"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The surroundings are stunning and the staff are very friendly, but their English is very limited. All information in the cabin is clearly noted and set out, but unfortunately no distances are indicated on the various walks. The warm water system can definitely be improved as the heated water isn't very clean. The directions aren't very clear and there is no board stating the venue name at the entrance,when this was queried the response was quite blunt and abrupt,which put a dampner on things even before our arrival. Other than our dealings with a lady named Anne, we really enjoyed our stay."

"Awesome mountain breakaway"

Jackie Drotsky | 14 August 2017

"We had such a wonderful time celebrating both my husband and my birthdays. Close to nature with many hiking trails to choose from, yet close enough to shops and restaurants if you need something. "

We loved having no TV and being able to switch off and just be quiet. The nature walks down to the river were a highlight, the area is glorious. The hostess is an extremely friendly and warm person who helped us in whatever way she could. Next time I would go for longer! "

"We rented the Log Cabin for 2 nights over New Year and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you can imagine. The outside showers is fantastic, and we also loved the fact that the cottage gets serviced. As it was rainy most of the time, we spent it in the cottage and at the outside fireplace when possible, so didn't go for any walks. Being up in the trees when looking out the bedroom windows is magnificent.

Will definitely be back."

"A Really Relaxing Time, Where We Were Well Looked After!"

(South Africa) John | 16 December 2016

Would recommend it to anyone wanting to get away from the city for a few days :) "
