Peace and tranquility amongst the pear trees.

We were pleasantly surprised by this quaint little cottage. It has everything you need, so traveling is lovely and light. The bed was super comfy, and the shower was hot with great pressure. We spent a lovely peaceful and quiet time away from the suburbs and loved the scenery and surroundings. We were so lucky to be able to take walks amongst the pear trees and down to the dam. We will be back and can't wait for more peace and tranquility. For those wanting WiFi or anything to do with your phone, this place is perfect to switch off. There is no WiFi down at the cottage, and we found Cell C to struggle with network, but Vodacom was great.

Heerlike plaas kuier.

Het uit haar pad gegaan om ons te akkommodeer op laaste oomblik met ons 6-jarige seun. Hy het die plaas baie geniet.

Went out of her way to accommodate us last minute with our 6 year old son. He really enjoyed the farm.

What a beautiful place! We felt as though we had stumbled into an unexpected paradise. The dam was a highlight, with beautiful trees and flowers to float next to. The cottages were simple, but lovely and homely. The decor was a nice touch. The hosts were very attentive and helpful upon arrival. We will be back!

Magical location, super friendly hosts.

The cottage has the very basics, but it's airy and clean. The kitchen is sparsely equipped, but there is enough for a boer to make a plan! A basket of firewood is provided for the fireplace, which we did not expect. And the well-established gardens around the cottages were a cherry on top.

Rustig en lekker, jammerte oor matrasse.

Dit was great, als wat mens nodig het, behalwe die matrasse wat baie dun was. Mens will tog lekker slaap. Die kas in die kamer het geen hangers of rakke nie. Het nie te min lekker naweek gehad.

Ongerep maar rustig.

As jy nie omgee vir koue bad, self-catering met net een klein kastrol, reuk van gefermenteerde vrugte en 'n yskas wat net 'n groot koelboks is en alles net lou hou en soek na 'n regte plaas en vat dit soos dit kom wegbreek, dan is die plek reg vir jou. Ongeag al die uitdagings het ons ons kuier baie geniet.

Unspoilt but peaceful.

If you don't mind cold bath, self-catering with only one small saucepan, smell of fermented fruit and a fridge that is just a big cool box and keep everything just lukewarm and look for a real farm and take it as it comes break away, then the place is right for you. Regardless of all the challenges, we really enjoyed our visit.

Netjies, maar baie minimalisties.

Moontlik het ons gekuier op slegte tyd. Daar was nie toiletpapier, geen sout of peper, geyser was koud gestel. Het baie duur gevoel vir wat ons gekry het a.g.v. voorgenoemde. Waarskuwing oor selfoon opvangs sou ook goed gewees het.

Lovely and peaceful.

I would suggest that an aircon be installed as it became unbearable at night and therefore found it difficult to sleep. A couch should also be incorporated as we found the chairs to be uncomfortable after a while. Other than that it's a perfect getaway to recharge the mind.

Simple, yet lovely cottage and surrounds.

Braeburn is a lovely quaint farm cottage, set between a small stream and backing onto the fruit orchards. A picturesque farm dam a short walk away completes the picture, and is available to swim in, or paddle on with the supplied canoe. I was sorry I could not stay just one more day.

Very rustic accommodation that needs attention.

The accommodation is very basic and needs a lot of attention. The unit we stayed in had a very old outside table and bench that could only be used from one side as the other was broken. If you need a shower you need to walk to an outside shower - shower head broken, moisture in the walls, the door does not close properly. The kitchen is very simplistic with water leaking into the cupboard. When we arrived the plates were still dirty from the previous visit and we had no bowls - this was rectified once it was brought to the attention of the owners.

Myself and my partner absolutely enjoyed out stay at Oak Lane Cottages. Elke is super friendly and very accomodating. Our stay was upgraded free of charge and we had everything we needed, even the small items that we forgot such as firewood, ice and milk was provided for.

Vir die prys het ons meer verwag.

Toiletsitplek heeltemal los/stukkend. Twee bedliggies werk nie. Daar moet beter kommunikasie wees oor Wi-Fi/sein wat nie betaan nie. Ons buitestort was gesluit en is gewys om ander buitestort te gebruik. Deur sluit nie ordentlik van binne af nie en seun (wat langsaan bly) loop in op my tienerdogter wat aantrek. Onaanvaarbaar dat hul nie geweet het ons gebruik dieselfde buitestort nie. Binne is slegs 'n bad.

For the price we expected more.

Toilet seat completely loose/broken. Two bedside lights do not work. There needs to be better communication about Wi-Fi/signal not being there. Our outdoor shower was closed and was shown to use other outdoor shower. Door doesn't lock properly from inside and son (who lives next door) walks in on my teenage daughter getting dressed. Unacceptable that they didn't know we use the same outdoor shower. Inside is only a bath.

Heerlik rustig en gemaklik.

Verfrissende plaasgevoel en lieflik stil met al die geriewe wat nodig was vir die winterkoue. Dalk kan julle 'n braaibak vir die braaivleis byvoeg. Ons was die enigste gaste vir die naweek, maar het steeds veilig gevoel. Verder het ons heerlik gebly na aanvanklike tekorte in die kombuis, maar dit was spoedig opgelos. Ons het nie die gasvrou ontmoet nie, maar die diens was goed van die opsigter.

Wonderfully peaceful and comfortable.

Refreshing farm feel and lovely quiet with all the amenities needed for the winter cold. Maybe you can add a braai bowl for the braai meat. We were the only guests for the weekend, but still felt safe. Furthermore, we had a wonderful stay after initial shortages in the kitchen, but these were quickly resolved. We didn't meet the hostess, but the service was good from the caretaker.

Heerlike, still plaasverblyf.

Oak Lane Cottages is perfek geleë om na omringende toerisme-besienswaardighede te reis. Ons het Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, die Paarl, Somerset-Wes en Worcester besoek terwyl ons daar was. Die verblyf is skoon en netjies, baie gerieflik met alles wat mens kan benodig.

Vakansie. Sentrale punt van waar ons die omgewing kon besoek.

Pragtige omgewing, landelik, plaasatmosfeer tussen die peerboorde. Ons kinders met twee kleinseuns (6 en 4 jaar) het ook twee aande daar oorgeslaap. Het die speelplek en lekker grasperke baie geniet. Die ou tipe cottage Rosemarie was vir ons 'n baie lekker plekkie - eenkant, groot eikeboom, braaiplek.

Hi Nols,

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoering! Ek is so bly om te hoor dat julle lekker gekuier het by ons.

Ek sal dit bespreek met my span - die huisie se kombuis was oor geverf aan die binnekant in Julie en ek is tans besig met planne vir nog veranderinge sodra my begroting dit toe laat. Ek is die nuwe eienaar en ek het die plek oorgevat tydens lockdown die begin van die jaar.

Ons sien uit om julle weer te verwelkom op die plaas!

Quiet and serene.

Although we experienced a few hiccups at a few cottages, we eventually settled into a problem-free one. The new owner was exceptional with her service ensuring that our stay was exactly what we planned. Thank you, Elke, for your kindness and hospitality. Also the team that assisted the likes of aunt Suzan and Andile, they were so hands-on with requests that needed to be dealt with. The setting is perfect for a quiet getaway with loved ones. Love the wide-open spaces to chill outside and just be. I highly recommend this place for those who need a break away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Gerief, genot, ontspanning.

Ons het ons verblyf by Oak Lane vreeslik baie geniet. Die ligging van die huisie was pragtig, selfs die roete om daar uit te kom was baie mooi. Ons het ons daaglikse stappies op die plaas vreeslik geniet, daar was genoeg om te sien en te doen. Die huisie het van alles beskik wat ons nodig gehad het en was netjies aan ons gegee. Dit was ook naby genoeg aan oral waar ons wou wees. Ons sal definitief terugkeer.

We really enjoyed our stay at Oak Lane. The location of the cottage was beautiful, even the route to get there was very beautiful. We really enjoyed our daily walks on the farm, there was plenty to see and do. The house had everything we needed and was given to us neatly. It was also close enough to everywhere we wanted to be. We will definitely return.

Lazy days.

Ideal if you really want to get away from everything but do not want to travel very far away from it all! This quiet valley accommodation nestled among the Oak's is ideal for people that want to take an electronic break. Elke the new manager/owner is working hard under the restraints of Covid to make your stay as wonderful and relaxing as possible. There are several options of cottages for different size groups/families. We had a cute 2 sleeper with a bath and kitchen unit., we sat outside under the trees while having a braai. You can also walk up the hill on the farm if you feel the need for some exercise. There is a nice big dam where you can spend the day and go rowing and swimming. If you organise with Elke she will pack you a picnic basket to have under the trees on the blankets. Very relaxing. We also drove to Hermanus one day to go and explore the town and walk along the promenade. We also drove to Kleinmond for a mid-morning/lunch, easy drive to take a walk on the beach and explore the town. There are many other little 'dorpies' within reach for you to drive to and explore. A definite must is the Elgin Railway Market, an amazing, repurposed railway building with the best pizza I've had in a long time. Do yourself a favour and do not miss it.

Rejuvenating

My partner and I absolutely would love to return and already shared our experience with friends and family. I beautiful scenery and peaceful surroundings adds to a blissful getaway. We would like to advise that the bathroom could do with some deeper cleaning. The shower doesn't feel well cleaned, the grouting especially. The shower water force is slightly harsh and temperate gaging perhaps something to look into. We understand the location and with that comes mini spiders but just a look into room corners for webs and perhaps a poison to keep mini insects out as far as possible. Perhaps a space or future tip, the space is essentially for 2 people - the cottage we booked, and perhaps moving the dining table along the entrance wall or adjusting things a bit to try to get 2 seater or 2 single seaters in front of that wonderful fire place. Perhaps the dining table can be smaller? Just a thought. I love a cheese board and perhaps adding one in the cottages helps when you didn't pack yours in. One item that I did have a moment of pause was the kettle when I opened it. Please make sure that they are cleaned often with citrus or bicarb soda even a lemon and you boil the water to get that dirt that loves building on the inside off. The kettle inside was literally a dark grey. I do understand the water might have a deferent PH or chemical/ mineral content but the cleaning is still a crucial item when it is used for use within the kitchen and items used to cook or in this case for a item to drink.

Lovely rustic cottage in nice country setting.

Simple yet perfectly comfortable cottage with new appliances, quality linens and everything you need. The cottage was at the end of a road with only one other cottage in the vicinity but far enough away to enjoy privacy. With vineyards at the rear and a small stream at the front and a dam a short hike away, it is a lovely quiet country getaway, an ideal place for a couple.

Cosy met al die geriewe.

Ongelukkig baie slegte internet ontvangs. Die omskakeling van werkershuis na gastehuis is maar grof gedoen. Die afwerking is nie netjies nie. Die voordeur hak vas en die yskas loop onophoudend. Nogtans voel die plek huislik en cosy en kry gaste waarde vir hulle geld. Die vriendelike en hulpvaardige ontvangs tel baie.

Unfortunately very bad internet reception. The conversion from worker's house to guest house was done roughly. The finish is not neat. The front door jams and the fridge runs non-stop. Still, the place feels homely and cozy and guests get value for their money. The friendly and helpful reception counts a lot.

Pragtige plaas in 'n rustige omgewing.

Ons het in Braeburn gewoon. Dis naby die rivier en mens hoor die water. Die braaiplek is onder 'n lieflike groot akkerboom op die rivier se wal. Heerlike bed, goeie beddegoed en 'n lekker stofie wat ons gestook het, want dit was koud met reën. Ietsie wat ek sou wou voorstel, is dalk 'n tweesitplekbankie in die kombuis of woonkamer. Ons het so lekker by die stofie gekuier, maar dit sou soveel lekkerder gewees het as ons gemaklik kon sit en nie op die kombuistafelstoele nie. Ek sal weer gaan as ons die geleentheid kry.

Beautiful farm in a peaceful environment.

We lived in Braeburn. It's near the river and you can hear the water. The braai place is under a lovely big oak tree on the river's bank. Lovely bed, good bedding and a nice stove that we heated, because it was cold with rain. Something I would like to suggest might be a two seater bench in the kitchen or living room. We had so much fun at the stove, but it would have been so much nicer if we could sit comfortably and not on the kitchen table chairs. I will go again if we get the chance.

Old country charm.

Already recommended this place to friends and family. Honestly great value for money and a wonderful country break away. We stayed in Granny Smith cottage. Each cottage is equipped with picnic baskets which I thought was the best touch to an already wonderful stay. Nearby dam and picnic area where you can swim and canoe (canoes supplied).

Heerlike plaasverblyf.

Die huisies is langs 'n vrugteboord geleë, wat net die plaas-atmosfeer verhoog. Silwerskoon, met die lieflikste beddegoed. Heerlike braaiplek in die kombuis, wat ook help om die koue te verdryf. Let egter daarop dat internet opvangs maar effe sukkel, wat dit eintlik net nog lekkerder maak.

The cottages are located next to a fruit orchard, which only enhances the farm atmosphere. Spotless, with the most lovely bedding. Delicious braai area in the kitchen, which also helps to keep out the cold. Note, however, that Internet reception struggles a bit, which actually makes it even more enjoyable.

Genoeg hout word voorsien om die kaggel aan die gang te hou wat baie gehelp het met die koue. Enigste probleem was die stort: na die eerste gebruik het dit glad nie meer warm water gemaak nie. Dit is herstel deur die handyman, maar het daarna warm en koud gemaak, 'n gesukkel om gestort te kry. Behalwe dit was dit wonderlik!

Wonderful, peaceful getaway.

Very nice, clean and neat. Will definitely recommend for a peaceful getaway away from everything. Area is very beautiful and cottages well above expectations! Enough wood is provided to keep the fireplace going, which helped a lot with the cold. The only problem was the shower: after the first use it didn't have any more hot water. It was repaired by the handyman, but then it alternated between hot and cold, which resulted in a struggle to shower. Besides that, it was wonderful!

Adequate but can improve

Everything you need is there and everything is tidy. Unfortunately the kitchen cupboards inside were not the cleanest and there were cobwebs inside the cupboards. As well as cobwebs in the roof of the kitchen. There was a problem with the gas geyser but after we called the caretaker, they came to fix it.

Wrong choice.

Unfortunately we have chosen wrong, no WiFi, no shower in the room, only bath with no shower option. Very cold when there is some wind and bad electricity.

Hi Gino,
I am sorry you felt you chose badly but we have never claimed to have Wi-Fi or showers in the rooms. We do supply firewood in order for you to make use of the indoor fireplace. As stated on our profile, our cottages are refurbished labourers cottages that are perhaps better suited to someone wanting a country getaway.

Feel slightly over priced for what we got.

Bit noisy with the farm workers over the weekend and the showers not working properly, otherwise pretty much everything one could need for a self catering venue.

Thank you for your review, Darren. Apologies re the showers not working properly and the noisy farm workers! Unfortunately, some farm weekends are still busy ones with spraying schedules. that are beyond our control.

Dit was heerlik tussen die bome en die kinders het die speelparkie vreeslik geniet.

Loved the peaceful farm with so many trees!

No television and bad WiFi signal - exactly what the doctor ordered! We lazed around on beautiful grass under huge trees. Had so much time to play games, chat and take walks as family. Cant wait to go back!
