Good to know
Hiking:
The farms in the area are all privately owned. When walking outside the fenced area ensure that you remain on the main public road and don’t enter private property as this would be trespassing.
Smoking:
If you wish to smoke, please do so on the veranda and dispose of the cigarette buts using the ashtray. A charge will be levied to you should any evidence of smoking in the tent be found, as extra cleaning costs are involved. The tent canvas retains the smell of cigarette smoke and is unpleasant for us and future guests. PLEASE be extra careful because there is a high risk of bush fires in the area!
Housekeeping:
Please ensure that the dishes are washed before departure. Upon request, sheets and towels can be changed for guests staying longer than 4 nights. Water will be replaced in the hot tub. Please allow three hours for the full service.

One stack for the hot tub, one bag for the BBQ, Half a bag for the pizza oven.
