Perfect stay with a stunning view

Pros: We had an absolutly amazing time at the UmVangati House and it was a perfect start for our journey through South Africa! Such a warm welcoming, fantastic rooms, perfectly clean, delicious food and the view - overwhelming! We could have spend all day enjoying the calm, watching the landscape and the various animals at the water hole while listening to the birds. And when we had trouble with our car we didn't even have to ask, they immediatly helped us and arranged a switch of our rented car. Thank you so much, you are absolutely lovely!
