Dekotzenhof provided tasty meals and very comfortable ' sleeping quarters' for us whilst my husband explored the birding in the area. The lovely room gave us everything we required. Lots of reading material available as well as tea, coffee biscuits and sherry. Breakfast and dinner were excellent although there is no choice other than the hosts do check your eating requirements.
