Pleasant
Breakfast's were amazing. The staff was great and the location was great, easy access to all major highway and roads, Absolutely love Newlands.
The beds were very uncomfortable. Very hard mattress and the room was very hot. Needs a decent aircon installed ,. Did not like that the bathroom didn't have walkin shower and no windows.

It was an excellent stay, from breakfast to comfort of the rooms. All the needs were met. Even a steam iron was placed in the room! Beds and bathrooms were really clean. Everybody was friendly. Location was really easy for foreigners. Great food, great coffee! Thank you for everything.
No bad comments.

The staff were absolutely wonderful, helpful and friendly. The locations is great. Rooms spacious and everything you need in the room. Breakfast so good and well done to the staff Fresh fruit and full English breakfast. Muffins were absolutely delicious and good coffee - worth a visit.
Bathroom door would not close - but nothing serious.

The garage set up could be improved by removing the shelving at back so that big cars would not have to have special spots. We came back one day and another person was occupying our bay and we spent 20 minutes getting a key for one that was not occupied - this was very annoying

The location was perfect. Lovely area. The house is beautiful. The staff very welcoming and efficient. Breakfast was promptly served and very nice. We requested a room with a separate room for our teenage son which was accommodated. Walking distance from bars and restaurants and a short drive to lots of places worth visiting. The owner, Inri, was very friendly, very informative and we enjoyed our chats with her. Netflix in the bedroom. Parking was provided. The upstairs lounge was gorgeous and a real pleasure in which to relax.
Not much. The room wasn't as nicely finished as the other rooms but as it was the only one that came with two rooms we were OK with that. Garage was a little tight for an SUV. Really though these did not affect the pleasure of our stay whatsoever.

It was our first stay to this beautiful Lodge and already planned our next stay with Inri the Owner. Inri definitely has amazing interior decorating skills and it is evident in every room you enter. The whole Lodge is beautifully decorated and ultra comfortable but besides this the staff were amazing and friendly and we're so helpful, warm and kind so much so that they have become our friends now. The breakfasts were very tasty and very filling and were impressed that they supply a water fountain and bottles to take to your rooms so never need to bring in your own water in. The rooms were so clean on entering it felt like no-one stayed there before us!
Hand on heart there was nothing we did not like about this Lodge perhaps the only thing we all didn't like was leaving it.
