Umtala House | Lyxigt 4 sovrum hem

Spent a fabulous long weekend in Leura with our kids and partners. The house was warm, cosy and beautifully decorated. And it has the perfect lawn for a spot of Finska. Had a moment of confusion when I couldn’t find the cutlery, but that was the only (very slight) negative of our stay

Wonderful house set up, provision of all that we need made for an easy week to enjoy the mountains!

Five school friends (for 65years) returned today from spending the week at Umtala on our annual reunion holiday. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The beautifully restored house (from 1917) met all our needs. Umtala has a lovely mountain feel and very cosy atmosphere. We loved the front room where in the evening we enjoyed a glass of wine by the wood burning fire place. The kitchen/family room is where we spent the most time around the table enjoying each others company chatting, laughing, playing board games and cards and of course enjoying the meals we prepared in the modern and amazingly well equipped kitchen. Each bedroom was elegantly decorated and the beds, linen and doonas made for a good night’s sleep. With the central heating wherever you were in the house you were comfortably warm. Everything was spotlessly clean on arrival. So we can highly recommend Umtala.

Umtala exceeded our expectations. All our needs were anticipated and we were very comfortable through hot days and cold. The backyard is a beautiful place to picnic, with the added bonus of herbs and rhubarb. Have already booked a return visit!

We had an extended family group with 5 adults and 3 kids. It’s just perfect. Beautifully decorated. A cubby and toy chest to keep the kids occupied. Separate lounges meant we weren’t on top of each other, the big communal kitchen/dining was a great place to come together. 20 min walk or 5 min drive to leura shops. This is our third stay here - says it all!
