This is a lovely little place, set in its own garden and convenient both for arrival from the Garden Route and for the airport. Rooms are enormous and beautifully appointed, with palatial bathrooms!

That, plus the fact that we wanted to have a nice dinner before flying home, and the positive... More

We left Chobe National Park in the morning and, after the Zambezi river crossing, a flight from Livingston to Jo'berg, and a final flight from Jo'berg to P. E. we were exhausted and late for dinner.
