⚠️ Please Note
- Our home is set on the edge of a beautiful wildlife reserve, so you may occasionally spot some of the local visitors — including baboons who wander down from the mountain. They’re curious, not dangerous, and will happily move along if left undisturbed. We’re fortunate to have a fantastic baboon ranger team who walks with them guides them back up the mountain. For your comfort, we simply recommend keeping doors and windows closed when you’re not in the room or house, and avoiding interaction with them.
- Not suitable for children under 12 due to open windows
- Quiet neighbourhood: no loud music after 10pm (weekends) / 9pm (weeknights).
- the outdoor bath has hot water but it not a traditional hot tub / jacuzzi and is not wood fired. It's got hot water coming out the taps. Big enough for 2
- to stay compliant, we do require that all guests complete a guest verification facilitated by Truvi. It requires your ID and signing of our T&Cs. Thank you.
Guest Access:
Guests will access to the whole property.
Other Things to Note:
One cleaning service and linen change is included for guests staying 7+ days. Additional cleans are available at R400 per day. Please request in advance.
We at this stage are unable to facilitate 3rd party service providers due to Liability shortcomings from the platform.
Please note that for compliance purposes, we do require guests to go through a verification process with Truvi including collection of ID and signing of T&Cs. They will email you upon confirmation. Should you not wish to go through with that, we will respectfully have to cancel the reservation
