There were also nice biscuits and instant porridge for us in the house. The house was comfortable and clean. The view from the veranda was breathtaking and the peace and quiet for a tired holidaymaker is, as the people would say, priceless.

Located approximately twenty kilometers north of Gariep, Lushof is perfect as overnight accommodation for journeys between Johannesburg and Cape Town or P.E. Already 14 years in operation and equipped with everything needed for self-catering, up to an outdoor braai with wood and a braai grill. Neat and clean two-room units sleeping 5 adults with TV and air conditioning at the most affordable price imaginable.
