Wonderful stay,13 July 2008
Thanks for a wonderful stay, it was really much better than we expected. The braais in the evenings were really a perfect end to our fantastic days in the Kruger park (just 10 minutes away). Our hosts Phil and Margie were really friendly and helpful with everything from booking a guide for Kruger to booking a restaurant and showing us the best roads in the Kruger park. The luxurious rooms and nice breakfast just added to the great experience.
Thanks so much, we will come back!

It was very nice and the unit was stunning, all the small detail made it perfect. Phil and Margi was so friendly and helpful. They will definitely see us again. They need an extra star - to be 5-Star.
