Enjoy watching the vibrant sunsets from the poolside patio and bar. Each room has it's own private bathroom with bath and shower, enjoys air-conditioning, tea/coffee facilities, personal safe and hair-dryer and has TV and DSTV. Wifi, a good library, and selection of board games can be discovered in the many cozy lounges and hideaways in this pretty and comfortable country retreat.
