10.0

It is inside the hosts house and so it feels very homely. At the same time I have privacy as I have everything in my room and can come and go unseen via the front door.

I cannot think of anything as the accommodation is exactly as described.

À peaceful sojourn in the Karoo

10.0

The room was comfortable and spacious. Karen is a marvellous host. So kind and considerate. I loved the garden, it has a special charm all of its own, inspite of the drought. I love de Rust it is quaint, friendly and peaceful.
