Everything. It was excellent and surpassed all our expectations. Anne and John were perfect hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. The room and facilities were spotless. The breakfast was first class and so much choice too. A particular mention for the superb South African breakfast that I tried - it was wonderful. They were both very knowledgeable about the local area which helped us plan our time too.
