    Slipway is a good location for a visit to Addo Elephant Park and surrounding attractions. Cosy accomodation and the children had a lot of fun experiencing the Jacuzzi

    Mooi appartement op de bovenverdieping van een huis. Alles wat je nodig hebt is er. We mochten gebruikmaken van de jacuzzi, dat was erg fijn! Mooie uitvalsbasis voor als je naar Addo Elephant Park gaat, de zuidingang ligt op 10 minuutjes rijden.
