Wat 'n lekker plek. 'n Plaas naby die see.

Ons het uitgesien om strand toe te stap, maar moes toe uitvind dat ons slegs by die strand kan uitkom dmv Die Mond Natuurreservaat, wat bietjie duur sou uitwerk teen R50 per kop vir ons groep. Ons het dus maar toe Waenhuiskrans toe gegaan. Die huis is baie goed ingerig, en Pof was 'n uitnemende gasheer. Almal van ons het dit vreeslik geniet.

What a nice place. A farm near the sea.

We were looking forward to walking to the beach, but then had to find out that we could only get to the beach through Die Mond Nature Reserve, which would work out a bit expensive at R50 per head for our group. So we went to Waenhuiskrans. The house is very well furnished, and Pof was an excellent host. All of us enjoyed it immensely.

Dear Elrina
Thank you for your review and comments. I am glad that you had a wonderful weekend away at our farm and glad to hear that you could go to Arniston / Waenhuiskraans. It is a pity that the entrance fee to De Mond works out quite expensive for day visitors - it is why we recommend a Wild Card (which allows access to De Mond and all other Cape Nature reserves). We hope to have you back again soon!
All the best, Colleen

Salig ontspan op die plaas.

Die ervaring sonder elektrisiteit was uitdagend lekker. Rustigheid ervaar. Neem kennis dat die ablusiegeriewe buite die woning is. Gasvryheid geniet. Goed omgesien na die gaste.

Blissfully relaxing on the farm.

The experience without electricity was defiantly enjoyable. Experiencing tranquility. Note that the ablution facilities are outside the residence. Enjoy hospitality. Well looked after the guests.

2nd time staying at Vogelgezang and again did not disappoint.

Love the candles, lamps and wood burning stove etc. Ping-pong table a winner with the kids and adults. Warm water by firing up the donkey also great fun. Will be back for sure in the summer, want to try out the swimming pool with sea view.

Vogelgezang is 'n heerlike wegbreekplaashuis met uitstekende ligging. Die huis is basies ingerig sonder elektrisiteit, maar bied alles wat mens nodig het vir 'n gesin met kinders of selfs 'n groter groep vriende.

Sal vir seker weer besoek.

Vogelgezang is a lovely getaway farmhouse with an excellent location. The house is basically furnished without electricity, but offers everything one needs for a family with children or even a larger group of friends.

Will visit again for sure.
