Trash

Trash must be put out in a black tied trash bag. Please take bag to the gate on Thursdays.

You are responsible to remove your own trash or there shall be a minimum penalty of R500 for all trash left on the property.

Please do not flush any nappies, women’s hygiene products, chemicals or any other man made products, except toilet paper, down the toilet. This is a nature reserve and we still use a septic tank system, which affects the surrounding environment. Please use the special bins provided in the toilets for tampons, nappies etc. Thank you for your cooperation on this matter.

Damages

The property must be left in the same condition it was found In, other than dirty linen and towels. Any damages will be deducted from your security deposit. Please report any damages to us straight away.

There will be a check-out inspection on Monday mornings normally at 8.00am or some cases immediately after your stay. Please hand over all keys and remotes to our representative before your leave. Lost keys and/or remotes will be deducted from the security deposit.

The following breakage deposits are required before arrival, which is fully refundable after check out if there are no issues during your stay:

Both units: R5,000
Dreamview Lodge: R4,000
Glass Suite: R2,500

Fires

The wood fire braai may only be used if there is no severe wind because of the risk of fire. Please check with us to see if there might be a problem. There is a gas braai that can be used if the wind is too severe. If a moderate wind is blowing, then please close the sliding doors while the fire is happening to prevent the smell of fire in the house. If both units are booked separately, the braai, deck and Jacuzzi are shared.

One bag of wood is included in your stay. Additional bags at R55 each.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Safety

Please be aware that there is an electric fence around the house. Do not touch!

There are baboons roaming in the area. Please keep the windows closed when you are not physically present on the property — just in case an opportunistic baboon inspects and enters the property while you are away. Thank you for your understanding.
