Sien hier bo.

Dit was en is die mees geselligste plekkie onder die son. Dankie Sharon vir jou gasvryheid. Ons sal definitief weer daar bly. Dis baie rustig. En jou vriendelikheid is awesome. Puik diens. Net een dingetjie, sal net like as daar 'n toilet naby die swembad/braai-area is.

See above.

It was and is the coziest place under the sun. Thank you Sharon for your hospitality. We will definitely stay there again. It's very peaceful. And your kindness is awesome. Great service. Just one thing, would just like if there was a toilet near the pool/barbecue area.

Uitstekende ligging aan die voet van die Pakhuispas.

Die Bunkhouse bring gaste binne bereik van interessante aktiwiteite en unieke natuurtonele. Heerlike kuier om die swembad met die goed toegeruste lapa maak die lang Kaapse aande heeltemal te kort. Ons sal graag weer daar oorslaap!

Excellent location at the foot of Pakhuis Pass.

The Bunkhouse brings guests within reach of interesting activities and unique natural scenes. A wonderful visit around the pool with the well-equipped lapa makes the long Cape evenings all too short. We would love to stay there again!

Mooi, gerieflike verblyf.

Die Bunkhouse is wonderlik geleë. Dit bied die pragtigste prentjie met sonopkoms. Dis 'n mooi rit uit Clanwilliam uit en het besienswaardighede, 'n restaurant, 'n wynproelokaal en koffiewinkel, alles binne 10 km. Die verblyf is netjies en baie skoon. Sharon en Tony is baie tegemoetkomend en reg om te help met opsies vir die dag se bedrywighede. Ons kom graag weer.

Nice, comfortable stay.

The Bunkhouse is wonderfully located. It offers the most beautiful picture at sunrise. It's a nice drive out of Clanwilliam and has attractions, a restaurant, a wine tasting room and coffee shop, all within 10 km. The accommodation is neat and very clean. Sharon and Tony are very accommodating and ready to help with options for the day's activities. We would love to come again.

Asemrowend, rustig, vars lug.

Cederberg Bunkhouse was alles en meer as wat ons verwag het. Die eienaars se gasvryheid, vriendelikheid en hulpvaardigheid is voortreflik. Die natuurskoon is asemrowend en dit was wonderlik om die skoon berglug in te asem. Die woon fasiliteit is pragtig en het alles wat nodig is om jou verblyf gerieflik te maak. Ek beveel Cederberg Bunkhouse aan vir enige iemand wat op die uitkyk is vir oorslaap in die omgewing. Die koste is ook baie billik.

Breathtaking, peaceful, fresh air.

Cederberg Bunkhouse was everything and more than we expected. The owners' hospitality, friendliness and helpfulness are excellent. The scenery is breathtaking and it was wonderful to breathe in the clean mountain air. The living facility is beautiful and has everything needed to make your stay comfortable. I recommend Cederberg Bunkhouse to anyone looking for overnight accommodation in the area. The cost is also very reasonable.

Wow wow wow! The best weekend anyone could ever ask for.

This is the best destination if you are looking for alone time and time away from everyone and everything and just to be in nature! Note: Perhaps some ventilation or Air-con in the room, as the room gets very hot.

Not as pleasant as expected.

Booked three nights. The braai area is far from the room. It was dirty and we couldn't use it because carrying your wood and everything else is impossible. We complained about it. She wanted to refund our other 2 nights stay which was not acceptable because everywhere else was fully booked. Not only did she not want to refund the last night, then we were forced to stay. Without any view of a pond or swimming pool from the room. Grilling was also not possible. The man's vehicle blocks any other good view there might have been from the door of the room. The photos and what you really receive do not match. I mentioned it and she answered halfway and turned and walked away and referred me to her description of the premises. I took the matter further by SMS to her and told her I could not give a positive review and she then wanted to get rid of us. The website contacted me with her offer to refund the rest of the stay for 2 nights which would mean we had to drive back to Cape Town the next morning without being able to explore the area. She didn't want to refund only the 3rd night.

Ideal for travelling around northern Cederberg, especially during the wild flower season.

Accommodation of a no nonsense, self-catering, rustic environment on a rooibos farm at the bottom of the Pakhuis Pass. It can get very cold in winter and very hot in summer. Tony and Sharon have made adequate provision for all seasons (a braai-room and pool are free to use) and are friendly hosts while being discrete.

Dit was ’n baie koue en reënerige nag in die Cederberge.

’n Klein muurverwarmer sal baie help. Die vere-duvet het ons lewe gered. Die Bunkhouse is regtig baie goed geleë. Blink skoon. Uitstekende waarde vir geld.

'n Stukkie hemel op aarde...

Ek en my vrou kon op kort kennisgewing 'n bespreking by die Bunkhouse kry en hoe gelukkig was ons nie. Die huisie is idilies, en wit dekor pas perfek by die donker klip mure, wat bydrae tot die knus gevoel van die huis en wat mens regtig laat voel asof jy in die berge slaap. Tony en Sharon gaan uit hul pad uit om mens tuis te laat voel. Ons het fietse saam geneem met vakansie en dié is veilig in die stoor vir ons toegesluit. Tony kon baie advies gee oor staproetes en waar om te gaan fietsry. Ons sal Bunkhouse vir enige iemand aanbeveel wat wil ontsnap van die stadslewe en in die natuurskoon wil spandeer.

A piece of heaven on earth...

My wife and I were able to get a reservation at the Bunkhouse at short notice and how lucky we were. The house is idyllic, and white decor fits perfectly with the dark stone walls, which contributes to the cozy feeling of the house and which really makes you feel as if you are sleeping in the mountains. Tony and Sharon go out of their way to make you feel at home. We took bikes with us on holiday and they were safely locked in storage for us. Tony was able to give a lot of advice on walking routes and where to go cycling. We would recommend Bunkhouse to anyone looking to escape city life and spend some time in nature.

Unit was neat and clean and suited our needs as overnight travellers.

It is situated within easy distance from Clanwilliam and has a farm like feel with magnificent views of Cederberg mountains. We only stayed one night and in hindsight we should have stayed longer to appreciate the beautiful farm and surrounding areas.

Netjies en skoon maar 'n bietjie beknop vir "self catering""in die eenheid self.

Die gebruik van 'n ruim en goed-toegeruste lapa is 'n voordeel, maar dit is taamlik ver van die kamer af, en dus ongerieflik om te gebruik.

Neat and clean but a bit cramped for "self catering""in the unit itself.

The use of a spacious and well-equipped lapa is an advantage, but it is quite far from the room, and therefore inconvenient to use.
