A charming little cottage - enjoyed watching the cows from the stoep, and SO appreciated the ground coffee. Well worth it. Thank you.

Loved the pet friendly - our dogs could spend some time with us which doesn't happen nearly often enough in a beautiful little unit.

We were very impressed with the structure when the mountain winds started on the 2nd night.

Superb. 5 out of 5
