Fantastic stay! Our stay was absolutely fantastic. Everything about the house was to our liking and more. Rooms were spotless and tastefully decorated. The house had everything we required and we loved the building improvements. Paul welcomed our group on arrival and showed us around the house; we appreciated that. Even when we noticed a leaking basin in one of the rooms, someone was sent out ASAP to attend to it and the runners could still enjoy a shower when they got back. Even the baboons visiting was an experience. We will definitely be returning in the future! Thank you for a wonderful 3-night stay.

Excellent. One of the best holiday homes I have ever had the pleasure of utilising. Completely functional in every respect. If given the chance again, I will gladly grab the opportunity. High five to our gracious host, and the staff Thelma, Lamson, Gift, Thulani, and not forgetting Ettienne. Thanks for everything. The family really enjoyed it.

Fantastic weekend. Our stay was fantastic. We celebrated my daughter's birthday weekend with immediate family. The house was well equipped, neatly laid out and very homely. Paul provided us with instructional videos to aid us when we arrived, and these orientated us beautifully. The house is perched on a hill just off the main road. It's easy to find and very close to the beaches. We'll definitely stay there again.

Delightful. Very comfortable. The house made sense. Nice proximity to the beach with a view of the sea and mountain. Built so you are sheltered from the wind. A great time was had by all. Lovely indoor fireplace. Thanks for the wood.

Hi Deborah. Thank you for your review and we are glad you had a great time. The built-in braai on the deck, which also keeps the deck virtually wind-free, has been a very popular addition. Kind regards, Paul and Jenny.

Hallo Deborah. Dankie vir jou resensie en ons is bly jy het lekker gekuier. Die ingeboude braai op die dek, wat die dek ook feitlik windvry hou, was 'n baie gewilde toevoeging. Vriendelike groete, Paul en Jenny.
