Great place to rest.

Just one problem. There was no toilet seat on the toilet, but Sanpark came to fix it.

Benodig vir seker aandag.

Die beddegoed is stokoud, vol Jik-kolle en gate. Toiletdeur kan nie toemaak nie. Die blindings werk nie. Die paaie is amper onbegaanbaar. Die borde wat rigting aanwys kan nie meer gelees word nie, dit is heeltemal verbleik. 'n Rit van 20 km wat ons beplan het het ontaard in 'n amper 90 km-rit a.g.v. rigtingaanwysers wat nie meer leesbaar is nie. Gelukkig ry ons 'n 4x4, want die paaie is so sleg dat dit onmoontlik sou wees met 'n gewone motor. Ons is voorsien van 'n sakkie hout vir die donkie vir warm water, maar neem ten minste nog 'n sakkie hout saam, want een sakkie maak die water amper lou. Die stilte en rustigheid is wonderlik. Ek glo die grootste probleem lê maar by die bestuur wat by die kantoor by die WiFi sit en nie weet wat in die park aangaan nie. Ons het gery na 'n kampeerplek verder verby die huis, maar moes omdraai ongeveer 1 km voor die kampeerplek omdat die pad weggespoel was. Dit nadat die persoon by die kantoor gesê het ons kan ry na die kampeerplek.

Needs attention for sure.

The bedding is very old, full of Jik spots and holes. Toilet door cannot close. The blinds don't work. The roads are almost impassable. The direction signs can no longer be read, they are completely faded. A 20 km ride that we had planned turned into an almost 90 km ride due to direction indicators that are no longer legible. Luckily we drive a 4x4, because the roads are so bad that it would be impossible with a normal car. We are provided with a bag of wood for the donkey for hot water, but take at least another bag of wood with you, because one bag makes the water almost lukewarm. The silence and tranquility is wonderful. I believe the biggest problem lies with the management who sit at the office by the WiFi and do not know what is going on in the park. We drove to a campsite further past the house, but had to turn around about 1 km before the campsite because the road was washed away. This after the person at the office said we could drive to the campsite.

Dit was lekker by Paulshoek.

Net jammer die paaie is baie verspoel, want hulle het baie reëns gehad in Februarie. Die parkeraad het hulle bes gedoen nom die paaie te skraap, maar nogtans nie in goeie toestand nie.

It was nice at Paulshoek.

Just a pity the roads are very washed out, because they had a lot of rain in February. The park board did their best to scrape the roads, but still not in good condition.

Perfekte stilte, pragtige natuurskoon.

Paulshoek is die regte plek as jy wil stil word, min doen. Ek het baie lekker fietsgery teen Gannaga pas uit, en sommer net ons land se natuurskoon ervaar. Moenie luukshede verwag nie, daarvoor kan jy in 'n hotel gaan bly. Verwag 'n plaashuis, in 'n redelike toestand, met olielampe, 'n goeie yskas, en 'n donkie, wat sukkel om die water warm te maak vir stort, en swak waterdruk. Die toegangspaaie is baie swak (sinkplaat). Ons het 2 nagte gebly, 'n derde sou die kuier vervolmaak het. Verbeel jou, geen selfoon, geen internet, geen geraas.

Perfect silence, beautiful scenery.

Paulshoek is the right place if you want to be quiet, do little. I had a lot of fun cycling up Gannaga pass, and just experienced our country's natural beauty. Don't expect luxuries, for that you can stay in a hotel. Expect a farmhouse, in reasonable condition, with oil lamps, a good fridge, and a donkey, struggling to heat the water for showering, and poor water pressure. The access roads are very poor (zinc plate). We stayed 2 nights, a third would have made the visit perfect. Imagine, no cell phone, no internet, no noise.
