There are many out there that believe that a self catering holiday is an oxymoron as if you are cooking for yourself, then you might as well be at home. This might be true, but there is something to be said about the true luxury accommodation that is Harry’s Getaways self catering accommodation.

The pros or self catering accommodation far outweigh the cons, but they are both worth mentioning so that you can make up your own mind whether a self catering holiday is right for you and your family to bond, relax and unwind.

The Pros of self catering

Among some of the more commonly thought of pro’s of luxury self catering accommodation is the pure luxury that is on offer. The accommodation has been furnished with your comfort and relaxation in mind to ensure that you relax and enjoy your home away from home.

Self catering accommodation allows you to come and go as you please and not be restricted to specific meal times offered by the lodge or the hotel. You can also be in charge of making sure that you don’t have to sit through a meal that is not cooked to your liking or contains items that you cannot stand.

Harry’s Getaway accommodation are all kitted out with first class kitchens and outside entertainment areas to really enjoy the African skies at night either at the Hartbeespoort Dam in Magaliesburg or in Ballito Bay.

Getting the family together while on holiday to share in the preparation of food is in itself a joy and great bonding opportunity for the whole family.

Harry’s self catering accommodation has open plan kitchens which allow for the entire family to be involved, as opposed to one person being stuck in the kitchen while everyone else is off playing outside or watching TV.

The Cons of self catering

There are very few cons to self catering accommodation. The major con that most would quickly point out is that cooking while on holiday is not very relaxing for the one doing the cooking. After the meal is prepared, there is still the question of who is going to do the painful task of washing up.

Harry’s Getaways luxury self catering accommodation has ensured that this con is dealt with swiftly. Each accommodation that you have to choose from comes with a dish washing machine as standard in the state of the art kitchens. The self cleaning kettle braai’s outside also ensure that even when the cold coals need to be cleared way before the next evenings fire, it is with the minimum of effort.
