Terry and Robina are great hosts! Enjoyed the sound from the flowing river at night. Facilities were great, and the pool was lovely. Great location for a really private getaway!

"Such a unique experience where you are very much in touch with mother nature!"

9.0

The tented room is unlike any modern unit. It really puts you in touch with nature, and is something out of the ordinary. This was our second stay, and it was amazing as always!

This time round it was extremely warm as they have not had their seasonal rain yet. The river was very dry (however not something you're able to control), however the heat was unbearable. Being in a tent made it much worse. I'd like to see these units fitted with a portable A/C unit, or at the very least a portable water cooler. On our first night, the temperature peaked at 40ºC until after 19h00, which was bonkers! Also, when we visited 2 years ago, the LED light on the tree illuminating the shower didn't work - this time round, it still didn't work. I would expect the main light when taking a shower to work properly. Other than that, the stay was superb!
