Doen dit gerus!

Heerlik ontspanningsplekkie. Gaan stap in die kloof, kyk voëls, braai en lees 'n boek. Ry dan rond op soek na ander skatte in Magoebaskloof. Heerlike wegbreekplekkie.

Feel free to do it!

Great place to relax. Go for a walk in the gorge, watch birds, have a barbecue and read a book. Then drive around looking for other treasures in Magoebaskloof. Great getaway spot.

The best stay ever.

The stay was absolutely wonderful. The place has everything and was squeaky clean. The cottage is nestled in the Magoebaskloof valley and has great bird life as well as a nearby waterfall/stream that gave it an even more calming atmosphere. The outside bath was so relaxing and the braai area was such a great place to kuier. We loved our stay here and will definitely be back in the future! All the information was well laid out, Mark was super friendly and our stay was the perfect breakaway.

Pragtige omgewing en het heerlik gebly. Wonderlike voël lewe!

Goed toegeruste huisie. Die eienaar het werklik aan alles gedink wat dalk nodig sou wees. Die huisie was baie netjies en gerieflik. Die omgewing was baie rustig, en ons was nie bewus van ons bure nie.

Beautiful location.

We had a wonderful stay in the Narina Cottage. We were a bit unlucky with the weather for our short stay and didn't have the opportunity to fully explore all the walks. It's so wonderful that the cottages are deep in the forest, really peaceful. The birding was fantastic and we managed to see the Narina Trogon. The cottage was very comfortable and homely, clean and well-equipped. I would highly recommend it. The host kept us well informed of load shedding, etc. I really hope to come back again soon and spend a longer period in magical Magoebaskloof.

Just what we were looking for, peace & tranquility!

Unit was well appointed and lacked nothing. WiFi was a bonus, thankfully no TV. For birders this is an awesome spot, there is a bird hide and several trails on the farm, so plenty to do. An added bonus at the accommodation is the small container of wild bird seed. You are able to sit on the patio and watch the Red-backed Mannikin, Swee Waxbills, Dusky Flycatchers (nesting nearby) and a host of other awesome bird life feasting on the seeds and bathing in the small water bath, perfect for photography. The outside bath and (donkey) heated hot tub were brilliant!

'n Paradys in die woud.

Trogon het ons stoutste verwagtinge oortref! Alles wat ons nodig gehad het, was daar. Dit het amper soos ons eie huis gevoel. Alles was keurig en het van hoë kwaliteit getuig. Dit is nie net ‘n pragtige omgewing met baie voëls nie, dit is ook ‘n baie romantiese plekkie. Daar is ‘n kaggel in die huisie, koninggroote-bed, buitebad (heerlik privaat), ruim stort en kerse op die binnebad se rand! Daar is uitstekende voorsiening gemaak dat beurtkrag nie die verblyf versuur nie. Die tuin en omgewing was van oral in die huis sigbaar met groot versters in alle vertrekke. Dit is ook baie veilig. Ons gaan beslis weer soontoe!

A paradise in the forest.

Trogon exceeded our wildest expectations! Everything we needed was there. It almost felt like our own home. Everything was exquisite and showed high quality. It is not only a beautiful environment with many birds, it is also a very romantic place. There is a fireplace in the cottage, king size bed, outdoor bath (lovely private), spacious shower and candles on the edge of the indoor bath! Excellent provision has been made so that load shedding does not sour the stay. The garden and surroundings were visible from everywhere in the house with large windows in all rooms. It is also very safe. We will definitely go there again!

We had a wonderful family stay, hiking, birding and visiting the area.

Robin cottage was very comfortable for our purposes. We loved the easy access to the walks in the forest. . Great spot for birding. We also really enjoyed exploring the area with all it has to offer. It was a chilly weekend so the fireplace was a big plus. Hopefully we will be back again soon.

Dit was wat die naam aandui = voëlkykersparadys.

Geskik vir die natuurliefhebber wat net wil rus ook. Die staproetes is puik, die voëllewe uitstekend en die diens van die eienaar die beste. Mark het uit sy pad gegaan om ons voëlkyk-ervaring so goed moontlik te maak. Die kothuis het meer as wat basies nodig is - selfs gedurende beurtkrag was ons nie in die donker gelaat nie!

We visited Birders' Cottage specially for birding and hiking. Perfectly suited for the purpose of our visit. Forests, location secluded. 10/10.

Heart of Magoebaskloof. Off the beaten track, private, secluded. Amazing forest and nature short walks. Accommodation offers everything needed for self catering. Clean, neat and functional. Booing online seamless, check in smooth, no frills or fuss. What a delight. Will return,.

Net wat ons nodig gehad het. Een aand was te min vir als wat ons wou doen, maar definitief puik en 'cosy'. Sal definitief weer terugkom.

My tipe plek. Nie modern nie, maar meer as wat verwag was, veral ons wat in so industrie werk. Baie dankie.

Absolute rustigheid, fantastiese natuurskoon en stilte weg van alle daagse gewoel. Privaatheid.

Natuurakoon en waterval met voëltjies, vars lug, geen TV 'n bonus vir ons, buite lekker gestap deur woud. Mistig en gereën dis wat ons wou hê. Die eienaar ons op hoogte gehou met reēn en die paaie goeie diens. Puik staproetes.

Perfekte wegbreek as jy net wil afskakel.

Die Trogon Cottage waarin ons oorgebly het is baie goed toegerus met alles wat jy benodig vir luukse selfsorgverblyf. Die kaggel wat ook vir 'n braaiplek gebruik kan word is nogal handig, veral as dit koud en nat buite is en jy wil braai. Dit is diep in die Magoebaskloof en die omgewing is absoluut fantasties met pragtige uitsigte en 'n hele paar wandelpaaie vir 'n bietjie oefening. Kan dit baie sterk aanbeveel.

Perfect getaway if you just want to switch off.

The Trogon Cottage in which we stayed is very well equipped with everything you need for luxury self-catering accommodation. The fireplace, which can also be used for a barbecue, is quite handy, especially if it's cold and wet outside and you want to barbecue. It is deep in the Magoebaskloof and the setting is absolutely fantastic with beautiful views and quite a few walking paths for some exercise. Can highly recommend it.

Mooi voëllewe rondom jou private huisie met 'n heerlike buitebad met genoeg warm water, en genoeg borrelbad! Jy kan stap en skoon lug inasem op die vele staproetes.

Rustige omgewing en huisie het alles wat mens nodig het!

Diep in die woud met talle voëls om jou. Kan in die bad sit en na die bome en voëls kyk. Wonderlike ligging. Baie privaat. Gasheer het ons persoonlik verwelkom. Koffie-skinkbord was hoog op prys gestel aangesien ons vanaf Kaapstad gevlieg het en nie juis kruideniersware gehad het nie. Die grondpad na die huisie toe is redelik sleg en dit was moeilik om met 'n klein huurmotortjie daar te kom - mens moet beslis eerder 'n voertuig met hoë grondhoogte daar hê. Maar beslis waarde vir jou geld.

Quiet environment and cottage has everything one needs!

Deep in the forest with many birds around you. Can sit in the bath and look at the trees and birds. Wonderful location. Very private. Host welcomed us personally. Coffee tray was much appreciated as we flew from Cape Town and didn't really have groceries. The dirt road to the cottage is quite bad and it was difficult to get there with a small rental car - you should definitely have a vehicle with high ground clearance. But definitely value for money.

'n Rustige plek waar mens kan herlaai.

Wat 'n pragtige plek tussen die berge! Algehele rustigheid, in die mooie natuur. Daar is kort wandelpaaie langs die rivier na watervalle, asook in die geelhout woud tot waar mens oor die plaas kan uitkyk. Die huisie het alles wat mens kan nodig kry en nog meer, nie eers te praat van die buitebad en plonspoel om jou voete in af te koel na 'n oggend se stap nie. Huisie is ook toegerus om sonder Eskom-krag te werk indien nodig. Daar is ook meer as genoeg besienswaardighede in die nabye omtrek.

A quiet place where one can recharge.

What a beautiful place among the mountains! Total tranquility, in beautiful nature. There are short walking paths along the river to waterfalls, as well as in the yellowwood forest to where you can look out over the farm. The cottage has everything one could need and more, not to mention the outdoor bath and plunge pool to cool your feet in after a morning's walk. Huisie is also equipped to operate without Eskom power if necessary. There are also more than enough attractions in the immediate vicinity.

Sal enige tyd weer terugkeer.

Ons het die verblyf in Robin's Cottage baie geniet. Die huis is goed uitgerus. Die grondpad in na die verblyf was in 'n redelik goeie toestand, ons Polo kon dit goed handhaaf. Mens voel dat jy regtig in die natuur wegkruip. Die buitebadkamer was 'n gunsteling! Sal beslis weer uit ons pad uit gaan om Magoebaskloof te besoek.

Friendly owner. Clean inside. Outside not good.

The owner did his best to solve the Eskom poor electricity supply and response. Warm water from the donkey morning and evening! The cottage was clean inside but cheaply renovated - you can live with that. Outside the rondavel and rusted window panes are a sight for sore eyes. The small splash pool looks like a dirty fish pond. Low profile cars will not make it on the dirt road to the cottage.

Ongelooflik!

Van al die vakansieverblyf waar ons al gebly het, het ons nog nie verblyf teëgekom wat so goed toegerus is soos hierdie nie. Aandag word gegee aan die fynste besonderhede en alles is op hulle plek. Die ligging is ongelooflik, met besondere uitsigte oor die vallei. Die eienaar was ook uiters hulpvaardig. Alhoewel ons nooit onveilig gevoel het nie, het ons (wat kom uit die Hoofstad van Misdaad) wel bietjie gewonder oor ons veiligheid. Ek dink as skuifdeur dalk ekstra beveilig word sal mens dalk rustiger wees. Maar met dit alles gesê sal ons vir seker weer hier bly.

Unbelievable!

Of all the holiday accommodation we have stayed at, we have not come across accommodation as well equipped as this one. Attention is given to the finest details and everything is in its place. The location is incredible, with exceptional views over the valley. The owner was also extremely helpful. Although we never felt unsafe, we (coming from the Capital of Crime) did wonder a bit about our safety. I think if the sliding door could be extra secured, people would be more relaxed. But with all that said we would definitely stay here again.

Can 1000% recommend Birders' Cottage. We stayed in the Trogon Cottage for two people. The host did not miss anything and the cottage is very well prepared and setup nothing was overseen. 1st time ever I stayed in a cottage where even bodywash and bubble bath was provided and also insect repellent, clean towels, enough fire wood firelighters and matches etc, even bird seed for the wild birds (awesome). The garden is beautiful with spectacular views and other surroundings are stunning. We are planning too visit the cottage again as our son is now living and working in Magoebaskloof! Well done Mark we will meet you again soon!

Breathtaking.

This was our second visit to Birders' Cottages, this time in another unit, and once again we were blown away by the breathtakingly beautiful views, the bird life and the walking trails. We brought my parents along this time, it was their first visit to the Limpopo province and also to Magoebaskloof and they very much enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend this place over and over and over again.

'n Wonderlike plekkie in die smaraggroen heuwels van Magoebaskloof!

Ons beveel hulle aan vir die mens wat wil wegkom van die stad. Daar is wandelroetes om te volg en die omgewing bied baie om te doen. 10/10!

Pragtige natuurskoon, salige rustigheid, alles en nog meer wat 'n selfsorgplek kan bied. Die moeite werd!

'n Lieflike plek in die klowe, rustig en stil. Wandel/staproetes is maklik en nie te ver nie. Baie voëls om te identifiseer. Die huis is gemaklik en baie goed ingerig met genoeg water (en warm water) en alles wat jy moontlik kan nodig kry. Plus nog meer. Ons is vriendelik deur Mark, die eienaar, ontvang. Ons was daar vir 4 aande en kan die plekkie aanbeveel. Alles is mooi netjies en skoon. Sal graag in die toekoms weer Birders' Cottages wil besoek.

Beautiful scenery, blissful tranquility, everything and more that a self-catering place can offer. Worth it!

A lovely place in the gorges, peaceful and quiet. Walking/hiking routes are easy and not too far. Lots of birds to identify. The house is comfortable and very well furnished with enough water (and hot water) and everything you could possibly need. Plus even more. We were kindly received by Mark, the owner. We were there for 4 nights and can recommend the place. Everything is nice and clean. Would love to visit Birders' Cottages again in the future.

Dit was 'n asemrowende wegbreek en die plekkie is die naaste aan vyfster-diens wat ek ooit sal kan bekostig.

Die huisie het alles gehad wat mens moontlik kan nodig hê vir 'n heerlike verblyf en nog meer. Die eienaars het uit hul pad gegaan om dinge vir ons makliker en plesierig te maak sonder om 'n oorlas te wees. Die omgewing is asemrowend en die natuur is net wow! Baie sentraal en naby aan alles. Ek sal definitief Magoebaskloof Birders' Cottages aanbeveel vir iemand wat die pas kan uitklim.

Best way to recharge your soul!

This weekend was a very much needed getaway for two very tired individuals who live very busy lives with two small children. It was my husbands birthday and I must say we enjoyed the weekend thoroughly! We had soft rain the whole of Saturday but that did not stop us from having a nice and hot bath in the most beautiful outside bath in the rain! If we get sick it would be worth it! We also did some of the trail in the rain and I must say I won't do it any other way! It was the most beautiful nature scenes I have ever come across in my life! Can I come live there permanently? I just want to say thank you from two very tired parents we are now recharged and ready for the last few months of this year! The road to the cottages are not that bad at all, I stress we would have trouble getting out because all of the rain and we drive a quite low car but we had absolutely no trouble at all!

Great stay at Magoebaskloof Birders' Cottage.

Thank you so much for such a lovely getaway in the mountains. The cosy fireplace, the braai overlooking the mountains and the outdoor bath were a few highlights of a stay. The kitchen was very well stocked. The staff were friendly and helpful and made sure the donkey was lit every morning and afternoon to ensure the water was always nice and warm. The walks around the property were also very lovely and well signposted.

Relaxing moments.

The service I received from the moment I booked my accommodation, before my arrival, on arrival and after my stay was out of this world. I have never experienced such professional service. The accommodation was a pleasant surprise. It was homely and cosy and exceptionally clean and stocked with quite a few extras to make your stay comfortable. The location and setting of the accommodation is out of this world, the cottage has a view of the valley below and the mountains around you situated a dense forest and the sound of the running river water. If you need a place to relax and peace of soul then this is for you, then there is quite a few walking trails if you feel to recon the area.and take in the beauty of the area. The entrance road to the accommodation is narrow and be warned if the road is wet due to rains you might have a problem at certain steep incline but there are concrete strips which helps a lot. Without a doubt a worthwhile visit and a excellent night-stop to break your journey into the Lowveld.

Ongelooflik rustig en ontspannend.

Dit was ongelooflik rustig en ontspannend by die Trogon Cottage. Die fasiliteite in die Cottage is uiters netjies en in 'n tipiese plaas tema. Die hout geyser leer mens geduld met die warmwater maar is tog voldoende. Ons het net besef dat die paadjie na Trogon Cottage dalk vir normale voertuie moeiliker sal wees as vir 4x2 of SUV's maar 'n bekwame bestuurder sal dit kan bemeester met bietjie geduld.

Incredibly peaceful and relaxing.

It was incredibly peaceful and relaxing at the Trogon Cottage. The facilities in the Cottage are extremely neat and in a typical farm theme. The wooden geyser teaches you to be patient with the hot water, but it is still sufficient. We just realized that the path to Trogon Cottage might be more difficult for normal vehicles than for 4x2 or SUVs but a competent driver will be able to master it with a little patience.

Fantastiese oornagverblyf in 'n pragtige en ontspanne omgewing.

Die Trogon Cottage waarin ek oorgebly het is regtig baie goed toegerus met alles wat jy benodig vir luukse selfsorgverblyf. Die kaggel wat ook vir 'n braaiplek gebruik kan word is nogal handig, veral as dit koud en nat buite is en jy wil braai. Die omgewing is absoluut fantasties met pragtige uitsigte en wandelpaaie vir 'n bietjie oefening. Ek het nou al reeds twee keer daar oorgebly en sal definitief weer.

Fantastic overnight stay in a beautiful, relaxing area.

The Trogon Cottage where I stayed is really well equipped with everything you might need for luxury self-catering. The fireplace doubles as a braai, which was quite handy, especially when it's cold and wet outside. The area is absolutely breathtaking with beautiful views and hiking trails for a bit of exercise. I've already stayed there twice and would stay there again.

'n Gerieflike en ontspannende verblyf in 'n wonderskone omgewing.

Magoebaskloof Birders' Cottage is 'n juweel van 'n plek waar die oulike Trogan Cottage, die baie vars lug en die asemrowende natuurskoon jou verblyf omskep in" 'n hier wil ek vir altyd bly"-gevoel. Dit was definitief die eerste besoek van nog baie. Dis voorwaar 'n goeie plek om te rus, te kuier en huweliks en gesinsbande te verstewig.

A comfortable and relaxing stay in a wonderful area.

Magoebaskloof Birders' Cottages is a jewel of a place where the cute Trogan Cottage, the fresh air and the breathtaking scenic beauty will transform you're stay in a "I want to stay here forever" feeling. It was definitely the first visit of a lot more. It truly is the perfect place to relax and strengthen marriage and family ties.

'n Wonderlike romantiese plekkie!

Ons het vir een nag bespreek en dis definitief te kort! Magoebaskloof Birder's Cottage het alles wat ons wou hê...pragtige natuur, privaatheid, netheid, romantiese setting, aandag aan detail. Volgende keer kom ons vir seker vir meer as een nag! Die privaat dubbelbad buitekant tussen die bosse met maanlig en sterre was die kersie op die koek!

Next time we will definitely stay longer! The large tub outside in the bush in the moonlight under the twinklings stars was heavenly!

Relaxing and magical.

We had a lovely stay at Birders’ Cottage where we stayed in the Targon Cottage. The owner (Mark) looked after our luggage while we did a 2 day hiking trail (thank you Mark). We really enjoyed and appreciated the outdoor shower. The gardens are beautiful and full of life.

Dis ons tipe plek!

Hier het ons nou behoorlik vir 5 nagte ontspan in die Robin Cottage. As jy afdraai van die hoofpad af is die 3 km lange stukkie tweespoor-pad (nie aanbeveel vir 'n plat kar nie) deur die woud 'n inleiding na 'n sprokiesverhaal. Die donkie is soggens en saans gestook, maar ons is nie gepla nie. Ons privaatheid was gerespekteer, tog as ons 'n skoonmaker wou gehad het, was sy beskikbaar. Dis nou wel nie 'n kroom-en-graniet-huisie met TV nie, maar niks was stukkend of afgeleef nie. Daar was handewasseep by elke wasbak, Peaceful Sleep en snesies op elke bedkassie. Radox-borrelbadseep by die manjifieke buite-bad. Nie een braaitang nie, maar 4. Nie een broodplank nie, maar 6. Nie een afdroog-vaddoek nie, maar drie verskillendes. En Gladwrap - kon dit nie glo nie! Kaggelhout en braaihout met firelighters en aanstekers. En so kan ons aangaan met bakke, eetgerei ens. vir heelwat meer as die 7 beddens in die eenheid. As Eskom pla, het die gasstoof pragtig gewerk. Ons dubbelbed het 'n goeie matras gehad. As iets geskort het, was Mark onmiddellik daar om te help. Dis wat tel. Ons voertuig was nou wel nie agter slot en grendel nie, maar dis seker ons Gautengse paranoia wat hier deurkom. Ek dink nie die pragtige Samango-ape was nou juis 'n dreigement vir ons veiligheid nie. Ek en my vroulief het soos Adam en Eva gevoel in die paradys, diep afgesonder in 'n woud met die klank van voëls en die rivier in ons ore. Ons het die naggeluide geniet sonder die geraas van die ewige TV-euwel. Vir 'n gewone bekostigbare wegbreek of selfs 'n tweede honeymoon, is dit óns tipe plekkie die! Die 5 nagte was te kort. Thanks Mark!

Our kind of place!

5 nights of total relaxation at Robin Cottage! When you exit from the main road you have to follow a 3 km jeep track (not advisable for a vehicle with low ground clearance) through a forest, a prelude to a fairytale. The hot water donkey was stoked every morning and evening but it didn't bother us. They respected our privacy, yet housekeeping was available when needed. So it isn't a chrome and granite house with a TV, but nothing was run-down or out of order. Hand soap at each basin, Peaceful sleep and tissues on every night stand. Radox bubble bath at the magnificent outdoor bath. 4 Braai tongs. 6 Cutting boards. Not just one drying cloth, but three! And evern Gladwrap - I couldn't believe it! Wood for the braai and the fireplace, and firelighters. I can continue, bowls, cutlery etc. for many more people than just 7. Gas stove in case Eskom dropped us. Our double bed had a great matress. If we needed anything Mark was available immediately to lend a hand. That's what counts. So our vehicle wasn't behind lock and key, but I suppose it is just our Gauteng paranoia acting up. I don't think the beautiful Samango-apes posed any threat to our safety. My wife and I felt like Adam and Eve in paradise, hidden away in a forest surrounded by the sound of the river and the birds. The night sounds were so soothing without the ever-present noise of a TV. This is our kind of place, for an affordable holiday or even a second honeymoon! Five nights flew by. Thanks Mark!

Hierdie verblyf is ideaal vir die stedeling wat werklik in die natuur, diep in die berg, diep in die woud en midde die natuurprag van Magoebaskloof wil kuier.

Ons was 4 volwassenes wat vir 4 dae heerlik gekuier het in hierdie pragomgewing. Birder's Cottage is baie spesiaal en is inderdaad soos 'n nessie in 'n boom. Die natuur is alomteenwoordig! Die geriewe en fasiliteite in die huis is uitstekend: die donkie-warmwaterstelsel is puik en roep baie herinneringe op en werk uitstekend! Die braai buite, die kuier binne (sitkamer), die slaapkamers en die kombuis was alles wonderlik en gerieflik. Die kombuis is ten volle toegerus met alles wat jy ook al mag benodig vir kosmaak en braai. Die gasstoof werk perfek. Veels geluk Mark met die regte plek om 'n Gautenger, wat smag na natuur en rus, te bevredig! Hoop ons kan weer kom!

This accommodation is ideal for the city dweller who really wants to visit nature, deep in the mountain, deep in the forest and amidst the natural beauty of Magoebaskloof.

We were 4 adults who had a wonderful time in this beautiful environment for 4 days. Birder's Cottage is very special and is indeed like a nest in a tree. Nature is omnipresent! The amenities and facilities in the house are excellent: the donkey hot water system is great and brings back many memories and works great! The outside barbecue, the inside (living room), the bedrooms and the kitchen were all wonderful and comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you may need for cooking and barbecuing. The gas stove works perfectly. Congratulations Mark with the right place to satisfy a Gautenger who longs for nature and rest! Hope we can come again!

Absolutely magnificent. Perfect for a romantic couple.

This was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. Perfectly romantic, totally relaxing, wonderfully rustic and was the perfect honeymoon destination. I can recommend it to any honeymoon couple and with confidence say that the is no better place to celebrate your new or existing marriage. From the donkey, to the road into the cottage, the waterfall and especially the outside bath... I will surely be back again and again and again... 5 stars to Mark and his staff!
