I cant tell you how wonderful it was staying with Ann and Dion over the last weekend in October - my daughter and her three bridesmaids all got ready in the self contained unit (poolside apartment) while a large number of other family members stayed in the main lodge.

What a find.. Resort style accomodation at motel prices. an oasis for the travel weary traveller. The experience was like staying in an elegant freinds home, a house and garden setting with the personalised touches that only top hotliers provide.

No need to say much. Really good, super clean and great host. I left an expensive MP3 player behind--found and returned no problems. Super for us. more
