Great


It was different, nice and relaxing. Very nice countryside.

Enjoyable


We had an enjoyable overnight stay on our way to the Drakensberg from East London. The accommodation was cosy, the venue quiet and the hospitality great. I'm sure we'll be back.

Very satisfied with our stay at the Ripplemead


The eight teachers in my programme who stayed at the Ripplemead were very happy with all aspects of their stay--location, rooms, food, and the very pleasant interactions with their hosts. I plan to offer a programme for undergraduates in South Africa next June (2008) and I will include an overnight at the Ripplemead in our agenda.
