Imagine a bakery that makes the best milk tarts in all of South Africa, and only one or two of them a year. If you like milk tarts and were fortunate enough to find it, you’d want to keep it a secret… right? Well, think of Elephant Rock as that milk tart—a rare treat that, given my one or two trips a year here, I’m reluctant to share. :)
ER has everything someone craving a secluded getaway could ask for: the open sky, fireplace(s), 4-legged friends (Jack Russell Terriers), and the space to enjoy it all. The pictures only hint at the serenity there. Walking up every morning to the rustling trees and mountain views was fantastic.
The space was well-equipped, clean, and tastefully decorated with just about everything I needed. I particularly enjoyed the modern kitchen and it’s appliances, and plenty of outdoor entertaining space. It’s clear Thomas and his wife, Micki, thought a lot about how a traveler might want to use the space, what would make them feel comfortable and well cared for.
I can’t say enough about how wonderful my stay was and just want to thank T, M (J & C) again for making it so perfect!
