Netjiese plek met vriendelike eienaars.

Net die plek om jou siel te laat rus.

Baie rustig en stil omgewing. Tipies plaas. Die huis het aan al ons behoeftes voldoen - meer as genoeg ruimte vir agt persone.

Fulfilled our expectations and more!

We were welcomed with beautiful fresh flowers from the amazing garden and felt completely at home. The house is well equipped, we made a minor suggestion for the kitchen, which was well received. Lovely beds and the fireplace warms the living area immediately and effectively. The warm blankets in the bedrooms all worked. Within walking distance to the lovely small but well equipped Spar which bakes their own bread. The roads ok despite very good rains just before we came.

So beautiful, and peaceful, centrally located near village.

Would highly recommend. Not only was it one of the most beautiful houses I have stayed in, but when I had questions, the owners responded immediately. Breathtaking views of the mountains. Amazing gardens, saw dozens of Cape Parrots and many Knysna Loeries. Magical place to stay.

Absolutely memorable, comfortable and clean.

We were a group of 11 people, from the Boksburg Hiking Club. The location was perfect for us, we did a few hikes from Trewennan. The birds in your gardens were beautiful and we used to sit and bird watch early morning and late at night. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable and we were so impressed with the cleanliness of the place.

Best view of the "Hogs" in a private, peaceful and comfortable family home.

Unfortunately when we checked in at 2pm the house was not ready for us as the previous guests had vacated late, however, when we eventually settled in we found the spacious family home very comfortably furnished, especially the lovely big bay-windowed main bedroom and excellent mattress! We also appreciated the wide range of board games, puzzles, books and comics to keep grandchildren occupied when not outdoors. We grandparents and parents appreciated the spacious kitchen, fridge, dishwasher and washing machine to cut down on chores! The house is at the end of a quiet country lane providing privacy, peace and quiet.

Ons het 'n absolute wonderlike vakansie gehad.

Trewennan is 'n pragtige goed ingerigte huis met alles wat nodig is om 'n heerlik vakansie te hê. Die aande was so rustig voor die kaggelvuur met die games en DVD's wat voorsien word en 'n plus is ook die hout wat elke dag verskaf word en ons hoef nooit te onthou om hout te gaan koop nie ... dink aan al die klein dingetjies.

Sprokiesmooi.

Ons het heerlik gekuier by Trewennan! Die rustige atmosfeer is 'n lafenis vir jou siel. Ons 3 jarige het die swings, tuin en legkaarte vreeslik geniet. Die kombuis is goed ingerig en die kothuis is groot en gemaklik. Beste van als: geen TV! Die eienaars is vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal verseker terugkeer as ons weer in Hogsback kuier.
