The location of this property is superb. The view to the Berg range is special. The day we arrived was beautiful so we made use of the swimming pool which was...cold! The following two days the weather was not good but this did not affect our stay.If you stay here and the weather is good take a trip up the Sani pass to Lesotho. We used a local company called 'Roof of Africa' who took us up in their 4x4 and gave a very knowledgeable commentary. We also made use of the Spa facilities at the hotel which were excellent.
