The unit interior as well as peace of mind that comes with the place

the property was quiet and well maintained, it was everything we were looking for

The property delivered on its promise… It was true nature OFF THE GRID 👌🏾

I loved everything about about the place...It's a very beautiful and comfortable place.

The house we got was secluded and offered us the privacy we needed, it also had a fireplace which came in very handy as it was raining and cold throughout our stay. Their staff were friendly, and very welcoming, so to sum everything up in one sentence, our overall stay was very pleasant and we definitely going to visit summerplace again in the near future😊

Amazing scenery and the hosts are amazing individuals who make you feel at home. The game drive was the best I have ever experienced in my life with the cherry on top being the hilltop ending, beyond amazing.

It is a beautiful place to escape the city and just have a quite weekend falling in love with nature, everything is provided and really exceeded my expectations, there is indoor and outdoor fireplace which is a nice touch, every facility from kitchen bathroom to the outdoor fireplace is provided, hosts were so excellent they let me check in around 8 in the morning as i came from far and had to settle and start doing some work before i can begin the weekend officially, overall a great place that is just so refreshing

The Host was amazing, she made sure that we are comfortable and enjoy our stay. She really goes out of her way to ensure that we happy and relaxed. The house was just amazing, very spacious and felt like home away from home. It's very quite and peaceful and we really had a wonderful stay. The facilities in the house were fully operational, we did not even need any assistance. We also enjoyed the complimentary game drive too.

Everything. It was lovely and peaceful and relaxing. We needed to get away from screens and big cities and it was perfect for that. There was game to see and most of the units are completely separate from each other, so you can completely avoid people if you would like ;). I just wish we could have stayed longer.

Everything. There was nothing to complain about. The cottage was superb. The views, the walks, the game drive and the staff are so helpful. Kids are already asking when we are going back again 😀
