A great place to enjoy the Franschhoek valley.

Very pleasant, it is about 5 km outside Franschhoek and therefore quiet. But a few great wine estates are quite nearby and only a short drive away. The staff makes the stay a pleasure and are helpful.

A luxury camping spot.

Designed landscaped camping sites - the Bougainvillea Pergolas & privacy screens/demarcated areas cleverly done with Granadilla creeper, lush green lawns, breathtaking views in all directions, the list goes on. We were welcomed on arrival and felt spoilt with all the attention received from all the 'farm animals' - sheep dog (very cute), chickens (with chicks) and the grazing zebras & antelope close by. Campsite 3 & 2 (lower terrace) most shade (pergolas & grown trees), the top terrace shade (pergolas & young trees). A luxury camping spot! Thank you for your vision in designing & upkeeping of this beautiful place.

Uitstekend gelee, baie netjies en skoon geriewe, sal weer daar kamp.

Uitstekend gelee naby Franschhoek. Baie lekker kampplek en baie netjies. Enigste negatiewe kommentaar is die hoenders wat reg langs jou tent kraai vanaf 6 uur in die oggend - geen laatslaap hier nie. Stel voor hulle laat hoenders so bietjie later eers uit hul hokke kom. Mag dalk onnodig klink maar naweke is tog daar om bietjie later op te staan, veral na 'n harde week van vroeg opstaan. (Ons verstaan dis 'n plaas, maar net my kommentaar).

Excellent location, very neat and clean facilities, will camp there again.

Excellent location near Franschhoek. Very nice campsite and very tidy. Only negative comment is the chickens that crow right next to your tent from 6 o'clock in the morning - no sleeping late here. Suggest they let chickens out of their cages a little later. It may sound unnecessary, but weekends are for getting up a little later, especially after a hard week of getting up early. (We understand it's a farm, but just my comment).

Dankie vir u terugvoering. Ons verstaan die hoenders het nou baie vinnig meer geword en ons is besig om 'n hoenderhok te bou. Die hoenders is 'free roaming' op die oomblik en ons is van plan om die hane minder te maak.

Great place to stay just a little outside the village (5 min.) but the crowds won't bother you. Very clean and safe and great view of the mountain. Also close to great wine farms.

Kon lekkerder gewees het.

Daar was 'n probleem tussen die webtuiste en Heuwelsig se "houserules". Heuwelsig se reëls sê geen tente, maar die webtuiste sê niks daarvan nie. Het alles redelik omgekrap, ons het laat daar aangekom. Eienares het ons laat voel sy doen ons 'n guns om ons te laat inkom. Duidelik laat verstaan ons mag geen foto's neem en plaas nie. Dit het nogal 'n demper op ons dag geplaas. Tot nou toe geen verskoning gekry van enige iemand oor die misverstand nie.

Could have been nicer.

There was a problem between the website and Heuwelsig's "houserules". Heuwelsig's rules say no tents, but the website says nothing about that. Pretty much messed everything up, we got there late. Owner made us feel like she was doing us a favor by letting us in. Make it clear that we are not allowed to take and post any photos. It put quite a damper on our day. So far no apology from anyone about the misunderstanding.

Rustige omgewing en pragtige uitsigte.

Ons kon net rustig ontspan in die ruim, moderne, maar steeds "cosy" kothuis. Gerieflik naby aan die dorp. Enigste klein dingetjie wat ons gesoek het, was 'n boksie vuurhoutjies toe dit beurtkrag was om die gasstoof mee aan te steek, want ons het vergeet om in te pak. Verder was daar alles wat ons nodig gehad het.

Peaceful surroundings and beautiful views.

We could just relax peacefully in the spacious, modern, but still "cozy" cottage. Conveniently close to town. Only little thing we were looking for was a box of matches when it was load shedding to light the gas stove with as we forgot to pack. Furthermore, there was everything we needed.

Jammer oor die vuurhoutjies. Daar is 'n vuuraansteker by die braairooster en blits in die roostersak in die kombuis.

Our rates are according to season and compare to the rest of the valley, our rates are below average.
We are a small family business and unfortunately do not offer pensioners discounts at this time.

'n Ongelooflike uitsig en pragtige familie kothuis bring rustigheid en kalmte.

Ons is hartlik ontvang by ons pragtige verblyf. Alles veilig en rustig en baie netjies. Ons het baie lekker gekuier by Heuwelsig. Die eenheid maak jou naweek weg soveel makliker, want alles is beskikbaar, selfs 'n skottelgoedwasser en blits. Dit is die klein dingetjies wat saak maak. Mense met klein kinders word bewus gemaak van die honde op die perseel. Hulle het ons egter nie gepla nie. Ek beveel Heuwelsig verseker aan vir die wat van die gejaag wil ontsnap en wat 'n rustige naweek saam met geliefdes wil spandeer.

An incredible view and beautiful family cottage bring peace and calm.

We were warmly received at our beautiful accommodation. Everything safe and quiet and very tidy. We had a great time at Heuwelsig. The unit makes your weekend away so much easier because everything is available, even a dishwasher and flash. It's the little things that matter. People with small children are made aware of the dogs on the premises. They didn't bother us though. I definitely recommend Heuwelsig to those who want to escape the hustle and bustle and who want to spend a quiet weekend with loved ones.

Netjies, maar nie geskik vir 4 volwassenes nie.

Dis 'n netjiese kothuis, maar word geadverteer as 2 slaapkamers vir 4 volwassenes. Let wel dat daar net een badkamer is en dat jy deur die hoofslaapkamer moet loop om by badkamer uit te kom. Dus moet twee van die volwassenes deur die ander se kamer loop om by die badkamer uit te kom. Daar is ook geen deur aan die badkamer nie. Net 'n gordyn. Definitief nie geskik vir 4 volwassenes nie.

Neat but not suitable for 4 adults.

It's a neat cottage, but is advertised as 2 bedrooms for 4 adults. Please note that there is only one bathroom and that you have to walk through the main bedroom to get to the bathroom. So two of the adults have to walk through the other's room to get to the bathroom. There is also no bathroom door. Just a curtain. Definitely not suitable for 4 adults.
