    The only disappointment was that the bedding had a slightly damp, unpleasant smell..

    We appreciated the upfront communication from Linda from the time we made the booking and the assistance from Beverley during our stay. Great location, superb views, plenty of crockery and cookware. House is very spacious, and you are privy to the most breathtaking sunsets.

    the pool could have been cleaned to sparkling and for future maybe solar panel for heating. tvs in bedrooms, a more detailed inventory list and inspection on arrival. the kayak could have been included for the weekend - included in the price especially for the children. something that could include games for kids, adults can entertained themselves. there were no keys for privacy when it comes to there being more than one family. the house could have accommodate more people for the price. we would have liked to do inspection prior and after.

    what was liked was the location, fishing, there was wifi and tv, all the necessary utilities. Linda the owner was superb with communication and eddy the maintenance guy- he was there on arrival and assisted with everything that needed to be seen to. other than that the rooms were perfect.

    Comfortable for a large group of people. Kitchen equipment exceeded my expectations as there was not a single item that was not available. Pots, glasses and table ware was of excellent condition. The view was superb and the indoor braai was very comfortable since the weather was cool and rainy.

    Bedrooms had a mouldy smell as well as some of the bedding. Had to clean the showers in the 2 main bedrooms, grout was black. Couldn't get it 100% clean. Ants in our bed,which was a bit annoying but that is uncontrollable 😁 Definately need some maintenance. Also had no cleaners for the whole week which was a bit disappointing.

    Very spacious for family reunion. More than enough crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. Quiet location and close to shops.

    Bed in the main bedroom was uncomfortable, as it was 2 single beds pushed together. Kitchen window does not close completely and therefore was a bit cold especially at night.

    Loved the spacious rooms and privacy it provided. The view from each bedroom was perfect. Bathroom facilities were definitely a bonus for a big group.

    Exceptional holiday house for a large family. The host, Linda and husband was very friendly and welcoming. House was great, ample space and we had everything we needed. House also accomodates some power for load shedding. The weather never played in our favour, but if it did everything would have been perfect. Would defnitely go back and also recommend to anyone.
