    Hanna, received me very nicely and opened the gate for me. You can park right in front of the little house and the gate is lockable. I had burnt some toast and it was very smoky. Hanna, was cool and the smoke cleared quickly thanks to the fans. Nothing is missing in the flat. If there is something special, Hanna is on hand with help and advice. Top, would come again!

    With my late arrival and check-in I was received by a friendly and helpful hostess. The place is very cosy, clean with everything and more I thought I would need. Bonus was having electricity during loadshedding, Unfortunately as of loadshedding I could not get access to any Wi-fi due to poor signal.

    It would be great if the gate has automatic access and the security gate locks. Given that were new in the area this would have given us an extra sense of safety. But everything else was just as advertised. Nothing out of place.

    The host was there to meet us. She was very warm and explained everything clearly. The shower was hot on arrival (which is a big with SA loadshedding), very considerate of the host to have it prepared for us. The kitkat was a sweet touch.

    There was nothing I didn't like!

    I spent one, very pleasant, night at the Nook. The apartment is spotlessly clean and very well equipped, including bottled drinking water. There is plenty of space for two people including luggage (and in my case, a bicycle) with a dining/lounge area. The bed is very comfortable (with an electric blanket for cold nights!) and right next to the shower (which has plenty of hot water). There is also WiFi and, very important, a Jojo tank and an inverter with good battery storage to guard against the unpredictable water and electricity supplies. The hostess is exceptionally pleasant and very knowledgeable about Cradock and the surrounding areas and was even able to direct me to vegan-friendly restaurants (something I did not expect). There is off-street parking right next to the entrance and a driveway for bigger (or more than one) vehicles. I will happily stay there again.

    No problems at the property itself and Cradock is a beautiful little town - it just needs to sort out its roads.

    Quite the gem. Hanna, the host, is incredibly in tune to one's needs and really took care of us. The accommodation itself is comfortable with adaquate load shedding mitigation options. A great place to get a good night's rest.
