A great house in a great location. If golf is on your list then this is the place to stay. One course 300m away and 4 more within 15km. If the beach is more your thing, again a great location. Granny’s pool is a lovely sea pool with golden sand and plenty of space and is a must visit, even if just for the evening to watch the sun go down over the distant cliffs. Southbroom Beach is a 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk and with the lagoon alongside caters for all needs. Fishing, canoeing, kite surfing, surf school and body boarding are all available or you can spend £10 and buy a bodyboard and have endless fun. With the ‘Riptide’ restaurant and the option to BBQ at the side of the beach there is also plenty of food and drink available.

If shopping takes your fancy then a short drive takes you to the shopping Malls of Shelly Beach. Be sure to take your wallet!

If all of this is not enough then you should visit MacBananas activity centre and farm shop where Zip lines, Segways, Quad tours and Paintballing are some of the activities available less then 10 minutes away from the house.

If you wish to travel a little further then Oribi Gorge (wildlife park, longest zip line tour in Africa and suspension bridge) is less than 45 minutes drive and Durban itself 1 1/2 hours and no end of fun and activities available.

For the slightly more adventurous then a number of safari parks are a few hours drive to the North. I would strongly recommend Thanda Safari Park and Hippo Hideaway in St Lucia. Amazing places.

The house itself was outstanding and a very high standard of cleanliness throughout. The rooms were very good sizes and the kitchen had all the mod-cons you would expect. TV for the kids and air con when it was hot all just made it feel that much more like a home.

The real jewel in the crown though was the pool. Our kids would have spent all day in there if we let them.

Overall a real 5 star house and location that I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.
