    It is easy to give a good review when things go perfectly, but it is when things don't go smoothly and the property owner makes an exceptional effort to put things right, that reviews really matter. I turned up to my booking to find the property...

We speak French, German, Afrikaans and we are eager to welcome you in the beautiful little Karoo
