This was a 25 year reunion with my best friend. Susann reached out before I arrived to check what I needed and made the arrival so welcoming. We only stayed 2 nights but they were amazing. M I had an amazing time and would genuinely recommend this place.

Would have stayed longer.

The owners very friendly and we spent sometime talking to them. Location is very good and is within a hour and a half to get to the Krugrer park gates. We olny had one night as we were in transit , but would have stayed longer if we had had the time. We will be staying again next year ( vacancies available )
