Loved it
I really enjoyed my visit at The Woodpecker Inn. The staff was attentive and kind. Registration and departure was easily accomplished. I loved having breakfast on the verandah each morning overlooking the golf course.

The woodpecker is a lovely guest house on the golf course, so you are able to go for a walk or a run easily, very tranquil setting and totally safe The staff are lovely and really helpful especially Nomsa, who always does extra things, as I arrived late from a flight in the evening and she had left me some cake out for my return Breakfast on the terrace is very peaceful Will def be returning
