COMMENTS FROM CHARTER US TOURS : I TRAVELED WITH A LOW-PROFILE SEDAN ON A GRAVEL ROAD FOR ABOUT 25KM. FOUND IT ACCEPTABLE. I WAS SHOWN 2 DELIGHTFUL COTTAGES BY JANA, EACH WITH 2 BEDROOMS. THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO FOR STARGAZING, HIKING, RELAXING IN A QUANT LITTLE SPLASH POOL, READING A NOVEL OR JUST ENJOYING QUIETNESS AND WONDERFUL VIEWS! JOHAN KLOPPER, FEBRUARY 2024.
