Breakfast with home made preserves are served in the breakfast room just off the guest lounge. Children are welcome to enjoy the play area in the garden under the oak tree, they will also love feeding the carp that swim in the dam just below the veranda.

Each well appointed suite leads onto a veranda where a guest can quietly sit, watching birds in our bird filled garden or enjoy the silence, while sipping an ice cold drink from the honesty bar or walk down the steps into the shade of a large oak tree.
