Beautiful, relaxing, scenic, welcoming. Simply put, we want to go back. If you are thinking about booking accommodation at Basterkloof - do it and do it now.

Wonderful. Amazing place, really enjoyed it. Everything is much better than in the photos, suggest you upload newer and better photos on the website, we were pleasantly surprised. Just not sure if there are any bass in the dam, couldn't find any and didn't see any either. One negative is the fridge without any freezer space, but that's a minor thing.

Wonderlik. Amazing plek, het dit baie geniet. Alles is baie beter as op die fotos, stel voor julle laai nuwer en beter foto's op die webtuiste, ons was aangenaam verras. Net nie seker of daar enigge bass in die dam is nie, kon niks kry en ook niks gesien. Een negatief is die yskas sonder enigge vriesspasie, maar sit is 'n kleinigeit.

We enjoyed our stay and escape from the busy city. We would definitely recommend. The river cottage is located on the lower section of the farm. We enjoyed the beautiful view of the horses, the silence and escape from the busy city. The river cottage has a large main bedroom and a door that exits onto the patio. The bathroom is very spacious with a bath and shower and is accessible from the lounge area (with a bunk bed) as well as the main bedroom. There is a river outlook close to the river cottage; however, there was not much water in the river when we were there. There is a gate surrounding the cottage, and I am sure you will be allowed to bring your dogs along. There is also a hot tub (heating with wood). We did not heat it up and used it to cool down during the hot days.

Beautiful and peaceful. If you want peace and quiet, this is the place to be. You are surrounded by nature and feel safe. There are hiking trails, and the dam was a perfect way to cool down. Jacobus was very friendly and helpful with our queries.

Peaceful and spacious. Wonderful quiet farm. We loved swimming in the dam - it was a huge relief in the hot weather! Perfect for a quiet and peaceful family holiday.

Tranquil and relaxing. The farm stay was peaceful and relaxing, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The natural surroundings and quiet nights, only interrupted by lions roaring, make it a great place to unwind. Our kids embraced the switch off from daily life and enjoyed the walks, paddling, and swimming. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for peace and calm.

Quiet and comfortable. It was wonderfully peaceful and the owners went out of their way to make our stay memorable.

Rustig en gerieflik. Dit was heerlik rustig en die eienaars het uit hul pad gegaan om ons verblyf onvergeetlik te maak.
