Being an Airbnb host, since February this year, has been a very new thing for us. Fifty plus visits and counting.... we've loved it, and loved sharing the house with a whole bunch of people, who seem to like it.
Like this visitor who sent us a personal note and some beautiful pics.

Just wanted to send a personal belated thank you. Your cabin is a very special place and I think it should be compulsory for city people to spend time in places like this.

The wonderful Sophia Jacobs and her team have been emulating the working for water crowd and clearing the black wattle in front of the house, stretching across wetland to the mountain. It makes my heart sing.

We met Stuart the Goose yesterday, in fact he forced his way into our car and told us he has been dreaming of Suurbraak. Watch out for him on a wooden deck close by.

Lovely review posted on Travelground/Lekkeslaap.com:

Fantastiese ontwerp, uitleg en dekor in 'n baie rustige en mooi omgewing.
Ons het baie lekker hier ontspan en alles was soos beskryf. Die huisie is baie goed ontwerp, en mens het alles wat jy nodig het. Een ding om in ag te neem is dat die pad na die huis nogal rof kan wees, veral as dit gereën het. Ek sal nie aanraai om dit sonder 'n bakkie / 4x4 aan te pak nie.
