Beautiful property and great location! Room was small but adequate. The bathroom was very clean, great shower. Bed was comfortable but sheets and pillows could do with upgrade, and pillows had no pillow protectors.

I stayed at Biggy Best Cottage in the middle of winter for one night. Initially I thought I might be cold in KZN's midlands, but the electric blanket did the trick and what a comfy bed!

The place smells of poop ! No proper plumbing. Hot water barely works. Some staff are great. Some Staff behave with such a HOSTILE ATTITUDE as if we were on a free holiday, when in fact we've spent thousands there !!! We were there a few times and sometimes got a better rate. We paid our Bills fare and square, no problem there. Then absolute hostility that should never be dished out to a well paying Customer is shocking ! No recommendations here. Poor Service all round too. No manners ONE of the Receptionist has.
