[QUOTE=CMV;11732784]I respectfully disagree. We stayed in the Lakeview Villa in late 2007 and had an amazing stay. Service that anticipated our needs, was warm, gracious and not intrusive. Very good food, the vast majority sourced locally or from on-site. Beautiful accommodations -- we had a wonderful view of the forest and lake below, a wood burning fireplace with a fire built daily for us, comfortable bed and large sitting room. We also had various 'surprises' that made the stay even more fun -- the sweets in our room one day when we returned (from a long hike, if I recall correctly), the homemade charcuterie the chef was experimenting with and offered to us. There are others I'm forgetting. We also enjoyed hiking the grounds and taking a ride in the Range Rover to see wildlife, etc. I also think the main lodging, built around and incorporating the existing water on the property, is stunning.

I'm curious why you think it's tired, vuittonsofstyle?

Also there in 2007 and thought the land was paradise and the concept laudable. Despite the very good mood lighting, I thought the rooms and suites could do with an up-date as ours was quite dingy, the TV was old, sofa needed replacing and fridge had seen better days. Wardrobes were too small and badly thought through. Food was superb. Service was patchy but always friendly. Friends of mine have been there since and underlined what I thought - wonderful place but needs a bit of work on the interiors.
