Lily Pond Country House welcomed us with a calm relaxed comfortable environment in very difficult circumstances. The sta

10.0

The property is set in wonderful surroundings and is tastefully furnished and decorated with beautiful African art. Our room was spacious and equipped with everything you could need. When we visited the whole area was badly affected by stormy weather and had no electricity or communication. The staff and management did everything they could to make us comfortable despite the adverse conditions and still managed to serve us with delicious food at dinner and breakfast. I would rate this property as exceptional for service,comfort, fine dining and beautiful surroundings.

Staff were exceptional and so helpful. Also liked the location, view, restaurant. Breakfast was ok.

Unreliable WiFi. Bugs in the room - windows should be kept shut.

Sehr nette Besitzer und top Petsonal.

Sauberkeit könnte besser sein. Toilette war nicht gut gereinigt.

Das Personal war sehr bemüht.

7.0

Die Unterkunft ist sehr ruhig. Der Parkähnliche Garten ist schön angelegt.

Die Unterkunft ist sehr abgelegen. Alternativen zum Abendessen mind. 15 Autominuten entfernt. Das Essen im Hotel ist eher durchschnittlich. Die Anlage ist etwas vernachlässigt. Buchstaben vom Eingangsschild sind abgefallen. Der Garten scheint seit einiger Zeit nicht gepflegt worden zu sein. In unserem Zimmer gab es keine Trennung vom Schlafen/Wohnen zur Toilette. Von der Badewanne waren die Stopfen entfernt, damit man nicht durch Baden zuviel Wasser verbrauchen sollte. Das wäre nicht notwendig gewesen, denn aus der Leitung kam nur gelbbraunes Wasser.
