Excellent location — rated 9.4/10! (score from 149 reviews)
Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The place was completely what we were looking for in the Berg and more : peace, tranquility, privacy, opportunity for hiking and very close to the border with Lesotho ( ideal for Sani Pass tours, all organized and you are picked up from the cottages) . The place gives a very authentic yet comfortable experience of the mountain life, with comfortable bads, great shower, option of cooking gas or an electric stove, fire place and generous arrangement for extra wood, decent Wi-Fi connection in selected spots. Great hospitality, just the right balance of genuine care and availability without being intrusive. And you get fresh, most delicious scones every morning. We will definitely go back.
