5 star stay
Amazing place. Jan the host was super attentive. Everything was pristine. Cottage serviced twice a day. Fresh fruit, water and chocolates provided daily. Bottle of wine on arrival. Pool and terrace area for private use was fabulous. Jan kept us updated on load shedding ie when and if the electricity would be off, and was always available for any questions or recommendations. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Can’t wait to return.

La perfection
Un décor enchanteur autant dans l'appartement que dans le jardin privé avec piscine. Plein de petites attentions comme des chocolats et des fruits, café moulu de grande qualité, les chandelles partout dans le jardin le soir, vraiment romantique. A ne pas manquer. Près de tous.
