    The breakfast selection was amazing, and the swimming pool was the best I've ever swum in, in my life. The beds were also very comfortable, my room had a bath and shower, and there was aircon! The swing chair in the rocky outcropping overlooking the valley below was just incredible.

    Load shedding but you can’t do much about that in South Africa.

    Breakfast was lovely. Very enjoyable. We took up a transfer option from the Airport with the host which was a good idea since our flight arrived late. Great communication at all times.The room also perfect and a beautifully kept and presented property. Wish l was staying longer. Such a friendly welcoming host. We loved our stay. Highly recommend this accommodation.

    The view from the cottage is beautiful, the cottage is well equipped for self catering, even though we had breakfast. The cottage is spacious and well equipped. They even have a honest bar where we got a good bottle of red wine at a reasonable price. We enjoyed the pool and the swing on the rocks.

    Bit of a bumpy drive in for those who did,nt know Africa before!!!

    Very handy for the airport and Suzanne was happy to have us come early made easier for the hire car staff could give exact directions. She guided us to restaurants and provided a home cooked meal one evening - most acceptable. It all made a great start for going into Kruger Par. I have stayed in the area about half a dozen times in the past and this was the best overall.

    Hot water for showering was a bit inconsistent probably because of load-shedding. Found some ants in the kettle in my room.

    Stunning panoramic view from a vantage point, sitting on a swing. Warm welcome from the host. Rooms are simple, clean and spacious. House is well-maintained and has a classy interior. A beautiful pool, lawns and gardens. Plus two very cute and active Labradors.
