Pluto powered sand site
Liked: Friendly and professional lady at reception. Nice and quiet - only two other camp sites were occupied. Facilities at the camp site were great - car port, basin with water and braai facilities.
Disliked: Ablution facility was probably about 200 meters away from the camping site. Other campers possibly tried to adjust the gas geyser at the ablution with the result that it did not heat the water well - this could be addressed by putting instructions on or next to the geyser (just a suggestion).
