Amenities
The location is absolutely fabulous, situated right by the tidal pool which was great for swimming in and taking long walks in both directions. The views were incredible with fabulous views of the sea. a better position you couldn't get. The house was very spacious with numerous entertainment spaces, when its windy you can braai in the internal braai area and the 2nd night was beautiful and calm and we could braai on the deck. Lots of various seating area. We really enjoyed the games available and many an evening was spent playing cards and the entertainment room downstairs with the pool table also was thoroughly enjoyed. We really enjoyed our stay as a family from young to old.
