Heerlike bos-ervaring, net om die draai; uit-en-uit die moeite werd!

Dit was 'n wonderlike wegbreek, en ons was verstom hoe stil en rustig dit was, so naby aan die stad! Dit is werklik 'n 'bos' ervaring. Boonop is ons vriendelik ontvang. En ons het lekker gaan stap met ons hond.

Great forest experience, just around the corner; totally worth it!

It was a great getaway, and we were amazed at how quiet and peaceful it was, so close to the city! It is truly a 'bush' experience. Moreover, we were received kindly. And we had a nice walk with our dog.

Charming, clean, well equipped, comfortable and private.

We were met by DC, our host, who welcomed us warmly and showed us around. The house is small but spacious enough for two. The kitchen is well equipped and everything was clean. The shower is lovely, and there is no load-shedding as they are off the grid with solar panels and generators. The bush around the house is lovely, giving one complete privacy, and the dirt road was not that bad. My husband also went for a mountain bike ride with our host. We loved our stay and will be back.

Rustigheid vanself.

Met die stilte en naggeluide om jou, kan jy nie anders as om te ontspan nie en 'n knetterende vuurtjie te geniet nie. Ons kon net lekker rustig kuier saam met mekaar en ontspan, ook nie te ver om uit die stad te ry nie. Het ook lekker gestap met die twee honde. Dankie ook aan DC wat ons op hoogte gehou het oor hoe om die ingang te herken en aan Nicky vir die vriendelike ontvangs.

Tranquility by itself.

With the silence and night sounds around you, you can't help but relax and enjoy a crackling fire. We could just hang out with each other and relax, not too far to drive out of the city either. Also had a nice walk with the two dogs. Thanks also to DC for keeping us informed about how to recognize the entrance and to Nicky for the kind welcome.

Wonderlike naweekwegbreek.

Baie netjies, water, elekrisiteit en braaigeriewe beskikbaar, net 'n uur vanaf die huis. Die Boshuisie is 'n wonderlike naweekwegbreek vir ons 2 en die 2 hondekinders. In die bos, maar naby genoeg aan winkels indien nodig. Baie dankie aan DC wat die blyplek beskikbaar gemaak het vir vriendelike diens.

Perfek as jy net rustig wil wees!

As jy stilte soek sonder om ver hoef te ry, dan kan ons Die Boshuisie aanbeveel. Dit behoort ook die ideale blyplek te wees vir 'n paar dae as jy besigheid moet kom doen in Rayton.

Baie lekker wegbreek van die besige stad af.

Eienaars is baie vriendelik, alles was mooi skoon en ons almal het dit vreeslik geniet. Die huis is regtig in die bos en was vreeslik stil, pragtig en 2 aande sou beter gewees het as net een. Ons het dit vreeslik geniet! Dankie.

Rustige naweek in die natuur.

Dit is regtig in die bos. al wat jy hoor is voëls en ander diere in die omgewing. Die eienaars is wonderlike mense wat baie moeite doen om jou verblyf so gemaklik en rustig as moontlik te maak. Sal vir seker die plekkie aanbeveel en weer en weer besoek! As jy wil wegkom van tegnologie en die geraas en gejaag van die stad is hierdie die perfekte plek.

Stay was relaxing and definite bush feel.

Stay was relaxing and did get the bush feel, and a nice walking trail. The bedding however as well as the towels and dish towel in the kitchen did not smell clean. The toilet could have done with some bleach or something to make it smell fresh. The toilet sprays and dishwashing liquid was empty. Other than that we had a nice stay and our pets also had a great time.

Het net goedkoop, netjiese verblyf vir die naweek gesoek en presies gekry wat ek verwag het.

Plek is netjies en skoon, maar afgeleë met 'n grondpad om te ry na Cullinan of Rayton vir kosaankope of uiteet. Slaapplek is nie ingerig vir groepbesprekings nie, maar eerder huisgesin van 3 of 4. Eienaar het tog uit sy pad gegaan om vir ons as drie mans die slaapplek ingerig te kry. Sal aanbeveel hul investeer in 2 enkelbedmatrasse vir die toekoms om slaapplek te vergemaklik. 'n Groot plus vir die Boshuisie is dat jy solar krag en 'n gas geyser het en dus geensins deur beurtkrag geaffekteer word nie. Internet baie swak en geen TV's nie.

Was just looking for cheap, neat accommodation for the weekend and got exactly what I expected.

Place is neat and clean but remote with a dirt road to drive to Cullinan or Rayton for grocery shopping or eating out. Sleeping place is not arranged for group bookings, but rather household of 3 or 4. Owner went out of his way to get the sleeping place arranged for us as three men. Would recommend they invest in 2 single bed mattresses for the future to facilitate sleeping. A big plus for the Boshuisie is that you have solar power and a gas geyser and are therefore in no way affected by load shedding. Internet very poor and no TVs.

Die Boshuisie self is pragtig.

Die Boshuisie self is pragtig - skoon netjies en baie rustig. Maar die laaste 4. 5 km is verskriklik verspoel, vol slote en gate met baie water, sodat mens net net kan deurkom met 'n lae motor. By 'n groot poel water het hierdie motor gedryf en was ons almal baie benoud. Die aanwysings is ook nie 100% met die GPS nie. Dalk weens rowwe grond pad.

The Boshuisie itself is beautiful - clean, tidy and very peaceful. But the last 4.5 km is terribly washed out, full of ditches and holes with a lot of water, so that you can only get through with a low car. At a large pool of water this car floated and we were all very distressed. The directions are also not 100% with the GPS. Maybe because of rough dirt road.

Ons het net een aand oorgebly, aangesien ons 'n troue in die omgewing bygewoon het. Huisie was skoon en netjies - lekker dik komberse.

Die eienaars het uit hul pad gegaan om spesiaal vir ons hout te bring sodat ons by die vuur kon kuier na die funksie. Vir ons was dit baie lekker om by 'n huisie so in die bos te bly - heerlik om wakker te word met al die voëlgeluide! Ons sal graag weer daar kom bly, en dan vir 'n hele naweek.

We only stayed one night as we were attending a wedding in the area. Cottage was clean and tidy - nice thick blankets.

The owners went out of their way to specially bring us wood so we could hang out by the fire after the function. For us it was very nice to stay at a house like this in the forest - wonderful to wake up to all the bird sounds! We would love to come and stay there again, and then for a whole weekend.
