Verified reviewvery good

My husband and I went to Barkley East to take a break from all the stress of Johannesburg. It was so absolutely beautiful and epaceful and we were happy that there weren't too many things that we "had to" do and see. We could just enjoy the sound of birds and the smell of the barbeque.
