Ruhige Unterkunft für das Ankommen in Südafrika für den Weg von Johannesburg nach Durban. Es gibt dort Möglichkeiten zum Wander und Wasserfall besuchen. Wir hatten Halbpension und das Essen war super

Die Zufahrtsstraße könnte etwas besser sein

Beautiful location, friendly staff & pet friendly!

Such a peaceful , stunning location! To 'retreat' to and recharge just as the name suggests. Comfortable and clean faciliities, lovely hosts , incredibly friendly staff and delicious food (accomodating to all dietary needs). Love the conservatory garden for my puppy- very pet friendly! She even made friends with the horses. Lovely hikes to do on the property as well.
