Ek en my kollega het al 2 keer daar 'n "pitstop" gehad tussen afsprake.

Soos elke besoek daar, was dit weereens baie lekker om van die stad se gejaag weg te kom en in 'n rustige en stille plekkie te kon rus.

My colleague and I have had a "pit stop" there 2 times between appointments.

Like every visit there, it was once again very nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and be able to rest in a peaceful and quiet place.

Russtop tussen dorpe en afsprake.

Dit is 'n pragtige plekkie wat net kalmte en rustigheid bied. Ek is mal oor al die oudhede, het my bietjie teruggevat na die goeie ou dae. Ek sal dit aanbeveel vir enige iemand wat weg wil kom van die stad se gejaag om te ontspan.

Stop over and rest during a medical trip.

Rather quirky decor, tastefully done, comfortable bed, very relaxing and quiet. Maybe need to have a different plan for the water pump, seems a waste to have to run the generator to ensure guests get water. Gravity not a better option?

Nie die eerste keer dat ons van The Ancient Copper Shed gebruik maak nie. Uitstekende waarde vir geld.

Die akkommodasie by The Ancient Copper Shed, Sumer sowel as Egypte, is onvergeetlik in die ware sin van die woord. Dit is met soveel sorg ingerig, en natuurlik ook baie in die kol met al die items wat 'repurposed' aangewend is. Die beddegoed is luuks en kraakskoon. Die natuurgeluide en verwydering van stadsgeraas, tesame met die naby-genoeg-aan-Potchefstroom-ligging, maak The Ancient Copper Shed die logiese keuse wanneer ons in dié omgewing moet oorslaap. Mens moet eintlik tyd maak om vir 'n naweek hier te kuier met vriende en familie, want daar is veilige speelplek en gerieflike braaiplekke. Parkering is onder 'n afdak en die eiendom is veilig omhein.

Not the first time we have used The Ancient Copper Shed. Excellent value for money.

The accommodation at The Ancient Copper Shed, Sumer as well as Egypt, is unforgettable in the truest sense of the word. It has been furnished with so much care, and of course also very spot on with all the items that have been 'repurposed'. The bedding is luxurious and spotless. The sounds of nature and removal of city noise, together with the close-enough-to-Potchefstroom location, make The Ancient Copper Shed the logical choice when we have to spend the night in this area. You should actually make time to spend a weekend here with friends and family, because there is a safe playground and convenient barbecue areas. Parking is under a canopy and the property is securely fenced.

Ancient Copper.

Die naam en huisie pas beslis bymekaar. Baie antieke en interessante koper items in huisie. Heerlike kaggel! Gasgeyser dalk bietjie klein vir behoefte van 4 persone (veral in winter) en sou dalk net 'n deur na badkamer verkies in plaas van 'n gordyn en dalk blinders/gordyne voor badkamervenster by stort. Andersins, lekker gebly!

The name and house definitely fit together. Many antique and interesting copper items in cottage. Lovely fireplace! Gas geyser maybe a bit small for need of 4 people (especially in winter) and would maybe just prefer a door to bathroom instead of a curtain and maybe blinds/curtains in front of bathroom window at shower. Otherwise, nice stay!

Egypt was 'n wonderlike verrassing en heerlike wegbreek. Die eienaars het soveel moeite gedoen met die dekor. Ons sal beslis weer in die toekoms daar bly. Dit is 'n pragtige en heerlike rustige winterwegbreek en die kaggel is 'n defnitiewe pluspunt!

Teleurgesteld in Egypt se buitestort, braai area en omgewing.

Die binneversiering van Egypt is uniek en die huisie was skoon, netjies en baie goed toegerus. Tydens loadshedding is daar egter oombliklik geen druppel water in die krane om te bad of stort of die toilet te trek nie. Ons is 'n paar ure voor ons arriveer het daarvan in kennis gestel dat ons self moet voorsiening maak. Die eiendom voorsien wel 10L drink water in 'n houer. Omrede die toilet se bak so hoog is, is dit moeilik om water met 'n houer in die toilet te gooi om te kan trek. Die buitestort wat in die tuin geadverteer word, het vir ons uitgestaan bo ander verblyf opsies, hierdie stort is egter omring deur lang veld gras en onkruid. Die buitestort en braai area voel nie privaat nie, dit is slegs 'n baie kort afstand van die ander huisie, Summer. Die uitsig op die stoep is 'n veld wat toegegroei is deur lang onkruid. Egypt se huisie is netjies, maar die braai area, buitestort en buite ruimtes kan aandag kry. Daar is nie foto's op die advertensie van die buitestort of braai area nie.

Disappointed in Egypt's outdoor shower, braai area and surroundings.

The interior decoration of Egypt is unique and the cottage was clean, tidy and very well equipped. However, during loadshedding there is not a single drop of water in the taps for bathing or showering or flushing the toilet. We were informed a few hours before we arrived that we would have to cater for ourselves. The property does provide 10L of drinking water in a container. Because the toilet's bowl is so high, it is difficult to pour water into the toilet with a container to flush. The outdoor shower advertised in the garden stood out to us over other accommodation options, however this shower is surrounded by long fields of grass and weeds. The outdoor shower and braai area does not feel private, it is only a very short distance from the other cottage, Summer. The view on the porch is a field overgrown with tall weeds. Egypt's cottage is neat, but the braai area, outdoor shower and outdoor spaces could use attention. There are no photos on the ad of the outdoor shower or braai area.

The Ancient Copper Shed 's response

Dankie vir jou terugvoer, Rassie, maar die resensie is regtig buite konteks en oordrewe.
As jy mooi opgelet het - die buitestort is met Elderberry, suurlemoen, granaat, en blueberry strategies beplant juis sodat jy meer privaatheid kan hê, en daarby omring met 'n gevlegte afskorting. Op die paadjie na die stort is geurgras geplant, nie vuilgoed nie.
Die buite braaiarea is omring met bome en struike, asook 'n lae heining, sodat jy nogsteeds die wild in die wildskamp kan sien. Sumer (let op die spelling, want dit verwys na die antieke land Sumerië in Engels) is nagenoeg 40m daarvandaan, en daardie braaiarea kan jy nie eers daarvandaan sien nie. Dus daar is genoeg privaatheid, en niemand het al ooit daaroor gekla nie. Sumer huisie was nie eers beset nie, dus was julle alleen op die uitgebreide perseel.
Die huisies is in 'n klein omheinde wildskamp geleë, met diere wat daar vry rondbeweeg - dit wat jy as vuilgoed gesien het, is veldgras, en die mis verder van die huisie, van die diere se mis - heel natuurlik.
Soos in die inligtingstuk in die huisie genoem, kon ek, as so versoek, die kragopwekkker aangesit het vir bepaalde tydperke. Jy sou dus met gemak kon bad of stort soos wat jou behoefte was. Die krag het ook, soos die skedule aan jou voorsien is, om 18:30 (18:10) aangegaan. Die kragsituasie was dus nie problematies gewees nie.

Quirky and wonderful.

Great place to escape with my dogs as it's not that far from JHB. Very interesting decor. Wonderful walks were available in the game park next door and it was special having the animals pass by. The place has all you would need and a lovely outside fire area. The hosts were very attentive. Unfortunately the traffic noise, despite the road being fairly far away could be heard most of the time but not much that a host can do about that. The two cottages share a fenced area, but only one has its own dog fence. It would be the ideal place to book out the whole venue for a weekend of family/friends/dogs and braais. Thank you for everything, we enjoyed it a lot.

Die verblyf is goed geleë, 'n lekker veilig bosveldgevoel en was goed toegerus.

Was beīndruk deurdat die eienaar 'n WhatsApp stuur voor ons vertrek met alle inligting oor die verblyf en later die stuur van die load shedding-skedule. Ongelukkig geen wild gesien nie, geen stap oetes soos gemeld nie, paadjies naby die huis se gras was lank en kon nie daar stap nie. Het 'n probleem met die stort gehad, kry nie die water gestel nie, dan te koud of te warm, dit bly nie stabiel nie. 'n Rak in die kombuis om kruideniersware te pak sal welkom wees. Was nie gelukkig toe onverwagte gaste soos bruin kakkerlakke wat so nou en dan hul verskying in die kombuis gemaak het nie.

The accommodation is well located, a nice and safe bushveld feeling and was well equipped.

Was impressed by the owner sending a WhatsApp before we left with all information about the stay and later sending the load shedding schedule. Unfortunately no wildlife seen, no walking meals as mentioned, paths near the house's grass were long and could not walk there. Had a problem with the shower, can't get the water set, then too cold or too hot, it doesn't stay stable. A shelf in the kitchen to pack groceries would be welcome. Wasn't happy when unexpected guests like brown cockroaches made their appearance in the kitchen every now and then.

The Ancient Copper Shed 's response

Dankie vir die terugvoer, Johanna. Ongelukkig was die kommunikasie andersins nie voldoende nie. Wat die staproete aanbetref: Daar is 'n staproete in die wildskamp, en as jul net gevra het sou ek vir julle die sleutel van die hek gegee het soos ek aan die ander gaste gedoen het. Wat die sesvoetige diertjies aanbetref: ek is bewus daarvan, en pas 'n selektiewe spuitprogram toe, en as jul net mooi gekyk het sou julle die 'bait' daarvoor gesien het. Soos in die inligtingstuk vermeld, is die huisie omring met natuurlike veld wat ek probeer bewaar op mikro vlak ook, en sal vier-, ses- en agtvoetige diertjies daar rondom altyd daar wees. Wat die warmwater aanbetref: die waterdruk werk met 'n drukpomp soos ek in die inligting vermeld het, en sal die druk soms afneem en toeneem soos die pomp outomaties funksioneer. Ek hoop andersins dat julle die kunswerk waaraan soveel tyd bestee is, geniet het.

Decent enough accommodation (and nice outside area) - few issues negatively affected our stay.

1. There are no walking "trails" on the property - other than the immediate area around the chalet or along the road back to the main gate. 2. Loadshedding 3 times daily was a major factor - although this is outside the owner's control, it also meant no water during that time (and not being able to flush the toilet ). Having some solar power and an independent water system is recommended. On a positive note, we thoroughly enjoyed the frequent visits by 2 - 5 of the resident 7 dogs and that it was so quiet.

Unieke behuising.

Ons het ongelukkig net een aand hier spandeer, maar sal vir seker aanbeveel vir langer verblyf. Baie unieke dekor wat fantasties is. Dankie vir die melk en bottel skoon drinkwater. Lekker buite kuierarea/braai area.

Exactly what we needed! A very relaxing stay where our doggies could roam around freely.

Just a short drive from JHB and you feel like you are so far away from any hustle and bustle! The Ancient Copper Shed's area is so peaceful and the morning visits from the resident cows are a treat. Our smallest dog thought he had met his extended family when meeting and playing with the baby cows, haha. The farm dog Lika is so friendly and precious as well, we really enjoyed her company. Adriaan is a great host, we felt so comfortable during our stay. The Sumer shed is so well equipped with anything you might need, it is kept very clean and tidy as well. The highlight of course is the unique decor inside the shed, the ancient antiques and books kept us intrigued all weekend! The hammock in the picnic area is lovely, it was very relaxing hanging out in the hammock between the trees. The nice big bed is so comfortable and both the inside and outside showers are lovely! This is a gem of a place, we will definitely be going back. Thank you Adriaan and Lika.

Baie unieke ervaring. Ons het die natuurskoon en rustigheid baie geniet.

Dit was heerlik om so privaat en rustig te kan kuier. Die huisie is in 'n baie goeie toestand en baie uniek ingerig. Ons het ons verstom aan die kreatiewe gebruik van die koper en oudhede om die atmosfeer te skep. Die kaarte het lewendige besprekings ontlok. Die koedoes wat ons van anderkant die draad kom beloer het, het mens laat voel jy is in die wildtuin. Ons het heerlik geslaap. Die badkamer was baie uniek. Ideaal vir 'n gesin wat tyd saam wil spandeer. Die huisie is buite die dorp maar net ongeveer 15 min se ry van die winkels af.

Very unique experience. We really enjoyed the scenery and tranquility.

It was wonderful to be able to visit so privately and peacefully. The cottage is in very good condition and very uniquely furnished. We were amazed at the creative use of brass and antiques to create the atmosphere. The cards sparked lively discussions. The kudus that stalked us from the other side of the wire made you feel like you were in the wildlife park. We slept great. The bathroom was very unique. Ideal for a family that wants to spend time together. The cottage is outside the town but only about a 15 minute drive from the shops.

Die bosgevoel sommer om die draai!

Baie netjies en dit voel regtig of jy in die bos en veld ver van als bly, dit als sommer so om die draai van ons (Vanderbijlpark). Pragtige omgewing, netjies in stand gehou en nie net die gewone geriewe en dekor nie. Die kuierarea is ook heerlik. Ons was twee vriende wat daar gebly het en ek het toe in die dakkamer geslaap - enigste klein klagte is dat die beddens koppenente kort om te keer dat die kussings verloor. Julle kan dalk 'n plan oorweeg. Sal met graagte weer soontoe gaan. Dis regtig 'n oulike plek.

The forest feeling just around the corner!

Very neat and it really feels like you're staying in the woods and fields far from everything, it's just around the corner from us (Vanderbijlpark). Beautiful surroundings, neatly maintained and not just the usual amenities and decor. The visiting area is also lovely. We were two friends staying there and I slept in the attic - only minor complaint is that the beds lack headboards to prevent the pillows from losing. You might consider a plan. Would love to go there again. It's a really cute place.

Wou vir 'n paar dae net wegkom uit die besige stadsgejaag.

Wat 'n wonderlike ondervinding. Die dekor is asemrowend. Alles was gerieflik en netjies gewees. Die feit dat die slegs 10 minute van Potch af is het dit moontlik gemaak om vinnig dorp to te gaan vir die noodsaaklikhede wat ons vergeet het. Ons het verskriklik baie diere in die wildkamp gesien. Dit was wonderlik om in sulke pragtige, gerieflike akkommodasie in die natuur, tog net 'n klipgooi van die samelewing af te wees.

The fact that it is only 10 minutes from Potch made it possible to quickly go to town for the essentials we forgot. We saw an awful lot of animals in the game camp. It was wonderful to be in such beautiful, comfortable accommodation in nature, yet only a stone's throw from society.

Beste akkommodasie ooit.

Ancient Copper Shed se Sumer en Egypt huisies is ruim, silwerskoon, baie deeglik toegerus en uitstekende waarde vir geld. Dis gerieflik naby Potchefstroom, en die veld en stilte en lekker braaiplek en stoepsitplek is 'n lafenis vir besige stedelinge. Die kaggel binne is lieflik. Dis ongetwyfeld ons gunsteling oornagplek in die Potchefstroom-omgewing. Baie dankie!

It's undoubtedly our favorite overnight stop in the Potchefstroom area. Thank you very much!

The Ancient Copper Shed exceeded expectations.

The Egypt Shed is beautiful and extremely well-maintained. The property is also beautiful. The farm dog, Zara, became a good friend, and our 8-year-old cried when saying goodbye to her. The only complaint, and it's a small one - The Shed is a bit too close to Potchestroom - this is only noticeable at night, when one can hear traffic and see the lights of the city. It wasn't enough of a bother to prevent us from wanting to return.

Lekker gekuier, die dekor is regtig baie uniek!

Voorstelle vir toekoms: Groter yskas met meer vriesplek vir groter gesinne of langer verblyf. Oond in geval van slegte weer/koue. Meer hout vir braai en kaggel, of dui vooraf aan dat hout te koop is (kontant).

This review is being shown in its original language.

Have a nice time, the decor is really very unique!

Suggestions for the future: Larger fridge with more freezer space for larger families or longer stays. Oven in case of bad weather/cold. More wood for barbecue and fireplace, or indicate in advance that wood is for sale (cash).

Snoesig, gemaklik, rustig, netjies en skoon.

Ons is vriendelik verwelkom en aanwysings gegee sonder moeite ingeklok. Was vriendelik verras met al die uiteenseting van die "rustic" eenheid. Ons was die hele naweek "opgepas" deur Leeu en Zara ons waghonde. Die Ancient Copper Shed is waarlik die plek vir rustigheid en ontspanning. Aan Sonja ons gasvrou het aan alles gedink om die ervarìng gemaklik te maak, het nie eenkeer nodig gehad om vrae te vrae of te wonder oor enige iets nie, alles tot jou beskiking. Dankie vir die ekstra houtjies.

Unique antique decor.

Easy to find destination. All interaction by WhatsApp. Room was very spacious and well kitted out. Loads of unique twists on the use of all sorts of unusual items including furniture and staircase made from books. Kitchen was well set up and we had everything we needed although the fridge is tiny if you have lots of beers. We chose the coldest weekend of this winter and it was freezing, but we sat by the fire and kept warm in a very comfortable bed. Will definitely go back when it's warmer.

The Ancient Copper Shed het al my verwagtinge oortref.

Een aand weggebreek saam met my vrou na hierdie wonderlike bestemming. Gerieflik naby aan Potch, maar die gevoel van bosveld neem oor sodra jy op die stoep gaan sit en die son sien sak. Adriaan se oog vir oudhede en die gedetailleerde koperversierings oral in die plekkie is uitstekend. Ons het absoluut niks kort gekom nie, en dit was duidelik dat daar aan elke moontlike behoefte van sy gaste gedink was. Die keuses van ingelegde vrugte in die kombuis was 'n aangename verrassing ─ doen so voort. Dit was ongelukkig net een aand beskikbaar tydens ons besoek, maar ons beplan reeds ons volgende (langer) wegbreek soontoe. As jy na 'n plek soek waar jy tuis voel sodra jy by die voordeur instap en die mooi goed in die lewe waardeer, dan is hierdie die plek vir jou.

This review is being shown in its original language.

The Ancient Copper Shed exceeded all my expectations.

One night away with my wife to this amazing destination. Conveniently close to Potch, but the feeling of woodland takes over as soon as you sit on the porch and watch the sun go down. Adriaan's eye for antiques and the detailed copper decorations everywhere in the place are excellent. We lacked absolutely nothing, and it was clear that every possible need of his guests had been thought of. The selections of pickled fruit in the kitchen was a pleasant surprise ─ keep up the good work. Unfortunately it was only available one night during our visit, but we are already planning our next (longer) getaway there. If you are looking for a place where you feel at home as soon as you walk in the front door and appreciate the finer things in life, then this is the place for you.

Pragtige blyplek, netjies en aandag aan detail! Hou baie van die Egiptiese tema wat deurgetrek word.

Rustige, bosveld atmosfeer. Vriendelike diens van die eienaar. Baie dankie! Het die oorbly baie geniet, kort aand het soos 'n vakansie-wegbreek gevoel.

Hierdie was die ongelooflikste, rustigste plek ook.

Wow. Woorde kan nie beskryf hoe mooi intiem die plekkie is nie. Ek sal enige getroude paartjie wat hulle huweliksherdenking of selfs net 'n lekker wegbreek van kinders wil geniet, aanbeveel.

Heerlike wegbreek uit die stad se geraas.

Ons het 'n paar dae op plaas buite Potch gaan bly. Wat 'n heerlike ervaring. Die plek is netjies en ruim. As jy van vroeë dae hou, is dit die plek om eksklusiewe oudhede te sien. Vir 'n wegbreek uit die stad, word Ancient Copper Shed beslis aanbeveel. Maklik om te kry aangesien hulle vir jou ligging deurstuur.

Lovely getaway from the city's noise.

We spent a few days on a farm outside Potch. What a wonderful experience. The place is neat and spacious. If you like early days, this is the place to see exclusive antiques. For a getaway from the city, Ancient Copper Shed is definitely recommended. Easy to find as they forward the location.

Rustig, asemrowend mooi, baie geniet.

Om die plekkie te bespreek is regtig die moeite werd, daar nou wel nie TV of WiFi nie maar dis 'n plekkie om te kuier en ontspan, die braai-area is fantasties, alles wat jy nodig het is beskikbaar. Die plekkie is vreeslik gerieflik, die atmosfeer is so rustig jy wil net ontspan. Ek is absoluut gek oor die plek, ek gaan dit nog baie besoek. Twee klein dingetjies wat ek vir die eienaar wil sê dat hy bewus is, is dat ons vreeslik gesukkel het om die plekkie op Google Maps te kry selfs nadat hy die pin location gestuur het, gelukkig was ons voorheen daar en kon die pad vind, ons sal ook graag 'n bietjie meer privaatheid wou hê, byvoorbeeld 'n afbakening tussen die badkamer en die kamer omdat daar nou mammas en kinders en so aan die plekkies deel. Baie baie dankie vir die vriendelike diens, ons gaan julle beslis weer sien.

Peaceful, breathtakingly beautiful, very much enjoyed.

To book the place is really worth it, there is no TV or WiFi but it is a place to socialise and relax, the braai area is fantastic, everything you need is available. The place is very comfortable, the atmosphere is so peaceful you just want to relax. I'm absolutely crazy about the place, I'm still going to visit a lot. Two little things I want to tell the owner so that he is aware of, is that we struggled to find the place on Google Maps even after he sent the pin location, fortunately we were there before and were able to find the way, we would also like a little more privacy, for example a demarcation between the bathroom and the room because there are now moms and children and so on. Thank you so much for the friendly service, we will definitely see you again.

Awesome for a quiet breakaway from all the noise and rush. Wake up to sounds of birds only.

It is something to experience all the effort that has been put into the building and decor. Not much to do but I enjoyed my stay. Very clean and the owner is extremely friendly and helpful, he personally delivered wood to our doorstep. Excellent for a couple or couples to break away from the city noise and spend a peaceful time there. Not far from the shops if you should run short of anything. I will surely recommend other people to experience the time at The Ancient Copper Shed.

Ons het elke oomblik van die naweek geniet. Die diens was uitstekend. Die plek pynlik skoon en netjies en geen moeite is ontsien om ons welkom te laat voel nie. Hout vir die braaier en vir die kaggel is voorsien. Ons het heerlik gekuier en ontspan.

Weg van die wêreld.

Alles was perfek, 'n baie aangename en cosy plek vir ons en ons diere-kinders. Ons sou net 1 ding aanbeveel, dat die aanwysings beter uiteengesit is en/of 'n naambord teen die hek of by die pad opgaan. Dit was bitter moeilik om in die aand die plek te kry en die address was nie 213 Wilgeboom maar wel 26 Wilgeboom.

Everything was perfect, a very pleasant and cozy place for us and our animal children. We would only recommend 1 thing, that the directions are better laid out and/or a sign goes up on the gate or by the road. It was extremely difficult to find the place in the evening and the address was not 213 Wilgeboom but 26 Wilgeboom.

Elke hoekie in die cottage het iets besonders, ons het foto's geneem om vir almal te wys maar daar is net te veel amazing goed om op 'n foto vas te lê. Lieflike bosveldgevoel buite met baie wild wat reg verby die cottage loop. Waarde vir geld, ek sal die plek beslis aanbeveel.

Om elke hoek en draai wag nog 'n verrassing.

'n Mens kan sien die eienaar het homself vreeslik geniet toe hy die pragtige plekkie gemaak het. Ons is vriendelik ontvang,die verblyf was skoon en dit het gevoel of ons op 'n wildsplaas uitspan met die bokkies wat daar naby gewei het. Die kinders kon nie wag om te gaan slaap nie en my man het hom verkyk aan die ou landkaarte wat in blindings omskep is. Maar ek wil nie als uitlap nie, gaan kyk self.

One can see that the owner really enjoyed himself when he made the beautiful place. We were kindly received, the accommodation was clean and it felt like we were spending time on a game farm with the goats that grazed nearby. The kids couldn't wait to go to bed and my husband squinted at the old maps that had been turned into blinds. But I don't want to spoil it, go see for yourself.
