Milkwood Cottage exceeded our expectations. It was a really relaxing stay, and very tranquil. The weather we had didn’t

Pros: The property is really beautiful and has all amenities required.

Cons: The road to reach the property is not that great, but we had a 4X4 which is recommended, especially in the rain.

An excellent place for the right kind of guest

Pros: The apartment was nice, clean, and well equipped; overall we had a pleasant stay. You are remote and it takes some work to get there, but if you plan to come and stay at the lodge and not go in and out a lot, or if you don't mind the 30 minute drive to everything, it's a great location.

Cons: As other reviews noted, it's a 30 minute drive to the reception area, and the last 10 minutes of it is a dirt road - some parts of it are a bit dodgy if you're not in a high rise. Also, the wifi doesn't really reach the apartment; fortunately we had MTN service out there pretty good. Also, actually finding the place wasn't hard, per se, but also wasn't super easy. We never did get a pin to the actual house, so the last 10 minutes on the dirt road was a bit confusing where it actually was. The host gave us directions, but they weren't 100% clear if you've never been there before. And when we finally got to the property gate, there was no one to meet us and another guest had to let us in. So, could definitely improve in the check-in department.
