Ein Highlight unserer fast vierwöchigen Südafrika Reise war diese Unterkunft (das Cottage). Toll zwischen zwei Kuger-Park Gates gelegen und sehr gut ausgestattet bietet es alles was man sich wünscht. Der Pool, der Grill, die Küche, alles super. Tolle Gastgeber!!!
Wenn demnächst das neue Kabel für das Internet in den Ort verlegt ist, gibt es 10 Punkte. Leider haben wir zu spät mitbekommen, dass man mit dem Gastgeber auch eine Tour in den KRUGER-Park buchen kann.

Perfect for what we needed!
Sharon was very welcoming and accommodating. The cottage is only 15 min drive from the Malelane gate and 30 min drive from crocodile bridge gate so you have plenty of options! The area seemed quiet and safe - Would definitely stay again. Thank you Sharon!

Fantastic getaway
Sharon and Andy are terrific hosts and the cottage could not be more comfortable. Tastefully designed and decorated, it has everything you need for a restful stay. It's also very close to Kruger NP. Highly recommend.
