Loadshedding Facilities
What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Verified review
We were given a stunning room overlooking the lake and it was awesome to wake up in the morning with such a magnificent view. My wife and I were the only guests there, so again very special to be able to have the whole venue to ourselves :) . All equipment is supplied for self catering. Thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay, so thanks to all involved. Owner and staff were incredible with checking up for our arrival. Went through a massive rain storm, with hail, on route along the gravel road, but fortunately arrived safely.
