Lovely guest house
Felicity Haynes, South Africa
11 January 2012
I stayed at Brackens Guest House with my five-year-old son. The stay was very, very pleasant. The host and staff were great and the accommodation was very nice. It was clean and very presentable. The breakfast the following morning was fantastic and the staff were all lovely. Overall a very pleasant stopover and I would recommend them to others.
