What a wonderful place, probably our fifth or sixth visit over there the last 20 years. Safe, peaceful and in fact Belvedere is unchanging, the whole area highly controlled. It’s Gods window, a place I am so happy and content. A wonderful place to stay.

Jeffrey was excellant. The swimming pool was clean and beautifully located. Under new management i did feel there was no one around when there was a problem. It needed someone on sight to sort things out. The standard rooms were also on the small side. We thought we had booked a bungalow.

More staff is needed in The Bell Tavern. Staff were excellent but were not able to keep up with the volume. Due to the lack of staff at the Bell Tavern, the food often came out over an hour after we ordered. Neither the TV in the living room or the bedroom worked. Overall though the stay was wonderful and the location is beautiful.

Memorable

We decided to revisit for our anniversary. Because of Covid it was not very crowded but the level of service was as good as we had previously experienced. Friendly welcome, efficient staff and very comfortable cabins which not even Eskom could diminish. Certainly it will not be our last visit.
