LOADSHEDDING: We do have an inverter for lights and TV to help with loadshedding, but ask that no heating appliances are used if it is loadshedding as sometimes it causes the inverter to trip. There is a gas plate for the kettle and a gas cooker if needed during load shedding. Our area for ‘Eskom Se Push’ app is Jeffreys Bay (10). There is a drought in Eastern Cape, so we request that you use water sparingly. Occasionally, the municipality will ‘throttle’ the water if dams are low.

Establishment Facilities:
