Relaxing and quiet.

Beautiful place. The garden is just a relaxing space. We enjoyed the stay.

Heerlike rus in die Vrystaat tussen die kosmosse.

Ons het nie by die akkommodasie kon bly nie agv n kortsluiting en brand skade maar Lindie en haar man het ons op 'n plaas langs hulle plaas akkommodeer in hul ouers se huis, pragtige plek met mooiste uitsig op die berge en ons het so lekker gekuier en gerus. Sal definitief weer soontoe gaan.

Wonderful rest in the Free State between the cosmos.

We couldn't stay at the accommodation due to a short circuit and fire damage, but Lindie and her husband accommodated us on a farm next to their farm in their parents' house, a beautiful place with a beautiful view of the mountains and we had such a good time and rest assured. Will definitely go there again.

'n Naweek van fiasko.

Ons wou spesifiek wegkom van die gewone geraas, maar dit was ons nie beskore nie. Tydens ons besoek is die koeie en kalwers van mekaar gespeen deur hulle forseerd te skei. Al wat jy van sonop tot sonsondergang en tot in die nag gehoor het, was die beeste wat na mekaar roep. Ons was so ontsteld daaroor dat ons na net 2 dae opgepak en huistoe gegaan het. Dit was uiters teleurstellend, omdat ons baie daarna uitgesien het. Die paaie is ook in 'n verskriklike toestand, jy bid net om aan die einde daarvan te kom. Die plaas is ook 'n ent van die dorpe af, wat in elk geval niks het om te sien nie en ook net verval het. Definitief nie die geld en diesel werd nie. Ons het net hier kom bly omdat 'n ander gastehuis ons bespreking op die laaste minuut opgemors het en Clarens vol was.

A weekend of fiasco.

We specifically wanted to get away from the usual noise, but that was not our choice. During our visit, the cows and calves were weaned from each other by forcibly separating them. All you heard from sunrise to sunset and into the night was the cattle calling to each other. We were so upset about it that we packed up and went home after just 2 days. It was extremely disappointing, because we were really looking forward to it. The roads are also in terrible condition, you just pray to get to the end of it. The farm is also a long way from the towns, which in any case have nothing to see and have also just fallen into disrepair. Definitely not worth the money and diesel. We only came to stay here because another guest house messed up our booking at the last minute and Clarens was full.

Ons verwagtinge was oortref.

Tipiese Vrystaatse plaasgevoel met styl en luuksheid daarby.

Was rustig.

Met ons aankoms was daar 2 bediendes wat ons ontvang het. Hulle het nie vir ons verstaan nie en ons ook nie vir hulle nie. Die eienaar het later homself kom voorstel aan ons.

Was calm.

Upon our arrival there were 2 servants who received us. They didn't understand us and we didn't understand them. The owner later came to introduce himself to us.

Lieflike wegbreekplekkie met baie aangename gashere!

Ons het ons verblyf by Saxon Park baie geniet! Dis 'n pragtige plasie met baie mooi tuine en uitsig oor die omgewing. Die eenheid was mooi ingerig met 'n gemaklike bed. Ons het nie nodig gehad om die gemeenskaplike sitkamer/kombuisie met iemand te deel nie, wat baie gerieflik was, aangesien die spasie in die yskas 'n bietjie beperk was vir selfsorg vir meer mense. Daar's 'n fantastiese biblioteek in die leefarea en lekker rusbanke. Ons het nie vooraf besef dat ontbyt saam met die gasgesin om hulle kombuistafel bedien word nie, so dit was 'n bietjie anders as waaraan ons gewoond is, maar dit was baie aangenaam. 'n Besonders lekker ontbyt is bedien met varsgebakte scones, eier en spek en die gashere was baie vriendelik, behulpsaam en aangename geselskap. Goeie waarde vir geld!

Lovely getaway with very pleasant hosts!

We really enjoyed our stay at Saxon Park! It's a beautiful place with very nice gardens and a view of the surroundings. The unit was nicely furnished with a comfortable bed. We didn't need to share the common living room/kitchen with anyone, which was very convenient, as the space in the fridge was a bit limited for self-catering for more people. There's a fantastic library in the living area and nice couches. We didn't realize beforehand that breakfast was served with the host family around their kitchen table, so it was a little different from what we're used to, but it was very pleasant. A particularly tasty breakfast was served with freshly baked scones, egg and bacon and the hosts were very friendly, helpful and pleasant company. Good value for money!

Hartelike, vriendelike mense in 'n beeldskone bergagtige gebied met 'n heerlike plaas-atmosfeer.

Dit was beslis 'n onverwagte heerlike bestemming wat praat met die uitgeputte mens. Hier kan jy ontspan en wegbreek van die alledaagse gewoel. Wees verseker dat die stilte vir jou wag sodat hart, siel en gedagtes kan rustig raak. Die vriendelikheid van ons gasvrou en haar man was vir ons heerlik. Gaste word vriende. Die wonderlike uitsig vanaf die berg-piekniek sal jou asem wegslaan. 'n Besliste aanbeveling vir enige iemand wat werklik wil rus.

Warm, friendly people in a picturesque mountainous area with a lovely farm atmosphere.

It was definitely an unexpectedly delightful destination that speaks to the exhausted person. Here you can relax and break away from the everyday hustle and bustle. Be assured that the silence awaits you so that heart, soul and mind can rest. The kindness of our hostess and her husband was wonderful for us. Guests become friends. The wonderful view from the mountain picnic will take your breath away. A definite recommendation for anyone who really wants to rest.
