The morning coffee and the Sun downer drinks in the...

👍👍 What a fantastic stay, we drove from JHB that day and arrived to a calm, quiet and beautiful place. Often we stay in hotels after long drives but choose this great place instead. We made a fire after we arrived and had wine under the brightest stars. A real gem of a place. Would stay again!
