- Shasana (9/5): Overall, an excellent stay. I will most definately go back when the need arises. - As this was a self catering, this question is not applicable. Just one item for improvement: The water pressure in the showers.

- Simone (10/5): Overall, the stay was great. We would definitely book here again. - We loved the friendliness of the hosts, the house was clean and I loved the complimentary tea and coffee station. We didn't get to use to the garden but it looked great. I loved that there were emergency lights, a whiteboard with information and I loved the bathrooms! I think the only thing I would improve is the lighting outside by the doorway area. Maybe there was a light and we did not see it? Other than that, the place was amazing.

- Tinus (10/5): Exceptional - A very nice place and well maintained and certainly recommended. The entry and exit to the parking on the property is difficult. There is circular route with two gates and it was not clear why the other gate was not in use, which would simplify the entry and exit from the property.
