Farmhouse Resort & Spa anmeldelser

I don’t really know what we expected but “farm house” is an understatement! If you are familiar with the UK you may well have heard of “The Newt” and this is the nearest comparison I can make. The hotel is indeed situated within an amazing farm (do take the farm tour it’s fascinating) but it is the height of chic & luxury. The rooms (on stilts in a nod to the vernacular architecture) are vast, with separate bathrooms, stand alone baths, & verandahs. The hotel itself is a series of buildings. The restaurant was delicious but the fine dining restaurant “NU” was one of the VERY best meals we have ever had anywhere in the world. The breakfast choice was fabulous - including homemade peanut butter! The vast majority of produce served is grown or raised on the farm and takes "field to fork" to a new level. The spa was superb with treatment rooms as individual buildings connected by beautiful walkways. And finally if all this wasn’t enough what the “Smiling Gecko” charity, who own and run the hotel, the farm, the school and soon the university, have done and are doing for the local community is quite literally life changing. I can’t really say anymore other than that we left feeling uplifted, pampered and longing to return.
