Tranquility at it's best!! The most amazing hidden treasure – what a location! Absolutely loved our stay! Tranquil, plenty of wildlife on the farm, LOVELY log cabins with comfortable beds and cushions. The kitchen was well stocked in terms of utensils, etc. The aircon in the cabin was a bonus for heating purposes (July). Cabins are not wheelchair-friendly. Braai facilities at every cabin, and the walking trails are well thought out – not too long, but long enough to get your daily exercise – and amazingly beautiful! The waterfall is an absolute must-see. Lovely 4x4 track too! Just a heads-up: the restaurant is currently closed (hence the 4* for customer service), which we were not aware of, and the owner is busy with major renovations on parts of the farm which can disturb the peace. They were kind enough to stop for the week while we were there, on our request – thank you to the website for facilitating. Overall experience was great. If we are ever in the vicinity again, I will definitely want to stay there again.

It was a lovely and restful stay. It was an awesome moment, got to see the waterfall and the game drive was very adventurous.

Special place in the most beautiful surroundings. The log house is well equipped and comfortable. Only found the sink in the kitchen very small.

Spesiale plek in die mooiste omgewing. Die houthuis is goed toegerus en gemaklik. Het net die opwasbak in die kombuis baie klein gevind.

Beautiful environment but property facilities not as advertised. Conditional yes to would we recommend the lodge. Fantastic setting with potential. Unfortunately, the property has an abandoned feeling about it. The lodge itself, together with the restaurant, bar and patio, were all closed, so any lodge meals were not available. We stayed in a chalet which was basic but comfortable. No towels were provided.

Not nice at all. We complained the first night about the outside lights not working at the braai area and nothing was done about it. We were not informed about the R500 cash key deposit. It is winter and very cold, but the aircon does not work on heater and the parking is far from the cottages; you have to carry all your luggage a long way. No WiFi as they advertise and no restaurant. Also no cleaning services.

Glad nie lekker nie. Ons het die eerste aand gekla oor die buite ligte wat nie werk by die braai area nie en niks is daaraan gedoen nie. Ons is nie ingelig oor die R500 kontant sleutel deposito nie. Dit is winter en baie koud, maar die aircon werk nie op heater nie en die parkering is vêr van die huisies af; jy moet al jou bagasie baie vêr dra. Geen WiFi soos hulle adverteer nie en geen restaurant nie. Ook geen skoonmaakdienste nie.

Will not recommend. Place is clean, but lots of false advertising. No cutlery in bush tent, and not advised to bring your own. The restaurant and bar are closed down, also still advertising restaurant. When I got there at 17:00, I had to drive out again to look for food, and had to drive again Saturday morning for coffee, etc.

Not value for your money. The house only had a bathtub and the taps in the bathroom were noisy and difficult to open and close. The dressing table in the room didn't have a plug, so we had to dry our hair in the kitchen. Very inconvenient. The salt shaker was empty and we had to borrow salt from the people next to us.

Nie waarde vir die jou geld nie. Die huis het net 'n bad gehad en die krane in die badkamer raas en draai moeilik oop en toe. Die spieëlkas in die kamer het nie 'n plug nie, so ons moes ons hare droogmaak in die kombuis. Baie ongerieflik. Die soutpot was leeg en ons moes sout leen by die mense langs ons.

Very peaceful and quiet, just what people need to reboot. Needed the peace and quiet. Thank you very much.

Baie rustig en stil, net wat mense nodig het om te reboot. Het die stilte en rustigheid nodig gehad. Baie dankie.
