What a special place Tenahead is.The staff were friendly and helpful,the food was delicious and the room was superb.Spectacular views in all directions as we walked and cycled on our short stay.We will definitely be back for a few days to explore the surroundings.

Planned to stay 1 night on way back from Graaf Reinet to Durban - stayed for 3! Tenahead is a bucket list place to stay. The team, led by JeanMaree and Franco cannot be faulted and neither can the food. 5 course meals every night to die for, amazing scenery and walks.
