9/10
Reviewed Jul 6, 2026Beautiful location on a farm, crazy friendly doggos (which I love!), the host was able to meet extra needs (we required an iron as there was not any in the room but host happily brought us one.) Simple layout, perfect for a short stay.
Although the electric blankets on the bed were amazing and needed, the room/house was freezing in mornings and evenings as there was no extra heating for the rooms. The rooms are quiet but quite close to each other so not entirely private.

Reviewed Mar 21, 2026Gorgeous setting against national park which meant nature was right on our doorstep.
Each room had a fan, but no air conditioner, which was missed due to the muggy nature of the area (hot and quite humid).

Reviewed Dec 3, 2024Peaceful location, everything you need, far away from town to feel you are on a farm but not so far that u can't drive to Wilderness and surrounds. Host very helpful and accommodating and easy reachable. Jessy and Andre are excellent host and make your stay personal.
They had some trouble with the WI-FI but Andre every time try to fix it and never complain if you bother them and reported it on the Monday, Not everything what is available shows on booking.com so I keep on need to ask the host what kitchen ware is available, is there a hairdryer ect, Maybe a more detailed list should be updated on booking.com

Reviewed Feb 20, 2024I don’t even know where to start. The guest houses are designed with so much love and there is nothing you could potentially miss. If there’s anything missing the lovely hosts make sure to give it to you. From more wood (free of charge) to a nice bottle of self made wine, they go out all the way. The location is amazing, the big windows allow you observe the idyllic nature, with some cute cows, alpacas roaming around (and even some baboons!) the 10-15 minute drive to the city center is just perfect to enjoy the peacefulness while not having to say no to all the cool activities possible nearby. Two days was just enough to spend some time in this little Paradise, but if we could’ve stayed longer, we’d do so in a second. Next time we visit, we definitely come back for some braai with the hosts, and to enjoy once again the privacy and the peacefulness.
