It is very peaceful.

Kitchen was a bit small. Freezer did not freeze meat. Although we knew it was a dirt road, the road is very bad.

Sentraal, beeldskoon, knus.

Jy het 'n bakkie nodig om daar uit te kom, veral in die reënseisoen en onthou muskietafweermiddel, maar regtig 'n oulike plekkie. Het baie lekker gekuier. 'n Waaier in die kothuis sou 'n welkome byvoeging wees, maar dit was baie aangenaam om daar te bly.

You need a van to get there, especially in the rainy season and remember mosquito repellent, but really a cute little place. Had a great time. A fan in the cottage would be a welcome addition, but it was very pleasant to stay there.

Lovely accommodation!

Great accommodation. Heidi was a great host, The Bluegum cabin was extremely clean. Our privacy was never invaded, we were provided with everything we needed and the cabin is equipped with everything one needs. Gates were always locked when we arrived back from our outings, which made us feel safe. To enter the property, one has to enter via a sand road.

'n Rustige plekkie in 'n plantasie.

Chillin Thyme het die basiese geriewe wat ideaal is vir iemand wat daar wil oornag. Dis skoon en netjies daar, en die eienaars is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die paadjie op pad na die houthuisies is bietjie ongelyk, maar die omgewing op pad soontoe is pragtig..

Ons was aangenaam verras deur die gasvryheid en warm ontvangs.

Die dekor van The Forester was 'n awesome trip down memory lane. Die persoonlike stempel wat daar afgeduk is, skep 'n huislike atmosfeer. Ons het ook the Waffle bespreek vir Oupa van 80 wat saam ons daar gekuier het. Daar was geen probleem vir hom, om te beweeg nie. Tuine baie netjies en grond is gelyk. Die chalets was pynlik netjies en skoon. Die eienaar het ons veilig laat voel, veral met die moeite om te wag vir ons tuiskoms voor hul die hek sluit. Ons het geen probleem gehad met ons 4x4 voertuig op die plotpad nie. Alhoewel ek dink dit mag 'n probleem wees vir iemand met 'n baie lae voertuig. Ons sal verseker weer kom kuier.

We were pleasantly surprised by the hospitality and warm welcome.

The decor of The Forester was an awesome trip down memory lane. The personal stamp stamped there creates a homely atmosphere. We also booked the Waffle for Grandfather of 80 who visited with us. There was no problem for him to move. Gardens very neat and ground is level. The chalets were painfully neat and clean. The owner made us feel safe, especially with the effort of waiting for us to come home before they locked the gate. We had no problem with our 4x4 vehicle on the plot road. Although I think it might be a problem for someone with a very low vehicle. We will definitely visit again.

Dit was fantasties. Eerlikwaar!

Het besluit om daar te bespreek nadat ons goeie resensies gesien het. Die dekor is ’n trip down memory lane. Ons het Forester asook Wattle bespreek. Was mal oor die personal touch en die home feeling. Die stilte was ’n bonus. Hartsmense. Sout van die aarde mense, wat ons verwelkom het. Hul dink sowaar aan alles. Ligging perfek. Baie in en om Sabie om te doen. Die pad na plot 46 Chilling Thyme is geen probleem vir ’n 4x4 voertuig nie. Sal vir seker weer kom kuier.

Decided to book there after seeing good reviews. The decor is a trip down memory lane. We discussed Forester as well as Wattle. Loved the personal touch and the home feeling. The silence was a bonus. Heart people. Salt of the earth people, who welcomed us. They really think of everything. Location perfect. Lots to do in and around Sabie. The road to plot 46 Chilling Thyme is no problem for a 4x4 vehicle. Will definitely visit again.

Comfortable, off-the-beaten-track accommodation offering great value for money, country-style hospitality, peace and quiet.

Heidi and Lauther were the perfect hosts - there when you needed them (and going the extra mile) but never intruding on the privacy of their guests. The cottage was comfortable and well-furnished with all one needs. We loved the travel-related decor and memorabilia in the cottage - it adds a special touch to one's stay there. The accommodation is off the main road to Graskop, just outside Sabie, and I could quite easily (and slowly) manage the gravel road to the plot with my car. It is within a few minutes' driving distance from Sabie - close enough to easily and quickly get to all the lovely restaurants and interesting shops there. If you are looking for country-style peace, quiet and hospitality, Chillin Thyme is the place. This will become our favourite spot to chill out in the Sabie/Graskop area. Thanks Heidi and Lauther for your wonderful hospitality, your kindness and generosity - much appreciated. We also love all the chilli products you have on offer - another reason for a return visit!

My verblyf was 'n heerlike, snoesige, warm nessie op 'n wonderlike plot in Sabie.

Hoe sal ek en Madeleine die wonderlike langnaweek ooit op Chillin Thyme kan vergeet. Met ons aankoms het ons 'n warm welkom ontvangs gehad. Alles was gereed en ons kon afsaal. Die houthuisie was baie skoon en netjies. Die kombuisie is goed toegerus met al die nodige ware. Die slaapkamer beskik oor 1 dubbelbed en 1 enkelbed. Die matrasse is van goeie gehalte vir 'n lekker slaap. Ek kan met graagte hierdie plekkie aanbeveel vir iemand wat uit die stad se rumoer na 'n rustige sprokie Sabie-plot wil kom rus. Baie dankie Heidi en Lawter vir jul gasvryheid en vriendelike gebaar. Welgedaan aan Lawter wat plot 46 so mooi met sy eie hande ontwikkel het. Ek sal met graagte weer terugkom.

My stay was a lovely, cuddly, warm nest on a wonderful plot in Sabie.

How will Madeleine and I ever forget the amazing long weekend at Chillin Thyme. Upon our arrival we had a warm welcome reception. Everything was ready and we could saddle up. The wooden house was very clean and tidy. The kitchen is well equipped with all the necessary wares. The bedroom has 1 double bed and 1 single bed. The mattresses are of good quality for a good sleep. I can happily recommend this place to someone who wants to come and rest from the hustle and bustle of the city to a quiet fairytale Sabie plot. Thank you very much Heidi and Lawter for your hospitality and kind gesture. Well done to Lawter who developed plot 46 so nicely with his own hands. I will gladly come back again.
