    Hospitality of Nicolaas, Jacky and Kathy make a formidable team and the breakfast is healthy and delicious 😋 The shower was spacious and the option to bath was refreshing. May the establishment grow from strength to strength through God's grace 🙏

    Easy self-checking in system. Very good breakfast. Spacious bathroom with a lovely bath in the Pinotage Room makes up for the room not having a view. When the TV in our room didn't work, we were immediately offered another room.
