A Haven in the midlands

10.0

Fordoun was just the most wonderful stay for me travelling solo. The spa is superb and my room was just divine! Felt like home and so comfortable and classy! A haven in the midlands . The staff went beyond and Jules the manager was exceptionally kind and helpful. i would definitely stay there every time I return to South Africa.
