    Beautiful view of the coast and peaceful location in Betty’s Bay. Hosts could not have been nicer or more helpful in terms of suggestions for things to do or places to eat. I ended up staying three nights rather than the two nights indicated by...

    Breakfast was professional and personal. They had many options and the hot breakfast was exceptional.

    It was exactly what we wanted, staff were friendly but casual and not in our faces, the facility was neat, quiet and well equipped. It was remote enough to get away, but close enough to go on an impulse.
