Lovely surroundings. Abundant fruit trees.. Very peaceful except for the rooster and the water pump very close to our cottage. Lovely renovated kitchen and bathroom. Beds comfortable. Towels werent up to accomodation standard. The lounge suite smelled musty. Overall a nice place to stay, just a few small things could be easily fixed.
