Perfect for a family or friends. Just what the heart needs to breathe a little. The place was special. We are already planning our next trip to the unit.

Perfek vir 'n gesin of vriende. Net wat die hart nodig het om so bietjie asem te haal. Die plek was besonders. Ons beplan al klaar ons volgende uitstappie na die eenheid.

Wonderful among all the wild animals. The stay was very pleasant, there was only a delay with a QR code for the main gate and access code for the gate at the unit.

Heerlik tussen al die wilde diere. Verblyf was baie aangenaam, daar was net 'n oponthoud met 'n QR-kode vir die hoofhek en toegangs kode vir die hek by die eenheid.

Wonderful, enjoyed the animals that came to visit, goats, birds, warthogs. Very nice unit, everything you need. Plus point that the unit is cleaned daily. Will definitely use it again.

Wonderlike, het diere geniet wat kom kuier het, bokke, voëls, vlakvarke. Baie mooi eenheid, alles wat nodige is. Plus punt dat eenheid daagliks skoon gemaak word. Sal dit verseker weer gebruik.

Happy with accommodation. The host/hostess was very accommodating. Communicated with us as needed. Very satisfied.

Gelukkig met akkommodasie. Die gasheer/gasvrou was baie akkommoderend. Het met ons gekommunikeer soos nodig. Baie tevrede.

Fantastic. It was a wonderful long weekend. A tap did leak in the master bedroom bathroom. The fridge and freezers were big enough for once. Will definitely book there again.

Fantasties. Dit was 'n wonderlike lang naweek. 'n Kraan het wel gelek in die hoofslaapkamer se badkamer. Die yskas en vrieskaste was vir eens groot genoeg. Sal beslis weer daar bespreek.

Feel at home. Feels like our 2nd home! Very neat and peaceful atmosphere! Can't wait to visit again.

Voel tuis. Voel soos ons 2de tuiste! Baie netjies en rustige atmosfeer! Kan nie wag om weer te kom kuier nie.

Could have been better if everything was in place and had a more homely atmosphere. I will go again, but would like to point out a few things: 1. Room doors should have handles on both sides, not sliding locks - fire regulations. 2. The structure is good, but could definitely be brightened up with some nice pictures on the walls. 3. Maintenance of taps in the house is poor, almost all of them leak. New seals will fix this. 4. Braai area at boma's grills and braai tools are in poor condition, or not there at all. 5. Lounge sofas and chairs are scarce; six people cannot sit there and cheer. 6. No WiFi. TV decoder hanging by its wires (sloppy appearance). 7. Kitchen is barely equipped. Only one wine glass and few cutlery. 8. Stove lights do not work. Replace light bulbs. 9. Pillows on bed are cheap and give no support. Replace pillows. 10. No two-prong wall plugs to charge cellphones. 11. One foot of the microwave is missing and wobbly. Also makes noise when used. 12. Refrigerator is a bit small when six people visit. Refrigerator can be defrosted (thick ice has accumulated). 13. Bedroom door on the west (wooden doors) has no key, so cannot be opened. 14. Key safe on the porch cannot be locked. 15. One handle of the sliding door needs attention, comes loose when used. 16. Could not watch TV; something is wrong with the remote control. 17. Roller blind in the upper room could not be used; mechanism does not work. 18. Kitchen photo does not represent what is actually there; only three bar stools and only one small refrigerator. 19. Living room sofa in photo is not there; only two steel chairs with ostrich covers.

Kon beter gewees het as alles in plek was en meer huislike atmosfeer gehad het. Ek sal weer gaan, maar wil graag 'n paar goed uitwys: 1. Kamerdeure moet handvatsels aan beide kante hê, nie skuifslotte nie - brandregulasies. 2. Die struktuur is goed, maar kan beslis opgevrolik word met 'n paar mooi prente teen die mure. 3. Instandhouding van krane in die huis is swak, omtrent almal lek. Nuwe seels sal dit regmaak. 4. Braai-area by boma se roosters en braai-gereedskap is in swak toestand, of glad nie daar nie. 5. Sitkamer se banke en stoele is skaars; ses mense kan nie daar sit en juier nie. 6. Geen WiFi nie. TV-dekodeerder hang aan sy drade (slordige voorkoms). 7. Kombuis is skaars uitgerus. Slegs een wynglas en min eetgerei. 8. Stoepligte werk nie. Vervang gloeilampe. 9. Kussings op bed is goedkoop en gee geen ondersteuning. Vervang kussings. 10. Geen twee-punt muurproppe om selfone te laai nie. 11. Mikrogolf se een voetjie is weg en wankel. Maak ook geraas wanneer dit gebruik word. 12. Yskas is bietjie klein wanneer ses mense kuier. Yskas kan ontvries word (dik ys aangepak). 13. Slaapkamer deur aan weste (houtdeure) het geen sleutel nie, kan dus nie oopgemaak word nie. 14. Sleutelkluis op die stoep kan nie sluit nie. 15. Skuifdeur se een handvatsel het aandag nodig, kom los wanneer dit gebruik word. 16. Kon nie TV kyk nie; iets is fout met die afstandbeheerder. 17. Oprolgordyn in boonste kamer kon nie gebruik word nie; meganisme werk nie. 18. Kombuis se foto verteenwoordig nie wat werklik daar is nie; net drie bar stools en net een klein yskas. 19. Sitkamer bank op foto is nie daar nie; net twee staalstoele met volstruis oortreksel.

Lovely winter stay. Great relaxing stay with plenty for the family and kids to do. Well stocked shop, restaurant was fantastic. Accommodation was clean and everything was ready for us on arrival. A well stocked kitchen for self-catering and a lovely braai area. Animals came to the unit, lots of warthog, buck and monkeys.

Comfortable stay in a good location. The house is spacious and comfortable. We loved the full baths and en-suite bathrooms. The location was also great, close to the shops and swimming pools while also being quiet and 'in the bush'. The phone signal is very poor in the area, which encouraged us to put our phones down and just enjoy the weekend.
