Guest review
10.0We loved our stay here, thanks to our host who was very accommodating with our arrival times. Beautiful spot, very comfortable, clean and cosy. With the added bonus of the hot tub! Very welcome after a long day of cycling! Thank you - we will definitely be back!
Should’ve stayed longer ;-)

Guest review
8.0The nature and scenic outlook was awesome. Everthing was nice and comfortable.
− The area was a bit uphill so it make free walking difficult.
A hidden gem off the beaten track!
10.0This place is truly a hidden gem. It is off the beaten track and located in the most amazing place. With views on high cliffs with waterfalls, beautiful fynbos and loads of friendly farm animals walking around. The accommodation itself was spotless clean, very comfortable and didn't lack in anything. The private swimming pool hidden in the fynbos was such a nice surprise! The owners are super friendly, hospitable and keen to help out. This was one of our favorite places to stay during our two months time in SA!
− Nothing!
