    One or two mosquitoes - come prepared with mozzie repellent.

    The chalet was very clean and well equipped. The grounds are peaceful and quiet, and perfect for young kids. Bedding was good quality, comfortable and warm. Great value.

    The peacefulness, the quiet atmosphere. The animal and bird life was such a joy to behold. We also enjoyed watching and learning as we spectated at a game of croquet. This was a first for us.

    Nothing to note.

    Quiet, beautiful setting and everything you need to enjoy a break away from the hustle and bustle. 3 bedrooms, a kitchen with everything and a really nice patio with braai. Overlooking the green grass and animals.

    Perhaps the loadshedding affecting everyone else. During loadshedding we had fully charged lights for all the rooms so I suggest taking a few games with to play during loadshedding.

    The place was great. On arrival, everything was neat and clean. All the necessary things you'd expect at a cottage was there. The braai area, the swim pool, the parking space, the children's play area and ofcos the TV facilities (Full dish package, wifi etc.),it was all great.

    The beds available shown on bookings.com differs from what was actually available. The house has 2 rooms each with a double bed and one room with 2 single beds. The layout on bookings.com shows room 1 has 2 single beds and 2 double beds. The group consisted of a mother, her 17 year old daughter and 3 boys. The 3 boys were supposed to sleep in room 1. They sorted the sleeping out but the information on bookings.com should be updated to show the actual bed arrangement. Despite the above the group had a wonderful time

    Beautiful safe environment Cheryl was extremely helpful and kind and I can recommend her place. The comment on what we did not like can easily be sorted out and did not spoil the holiday.

    This is nothing that the host or facilities can change, but worth a mention that the loadshedding makes for a real challenge in respect of cooking as the stove and oven are electric. We tried braai-ing but the wood was very wet. When all else fails, hit the restaurants in the Waterfront, which are great. We experienced allot of mosquito's and are prone to bites, so would recommend insect repellent, an LED light and some cards/board games to bring along with you.

    The location was great, and near enough to walk to the lagoon. The accommodation had more than we expected, with the extensive wildlife in and around the accommodation being a real treat. The accommodation had tennis rackets and balls, beach accessories and an umbrella. We always had hot water, the rooms were warm, washing and drying facilities nearby make a huge difference when holidaying over a colder period (bring along many R5 coins), and the percolator for coffee topped off a fantastic weekend.
