Real bonus that there was a hot blanket on the bed! Only there for a short one night stay, but I checked and it seemed like all the necessary utensils etc were in place!

“COMFORTABLE SPACIOUS GARDEN SELF CATERING UNIT WITH MOBILE BRAAI”
Really a lovely place to stay at - so close to Kingswood which was convenient. Loved the garden which had a mobile braai, the unit size was awesome and very spacious. The bed was super comfy with great pillows/linen and TV with DSTV bouquet for some down time between sport games. For parents traveling to support at the various schools - definitely a great place as there are 3 units on the property which could be booked out by a parent group that travels together.
