Me and my girlfriend stayed for one night during our trip from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth. I wish we could have stayed longer due this place was so lovely and Tanja was such a great host who helped out who she could and had a lot of good recommendations around the area. I would definitely like to come back

Alles war sehr sauber und Tanja stand immer mit Rat & Tat zur Seite. Zum Frühstück gab es eine kleine Menükarte aus der man jeden Tag auswählen kann. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und werden das GH gern weiter empfehlen. Vielen Dank für ALLES!
