There are no words to describe 2 days in the Lion House. Transcendent? Overwhelming? Enrapturing? Without overstaying it, The experience was perfect in every way.

Beautiful location where you are simply at peace and far from the bustle of everyday life. The roar ofthe lions and dawn and dusk are the few sounds to break the tranquility....and they are a magnificent sound. The property was spotless, kitchen and bbq well equipped. Little touches like a selection of games for the evening and blankets to keep warm on the terrace were thoughtful and made the house feel homely. The staff were amazing...big shout out to Wade, Kayleigh and Suzanne. The owner Patrick is a real character and was a great source of information. Definitely recommend this place and will go back next year
