    Etienne was so interesting and knowledgeable about the local area and South Africa in general. The guest house was beautiful and the room we had was comfortable and very well equipped. There was WiFi ,hot water and lights during load shedding. The breakfast was tasty and generous. There was pool but too cold for us in August. A great stay, we would stay again. Location was good for the village and the national park.
