    We attended the KKNK Festival in Oudtshoorn and although the location was out of town the distances to and from shows was easily handled.

    Great location and the attention to detail like little fresh flowers on the room. There is a lovely pool to swim in (which was needed!). Situated a bit out of town in a quiet area but near all the main attractions. Breakfast was pretty good too.
