Wooden house in the mountain, beautiful place, most beautiful view and very peaceful environment. Definitely the most peaceful place I've ever stayed.

Hout huisie in die berg, pragtige plek, mooiste uitsig en baie rustige omgewing. Baie beslis die rustigste plek waar ek al oorgebly het.

Peaceful with beautiful views and clean, comfy accommodation. We stayed overnight on our way to Kruger. The accommodation was spot on: beautiful, clean and attention to detail e.g. dish soap, milk, wood, charcoal, firelighters. The views are breathtaking. The area is quiet and peaceful. And Jack (the dog) checked in on us. Highly recommended.

Good day Barry, Thank you so very much. You are always welcome here. We really enjoy having families here and especially when younger people have an experience of spending time in nature and appreciate the outdoors!

We had a very nice rest surrounded by trees, birds and mountains. We had a wonderful rest during the Easter weekend 2025. The log cabin is ideally situated among the trees in the mountains where you can enjoy the rich birdlife and very beautiful hiking trails. We saw 14 different bird species in the few days without really having to make any effort. Our hosts made us feel very at home and nothing was too much trouble for them to help us where needed. We have found a new favorite mountain hideaway!

Ons het baie lekker uitgerus omring deur bome, voëls en berge. Ons het heerlik uitgerus gedurende die Paasnaweek 2025. Die houthuisie is ideaal geleë tussen die bome in die berge waar jy jou kan verlustig in die ryk voëllewe en baie mooi staproetes. Ons het 14 verskillende voeltipes in die paar dae gesien sonder om regtig moeite te doen. Ons gashere het ons baie tuis laat voel en niks was vir hulle enige moeite om ons te help waar nodig nie. Ons het 'n nuwe gunsteling bergwegkruipplekkie gekry!

It was peaceful and the view was very beautiful. The host welcomed us generously. The house is old and needs a lot of attention. The walls in the bathroom are an eyesore and the house needs paint inside. It is a "dark" house. The stair railing is loose in the wall and on the floor - not safe at all. The outdoor shower does not feel safe under your feet, the boards are rotten and on the porch, the posts are coming loose from the fixings. The cushions of the sofa on the porch are torn in places and the wood of the bamboo set is dried out from the sun. Other than that, all the necessities were there. They could have given us another set of towels.

Dit was rustig en die uitsig is baie mooi. Die gasheer het ons gul ontvang. Die huisie is oud en kort baie, baie aandag. Die mure in die badkamer is die seerste oog en die huisie kort verf binne. Dit is 'n "donker" huisie. Die trapreeling is los in die muur en op die vloer - glad nie veilig nie. Die buite stort voel nie veilig onder jou voete nie, die planke is verrot en op die stoep is paaltjies besig om los te kom van die reëlings af. Die kussings van die bank op die stoep is plek-plek geskeur en die hout van die bamboesstel is uitgedroog van die son. Verder was alle noodsaaklikhede daar. Hulle kon ons nog 'n stel handdoeke gegee het.

Peace, nature, and wonderful hospitality. We had such a great time. The wonderful nature and mountains are something out of the books. The hospitality was wonderful. If we come to that area again, we will definitely stay there again. Thank you very much.

Rus, natuur, en wonderlike gasvryheid. Ons het so lekker gerus. Die wonderlike natuur en berge is iets uit die boeke. Die gasvryheid was wonderlik. As ons weer in daardie omgewing kom, bly ons beslis weer daar. Baie dankie.

Breathtaking. It was fantastic; the kids enjoyed every minute. Mr Wayne was welcoming and made sure that we had everything we needed even before we arrived.

Had a great time at this special place. Wow, what a privilege to be able to stay in such a special place! We spent 4 nights in the Houthuisie in October. Beautiful view of the surrounding mountains and Barbeton. It's quite old, not very spacious, but excellently equipped and we quickly fell in love with it. The Berghuisie definitely has a more spacious porch and will be cooler, because it is made of stone. The photos on the website show the Berghuisie, definitely more spacious and more luxurious than the Houthuisie. We booked there, but apparently there was a problem with the water pump when we arrived. First day was terribly hot, as only a log house can be, but after that it was cooler. The splash pool is small, but nice for cooling off. The owner is very nice and goes out of his way to help where needed, without being intrusive. The location is fantastic, about a few kilometers uphill with a fairly good but steep dirt road which gave our Jimny 4x4 no problems. Barbeton offers lots of things to do, we did the Eureka city and Eureka Pass with Wynand from Dusty Tracks, also the old gold mine and it was well worth the money. The geo-trail was also a revelation and we packed a nice picnic for the route.

Heerlik gekuier op hierdie spesiale plekkie. Sjoe, wat 'n voorreg om op so 'n spesiale plekkie te kon bly! Ons het 4 nagte oorgeslaap in die Houthuisie in Oktober. Pragtige uitsig oor omliggende bergskap en Barbeton. Dis redelik oud, nie baie ruim, maar uitstekend toegerus en ons het sommer gou daarop verlief geraak. Die Berghuisie het beslis 'n ruimer stoep en sal koeler wees, want dis van klip. Die fotos op die webwerf wys die Berghuisie, beslis ruimer en meer luuks as die Houthuisie. Ons het daar bespreek, maar daar was glo 'n probleem met die waterpomp met ons aankoms. Eerste dag was vreeslik warm, soos net 'n houthuis kan wees, maar daarna was dit koeler weer. Die plonspoel is klein, maar lekker vir afkoel. Die eienaar is baie gaaf en gaan uit sy pad om te help waar nodig, sonder om opdringerig te wees. Die ligging is fantasties, so 'n paar kilometers bergop met 'n redelike goeie maar steil grondpad wat ons Jimny 4x4 geen probleme gegee het nie. Barbeton bied baie dinge om te doen, ons het die Eureka stad en Eureka Pas gedoen met Wynand van Dusty Tracks, ook die ou goudmyn en dit was oor en oor die geld werd. Die geo-trail was ook 'n openbaring en ons het 'n lekker piekniek ingepak vir die roete.
