As regular visitors to Game parks and Game farms we found Arathusa to be the best yet. Everything from the sightings to the ambiance and efficiency of the hotel staff was top class. We celebrated our wedding anniversary whilst there and the trouble the staff went to to make it a special day was amazing and very much appreciated. more

This was our second visit to Arathusa and it was better than we remembered. (And we were going back because we thought it was fantastic!)
