Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Verified reviewgood

We stayed in the 1 bedroom cottage. The caretaker was very helpful. The facility was pleasant and comfortable. There were/will be small things that the staff take care of quickly. There is wifi but no TV. The drive from Mooi River is a fair distance, the stretch of gravel road is in good condition. Take your own toiletries and towels. I recommend a high-riding vehicle no sedans.
