“The view of the landscape rolling into the sea is exceptional. Especially the safety. Like Nick would say it is "super safe".” - Naidu

“Very clean, comfortable and safe. Ideal place if you enjoy open spaces and the solitude. Minimal interaction with staff after the mandatory check in. They are present but out of your way, which suited us. Cell phone and Wi-Fi reception in lodge...” - René
