Baie rustig.

Die woonplek is baie netjies, maar hulle kan gerus 'n beter braaiplek voorsien. Die bosse om die huisie moet meer skoon gemaak word om die vallei te kan waardeer. Daar is geen selfoonopvangs nie.

Very calm.

The place of residence is very neat, but they can easily provide a better braai place. The woods around the cottage need to be cleared more to be able to appreciate the valley. There is no mobile reception.

Waarde vir geld.

Ja, baie lekker. Daar is net te min bystandligte vir beurtkrag. Goeie waarde vir geld.

Yes, very nice. There are just too few standby lights for load shedding. Good value for money.

Waarde vir geld verblyf in 'n pragtige omgewing.

Die huisie was baie netjies en ten spyte van die hitte buite, verstommend koel binne.

Pleasant.

Had an overnight stop. Lovely farm style accommodation. A little bit off the main routes if you use it for an overnight stop, so I would recommend a longer stay to fully appreciate the serene location and farm atmosphere.

Dankie aan Gerda wat ons vooraf gevra het of sy ons na Aloe Cottage kon skuif, want Sunflower Cottage was besig om geverf te word. Ons het Aloe Cottage geniet. Alles wat jy nodig het Curly die een hond ons elke aand besoek.

The cottage was really lovely amd had everything you need. I don't think the roof is insulated, so it can get very cold inside, but the fireplace makes up for it. It is a lovely place and the walk on the farm was great.

Lovely and peaceful.

Ideale plek vir naweek en om heeltemal te ontspan.

Ons kuier was kort, maar dis baie mooi daar. Vriendelike gasvrou en netjiese, skoon akkommodasie. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel. Gasteplaas is effens afgeleë so ons sou 'n bietjie melk waardeer het en natuurlik lampolie, want dit was beurtkrag ook.

Ideal place for weekend and to completely relax.

Our visit was short, but it's very beautiful there. Friendly hostess and neat, clean accommodation. Would definitely recommend it. Gasteplaas is a bit remote so we would have appreciated some milk and of course lamp oil as it was load shedding too.

Vriendelike ontvangs. Baie skoon, netjies en gerieflik met alles wat nodig is. Die rustige plaasatmosfeer is onbeskryflik. Ware lafenis vir die siel! Een dag is te min - bly gerus langer.

Lekker rustig.

Hier kan kinders plaas op sy beste ervaar en jy kan die hond ook saamvat. Jy moet ook die konfyt probeer wat op die plaas gemaak word van hulle eie vrugte en groente. Lekker!

Nice and quiet.

Here children can experience the farm at its best and you can also take the dog along. You should also try the jam that is made on the farm from their own fruits and vegetables. Nice!

Peaceful farm experience, just what I was looking for.

This family-run guest farm is the perfect place to stay if you treasure the peace and beauty of remote areas. My cottage was simple but comfortable and the hosts very welcoming.

So 'n rustige wegbreek.

Ek het so 'n bietjie soos Heidi gevoel, in die berge met die diertjies en die ongelooflike stilte. Perfekte wegbreek. En ons 1 jarige het haarself amper morsdood gespeel.

Such a peaceful getaway.

I felt a bit like Heidi, in the mountains with the animals and the incredible silence. Perfect getaway. And our 1 year old almost played herself to death.

Pragtige, netjiese, versorgde ou plaashuis in die stilte van die Klein Karoo. Heerlik gekuier!

Die hoflikheid van die jongeling Thomas by ontvangs was prysenswaardig. Dankie jongman dat jy ons so welkom laat voel het.

Ons het vreeslik lekker op die stoep gesit en die stilte geniet op die plaas.

Die kinders het die diere baie geniet en die vriendelikheid van die gesin se kinders. Ons kon ons hondekind ook saamneem. Dit was 'n heerlike naweek baie goed vir die siel. Ons het die stilte van die natuur baie geniet. Weg van die stad se gejaag. Die huisie was baie gerieflik en skoon. Alles wat jy nodig het is daar.

We sat very nicely on the stoep and enjoyed the silence on the farm.

The children really enjoyed the animals and the friendliness of the family's children. We could also take our dog with us. It was a lovely weekend very good for the soul. We really enjoyed the silence of nature. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The cottage was very comfortable and clean. Everything you need is there.

Super escape from city life!

It was the ideal place to relax and unwind. The children had the time of their lives feeding the animals, milking the cows and goats and collecting chicken eggs in the afternoons! The stars at night are a sight to experience!
