Everything about this place is lovely, from the reception staff, property managers and restaurant staff (Robyn, Christine, Armstrong and Emma)! My Favourite was Laila, the sweet hunter dog! Gosh, it's hard to put this exceptional experience into words, all i can say... its a home away from home, so safe that we didn't even need to lock the doors! You have to experience this for yourself to understand the depth of the beauty!

That we had to come back home ....

"Tolle Unterkunft in toller lage"

9.0

Sehr viel Platz, große Zimmer

Recht düster , da alles in Holz gehalten ist. Dann müsste man Mehr Licht Einbauen. Man kann die Räume und das Haus nicht gut abschließen. Dennoch habe ich mich jederzeit sicher gefühlt.

I keep returning here, a farm atmosphere with the comforts of a spacious apartment, all set on top of a spectacular gorge with Wild 5 activities.

We had so much space, and the grounds are just beautiful. We loved being able to walk around the gorge for free and watch people do the jump. We also thoroughly enjoyed the fact that the resident dog adopted us for our stay, she was such a sweetheart.
