    Had a lovely stay with my two daughters. Was only for the one night while in town for a school function. The host was very friendly, and the cottage was super cozy and well equipped with everything I needed. They even left chocolates and cappuccino for us in the rooms.

    I loved everything about the place, it different from most lodges in the province. It explores our heritage in KZN - the designs of the huts in & out were great, and having nature breath in its space was unspeakable. It felt like home!
