It only has 6 rooms and because it is owner run, has a very personal and intimate feel to it.All the main areas of the house are ornately furnished - bright colours and patterns abound. A heavily African themed lounge with zebra print sofa, make for an interesting place to relax and read the small selection of books and magazines, or to have a game of chess. There is another small, cosy lounge with a fireplace and also a bar. The small restaurant has high backed, wrought iron chairs and serves excellent food.Outside there is a large covered veranda, with wicker, cushioned chairs and sofas in vivid colours, large, comfy seats and benches – it's a lovely area to sit and enjoy the peace and quite having afternoon tea. There is also a descent sized swimming pool set in amongst the lush gardens.
