"During February this year my husband and I ventured beyond the Boerewors curtain in Gauteng to beautifully scenic Plettenberg Bay. As the parents of very busy twin boys, who are now 4 years old, this was our weekend time to recoup, recharge and reintroduce ourselves to each other. We had the pleasure of staying at The Dunes resort which is welcoming and cosy. I couldn’t help but take a photo of the notice in our bathroom that Plettenberg Bay is a draught stricken area – so keep the door closed!" Elizabeth Storbeck
