Was baie lekker en het meer gekry as verwag.

My vrou en ek het baie lekker en natuurlik baie smaaklike etes gehad. Meer as genoeg en keurig voorberei. Indien jy honger van die tafel opstaan is daar iets fout. Die gasvryheid van Willem en Erna was uit die boonste rakke. Die kennis van Willem het my verstom rakende die plaaslike geskiedenis en omgewing. En sommer in die algemeen. Dankie vir die lekker gesels en vriendelikheid. Ek sal beslis Waaidam aanbeveel.

Was very nice and got more than expected.

My wife and I had very nice and of course very tasty meals. More than enough and well prepared. If you get up from the table hungry, something is wrong. The hospitality of Willem and Erna was top notch. Willem's knowledge amazed me regarding the local history and environment. And just in general. Thanks for the nice chat and kindness. I would definitely recommend Waaidam.

Vriendelik, gasvry, lifelike stilte.

Ons het 'n plek nodig gehad om te oornag. Ons is gasvry ontvang, kon ontspan in 'n lieflike omgewing. Ons sal weer op Waaidam oornag in die toekoms.

Oornag op pad huis toe met my honde.

Die sterre was asemrowend. Dit was still en netjies. Die oord net 'n entjie van die grootpad op grondpad. Ek was egter nie haastig en Google Maps was seker van die aanwysings en die pad was nie sleg vir grondpad nie.

Overnight on the way home with my dogs.

The stars were breathtaking. It was quiet and tidy. The resort just a short distance from the main road on dirt road. However, I was not in a hurry and Google Maps was sure of the directions and the road was not bad for dirt road.

Ons het heerlik rustig gekuier.

Die gasteplaas het baie karakter en 'n gesellige kaggelvuur in die eetsaal. Die kamers is netjies, maar nie regtig ingerig vir "self-catering" nie. Ontbyt en aandete beskikbaar op aanvraag.

We had a lovely quiet time.

The guest farm has a lot of character and a cozy log fire in the dining room. The rooms are neat, but not really set up for "self-catering". Breakfast and dinner available on request.

Lekker plaasverblyf as dit is waarna jy opsoek is.

Werkende plaas met baie vriendelike en behulpsame staf. Redelik eenvoudig en basies. Goeie pryse vir verblyf, kos en drankies. Baie lekker boerekos en groot porsies.

Goeie waarde vir geld, rustige verblyf.

As jy van 'n lekker rustige plaas atmosfeer hou, is Waaidam net die regte plek. Lekker skoon en netjiese verblyf. Willem se geskiedkundige kennis van die omgewing is verstommend en ons kon nog ure luister na al die staaljies van verloë dae. Die opsionele brekfis was meer as genoeg en boonop spotgoedkoop.

Good value for money, peaceful stay.

If you like a nice and peaceful farm atmosphere, Waaidam is just the right place. Nice clean and tidy accommodation. Willem's historical knowledge of the area is amazing and we could listen for hours to all the anecdotes of bygone days. The optional breakfast was more than enough and also dirt cheap.

A fantastic experience for family with kids and pets.

We were welcomed so warmly, we felt immediately like we were staying with family. The accommodation was comfortable and had access to a fridge, microwave as well as kettles for tea and coffee. The food was fabulous and plentiful. Our son had a wonderful time and there was lots of him to do. We had a small puppy with us which was not a problem either. We will definitely be back for a longer stay. Willem, Thelma and Wessel were terrific hosts.
