Ons het so lekker gekuier en die opsigter het ons hartlik verwelkom.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Kamers is lekker groot en ruim asook badkamers. Die omliggende area is stil en rustig en niemand wat jou kan pla nie. Sal definitief weer daar bly.

Rustig, natuurskoon en vars lig.

Ons het baie lekker gebly en die gasheer was verskriklik vriendelik en behulpsaam. Sal vir seker as ons gesin die geleentheid kry 'n naweek weer gaan kuier in die winter.

Pleasantly surprised at how comfortable we were while we were there. Beautiful location.

Would have liked a bit more of a run-down on the ins and outs of the place as we were uncertain as to how some things work namely the off-the-grid items such as the geysers, electricity meter, lights. Other than that we really enjoyed the place and area. It's perfect for a weekend getaway to just enjoy good company. Would definitely recommend the place to others.

Lovely farmhouse, perfect for kids, pets and large groups.

Lovely farmhouse with large garden. Kids loved the experience — exploring and riding bicycles. Pets welcome. Went for lovely walks in the reserve. Town centre and beach approx. 5km from the house. Braais inside and outside. Only had to bring towels, wood and food. The rest are in place. Highly recommend.

Tranquil, cosy and a quiet getaway.

Close enough to Yzerfontein to enjoy the local spots, but detached enough for complete seclusion. Three-night stay, power kept up, and we bunkered down with indoor fire roaring, lots of food, drinks and games. Wonderfully accommodating for pets, with our group ranging from 12-80 in age all enjoying themselves. Must do: Wrights Gin Distillery, lunch at Beaches Restaurant!

Baie lekker gebly. Gevoel soos 'n plaas. Mooi natuur.

Al het die sonkrag nie lank gehou het nie, het die vooraf waarskuwing gesorg dat ons voorbereid was. Die plek was netjies en het ons die tyd daar terdee geniet. Die binnenshuise vuurhert was 'n wenner met die koue en reën wat ons beleef het.

Very nice stay. Feels like a farm. Beautiful nature.

Although the solar power did not last long, the advance warning ensured that we were prepared. The place was neat and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The indoor fire pit was a winner with the cold and rain we experienced.

Ons het 'n heerlike tyd gehad. Die huis is reg ingerig vir 'n groot groep, die ligging is perfek en die tuin en omgewing mooi en rustig.

Ongelukkig het hulle nie gesorg dat die huis skoon was nie. Daar was vuil asbakkies, 'n deurmekaar etenstafel met kerblakers met baie ou, uitgebrande kerse, wasgoedpennetjies en uitgebrande vuurhoutjies, asook baie spinnerakke in die ventsters. Die blindings in die een kamer kon nie oop of toe nie. Daar was verwarring oor watter hek gebruik moes word en die sonkrag-batterye was op 0%. Dit het beteken dat ons nie warm water in die badkamers vir twee van die kamers gehad het nie. 'n Kragopwekker is gebring, maar die petrol was nie genoeg om die baterye te laai nie. Miskien kan die eienaars net weer besoek en die lappe oor die banke vervang - dis nogals verweer.

We had a lovely time. The house is well equipped for a large group, the location is perfect and the garden and surroundings beautiful and peaceful.

Unfortunately, they did not make sure that the house was clean. There were dirty ashtrays, a messy dining table with candlesticks with very old, burnt-out candles, clothespins and burnt-out matches, as well as many cobwebs in the cupboards. The blinds in one room could not be opened or closed. There was confusion about which gate to use and the solar batteries were at 0%. This meant that we had no hot water in the bathrooms for two of the rooms. A generator was brought, but the gasoline was not enough to charge the batteries. Maybe the owners can just visit again and replace the cloths over the sofas - it's quite weathered.

Hi Rentia

Ek is bly julle het dit geniet.

Jacobuskraal is 'n natuur reservaat met diere en slange so dit is maar net vir die veiligheid van die honde en diere wat ons in ag neem. Ook a.g.v stilte, ons kan nooit met sekerheid weet of honde op hul eie sal blaf nie.

Dankie vir terugvoer, ons sal dit noem in die toekoms.

Lovely, very private double story accomodation in nature reserve.

We loved the spaciousness created by the vaulted ceiling, with the upper bedrooms joined by a 'aerial walkway' spanning the open plan lounge/kitchen/dining room. With four separate bedrooms it is perfect for a group of friends or family. The caretaker was just a call away & very helpful. 5kms from Yzerfontein & the beach, 15 km from Darling in it's own private nature reserve, what more could you want from a country retreat.

Our first choice was our best choice!

Jacobuskraal Farmhouse was the perfect central base to explore Darling and Yzerfontein. The house itself is massive with plenty accommodation options, bathroom options, seating options. it has the wow factor when you open the aptly named happy doors on the expansive stoep to step inside! The kitchen is packed with everything you will need and more for any meal type for any number of people. We did not miss having electricity at all - the lights work very well with the solar system. We had plenty of hot water from the gas hot water cylinders, the gas stove was tops, the gas fridge ice cold. We enjoyed our stoep meals, braai outside, star/shooting star/satellite gazing both nights. Slept like babies in slightly darker than normal surrounds. Did not want to leave after 2 nights/3 day long weekend! Ian is a wonderful contact and an asset to the Louw family for ensuring the house is immaculate inside out. We will be back!

Jacobuskraal is ver genoeg vir privaatheid maar naby genoeg vir toeriste-attraksies. Ons geniet die plaas en ruimte wat Jacobuskraal bied. Die huis was lieflik en ruim.

Jacobuskraal bring die see en plaasgevoel op 'n moderne manier na die vakansieganger.

'n Goeie plek om God se liefde vir ons in die natuur te sien.

Die huis is off the grid en met niks TV of WiFi is dit 'n goeie plek om die selfoon en laptop eenkant te sit en letterlik te sit en kyk hoe die heuningbye besig is by die lavenderbosse. Stunning tyd om stil te raak by Jesus se voete.

Perfect house for a boys weekend away!

Basic but just what we needed for a boys weekend away. No neighbours so no noise complaints, 2 large braai areas, cool inside bar area (can smoke inside). The gas showers were in working order and the generator was fine to have lights on the whole evening on both nights. Take power banks to charge appliances in case.

We all enjoyed our stay - it was quiet and just what we needed. We were there for a wedding so did not spend much time at the house.

We all enjoyed our stay. We were only disappointed that electricity did not last. We were only there at night and had young adults with us and they were unable to use their laptops and cell phones. We now live in a world of digital technology and they should allow electricity for charging purposes.

Perfect getaway if you need a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, secluded but safe. Great atmosphere in the house, having a warm fire going at night when there are lights, absolute bliss.

Ligging en geriewe baie gepas vir 'n manne-naweek weg van die stad se gewoel. Plattelandse atmosfeer, maklik bereikbaar met Yzerfontein and ander geriewe binne 5 km radius. Slegs sonkrag, maar meer as voldoende vir noodsaaklike behoeftes en ontspanning.

Genotvol.

Ons gas was op, op die 3de dag. Die opsigter het gesê hy sal 'n nuwe bottel bring die volgende dag, maar het toe nooit nie. Ons het die stoof se gas bottel gebruik op die yskas en geiser vir die laaste tyd. Die opsigter het nooit iets laat weet nie. Dit was die enigste teleurstelling.

Our gas was finished on the third day. The caretaker said he would provide a new bottle the next day, but never did. We used the stove's gas bottle for the fridge en the geyser for the last bit of out stay. The caretaker never got back to us. That was the only disappointment.

Rustige verblyf as jy wil wegkom van die gejaag.

Ons het ons kuier baie geniet en sal beslis weer oorweeg om daar te bly. Ons was net 3 persone so ons het oorgenoeg spasie gehad. Die beskrywing noem dat 12 mense daar kan bly, maar ek sal dit nie sommer aanbeveel nie. Daar is net een stort wat relatief goed werk, so almal sal in die een kamer se badkamer moet stort. Dit was nie vir ons 'n probleem nie, maar kan dalk problematies wees vir 'n groot groep. Die opsigter was baie behulpsaam en het ons welkom laat voel.

Peaceful stay if you want to get away from your busy life.

We enjoyed our visit and will definitely consider staying there again. We were only 3 people so we had plenty of space. The description mentions that 12 people can stay there, but I will not recommend it. There is only one shower that works relatively well, so everyone will have to shower in the one bathroom. It was not a problem for us, but could be problematic for a large group. The caretaker was very helpful and made us feel welcome.

Wat 'n heerlike wegbreek in 'n veilige plaasomgewing.

Ons was 8 grootmense met drie kinders (almal onder 4 jaar) en ons het heerlik gekuier. Die feit dat daar nie 'n TV was nie, het gemaak dat ons, as familie, 'n slag ander goed gedoen het as gewoonlik. Die wit strande en winkels van Yzerfontein is ook naby genoeg om gou vinnig daarheen te gaan. Hier en daar was daar ietsie wat gepla het, maar oor die algemeen het ons heerlik gekuier en sal ons beslis weer gaan.

We were 8 adults with three children (all under 4 years) and we had a great time. The fact that there was no TV meant that we, as a family, did a lot of different things than usual. The white beaches and shops of Yzerfontein are also close enough to go there quickly. Here and there there was something that bothered us, but overall we had a great time and we will definitely go again.

'n Stukkie plaas-hemel op die Weskus.

Ons het heerlik gekuier by Jacobuskraal Yzerfontein Farmhouse, ons vierpoot kind ook! Die hele erf is omhein en ons hond kon vrylik rondsnuf en speel. Sy het die spasie so baie geniet. Dit is letterlik 'n hondehemel. Die huis self is goed ingerig met al die benodighede wanneer mens in ag neem dat dit basies "off the grid" is - van braairooster, tot 'n jaffelmaker, ekstra koelerbokse om koeldranke koud te hou. Al is dit 'n plaashuis, het ons gevoel dat dit regtig mooi skoon was. Ons stem met vorige kommentaar dat die al die kamers en badkamers wel gordyne moet kry, vir meer privaatheid, en hoop dat bestuur dit sal toepas. Daar is ook 'n nuwe solarstelsel geïnstalleer volgens Ian, en hierdie het hoofpyne veroorsaak wanneer die stelsel se alarm in die nag en deur die dag afgegaan het, dit is seker net 'n klein verstelling wat gemaak moet word. Tesame met die saligheid en lekker braai-area, is daar baie om te doen in die omgewing en sal geen gas verveeld raak nie. Ons sal graag terugkeer vir nog 'n lekker wegbreek! Ons hoop die solarstelsel is teen dan uitgesorteer.

A piece of farm heaven on the West Coast.

We had a wonderful time at Jacobuskraal Yzerfontein Farmhouse, our four-legged child too! The whole yard is fenced and our dog could roam and play freely. She enjoyed the space so much. It is literally a dog heaven. The house itself is well equipped with all the essentials when you consider that it is basically "off the grid" - from barbecue grill, to a jaffle maker, extra cooler boxes to keep cold drinks cold. Even though it is a farmhouse, we felt that it was really nice and clean. We agree with previous comments that all the rooms and bathrooms should have curtains, for more privacy, and hope that management will apply them. There was also a new solar system installed according to Ian, and this caused headaches when the system's alarm went off at night and during the day, it's probably just a small adjustment that needs to be made. Along with the bliss and nice braai area, there is a lot to do in the area and no guest will get bored. We would love to return for another great getaway! We hope the solar system is sorted out by then.

Hallo Angelique

Dankie vir die positiewe terugvoer en ons is bly julle het dit geniet. Ons sal beslis kyk na meer gordyne en ook na die solarstelsel. Dit gee gewoonlik net probleme as die sisteem oorlaai is, of die battery pap is. Jammer daaroor.

Dit is 'n groot plaashuis wat baie goed toegerus is. Die omgewing is so rustig en veilig. Geen bekommernis oor ons honde, wat saam met ons daar was nie.

It is a large farmhouse that is very well equipped. The environment is so peaceful and safe. No worries about our dogs, who were there with us. We really enjoyed it, even though the weather was cool we used the indoor braai which worked great. Will definitely go there again.

Ideale basis vir lekke slaap terwyl jy bedags gaan blomme kyk in Darling omgewing en die Weskus Nasionale Park se Postberg.

Rustig en stil op die plaas met net die natuur as geselskap. Groot kaggel met binnenshuise braaiplek indien die weer buite nie gesellig is nie. Ruim slaapkamers met geriewe. Baie dankie Ian Gradwell vir jou vriendelikheid en hulp met alles wat ons wou weet oor winkels plekke en paaie.

Ideal base for a good night's sleep while you go flower-watching in the Darling area and the West Coast National Park's Postberg during the day.

Calm and quiet on the farm with only nature for company. Large fireplace with indoor braai area if the weather outside is not pleasant. Spacious bedrooms with amenities. Thank you very much Ian Gradwell for your kindness and help with everything we wanted to know about shops places and roads.

Dit was 'n lekker gesins plek met ruimte vir die kleinkinders.

Die gas storte en yskas het nie saam gespeel nie end die bed in die hoof slaapkamer is besig om inmekaar te sak, glad nie aanvaarbaar nie. Andersins nie seker nie te onaardig nie.

It was a nice family place with space for the grandchildren.

The gas shower and fridge didn't play together and the bed in the main bedroom is collapsing, not acceptable at all. Otherwise not sure not too unkind.

Goeiedag Evan,

Dankie vir die resensie. Jammer oor julle ervaring. Die gas yskas was vir 'n diens en daar is twee nuwe beddens aangeskaf.

Groete

Wonderlike naweek weg van die stad se geraas.

Ons was drie gesinne met kinders wat vir 'n naweek hier gebly het - meer as genoeg plek, lekker braai- en kuiergeriewe, en die ligging was perfek, weg van enige geraas en ander mense. Baie dankie, ons kom beslis terug!

Dit was absoluut fantasties, great ligging, great huis en honde het die erf en see só baie geniet!

Ons sal vir seker weer hier kom bly. Sal dalk net die hekke om die erf bietjie meer secure verkies het.. Ons een hond spring oor alles. Mens kan nie jou honde alleen by die huis los as jy gou iewers wil gaan explore wat nie honde toelaat nie, so dit maak dit net bietjie moeilik om Yzerfontein ook te gaan verken of 'n "restaurant-toer" te vat as mens vir langer as 'n naweek daar wou bly. Maar sonder honde ook sal dit net die beste wegbreekplek wees! Lekker groot en 'n fantastiese ligging!

It was absolutely fantastic, great location, great house and the dogs enjoyed the yard and sea so much!

We will definitely come stay here again. MIght have preferred the gates around the yard to be more secure. Our one dog jumps over everything. You can't leave you dogs alone at home if you quickly want to go explore, so that makes it a bit difficult to explore Yzerfontein or to go on a restaurant tour if you're staying for longer than a weekend. But without dogs it would be the best getaway spot! Nice and spacious and a fantastic location!

Fantastiese naweek weg vir 'n rampartytjie.

As jy 'n naweek weg naby die see wil hê, maar ook in die bos, saam jou vriende of familie, is dít die plek vir julle. Ons het baie lekker gekuier en gebly hier. Lekker naby die dorpie van Yzerfontein en kuierplekke. En jy't totaal en al privaatheid by jou huisie. Sal definitief weer hiernatoe kom.

Fantastic weekend away for a bachelors.

If you're looking for a weekend away close to the beach, but also in the bush, with family and friends, then this is the place for you. We really enjoyed the stay. Very close to the town Yzerfontein and bars and restaurants. You have complete privacy in your house. Will definitely come here again.

Peace and tranquillity.

We had a wonderful stay. We would have like to see more window coverings, especially at night time because it feels a bit scary. Our pets enjoyed it tremendously and it can be recommended for any animal lover. It is nice and safe and has an enclosed yard. Maybe the owner could take some recent photos of the place because it looks better in real life than on the web.
