So I stayed at one of your glamping tents this past weekend, OMG! Just what I needed. Like I said to the owner, "it's for when you want to go home (i.e. North West), but you don't have 4hrs to drive. Ill definitely be coming back

Good day Kuda. Thank you for your continued support and we love having you around. We look forward to seeing you and your beautiful family again.Posted on Benjamin TorrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent and affordable self catering establishment. A group of us booked adjoining 6 sleepers (1 double private room, 4 single open plan loft). The gas stove was a little finicky but otherwise amenities were all good.

We hope to host you and your friends again soon.Posted on Glynis CohenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The guest house has a farm atmosphere and cottages are rustic and nicely furnished. Staff very friendly and helpful. Didn't eat at the on site restaurant, did self catering. Kitchen could do with more utensils there were 9 of us so needed more. Lovely pool and some buck, a cow, emu and a few sheep. Shopping malls close by.

Good day Glenis. Thank you for your kind review. We are so glad you enjoyed the country atmosphere, surroundings and our friendly staff. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back again.Posted on Sarahina MayoyoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been using Hoopoe Haven since 2016 and I still feel so fortunate to have found this gorgeous gem back then, I practically call it home, and the many women, and men my organization has hosted there call it "heaven". The place screams peace and tranquility, it is a perfect hideaway to reset and rest. The staff are just amazing, always ready to assist with anything. Tracey is just an angel, no request is too much. The rooms are comfortable, clean and homey. The vintagey, rustic old cabin in the woods style is my kinda vibe. The grounds well maintained, the garden is a sanctuary, and the pool is our favourite summer space😁 The restaurant is also amazing, even for hosting events. Oh, and the animals at the back just complete the nature feel of this place.
