The cottage was used during college vacation. The perfect place to relax, with free fibre wi-fi. A safe venue, with lots to explore in the region, especially outdoor activities, and some local hang out spots for young adults. Easy access to the City Centre for student learnership during vacay, using the local highway Wanting to be near the coast and mountain regions in the Southern Peninsula, really enjoyed this stay.
