Rooms
Our most popular accommodation is located within the Manor House itself. Each suite is exquisitely decorated with a different cultural theme. All the rooms in the Manor House are non smoking, have DSTV, feather duvets on the beds, and tea and coffee making facilities.
The Bridal Suite
The Bridal Suite is a spacious east-facing fairytale room, most suitable for a bridal couple. The huge romantic 4-poster bed is draped in white fabric giving it a whimsical feel. The large windows overlook the gardens and dam. Other comfortable pieces of furniture adorn this elegant en-suite room.
The Indian Suite
The Old Indian Colonial days are very apparent in this opulent suite. Draped with Indian wall hangings, elaborately carved screens and ancient artefacts, this en-suite room oozes Oriental charm.
The Victorian Suite
The large Victorian Suite is also east- facing, elegant and in keeping with the theme of the main house. Front facing with large sash windows, it overlooks the garden and dam. A huge king-sized 4-poster bed takes centre stage amongst all the other antique furniture.
The Egyptian Suite
In the Egyptian suite, a large 4-poster bed adorns the middle of the room, which has an abundance of Egyptian artefacts, and an Egyptian wall hanging which gives the room an authentic feel.
The Chinese Suite
Ancient China beckons you to this luxurious suite with a large en-suite bathroom with a cast iron ball and claw bath and shower. Many pieces of furniture from China adorn this room and the whole atmosphere gives that feel of the east.
The Garden Suites
There are a further 17 garden suites which are tastefully decorated in neutral earthy colours and overlook a large tranquil pasture (you may spot some dairy cows in the distance!) All the rooms have heaters and the beds have feather duvets for those chilly winters days. The french doors open onto a large, cool, tiled veranda making it the ideal accommodation for families or conference groups. Five of the rooms are family suites and can hold 4/5 guests if required. The balance of the rooms are twin-bedded. The Studio Cottage is particularly suited to family visits as it has two bedrooms with a shared bathroom and a communal lounge area.
Our quaint thatched Rondavel is situated along side the Manor House and is wheelchair friendly. The room has a distinctive ‘Out of Africa' feel with a collection of craft hand made by the people in the area. It boasts a double bed with a feather duvet and a full bathroom with a large shower.
