Cheval Vapeur

Had a great weekend.

Cheval Vapeur was a great place and had a great view with loads of open space. The people and staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we need. I even got to touch a horse for the first time. I can't wait for the next trip back and endless more bookings with Cheval. 100% safe and child friendly.

We enjoyed our stay at Cheval.

The location is convenient, not too far. It was okay staying in Johan. But next time I would stay in chalets of 400.

Good, but there is an issue of water and a toilet in the house.

It was good place, the issue of no water and a toilet in the house did not sit well with me.

Not pleasant at all.

The farm was hard to locate and was far from everything, full of spiders and had no hot water and the bathroom was 50 m away. No lights outside at night.

Peaceful and friendly.

We were 10, but they went out of their way to make room for us. Very simple but clean and friendly reception. We will definitely be booking there again next year.

Everything was great, would recommend anyone.

Place was clean and was great.

The place isn't as advertised.

It is untidy, unhygienic, inconvenient, unsafe and, in addition, everything except as suggested in the photos. Great disappointment.

Most peaceful two days of my life.

I really enjoyed it. It is away from everything, quiet, neat, everything a nature lover would want in a place summed up.

Dit was 'n interessante ervaring.

Dit was 'n interessante ervaring wat nie sommer vergeet sal word nie.

Awesome.

Only problem is that the bathroom is to far from the cottage to walk in the middle of the night but other then that is was freaking awesome.

Peaceful.

Had a peaceful night's sleep and the place is quiet. The owner is very friendly and helpful.

Disgusted.

Really disappointed. First got lost as the road only has one board by the main gate. Our car got stuck in the sand. As for the living ways: very unhygienic. Ablution points get padlocked at night making it very difficult to go to the loo at night with kids. Yes, you do get a key, but very frustrating trying to open a lock when a toddler has to go urgently. The place has flies all over. You cannot sleep during the day or make food at night as the flies are everywhere. The carpets in the cabin are so so dirty, your feet get black walking on it barefoot. Bathrooms are not kept clean even if they say they do. It's dusty, has spider webs and bad smell too. We came back more than a week earlier than booked and lost a week's paid accommodation. I couldn't anymore. To top it off even after using 2 cans of doom in 4 days and Toilet Duck every time I went to the loo, it was still unhygienic. I do not know how in the world this place can advertise itself even after all the bad reviews. Will not refer anyone to this place ever.

Baie rustig en gemaklik.

Ek was eers vol twyfel omdat dit moeilik was om die plek te kry. GPS het ons gelei na die asgate en 'n persoon daar het gesê dat ons die 4de motor was wat daar na die plek kom soek het. Eers daar gekom, het ons heerlik gekuier en was vriendelik ontvang. Die personeel is baie behulpsaam. Ek sal weer daar gaan slaap. Absoluut uitstekende waarde vir geld.

Uiters teleurstellend.

Verblyf lyk glad nie soos foto's op website nie. Baie, baie misleidend. Wendyhuis se sinkplate op dak was los en het heelnag opgelig soos die wind gewaai het, het niks geslaap nie. Tuinmeubels buite by braai-area was vuil en stoele verrot mens kon nie daarop sit nie dit sal breek.

Baie rustige plekkie en laat die mense jou baie welkom voel, baie bedagsaam. Regtig waarde vir geld en voel baie veilig.

Almal is baie bedagsaam en baie behulpsaam. Ons voel baie veilig en vriende wat kuier geniet dit net so baie. 'n Baie rustige plekkie om net weg te kom van jou alledaagse lewe en sal enige tyd weer kuier. Dit is regtig waarde vir geld en is dit ideaal vir kinders ook.

Very nice farm experience.

I'd recommend Cheval Vapeur. I love the ranch theme. John and Colleen are very warm and welcoming. Excellent hospitality. Will definitely be back soon.

Interesting farm experience.

Definitely an interesting experience, guests coming here should not expect luxury. If you are up for a raw experience of farm-life, this is the place to come, price matches the accommodation offered.

Ongelooflik sleg.

Dis 'n skewe shack sonder water. Daar is 'n stort en toilet 'n paar honderd meter verder.

Value for money, rustic, getaway.

John and Colleen were extremely friendly and welcoming. The farm is a rustic, down-to-earth, value for money experience for those who love horses and nature. We enjoyed our experience and would recommend this venue highly! The horses were so wonderful to be around and the timber cottage was a delight with all our needs met: toaster, kettle, oven and even amazing art. Will definitely be back!

Heerlik rustig om weer jou siel te vind.

Baie dankie. Dit het my goed gedoen om in die natuur en tussen die perde te wees. John was binne minute daar om te help toe ek oor iets geskakel het. Ek beplan beslis om weer soontoe te gaan.

Absolute disappointment.

Photos on website and what the place is really like, very deceiving. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Excellent!

The owners are wonderful. Loving and warm. They cared for my son and I. Taught us a lot about horses. My son even did some horse riding.

A lovely farmstyle adventure.

I loved the place! This is not for snooty city types that want to watch TV etc. But if you love the outdoors this is most pleasant.

An interesting experience.

Cheval Vapeur has the potential to be a great destination. Chalets nestled midst a working horse farm, with beautiful sunsets while we enjoyed our braai. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. Driving out to various destinations and back from different directions was a bit of a challenge.

Uiters swak en teleurstellend. Verdien geen sterre net minuse!

Pasop. Absolute wanvoorstelling op advertensie. Swak, vuil, "horders" nes.

Ek is baie vertroud met plase maar het nog nooit soveel vlieë beleef nie.

Vlieë en ablusiegeriewe baie, baie onsmaakllik. En laat instansie na elektriese installasies omsien.

Wat 'n teleurstelling!

Dit was n aaklige ondervinding. Ons sal nooit in my lewe weer daarheen gaan nie. Die plek is in die informele nedersetting geleë, met 'n vreeslike reuk. Afgeskeep en nie versorg nie, vaal en nie gaste vriendelik nie. Glad nie in die toestand van haar foto's nie. Baie teleurgesteld!

Gemaklik en rustig.

Rustig en stil met 'n mooi uitsig op Tafelberg. Dit was ook netjies en skoon.

Plattelandse aardsheid en "rustic".

Sal nie in almal se smaak val nie, maar teen dié tariewe is dit heel gemaklik. Klein houthuisies met buite ablusiegeriewe was nogal 'n belewenis! My vrou en ek het in die woonstelle gebly en het die antieke meubels baie waardeer. Die hele opset is funksioneel en goed geskik vir 'n paar aande se oorslaap en gebruik as basis om die area te verken.

Besonders aangenaam.

Onmiddellik tuis en gemaklik gevoel.

Glad nie soos verwag nie.

Dit was 'n ou Wendy-huis, wat voel of hy insak na die kant toe as jy in hom loop. Die aande was baie onrustig met karre wat jaag. Mevrou muis het in die kombuis vir ons gewag. Daar was rommel op die terrein. Sigaretstompies was in die toilette. Maar wat verwag jy vir R100 per persoon. Die eienaars is wel vriendelik, en hulpvaardig.

Gevoel van kamp met styl.

Die huisie is klein, maar toegerus met alles wat mens nodig het as mens sou kamp. Dit is netjies en het genoeg plek om buite te kan sit of om rond te loop. Die kinders het dit baie geniet om tussen die perde te wees, hulle kon hulle voer en kon elke dag ingeloer het by hulle gunstelinge. Die toilet en stort huisie was netjies en is privaat, mens hoef dit nie met 'n klomp vreemde mense te deel nie. As jy van perde hou, is dit die plek om by te gaan bly. Ons het baie veilig gevoel en het dit regtig baie geniet.

Verblyf was baie lekker en die natuur baie mooi.

Sal dit aanbeveel by almal wat hou van stilte en die natuur. Eie vervoer belangrik. Stil en rustig. Vriendelike mense.

Great experience!

Great experience! Thank you.
