Plaaslewe, gasvryheid, vars lug en lekker rus.

Heerlik gekuier en rondgery in die area. Die plaasverblyf is ongeveer 15 km buite Howick. Die rondavel was goed ingerig en netjies. Die gasvryheid van die gasheer, Bronwyn, was uitstekend. Ek het veilig gevoel.

Farm life, hospitality, fresh air and good rest.

Had a great time and drove around the area. The farm stay is approximately 15 km outside of Howick. The rondavel was well furnished and tidy. The hospitality of the host, Bronwyn, was excellent. I felt safe.

The place is beautiful, neat and clean, felt like a home away from home.

Loved how secluded it is and how friendly the owners are, and got visits from their furry ones. What an awesome place! Fun place to cycle and take walks with your partner and family ️.

Awsome.

What a wonderful experience, in our beautifully decorated cosy rondawel! We had a once-in-a-lifetime experience seeing a calf being born and listening to the wisdom of a seasoned farmer telling us all about Karkloof conservation! Our hostess, Bron, was very attentive and took care of our every need!

Salig, rustig, snoesig, veilig, privaat en perfek.

Ons was op ons wittebrood en het spesifiek die middellande gekies met die hoop op sneeu-weertoestande, maar was gegroet deur die warm verwelkoming van die Natalse son en sy gasvrye mense. Die eienaar het ons spesiaal kom verwelkom en 'n oulike verrassing in die rondawel gelos om ons wittebrood te vier. Die kaggel was perfek vir die koue winteraande en daar was ook 'n elektriese kombers vir in geval die vuurtjie se hout opraak. Ons was aangenaam verras oor die verwarmer in die badkamer wat ook gesorg dat ons voete nie verkluim nie en ook die toestelle in die kombuisie wat skoon was en almal in werkende toestand was. Die eienaar het vir ons voor ons besoek die rigtings aangewys tot op die letter want Google Maps en die GPS vat mens op wilde grondpaaie. Mens kan heel gemaklik die plaas bereik met 'n laagliggende voertuig en die grondpad is baie mooi versorg. Ons tyd hier was terdeë geniet en sal enige tyd weer terugkom!

Blissful, peaceful, cuddly, safe, private and perfect.

We were on our honeymoon and specifically chose the midlands hoping for snowy weather conditions but were greeted by the warm welcome of the Natal sun and its hospitable people. The owner came to welcome us specially and left a cute surprise in the rondavel to celebrate our honeymoon. The fireplace was perfect for the cold winter evenings and there was also an electric blanket in case the fire ran out of wood. We were pleasantly surprised by the heater in the bathroom which also ensured that our feet didn't get cold and also the appliances in the kitchen which were clean and all in working order. The owner gave us the directions to the letter before our visit because Google Maps and the GPS take you on wild dirt roads. One can easily reach the farm with a low-lying vehicle and the dirt road is very well maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would come back anytime!

What a perfect place to visit Karkloof.

Well situated to explore the Karkloof region. Close to the best MTB trails and walks in the region. Fantastic value for money. Would not hesitate to book again when we are back in the area.

Skoon en netjiese verblyf.

Aangename ontvangs gehad deur Bronwyn. Die verblyf was skoon en alles was daar wat jy nodig sou kry. Die tuin is goed afgesonder en veilig vir jou troeteldier.

Rustig, mooi, gasvry, 'n lekker kuier.

Pragtige kothuis in 'n mooi tuin en omgewing. Naby baie besienswaardighede. Slegs 15 km vanaf Howick en die Midlands Meander. Die Karkloof is 'n besoek op sy eie werd.

Alles wat nodig is, baie stylvol. Heerlike atmosfeer tussen al die bome.

Gasvrou was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Heerlike gebly en het alles gehad wat nodig was. Lekker atmosfeer tussen die bome, die omgewing is baie, baie mooi. Ons het lekker hout gekry om 'n vuurtjie te maak. Gerieflik met WiFi.

The rondavel was beautifully furnished and had everything one needed. Set in a beautiful garden.

Big advantage was they have a generator so I didn't even notice the load shedding.

Die gaafste mense by Gartmore Guest Farm, in die mooiste omgewing.

Het so lekker gekuier. Die omgewing is so mooi en die mense op die plaas is ongelooflik vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Niks is vir hulle te veel moeite nie. Hulle het tot kom help met 'n pap band. Die huisie was skoon en netjies en baie goed toegerus en die kaggel is elke dag skoongemaak en was reg vir aansteek in die aand. Baie baie dankie vir so 'n lekker kuier!

The nicest people at Gartmore Guest Farm, in the most beautiful surroundings.

Had such a good time. The surroundings are so beautiful and the people on the farm are incredibly friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They even came to help with a flat tire. The cottage was clean and tidy and very well equipped and the fireplace was cleaned every day and was ready for lighting in the evening. Thank you very much for such a nice visit!
