Ci sono solo quattro lodge più la cucina ben arredata. Alla struttura non manca niente, ma ha bisogno sicuramente di una ristrutturazione oppure di una cura migliore degli spazi, specialmente interni delle camere, più cura nei dettagli, fra i quali il tetto in paglia, perché cadono continuamente dei pezzettini. La doccia è esterna al bagno e se capitate come noi in agosto, ovvero nel loro l'inverno, cercate di non farla tanto tardi perché fuori c'è freddo. ##### Simona Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities In the bush with animals nearby.
