Individually decorated, the 12 rooms at Cleopatra are fast becoming world-renowned for the innovative and creative décor. Each room has a theme and is filled with many articles pertaining to the colour scheme and theme. All rooms have a warm, snug bed with down duvets and pillows, cotton sheets and mohair blankets. All have en-suite bathrooms, TV, tea- and coffee-making facilities, mini-bars, heaters, fans and warm towel rails as well as spectacular views. The comfort, peace and tranquillity is untarnished by people and create memories that will take a lifetime to fade.
A dining room filled with interesting artifacts and a large crackling fireplace invites you to enjoy a world-class meal lovingly prepared by Richard Poynton's team. Passion and patience go into the preparation of every dish with flavour paramount. Menus change daily and local, imported and home-grown ingredients are used at their peak and a stroll through the vegetable and herb gardens will attest to this. A place in the country becomes a natural magnet for people who want to savour the flavours of homegrown vegetables, farm fresh dairy products and home-cured hams. The passion and patience that goes into the preparation of food are reflected in the tastes and textures.
The dawn chorus, the sound of the river cascading over rocks and the quiet of the open spaces all hold wonderful opportunities to engage and soothe the mind. The sheer beauty of a landscape or the peace and tranquillity of a spot untarnished by people can be enough to restore equilibrium to any visitor. Wake up to the quiet of the country with the mountain mist rising silently knowing there is an unusual and exciting breakfast awaiting you.
Walking, hiking, cycling, swimming in mountain streams, trout fishing, bird watching, horse riding and excursions to local bushman paintings are just some of the activities enjoyed on the farm and in the area. With the frenzied pace of city life, the allure of an escape back to a more natural environment has grown stronger than ever.

Beautiful scenery. Majestic mountains. Serene lake. Cosy and comfortable accommodation. Great cuisine. Continental and English breakfast. 5-course dinners.
Pleasant and relaxing. Top-notch accommodation. Luxurious and comfortable. Delectable cuisine. 5-course dinner. Great variety and delightful blend of flavours.
The accommodation and dining experience that this team of people delivers is something to experience. This with the royal accommodation and scenic silence is an experience we will never forget and will return to again and again.
It was an extremely cold weekend, but it had been special because the food was delicious and the service excellent.
Apart from a very bad road due to "potholes", the place is a treat for the eyes and the stomach. Beautiful gardens, beautiful surroundings in a heritage area and great service. Dinner was a feast in the cold. I am extremely allergic to white beans and they adjusted my food without a second thought. Thank you very much.
The staff are incredibly friendly yet professional, from Amen who greeted us outside to Marius who handled the service.
The service, food and hotel are fantastic. It was a really nice place to stay. The environment is incredibly beautiful.
Setting and quality of hotel are very good. Dinners are excellent but table service could be improved, definitely not enough waiters. Asking for a bottle of wine turned out to be a challenge and I was asked to go to the cellar, which really is not on. The lake in front of the hotel is a huge bonus and we did use the free boat to take a gentle cruise around the tiny lake. Rooms are superb and very comfortable. Breakfast was mainly buffet, and at that price, one would expect real fruit juice instead of something from a box. Also, mimosas or smoked salmon should have been a choice given the high daily accommodation rate. Quality of dinner is excellent, but portions are very small. All in all, recommended if they take note of the shortcomings listed here.
If you like 80's gourmet food you will love the food. Nothing fresh in sight. Lots of butter and puree, stewed and heavy. The emphasis is on the presentation of the menu. The scenery is breathtaking, but if you're looking for a variety of restaurants, get ready for a 60-minute drive on a road full of potholes.
From our arrival to departure it was an unforgettable experience. The service is great and everyone is friendly and helpful. The food is truly excellent and each meal was a masterpiece in its own right. The environment is beautiful. The pond is on your doorstep and the mountains are right around you. We will come again for sure. Thanks to everyone who made it so special.
No complaints, a great farm stay.
Awesome scenery, warm atmosphere, friendly and professional staff. Most enjoyable meals and great coffee!
