Location favolosa nella profonda campagna Sudafricana. Un'esperienza unica con panorami bellissimi. Disponibili villette con grandi vetrate complete di porticato, cucina, salotto, camera e bagno con doccia e vasca panoramica. Possibile cenare acquistando cibi e vini ottimi preparati da loro. Risulta nelle vicinanze una porcilaia e, se il vento soffia nella direzione sbagliata, si può sentire un po di odore, comunque merita sicuramente.

Wir haben hier unsere Südafrika-Rundreise begonnen und es war ein toller Start. Unser Appartement für 3 Personenn war sehr lliebevoll eingerichtet, so richtig zum Wohlfühlen. Die Gastgeber Gudrun und Johan sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit und sprechen auch beide deutsch. Das Frühstück und das Abendessen (das Gudrun kocht) sind hervorragend. Man kann auf dem Gelände der Farm schöne Spaziergänge machen und ist mitten in der Natur. Danke für die schönen Tage.
