"It’s a very well kept property which is next to main road. Host Rochelle and her husband is very welcoming and kind. We, a pack of 5 people went there to Braai, party and have a fun night and we really had a great time. Breakfast was okay. A special mention to the bread that is very well made. Thank You Rochelle for making our stay a pleasant one. We’ll see you soon. Cheers!!!"
