It was a lovely stay. We loved the cats, but hadn’t seen them on booking (I’m usually highly allergic, although it matters the cat and the distance from where they usually rest). Everything about the staff and modern rooms and views were perfect!

Wir haben für 4 Nächte im Cottage Nr. 4 übernachtet. Das Cottage hat uns wirklich sehr gut gefallen, auch wenn der Jacuzzi nicht mehr vorhanden ist. Da es etwas abgelegener liegt als die anderen Cottages, hat man dort wirklich seine Privatsphäre und kann dort wirklich gut entspannen. Komplett verdunkeln kann man das Cottage leider nicht. Das Frühstück war auch sehr gut. Man kann sich von der Karte alles auswählen, was man mag. Zudem gibt es täglich ein wechselndes Special. Es fehlte wirklich an nichts. Das Personal, insbesondere Andrea, war wirklich hilfsbereit, freundlich und engagiert. Wir können das Guesthouse nur weiterempfehlen.

Um sonho!

Faltam palavras pra descrever esse lugar! Desde o primeiro momento a recepção e a atenção da Roxanne com a gente é algo raro de se ver. O lugar é um sonho, recebemos um upgrade de quarto, tudo limpo, cheiroso, com flores colhidas ali mesmo na fazenda para decorar nosso quarto. O café da manhã foi sensacional, realmente faltam palavras. Super recomendo!

Sugar Bird Wonderful

I enjoyed Sugar Bird Manor very much. The property is simply gorgeous; I am still showing photos of the room and grounds to my friends. The views are spectacular and the property seems very secure (it is surrounded by an electric fence). I would prefer, however, if the front desk were staffed 24/7. One unappreciated incident: the cleaning staff left the veranda door to my room wide open, and I had to lock it and the windows. Anyone could have walked right in. I had to leave before breakfast for an early morning flight and, thus, was unable to have breakfast, which I would have liked to have enjoyed. I would definitely return to this lovely bed and breakfast.
