It was satisfying.
Pros:

Breakfast was very simple not posh like a Wimpy breakfast. Simple English Breakfast. Room was comfortable bed was humangous.

Cons:

I don't like the way the cars park out in the open. Hotel is in the farm area set up close to Drakensberg. Weather in the area is not garenteed hail, etc could damage our vehicles.

Pros:

Large rooms, great view

Cons:

The access road is like a ploughed field.
There was a limited choice of soft drinks.

Pros:

The dirt road was not good to get to the venue. I was not even made aware that it is a 1km dirt road. Otherwise, I only have good positive feedback to give. We had a lovely stay.
