The brightest stars will wish you good night & you will wake up to the crow of the cockerel, the bleating of goats & locals singing from surrounding huts. Lindiwe runs the local creche voluntarily. Any help is needed! Give the children a head start by reading & speaking English with them. Hike & explore the areas breathtaking coastline & river estuaries. Feel wild & free! The space The beach and river is 3.5 kms walk away You will need a high clearance vehicle due to the dirt track to the hut Ensure you fill up with petrol as the closest petrol station is an hour away There are no ATMS so it's advisable to bring cash to buy local beadwork and seafood caught by the locals Cooking will be on a fire. Meals can be arranged if 48 hours notice given. Breakfast and lunches are R40 and dinner is R70. There is a small shop selling very basic items As there is no shower or electricity, a suggestion would be to follow your homestay by booking accommodation so you can have a hot shower and a few comforts at one of the self catering cottages, search the web for 'Transkei Cottage Qora' or there is full board available at the Kob Inn hotel Other things to note You may prefer to pitch a tent and camp instead!
