Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The property is set in wonderful surroundings and is tastefully furnished and decorated with beautiful African art. Our room was spacious and equipped with everything you could need. When we visited the whole area was badly affected by stormy weather and had no electricity or communication. The staff and management did everything they could to make us comfortable despite the adverse conditions and still managed to serve us with delicious food at dinner and breakfast. I would rate this property as exceptional for service,comfort, fine dining and beautiful surroundings.
Summary: Lily Pond Country House welcomed us with a calm relaxed comfortable environment in very difficult circumstances. The sta
