Convenient location for us as a family. Older, established property but clean and comfortable. Unfortunately South African load shedding took over and we were without power for many hours that we were there.

Hospitality

The manager was very enthusiastic to assist us. Not only did he introduce a good restaurant to us but also offered to take us there and back by his car! He also checked which shops sold the binoculars we wanted for game viewing and offered to take us there. When we found out the shop which we could go there by Gautrain, he gave us a ride to train station. He printed a map and highlighted our route to Greater Kruger. When he was unable to take us to car rental company, he arranged others to do so. We were taken good care of. Highly recommended!
