Heerlikste naweekwegbreek!

Pragtig gerestoureerde verblyf, wat puik en keurig ingerig is. Heerlik gekuier op die stoep en langsaan (met uitsig oor dam en begin van die Rûens). Die warmbad is 'n uitstekende toevoeging, en loer gerus in by die proelokaal (met hul ewe vriendelike personeel). Ons kom beslis weer!

Most delicious weekend getaway!

Beautifully restored accommodation, which is superbly and neatly furnished. Lovely time on the stoep and next door (with a view of the dam and the beginning of the Rûens). The hot tub is an excellent addition, and feel free to stop by the tasting room (with their equally friendly staff). We will definitely come again!

Rustige plaas kuier - perfek vir gesinne.

Ons was 2 gesinne met 4 seuns wat in die renovated cellar gebly het. Die grondpad na die huisies is redelik sinkplaat, maar is heeltemal toeganklik vir 'n gewone sedan voertuig. Selfoonsein is nie fantasties nie en daar is nie WiFi nie. Die huisies is 2km vanaf die proe-lokaal, waar daar WiFi is. Jy moet weer met die grondpad soontoe ry. Hoewel ons nie by die venue was nie, lyk dit wel mooi van buite, met swaaie vir die kinders. Die huis is intussen verander - daar is 'n muur langs die stoep bygebou met 'n hot tub. Dit gebruik redelik hout om warm te hou. (Ons het vir die 3 dae 2 sakke hout gebruik). 1 sak hout word verskaf, verder kan jy koop by die plaas. Daar is 2 en-suite badkamers, sovel as nog 2 vol badkamers en 'n aparte toilet langs die kombuis (5 toilette in totaal). Die kombuis is uitstekend toegerus, met ekstra vadoeke in die laaie. Die enigste goed wat ons ekstra sou waardeer het, was 'n vlieëplak, emmer en vloer lap en vatlappe vir warm skottels. Daar is beeste op die plaas - ons moes maar vensters en deure toehou vir die vlieë. Die mikrogolfoond is te hoog - ons het dit afgeskuif na onder, want dis onveilig om 'n warm bak van daardie hoogte af te haal. Die bloekombos stap moet jy eerder sien as 'n wandeling in die natuur. Daar is nie 'n duidelike pad nie en baie takke en boomstompe wat dit versper. Dis egter pragtig om met sononder daar langs die dam te staan en luister na die voëls en paddas. Ons het in die berg gaan stap en 'n baie groot trop bobbejane in die kranse gekry. Dit is 'n klipperige pad en jy het goeie skoene daarvoor nodig. Kry 'n lekker stapstok langs die pad om te help. Daar is nog 'n staproete bo by die dam. Die kinders het die roei en swem by die dam baie geniet. Jy kan met die fietse soontoe ry of as jy oefening wil kry, die 2km soontoe stap. Dit is ook toeganklik per 4x4 voertuig. Daar is 'n sekuriteitslig wat heelnag brand, maar die vensters het goeie blokout gordyne en blindings dat dit nie pla wanneer jy slaap nie. Die naweek op Boschrivier was baie lekker en ons sal dit vir seker aanbeveel. Onthou net om voor die tyd te vra indien die DSTV aangeskakel moet word. Dankie vir al julle raad en vriendelikheid. Dit was lekker om ook bietjie van die geskiedenis van die geboue te hoor.

Peaceful farm visit - perfect for families.

We were 2 families with 4 boys who stayed in the renovated cellar. The dirt road to the cottages is quite corrugated, but is completely accessible for a regular sedan vehicle. Cell phone signal is not great and there is no WiFi. The cottages are 2km from the tasting room, where there is WiFi. You have to drive there again on the dirt road. Although we were not at the venue, it does look nice from the outside, with swings for the children. The house has since been changed - a wall next to the porch has been added with a hot tub. It uses quite a bit of wood to keep warm. (We used 2 bags of wood for the 3 days). 1 bag of wood is provided, otherwise you can buy from the farm. There are 2 en-suite bathrooms, as well as 2 more full bathrooms and a separate toilet next to the kitchen (5 toilets in total). The kitchen is excellently equipped, with extra dish towels in the drawers. The only things we would have appreciated extra were a fly swatter, bucket and floor cloth and dish cloths for hot dishes. There are cattle on the farm - we just had to close windows and doors for the flies. The microwave oven is too high - we moved it down because it's unsafe to pick up a hot bowl from that height. You should see the eucalyptus walk rather than a walk in nature. There is no clear path and many branches and tree stumps blocking it. However, it is beautiful to stand next to the pond at sunset and listen to the birds and frogs. We went for a walk in the mountain and found a very large herd of baboons in the cliffs. It is a rocky road and you need good shoes for it. Get a nice walking stick along the way to help. There is another hiking trail up by the dam. The children really enjoyed paddling and swimming at the pond. You can ride the bikes there or if you want to get some exercise, walk the 2km there. It is also accessible by 4x4 vehicle. There is a security light that burns all night, but the windows have good blackout curtains and blinds so that it doesn't disturb you when you sleep. The weekend on Bosch River was very enjoyable and we would definitely recommend it. Just remember to ask ahead of time if the DSTV needs to be switched on. Thank you for all your advice and kindness. It was nice to also hear a bit about the history of the buildings.

Die perfekte plek vir batterye laai.

Dankie vir 'n wonderlike naweek op Boschrivier. Ons het heeltemal ontspan - en die KolKol op die stoep was 'n massiewe bonus! Die huisie is perfek geleë en smaakvol ingerig. Ideaal vir natuurliefhebbers wat graag die berge wil verken.

Baie lekker en gerieflik met boere gasvryheid!

Hartlike ontvangs en vir ons familie-reünie was dit die ideale plek, elkeen in 'n aparte huis. Die plaas-atmosfeer het bygedra tot 'n heerlike familiebyeenkoms en die eienaars was gedurig beskikbaar. Baie baie lekker saam gekuier!

Very nice but can improve.

Very cute place. The wind blew quite a bit every day but that's just the weather. Very comfortable except for the hot days it was very difficult to sleep. I went to buy 2 fans otherwise we wouldn't be able to sleep. Saw many bugs and a snake too. It's apparently common. Nice Jacuzzi on the porch. Not really a view. Overall nice but doubt I would go again especially with small children. Bed linen and towels of good quality.

Winterwarm-lekkerte.

Ons was 4 volwassenes wat in The Shed op Boschrivier tuisgegaan het en kan onomwonde sê dat dit puik akkommodasie is. 'n Binnebraai het die die leefarea warm en knus gehou, terwyl die wind en reën buite gewoed het. Ons het heerlik gerus en ook 'n paar lekker stapsessies op die plaas benut! Boschrivier Akkommodasie is beslis 'n besoek werd!

Winter warm treats.

We were 4 adults who stayed in The Shed on Bosch River and can unequivocally say that it is great accommodation. An indoor braai kept the living area warm and cozy, while the wind and rain raged outside. We had a wonderful rest and also took advantage of some nice walking sessions on the farm! Bosch River Accommodation is definitely worth a visit!

Hi Tania. Julle het definitief in winter tyd gekom terwyl dinge nat en koud is, so ek's bly als was gemaklik en warm. Ek geniet terugvoer as mense bietjie gestap het en verken het, met ons pratige Fynbos wereld op ons agterstoep. Hou gerus ons akkommdasie dop oor die volgende tydperk, ons installeer binnekort ons kolkol warmbadjies!

Tranquillity.

Excellent location, very clean. If you want to be have a good rest and be away from the city noise this is the place for you. Units are fully equipped with a lot of extras. The only downside is the bad gravel road, you need to go there with a bakkie. Other than that excellent accommodation.

About the road, yes, it is a problem but we are doing our best to make it as smooth as possible. I have logged a query to the municipality to send a bulldozer to scrape the road but they are helping the people in Rivier Sonderend and they cannot attend our road now, so we are making the best of a bad road.

Die rustige plaasatmosfeer laat jou van al jou bekommernisse vergeet en as jy daar vertrek voel 'n mens plaasvars.

Die beskikbare akkommodasie is vir die klein reisiger net so goed soos vir 'n groep van 20 mense. Die binnebraai in die skooltjie was 'n absolute wenner toe die weer nie wou saamspeel nie en daar kon ons as vriende gesellig saam verkeer en 'n hoop vleis braai.

The tranquil farm atmosphere makes you forget about all your worries, and when you depart, you feel farm fresh again.

The available accommodation is just as good for the small traveller as it is for a group of 20 people. The inside braai in the school was an absolute winner when the weather was bad, and here we could have a great time and a braai with all our friends.

There are no sign posts to direct you to the destination. On the dirt road and in the dark it is impossible to see.

Gemaklik en goed!

Ons voorman het ons kom haal nadat ons by die verkeerde afdraai gewag het (ons was gereed vir die wynproe), maar hulle was verskriklik vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons was in die kothuis, dit was fantasties ingerig, moeite was toegepas met die kombuis en gereedskap en dit was mooi skoon en gemaklik. Die DStv vol pakket was ook 'n bonus. Die enigste ding wat verkeerd geloop het (wat ons skuld was), is dat 'n badkamer venster oop gelos was en die goggas sommer ingetrek het, dit was lekker snaaks. Dankie vir 'n heerlike naweek!

The farm manager came to fetch us when we lost our way there (we were ready to taste some wine!), but he was very friendly and helpful. We stayed in the cottage. It had everything we needed and the kitchen was well equipped and clean. Loved the full DStv. The only thing that went wrong (it was our fault) is that we didn't close the bathroom window and a lot of bugs came in. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.
