Short and serene.

It was a weekend where friends met to catch up and this was a perfect destination for that. Road is tough but fair warning of the terrain so no excuse not to get out there! Far out and remote with the quiet serenity of nature and stunning views of a dam at eye level, as it meets the mountain and incredibly blue skies.

Ideal destination for a long weekend away from city life.

We enjoyed a wonderful long weekend in the comfortable and spacious chalet overlooking the beautiful trout dam. All our needs had been considered from a bag of rusks on our arrival, to a huge bag of firewood for the braai and the indoor fireplace - we were at home from the moment we arrived. Kirsten and her family are very friendly and they did their best to make our stay a pleasure. Loadshedding has become a status quo unfortunately, but they provided a gas plate option and several rechargeable lights to assist us when the power was off. We enjoyed fishing at the two trout dams and luckily our efforts were rewarded with several good catches. It was so secluded on the farm and we enjoyed exploring the paths and fields that surrounded the chalet. On one of the days, it was misty and rainy and we were able to relax in the comfy living area and play cards and Jenga and even watch some cricket on our computer because they very kindly supply wi-fi to the chalet! We would definitely recommend this as a lovely getaway for a family with teenagers.

Goeie ontspanning, pragtige uitsig.

Bietjie ver op die grondpad maar die moeite werd, het dit baie geniet.

Good relaxation, beautiful view.

A bit far on the dirt road but worth it, really enjoyed it.

Ongelooflike mooi omgewing.

Als is groen, en so ver as wat die oog kan sien is dit ongerepte natuur. Die berge rondom en die natuurlike valleie is prentjie-mooi. Vreeslike mooi veldblomme. Dit is skoon en vars lug en heerlik om by die tafel te sit in die son. Mens kan sien die boer is lief vir sy boerdery. Voorstel: indien moontlik. sny 'n stappaadjie na die dam en rondom die dam, dit sal dit net makliker maak om by die dam uit te kom wat voor die chalet is. Om die dam ten volle te geniet, dalk 'n bankie of twee. Hy en sy vrou is baie vriendelik en gaaf. Ons het regtig baie lekker ontspan en gekuier.

Unbelievably beautiful environment.

Als is green, and as far as the eye can see it is unspoiled nature. The mountains around and the natural valleys are picture-perfect. Terribly beautiful wildflowers. It is clean and fresh air and lovely to sit at the table in the sun. One can see that the farmer loves his farming. Suggestion: if possible. cut a walking path to the dam and around the dam, this will only make it easier to get to the dam which is in front of the chalet. To fully enjoy the pond, maybe a bench or two. He and his wife are very friendly and nice. We really had a great time relaxing and hanging out.

Beautiful farm setting.

Our family had a fantastic time staying over in the Rainbow Trout chalet, overlooking the dam. We enjoyed canoeing, hiking in the mountain, forests and rock pool areas, watching the new born lambs and seeing 1700 sheep being fed. Kirsten and Eckart are very friendly, informative hosts and it was interesting to learn about their german community, Lüneburg. Highly recommended for a true farm stay.

Om weg te kom van die stad se gejaag is die perfek. Geen TV behalwe bosveld TV.

Heerlik gerus, ons is so jammer ons het nie maar nog 'n ekstra aandjie gebly nie. Die wind het lekker rof gewaai wat ons sou forseer om meer te rus en dalk net games te speel, glasie wyn te drink en die kaggel te benut. Was werklik heerlik, lekker gestap en explore. En trout was daar gevang.

Getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city is perfect. No TV except bushveld TV.

Great rest, we are so sorry we didn't stay an extra night. The wind was blowing nice and rough which would force us to rest more and maybe just play games, drink a glass of wine and use the fireplace. Was really lovely, nice walk and explore. And trout were caught there.

Heerlik ontspan! Netjies, met 'n mooi uitsig oor die dam. Ons het die tydjie baie geniet.

Pragtige berge, ideaal om te stap en fiets te ry. Die kinders geniet die plaas, die dam, die roeiboot, en veral die diere. Goeie plek om af te skakel en weg te breek van die gewoel van die lewe.

Great relax! Neat, with a nice view over the dam. We really enjoyed the time.

Beautiful mountains, ideal for walking and cycling. The children enjoy the farm, the pond, the rowing boat, and especially the animals. Good place to switch off and break away from the hustle and bustle of life.

Superb scenery.

The cottages are well equipped with a huge veranda to sit on and stare out over the dam and mountains. The drive up into the mountains is great fun with such beautiful scenery. Our young children enjoyed driving along to help feed the sheep and being able to just run and run and run. We will be back.

Dit was 'n besonderse lekker romantiese plek. Perfek vir ons wittebrood.

Die mense was baie vriendelik en het selfs ekstra moeite gedoen omdat ons op ons wittebrood was. Dit is so rustig en mooi op die plaas.
