WELCOME FROM THE MD
Welcome to 2012 in the NH World!
I hope you’ve all had a good rest and that this year will meet all your fondest hopes and live up to your best expectations.
Here at NH, we’re ready for the new year and looking forward to bringing you more of all the good things you’ve come to expect from us: a warm welcome and a great time with lots of good things in between.
Our very first special event is just two weeks away: treat your Valentine to a romantic poolside dinner with live music and let the love flow... And in the spirit of making a fresh start to a new year, why not go somewhere you’ve perhaps never been before? NH Plettenberg Bay offers really good value for money and is the ideal home away from home for the whole family to enjoy all the fun, adventure and natural splendor of this spectacular coast.
Hope to see you soon,
