Comfortable and peaceful. Vygie cottage was very comfortable and loved the animal life around the cottage. . Loved the view from the cottage windows and from the braai area. Thank you for keeping the braai area clean every day. The wood was great for braaing. Please note that the one lamp is not working next to bed.

Perfect, peaceful and pleasant. The accommodation was perfect, peaceful, pleasant for our family. Just sad that other campers did not take the 22h00 no noise in consideration and we had to wait for them to finish their drinking games and braaing the Friday and Saturday nights. It would be great if this rule can be followed and that the person on duty quiets disrespectful youngsters. Thank you for the late check out on Sunday, as it was such a beautiful day. Loved all the animal life on the farm. Thank you that we could spend so much time with Sidney, she was so protective.

Quiet and calm. It was very peaceful and the people at the camp were all friendly and made me feel at ease. I really enjoyed our time there and will definitely camp there again.

Rustig en kalm. Dit was baie rustig en die mense by die kamp was almal vriendelik en het my op my gemak laat voel. Ek het ons tydjie daar baie geniet en sal beslis weer daar gaan kamp.

Peaceful. I really enjoyed my stay. If you're looking for a camp that is peaceful and quiet, then De Bos is perfect. If you don't have all the fancy camping equipment, a tent is basically all you need because of the communal kitchen that is provided. Loved interacting with the horses and friendly dogs on site.

Hi Shaun, Thank you for leaving us a review, much appreciated. With regards to the communal kitchen, this is open to all campers, dorm and family room guests and it is a social area. We expect everyone to understand this and respect each other's space. We hope to host you soon again.

Nice. We had a nice stay, just a pity we didn't know about the shared kitchen that we could use. We only found out when we left. We arrived there late, went back to Cape Town early and only got back very late. Next time it will definitely be nicer.

Lekker. Ons het lekker gebly, net jammer ons nie geweet het van die gesamentlike kombuis nie wat ons kon gebruik nie. Eers met vertrek het ons uitgevind. Ons het laat daar aangekom, weer vroeg op Kaap toe en eers baie laat terug. Volgende keer sal dit beslis lekkerder wees.

Hi Carol Anne, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I remember clearly that I did send you late self-check-in details and informed you about the communal kitchen, as well as the combination lock PIN text. We apologise if the texts were not well received. We do hope to host you again in the future.

Loved every moment at the campsite, also close to town. Camping was super nice and fun, the swimming pool is amazing. However, we were under the impression there were no electricity points, and when we arrived, the lively lady pointed us to the electricity points. If we had known about this, we would have brought a lead to be able to have power at our tent. Other than that, the stay was very nice and super clean. Would definitely go again.
