"Clean chalet with lovely braai area on deck overlooking hills."
"Wonderful stay"

11 August 2015

"Everything was perfect except the braai grid which is designed to slide around as well as up and down so that one can adjust the level at which one prefers to braai. The up and down aduster was so rusted that it could not be moved. Most annoying. Otherwise a very well run camp.<br />"

"We arrived there around 18h00 to find reception closed, but a guard waiting. After some difficulty getting our key from the guard, we eventually got to the chalet which was very pleasant. In all, it was a great bit of time off."
