Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Great stay. Biggest challenge is that the rooms door was frosted glass and the night lights lit the room up like Armageddon. The team acted fast and turned off the lights for the remaining nights, which was much appreciated. Overall, food was good, service was a little slow but always well intentioned.

Well furnished boutique hotel
This hotel is a large boutique hotel - and although it looks like it has been around for a while, the rooms were freshly decorated. The hotel has quality furniture, linens and towels - which gave it a more luxurious feel than other B&Bs that I have stayed in. The breakfast was delicious - offering both a buffet of cereals and cold meats etc and a plate of cooked breakfast made to order. The leafy garden and views over Nelspruit were lovely and made us feel like we had had a mini-holiday whilst overnighting in Nelspruit.

A Nelspruit Gem
Our stay was fabulous, the room outstanding, the garden gorgeous and the main building with the dining room and verandah furnished beautifully. One of the loveliest Guest Houses we have stayed in. It is convenient to town and good restaurants but far enough away to be tranquil and quiet. We will certainly be back.

A beautiful Guesthouse set in lovely gardens
This is a lovely guesthouse set in a lovely garden. The staff are very attentive. The breakfast is excellent - cooked or continental. The rooms are clean, quite and have all the basics. There is a cash bar available. Rooms have a bar fridge and large flat screen TV. There is a lovely pool and deck area with a beautiful view of the area.
