Reviewed Sep 14, 2026It was wonderful to escape the busy city life and enjoy the peace and beauty of the farm. We loved being surrounded by nature and waking up to the sound of the birds every morning. It was such a relaxing experience. Our cottage was lovely and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We also appreciated that the cottage was cleaned daily. The owner Ronel is incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful, which made our stay even more enjoyable.

The hospitality was excellent — friendly and welcoming — and the accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and just what we needed after a long day in the car. The peaceful atmosphere and beautiful views really helped us unwind. We’re so glad we chose to stay here in Wakkerstroom — it was a lovely surprise. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet and scenic getaway.

I don't like spiders, but they were everywhere. Not much they could do about this, as it is cleaned daily. Sadly its a consequence of being in nature. They did provide sprays etc scattered across the BNB and so i believe they did everything they could!

It was brilliant for us as there were just the two of us in a two-bed cottage so we could use the second bedroom as our ‘dressing room’ and we’re both small people so the rather tight bathroom didn’t bother us. It may be a bit challenging for larger guests tho.

Ich kann die Unterkunft nur loben und weiter empfehlen. Man kann sich dort gut selbst verpflegen. Die Küche ist riesig und es gibt draußen eine sehr große Terrasse mit Grillstelle und Sitzgelegenheiten. Die Zimmer sind klein aber liebevoll eingerichtet! Auch für Familien sehr zu empfehlen!
