Kos vir die siel.

Ons sal vir seker weer bespreek. Die kinders het die rivier vreeslik geniet. Die stoep met die braai-area is baie gerieflik en het 'n wonderlike uitsig oor die rivier. Die mooiste sonopkoms en -ondergang. Die huis is baie gerieflik, skoon en toegerus met als wat nodig is. Jenny en Angus het ons vriendelik ontvang. Die vis was bietjie sku om te byt (darem een gekry), maar ek moet bysê die rivier was bietjie laag. 'n Lekker plek vir familie en vriende om weg te breek en weer asem te skep.

Food for the soul.

We will book again for sure. The children really enjoyed the river. The stoep with the braai area is very comfortable and has a wonderful view of the river. The most beautiful sunrise and sunset. The house is very comfortable, clean and equipped with everything you need. Jenny and Angus received us kindly. The fish were a bit shy to bite (at least got one), but I must add that the river was a bit low. A nice place for family and friends to break away and catch their breath.

Awesome. Lekker. Net wat ons nodig gehad het.

Wel, Tannie Jenny en Oom Angus het ons met ope arms verwelkom. Die unit was mooi skoon en alles wat 'n mens soek en meer. Die kaggel, buitebraai en bankie by die rivier was 'n plus. Ek en my vrou het dit baie geniet en wil net terug. Regtig amazing sterre gesien, wild en as jy hou van fly-fishing is dit jou plek.

Awesome. Nice. Just what we needed.

Well, Aunt Jenny and Uncle Angus welcomed us with open arms. The unit was nice and clean and everything you could want and more. The fireplace, outdoor grill and bench by the river was a plus. My wife and I really enjoyed it and just want to go back. Really amazing star sightings, wildlife and if you like fly-fishing this is your place.

Ideale wegbreek in die natuur.

Baie lekker gekuier en die verblyf, omgewing met die rivier en visvangs was uit die boeke! Angus, Jenny en hulle span gaan uit die pad om dit 'n onvergeetlike ervaring te maak.

Ideal getaway in nature.

Had a great time and the accommodation, surroundings with the river and fishing were out of the books! Angus, Jenny and their team go out of their way to make it an unforgettable experience.

We had an awesome time! Great getaway!

The only thing that needs some attention are the mattresses. Very squeaky and noisy. The kitchen didn't have any dish cloths, and some utensils can be added. Otherwise, spectacular views and surroundings!

Pragtig, rustig, heerlik.

Ons sal enige dag teruggaan, baie vriendelike diens en dit was baie skoon en netjies. Dit was regtig besonders om in so 'n pragtige omgewing te gaan rus, ons sal forelvang en die stap vir seker aanbeveel. Baie lekker plek om na toe te gaan saam met vriende wat van buitelewe hou of jou gesin.

'n Ongelooflike buitelug-naweek in 'n idiliese omgewing!

Dis 'n sprokies-mooi omgewing met die rivier wat enigiemand, kind of grootmens, ure kan besig hou! Die huis is vreeslik ruim met 'n baie lekker oopplan leefvertrek, massiewe kaggel en ongelooflike uitsig vanaf die ruim stoep. Heelwat wild gesien nie te ver van die huis af nie. Ons sal weer gaan.

An incredible outdoor weekend in an idyllic setting!

It's a fairytale-beautiful setting with the river that can keep anyone, child or adult, busy for hours! The house is extremely spacious with a very nice open-plan living room, massive fireplace and incredible view from the spacious veranda. Lots of wildlife seen not too far from home. We will go again.

Manna vir die siel.

Ons het elke oomblik van ons verblyf terdeë geniet. Die stilte, natuurskoon en geluid van die kabbelende water was soos manna vir die siel. Die chalet was absoluut goed ingerig en baie ruim. Net nodig om kos en klere saam te neem. Ons kan nie wag om weer te gaan kuier nie. Rivendell is hoogs aan te beveel. Baie dankie aan Jenny en Anchus vir jul gasvryheid.

Manna for the soul.

We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our stay. The silence, scenery and sound of the rippling water was like manna for the soul. The chalet was absolutely well appointed and very spacious. Just need to take food and clothes with you. We can't wait to visit again. Rivendell is highly recommended. Many thanks to Jenny and Anchus for your hospitality.

Uitstekende plek en die beste vir natuurliefhebbers en hengelaars.

Daar is min plekke soos Rivendell, die plek is skoon, groot geniet en baie luuks. Skoonmaak diens is ingesluit, vriendelike en uitstekende diens wat verskaf word. Ongeag ons nie-so-goeie-weer nie, was dit 'n wonderlike plek om te wees, met die moeilike weersomstandighede en al, het ons nog steeds visgevang, oom Angus en sy vrou gee regtig om vir hulle kliënte en veral dat kliënte en hul kinders moet kan vis van alles wat beskikbaar is geniet. Daar is beslis baie vis en ons gaan beslis terug oor 'n maand of twee om hulle te gaan vang. Well done oom Angus en gade - baie dankie vir alles.

Excellent place and best for nature lovers and anglers.

There are few places like Rivendell, the place is clean, great fun and very luxurious. Cleaning service is included, friendly and excellent service provided. Regardless of our not-so-good weather it was a great place to be, rough weather and all, we still caught fish, Uncle Angus and his wife really care about their customers and especially that customers and their children should be able to enjoy fish from everything available. There are definitely plenty of fish and we will definitely be going back in a month or two to catch them. Well done uncle Angus and wife - thank you very much for everything.

Asemrowende natuur en pragtige huis.

Ons het so lekker gebly. Ons was by Hobiton. Die huis is baie stylvol en netjies en het alle gerei wat mens nodig het om kos te maak. Daar was ook lekker beskuit en Nougat. Die natuur is beeldskoon en ons kon goed rus. Die rivierwater is skoon so mens kan die visse mooi sien, wat help met die visvang. Ons kan nie wag om weer te kom nie.

Breathtaking nature and beautiful house.

We had such a nice stay. We were at Hobiton. The house is very stylish and neat and has everything you need to cook. There was also rusks and nougat. Nature is beautiful and we could rest well. The river water is clean so you can see the fish beautifully, which helps with the fishing. We can't wait to come again.

Absolute heaven! Quiet, beautiful, peaceful! Nature at it's best! Fishing was excellent! The river is clean. Will definitely go back! One of the best things was that there was no TV! Family time at its best! We all enjoyed it! From the teenagers to our 4 year old!
