A very serendipitous discovery. I could write a lengthy review about the quality of the food. I could talk at length about the knowledgeable, friendly and attentive staff. There are however many such reviews, so I will just tell you: go there, don’t delay, just go. Why are you still reading? Just go. Go. Now. You won’t regret it.

My husband surprised me with dinner here to celebrate my birthday. Beautiful (and tasty!) food, excellent wine pairing, the most charming waiting staff and the happiest chef I’ve ever met. We’ve tried many a Michelin level fine dining restaurant and I can honestly say the citrus dessert is my favourite to date.

Loved the family feel of this place, felt unique for a tasting menu experience. All 8 courses were well balanced - highlight has to be the ostrich and crème brûlée dessert. Amazing service too!

If you are visiting wilderness you must either come to serendipity for their amazing dining experience, or stay at the fantastic country house to enjoy the beautiful town and surrounding area. The dining experience was one of the best I’ve ever had. Incredible food, absolutely fantastic service and attention to details, and a terrific wine pairing option. You need to dine here. The owner and his wife (who is the chef) put so much care into the menu and the dishes. The owner Rudolph will also spend 15 minutes at the start with you whilst you enjoy your appertivo to explain the entire menu. The stay itself was also terrific. Ben our host was so welcoming and made sure we had everything we could need. So many great recommendations and places to visit. The rooms are super comfortable and cosy. The hotel is right on the river so the hotel can give you a kayak to explore the area via water. Lovely breakfast and very friendly staff.
