What a tranquil farm, situated in beautiful surroundings and majestic mountains. A welcome break from city life. We stayed over for one night on our way to Plett and wished that we had more time to enjoy the peace. The little cottage had everything needed for a couple. We have been enjoying the farm-produced jams and liqueurs that we purchased... More

Was a dissapointing experience. Reception not very welcoming. Cleanliness of cottage not up to standard. Bedding and furniture old and not comfortable any more. Will not return. Could have gotten better accomodation for the money spent

The estate located a short distance from town, allowing travelers to enjoy nature and its beauty combined with the tranquility of a country like environment. Although the cottage was actually a relatively old house, it was fully functional, very spacious and the kids just loved the huge rose garden. Although it's designed for families who came for several nights, it... More

As always staying with you is an exceptional experience. Wonderful reception, lovely facilities. Beautiful, peaceful surroundings. It is a lovely stopover for us on our way to Cape Town and just far enough either way.

What a lovely laid back place to stay. My husband and I slept over for only 1 night but highly recommend a long weekend to soak up the magnificent view, peace and quiet. Our cottage was more than adequately equipped for self catering purposes and there was a lovely veranda to braai/barbeque. It is a short trip into town where... More
