The place is amazing! The tent well furnished. The host was warm and helpfull. There are actually some options for food when reading the manual on location. Bed was very good and we've got provided with a childcot for our little one.

Tip for the host: provide the option for a supper in the booking information or in a message. We probably would have taken the option for a breakfast when given beforehand.

"Our stay was relaxing and peaceful, our hosts were incredibly lovely, and we will definitely be visiting again."

8.0

We had such a wonderful stay. The property was incredibly relaxing and peaceful, exactly what we needed to switch off from busy city life. The quiet surroundings made it easy to truly unwind, and we especially loved spotting different wildlife while driving in and out of the property. It was a refreshing and memorable escape.

The entry way to the property was a little difficult for a small vehicle, however, that was due to the recent floods and I’m sure it will be sorted when we go back!

The location . The Olifants river and the sounds of flowing river. The swimming pool was clean

They must invest in cast pots and microwave.
