What guests are saying

"Great place for a light weekend lunch with magnificent views"

Rob · ★★★★★

"Nice pies with a good view of the golf course."

Caitlyn Alston · ★★★★

"The food was lovely although one meal took a look time to come out. Staff were friendly but the place was empty. It wasn't obvious where to go after we had parked. The cafe looked like it was all set up for a large function so was a bit intimidating."

Cathy Hunter · ★★★★
