Upon arrival, I was warmly greeted by the incredibly friendly and helpful staff. They quickly settled me into a comfortable room with a lovely view of the surrounding Langeberg mountains. The breakfast provided a delightful spread of continental options and made-to-order eggs, all enjoyed in a charming old restaurant within the beautifully landscaped garden.
