That site's at cotswold.co.za.

We wanted to create a guest house site with the text in various languages.

Since the people who were going to translate the site from english into [French|Italian|German] were going to be 'geographically distributed', and not likely available at the same time, I thought it would be too complex to coordinate all those translations and the updating of the site. Creating the site in rails as a CMS was the easiest way to deal with it. When someone is ready to add or translate text, they can login and do so.

Basic Ingredients: Rails and postgres, along with the globalize, file_column and exception_notification plugin.
