferences hall.

It's luxurious.

Great place for a relaxed quiet stay not far from the city! Peaceful location at a little lake, surrounded by the visitor-friendly Irene farm and a pretty golf court.

Warm welcome by the staff (a high-five goes to Maureen!) everywhere on the property. Well equipped bar, awesome for sunset drinks. Rooms are spacious and with great views of the forest or the lake!

Cozy spa with good treatments and a little pool. All in all it was a great, relaxing stay, would definitely come again!

Rooms and amenities are nice and clean. Great views for trail walks and picnicking.

This hotel is good for families. Consider eating out as an option there are nice restaurants around.
