South Africa“Beautiful self catering cottage overlooking the rainforest. Loved the double fireplace in lounge and bedroom. Staff were amazing and accommodated our frequent fire wood delivery requests. Everything was great!”- Kashif South Africa“Everything was nice and exceptional , staff was very cooperative and efficient, the last 7 km gravel road should be fixed and the rooms should have fans also during summer.”
