Rustige stilte, omring met voëls in die tuin. Mooi uitsig. Lekker stap. Ideale wegbreek vir 'n paar dae.

Ideaal vir groep bekendes en familie. Min privaatheid as plek vol bespreek sou wees.

Rustige kuier in die natuur.

Ons het heerlik gekuier. Die verblyf het alles wat mens nodig het. Mooiste natuurskoon, stil en rustig en ons het selfs lekker Woollies beskuit gekry om aan te peusel. Dankie Amanda vir jou vriendelike diens en dat ons ons babahond kon saambring. Ons kom beslis weer!

Ek het net een woord "ongelooflik".

Ongelooflike plek, dit is so rustig jy wil net nie terug huis toe gaan nie! Die bosse ,blomme en stilte! Dit is iets onbeskryflik! En die swembad is to die for! Protea Wilds Retreat sal ons gou weer sien en die keer met die hele familie.

Tranquil stay.

Amanda and Martin were fantastic hosts. The WiFi was a bit patchy and I felt like I was often at their home to catch up on bookings (I also own a guesthouse). Walks on their property were lovely for my dogs and I as we had it all to ourselves.

Protea Wilds Retreat's response

Thank for your great words Lisa! Was wonderful having you and your dog children here. The wifi does not reach the cottage you stayed in, only available at the reception (my house). Normal data usage will apply at the cottage, sorry if it wasn't clear! Hope to have you back soon!

A gem and real value which I found impossible to fault.

From the UK and travelling up through the country finding Protea Wilds Lodge was pure chance and our great good fortune. Amanda, the proprietor, was immense in helping us with advice on planning our continuing journey. Should I return to the area I will definitely stay here again and would recommend it to all.

Protea Wilds Retreat's response

Thank you, Alan. It was a pleasure to host you and we hope your trip further on was memorable.

Rustig, privaat en beeldskoon.

Protea Wilds Retreat kan aanbeveel word, die plek is asemrowend mooi. Amanda, die gasvrou, is professioneel maar baie aangenaam. Die pad daarheen is in goeie toestand. As jy die Tuinroete wil waardeer is Protea Wilds 'n goeie beginpunt, jy kan van hieraf lekker rondry Knysna en Plettenbergbaai toe.

Protea Wilds Retreat's response

Beste Annelene,

Baie dankie vir jou mooi woorde, ek waardeer dit baie! Ek is bly julle 3 en jul hondekind het lekker by ons gebly, hoop ek sien julle weer!

Hoop jou dogter gaan gelukkig wees hier in Plett!

Great. The gravel road can be challenging, but it's possible.

The destination is lovely and well located between Plett and Knysna. The house is old, but neat. The old clothes and mittens hanging on the hall stand just made us a bit uncomfortable. Looked as though the people living there were on their way back. The fridge defrosted the meat I put in there for some reason. Other than that, it was really nice! The wine tasting and cattle on the farm are lovely.

This review has been translated,click hereto view the original version.

Was baie lekker. Die grondpad kan uitdagend wees, maar is doenbaar.

Die bestemming is heerlik en lekker tussen Plett en Knysna. Die huis is oud, maar netjies. Dit was net die ou klere en handskoene wat aan die kapstok gehang het wat ons so bietjie ongemaklik laat voel het. Gelyk of die ou mense wat daar gewoon het op pad is terug. Yskas het probleme gegee en my vleis het ontvries. Verder was dit lekker! Wynproe en beeste op die plaas is lieflik!

Protea Wilds Retreat's response

Hallo Christelle

Dankie vir jou mooi skrywe. Ja, ons hou die pad so goed moontlik in stand, dit is soms moeilik sonder hulp van die padowerhede, maar ek het darem nog nooit probleme gehad met enige gaste wat dit nie kon ry nie.

Dit is my ouma se voortrekker rok, wat sy gemaak het, en my ma se handskoene. Ek het gedink dit gee karakter aan die huis en pas in by die tema. Jammer oor die ongemak, ek kon dit weggeneem het. Wens ek het geweet van die yskas, ek sou dan 'n plan probeer maak het.

Dankbaar dat julle lekker gebly en dit verder geniet het. Mooi gaan.

Beautiful scenery, nature and absolute peace.

Our visit to Protea Wilds was way too short. Our room was spacious and well equipped with everything we needed like coffee, towels and the most beautiful view. The gravel road is kept in good condition and Protea Wilds was easy to find. Amanda was very friendly and helpful and sent through all the directions before our stay. We will definitely stay at Protea Wilds again.

This review has been translated,click hereto view the original version.

Pragtige natuurskoon, natuurlewe en absolute rustigheid.

Ons kuiertjie by Protea Wilds was heeltemal te kort. Ons kamer was ruim en goed ingerig met alles wat ons nodig gehad het soos koffie, handdoeke en die mooiste uitsig. Die grondpad is baie goed onderhou en ons het Protea Wilds maklik gekry. Amanda was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en het aan ons alle aanwysings deurgestuur voor ons besoek. Ons sal verseker weer 'n draai by Protea Wilds gaan maak.

Nice and relaxed but close to attractions.

We stayed in the cottage that was equipped with everything we needed. The fireplace was very nice in the cold evening. Good braai facilities and stunning view of the mountains.

Heerlik rustig tog naby besienswaardighede.

Ons het in die Cottage gewoon wat baie goed toegerus is. Die kaggel so op die koue wintersaand was heerlik. Braaigeriewe is goed en die uitsig oor die berge is pragtig.

Perfek vir uitlating van gedruis van die stadslewe.

Amanda was baie behulpsaam en vriendelik en het ons definitief meer spesiaal laat voel. Die ligging is wonderlik en die plaas baie mooi. Veral die braai-areas geniet en die al die staproetes. Goeie ligging tussen Knysna en Plett.

Pragtige uitsig.

Dis baie lekker hier en jy het alles wat jy nodig het, maar die grondpad! Sjoe! As dit reën, moet mens maar versigtig wees, dis al.

Protea Wilds Retreat's response

Baie dankie vir jou mooi woorde Karina. Alhoewel die grondpad net 9 km vanaf die N2 tot hier is, het dit ongelukkig hard gereën toe julle aankom. Die pad word gelukkig gereeld geskraap en goed onderhou. Versigtig is maar die antwoord tot 'n mens hom paar keer gery het en meer op mens se gemak raak. Gaste het darem nog nooit vasgesit of 'n ongeluk gemaak nie. Dankie vir julle geduld hiermee! Hoop ek kan jul weer verwelkom!

Prachtig, rustgevend.

Voor mensen die houden van een meer outdoors experience is dit zeker the place to be. Prachtige omgeving. In het huisje is alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt. De weg naar het retreat is minder geschikt voor kleinere auto's, maar zeker niet onmogelijk (we hebben het ook gedaan).

Ek het rus gesoek en dit daar gekry.

Die klankdigtheid is egter nie goed nie en jy hoor elke geluidjie van jou bure. Die omgewing is pragtig en baie rustig en veilig vir stap. Daar is pragtige fynbos .Vir families is dit egter effe afgeleë en moet jy te ver ry.Vir die wat rus en stilte soek, is dit die regte plek as jy stil bure kan kry. Dis heerlik om in die verhitte swembad te swem.
