I stayed at Biggy Best Cottage in the middle of winter for one night. Initially I thought I might be cold in KZN's midlands, but the electric blanket did the trick and what a comfy bed!

The place smells of poop ! No proper plumbing. Hot water barely works. Some staff are great. Some Staff behave with such a HOSTILE ATTITUDE as if we were on a free holiday, when in fact we've spent thousands there !!! We were there a few times and sometimes got a better rate. We paid our Bills fare and square, no problem there. Then absolute hostility that should never be dished out to a well paying Customer is shocking ! No recommendations here. Poor Service all round too. No manners ONE of the Receptionist has.

i visited the facility on a very cold winters night in May, and i believe that they could have done a little better in terms of blankets that evening
