We loved this Victorian cottage with its dormer windows and bedrooms in the eaves, the whispering willows in the evening breeze and the murmur of the stream below us.  But best was the run up the mountain in such dramatic surroundings  -  our lungs definitely felt the thin air!!! Lovely night stop on our way round all the passes of the Eastern Cape  -  such truly awesome scenery  -  who ever knew the Eastern Cape was keeping such secrets!!

Baie dankie vir julle warm gasvryheid en dat ons die voorreg kon hê om julle ongelooflike sterreprag te kon deel. Die kinders het die wye ooptes, spruit en dam en hanslammers terdee geniet! Soveel dat Chente al haar geld gaan spaar om ook so n spogplaas te kan koop.

Wat n onvergeetlike ondervinding. Hierdie paar dae het ons verwagtinge van n sneeu vakansie met myle oorskry. Kinmel het ons laat vergeet van die gejaag van ons lewens en ons het goeie familietyd spandeer. Dankie daarvoor en sien julle binnekort vir n sneeu, lam of visvang vakansie.

Wat n rustigheid……vir n mens se siel, verstand en liggaam. Dit was heerlik om op Kinmel plaas te vertoef. Ons het lekker gekuier, gestap, ontspan en sommer gealles. Dit is pragtig hier in die chalets en op die plaas en ons hoop ons kan verseker weer by julle kom kuier.

No skycrapers, jets, airports, customs or waiters around me. Beautiful mountains, snow, sunshine, moonlight, doves co-oing. The call of Africa what a pleasure to stay at such a wonderful place. Walk to the weir or to the waterfall. Can't beat it. Lord don't change this place. Nothing to do, what a pleasure.
