I never write reviews as different people are happy with different types of things, but people need to be aware of how bad this place is. On arival we were not properly welcomed and was told to wait at our car, after 15min i started looking for the manager and then was told again to wait outside as they ate fixing electricity for a small dark dirty room that we didn’t book, after a lot of lying and trying to fool us we realised we were double booked and our place already had people in, the manager and owner has zero people skills and he eventually shouted at me so i much that i could see his spit flying through the air. There is no signal to phone out as the farm is 200m from the Swazi 🇸🇿 border and you have to have data roaming ready. It is not as happy or clean as the pictures. Everybody else there were complaining of no hot water in the one and half hours we were there trying to resolve the double booking.. we ended up leaving furious in the dark having to look for another place to stay.

The place is nice and quiet. Good for nature and someone who wants an escape withoutany distractions. The host is wonderful and friendly the only downside is network access

Lovely environment. The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfy. The rooms were tidy and the owners and staff were very friendly and accommodating. Everything was well decorated. My favorite thing about this place was the deck with tables over the water with the beautiful view of the Swaziland mountains. We had a lovely breakfast there and battled to leave! It was overall an excellent price for an excellent accommodation. The reason this did not receive 5 stars is that unfortunately the animal enclosures were far too small. The place was also quite hard to access as it required traveling along long uneven dirt roads. Signal is also not great, but it was perfect for us as we were able to escape the hussle and bustle of everyday life completely.

I made a booking via booking. Com after booking I immediately called the host to inform them I was on my After driving on that terrible road scarred to death with kids my phone was not answered anymore my reservation was canceled without a refund booking. Com is not answering my calls The host is arrogant selfish I don't recommend this place its not what it looks like people's safety is compromised
