Baie potensiaal, maar verblyf te basies. ‘n Lagie verf hier en daar sal goed wees. Opregte rugsakverblyf.

Basic but decent accommodation. Nice friendly owners and good food. Rooms are basic but completely adequate for a bike ride stop-over and lovely atmosphere in the pub during the evening, with a nice welcoming fire. I will stay there again – thanks!

Kommunikasie was uitstekend. Baie goed ontvang en tenthuis pragtig en netjies. Lekkerste ontbyt was voorberei. Awesome. Nie almal wat van troeteldiere om jou hou, maar nie gepla. Kry meer tente vir verblyf asook opslaan-geriewe. Verder baie lekker gewees.
