Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: My family had a lovely stay here, my daughters enjoyed every moment, Cheryl and Hans are lovely hosts, we enjoyed the treatment and the food. Facilities are neat and clean, pool is clean, lovely friendly dogs Marly and Muffin I'll miss them. Make sure you eat Cheryl's breakfast especially the hashbrowns, the honey sticky chicken and basmati rice for dinner was my best.
Negative: The wifi coverage was non-existent at times, but if you have no work or school stuff to do, you'll be fine
