The rooms were clean, the staff friendly and they also didn't hesitate to assist with questions and recommendations. The breakfast was delicious.

The accomodation and staff were fabulous. What a lovely friendly place to stay. We had everything we needed including a loadshedding schedule. It was cosy and warm and the restaurants around Gariep were perfect for dinner.
