Adequate.

Our stay was fine, our main concern was cleanliness.

Rustig, stil en kalmerend.

Die tent was baie skoon en netjies. Alles wat nodig was, was daar. Maar definitief "rustic". Eienaars baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Bietjie ver uit die dorp maar rustig daar op die plaas. Daar was internet dekking wat lekker was vir my om te kon werk ook. Kon ver ente loop. Nie vir mense wat luuks verwag nie, want dis 'n tentkamp. Eienaar kan dalk net meer plek oopmaak tussen die bome en dek naby die water oprig vir visvang. Ons het die heeltyd veilig gevoel.

Peaceful, quiet and calming.

The tent was very clean and tidy. Everything needed was there. But definitely "rustic". Owners very friendly and helpful. A bit far out of town but peaceful there on the farm. There was internet coverage which was nice for me to be able to work too. Could walk far. Not for people who expect luxury, because it's a tent camp. Owner may just open more space between the trees and erect deck near the water for fishing. We felt safe the whole time.

It was brilliant love the continuous water flow and how peaceful it is.

The cabin is big enough but also small enough that you feel secluded. Wine and dined my lady here and she was over the moon with everything and best of all, she had no idea where we were going.

Great, just what we expected, enjoyed every day.

The only improvement I could suggest, is more signage to get there. If you don't have a GPS or have looked at the maps properly, you will battle to find the place. Otherwise 100% great place, even my dog had a blast.

Relaxation is key.

If you are looking for 5 star luxury then this is not the place to go to. If you love camping and the outdoors, you cannot ask for more. If you are looking for a bush retreat glamping, then look no further. Wake up with the birds and the sun shining straight into your tent, and listen to the rapids after they have gone over the weir, Braai on the deck, coffee on the deck and watch the water in the Teebus River go by. Spend the day reading your book, walk along to the weir, and if you are brave enough, go for a swim there. Watch the prolific birdlife in the reeds, and the ducks on the river. The perfect place for some good R&R.

Comfortable tents on the river, which contributes to the stay

Lovely accommodation on a working dairy farm with horses. We found the accommodation pleasant and affordable and the host friendly without being aver bearing - the way we like it. Will stay again.

Pragtige, rustige wegbreek. As jy iemand is wat lief is vir die natuur, is dit definitief die plek om te gaan.

Die tente is baie mooi ingerig en die eienaar is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het 'n fantastiese wegbreeknaweek gehad. Baie dankie vir die puik diens!

Great place and peaceful.

Ek wil net baie dankie sê vir 'n heerlike tyd. Dit is so mooi stil en rustig. Alles so netjies en vir die eerste keer vang ek twee groot geelvisse! Ek beveel dit vir enige mens aan wat rus en vrede soek. Sal beslis weer kom oornag. Baie dankie.
