⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a bride I can definitely say that we really enjoyed our stay here. Christelle went out of her way to make us feel at home. We (me and my bridesmaids) stayed the night before the wedding there and also got ready there the next day. They cleaned the rooms in between to make sure we can take photos in the rooms. We also took the most beautiful pictures outside. As a bride to a bride, you won’t be disappointed. – Lelani Potgieter
