Peaceful and comfortable stay in the mountains. Beautiful peaceful place in the Drakensberg, a stone's throw from the N3, with old historical buildings and giant oak trees where you can enjoy a walk and relax. The accommodation is spacious with everything you need and a friendly hostess and staff. Had a great sleep, ate, walked and went to see the special rock art.

Rustige en gemaklike verblyf in die berge. Pragtige rustige plek in die Drakensberge, hanetreetjie van die N3, met ou historiese geboue en reuse akkerbome waar mens lekker kan kuier en ontspan. Die verblyf is ruim met alles wat nodig is en 'n vriendelike gasvrou en staf. Het lekker geslaap, geëet, gestap en na die besondere rotskuns gaan kyk.

Awesome. Very nice stay. The owners were incredibly helpful! The rooms were comfortable. The food was delicious. Will definitely stay there again!

Baie lekker verblyf. Die eienaars was ongelooflik hulpvaardig! Woefies was gemaklik. Kos was lekker. Sal definitief weer daar gaan bly!

Thank you very much for your hospitality. We were impressed with the peaceful, relaxed atmosphere of Oban. Thank you very much.

Baie dankie vir julle gasvryheid. Ons was beïndruk met die rustige, ontspanne atmosfeer van Oban. Baie dankie.

It was a lovely half-way overnight stop. We had a very good night's sleep and the food was delicious. Thank you very much.

Dit was 'n heerlike halfpad oornagstop gewees. Ons het baie lekker oorgeslaap en kos was heerlik. Baie dankie.

A disappointing experience. Very disappointing place - very old, cracked and dilapidated buildings, untidy gardens and grounds, rusty tin roofs. No cell phone reception on either network. Basic amenities were OK though e.g. electric blankets, hot water, breakfast, but there was a big rising damp problem in our bedroom. I don't live in anything that looks as neglected as this place and I certainly would prefer not to stay in such a place. The high ratings stated on the website are very misleading.

Dinner was delicious! Oban is under new management. At this farm surrounded by koppieland and koppie mountain, our family had a comfortable stay, the staff was attentive and we look forward to future renovation projects!

Aandete was lekker! Oban is onder nuwe bestuur. By hierdie plaas omsingel koppieland en koppie-berg, ons gesin het gemaklik gebly, die personeel was oplettend en ons sien uit na toekomstige opknappingsprojekte!

Warm welcome, delicious breakfast and dinner. Worth an overnight stop. Delicious fresh farm air, beautiful surroundings, peaceful.

Warm ontvangs, heerlike ontbyt en aandete. Moeite werd oornag stop. Heerlike vars plaaslug, mooi omgewing, rustig.

Hi Jodie, I'm truly surprised at this. We explained that we are new owners and we're busy with a massive overhaul of the property. We purchased it in a far worse state. With four cottages and 14 rooms, it's going to take some time. We went out of our way to make your stay comfortable and at no point did you indicate that you were unhappy or that you needed anything when I checked with you, several times. I'm sorry that you expected five-star accommodation at a one star price. Perhaps a farm stay isn't something you should consider in the future. The guest farm is 102 years old; the buildings are old. The furniture is antique. I'm also sorry that you missed the beauty by which you were surrounded. You seemed to have enjoyed yourself in the lounge by the fireplace.

Hallo Jodie, Ek is werklik verbaas hieroor. Ons het verduidelik dat ons nuwe eienaars is en ons is besig met 'n massiewe opknapping van die eiendom. Ons het dit in 'n baie slegter toestand gekoop. Met vier kothuise en 14 kamers gaan dit ’n rukkie neem. Ons het uit ons pad gegaan om jou verblyf gemaklik te maak en jy het op geen stadium aangedui dat jy ongelukkig is of dat jy iets nodig het toe ek verskeie kere by jou gekontroleer het nie. Ek is jammer dat jy vyfsterverblyf teen 'n eensterprys verwag het. Miskien is 'n plaasverblyf nie iets wat jy in die toekoms moet oorweeg nie. Die gasteplaas is 102 jaar oud; die geboue is oud. Die meubels is antiek. Ek is ook jammer dat jy die skoonheid waardeur jy omring was gemis het. Dit het gelyk of jy jou in die sitkamer by die kaggel geniet het.
