What a great place!! Location is fantastic for Kruger (10mins drive) and beautiful views over the river into the park! The whole place is clean and tidy with good amenities and facilities. The restaurant is convenient and the food was very good. Friendly and attentive staff. All in all a lovely property that I would definitely stay at again quite happily! And especially good value for the price!
