Unforgettable weekend at a phantasmagoric destination. Magubela was a fantastic destination. You definitely get the value for your money and it is very beautiful and peaceful, you forget about the world around you. Helper Gilbert is fantastic. He is very friendly and helpful and there when you need him. I would definitely recommend it and would love to go there again in the summer.

Onvergeetlike naweek by 'n fantasmagoriese bestemming. Magubela was 'n fantastiese bestemming. Jy kry beslis die waarde vir jou geld en dit is baie mooi en rustig, mens vergeet van die wereld om jou. Hulphelper Gilbert is fantasties. Hy is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en daar wanneer jy hom nodig het. Ek sal dit beslis aanbeveel en wil graag in die somer weer daarheen gaan.

Very clean and tidy place. Owner and caretaker very helpful. We were welcomed on arrival and shown everything. Gilbert was there regularly to check if everything was ok and often brought wood, refilled the Jacuzzi and made sure we knew how everything worked! Thank you Girbert and Bonganie, we will come again.

Baie skoon en netjiese plek. Eienaar en opsigter baie hulpvaardig. Ons was met aankoms verwelkom en alles gewys. Gilbert was gereeld daar om te hoor of alles in orde was en het gereeld hout aangedra, die Jacuzzi opgevul en gesorg dat ons weet hoe alles werk! Dankie Girbert en Bonganie, ons kom weer.

Nice place with family and friends. It was really so nice to come to the place. To enjoy the tranquility and also the view.

Lekker plek saam familie en vriende. Dit was regtig so lekker om na die plekkie toe te kom. Die rustigheid te geniet en ook die uitsig.

Could be better with some maintenance and minor adjustments. Too expensive for what you get. Jacuzzi couldn't heat at first - luckily we were eventually able to get it to work ourselves, after the worker tried unsuccessfully. Sail by jacuzzi is broken and wind almost blew the pole against my child's head. Small things: Not all the doors can close and the ones that can sometimes struggle. On arrival we had to make up 2 beds ourselves - when you pay that much you expect more when they know exactly how many guests we are. My 4 year old didn't get a chocolate either because his bed wasn't made - luckily someone gave theirs away. Almost no trash cans in the house and the ones that are there are very small. Not wall plugs at dressing tables. Not enough plugs available in the kitchen for just the appliances that are there and because it's such a bunch of things in a small space, it's rather inconvenient. Little to no shelves or tables for bags/clothes to be unpacked - just hangers and hanging space. For the price, one would expect the bins to be emptied at least once a day, that one does not have to ask them to clean the barbecue and bring more wood and even that they only wash dishes and kitchen at least once a day and sweep bar area. Was nice, but not worth the money.

Kan met bietjie onderhoud en klein aanpassings beter wees. Te duur vir wat mens kry. Jacuzzi kon aanvanklik nie warm maak nie - gelukkig kon ons hom eventueel self kry om te werk, nadat die werker onsuksesvol probeer het. Seil by jacuzzi is stukkend en wind het amper die paal teen my kind se kop vasgewaai. Klein goedjies: Nie al die deure kan toe nie en dié wat kan, sukkel soms. Met aankoms moes ons self 2 beddens opmaak - as mens soveel betaal verwag mens meer terwyl hulle presies weet hoeveel gaste ons is. My 4-jarige het ook nie 'n sjokoladetjie gekry nie, omdat sy bedjie nie opgemaak is nie - gelukkig het iemand hulle s'n afgestaan. Amper geen asblikke in huis nie en dié wat daar is is baie klein. Nie muurproppe by spieëltafels nie. Nie genoeg proppe beskikbaar in kombuis vir net die toestelle wat daar is nie en omdat dit so bietjie klomp goed in 'n klein spasie is, is raak dit ongerieflik. Min tot geen rakke of tafels vir tasse/klere om uitgepak te word nie - net hangers en hangplek. Vir die prys sou mens verwag dat die asblikke ten minste net een keer per dag uitgegooi kom word, dat mens nie hoef te vra dat hulle braai kom skoonmaak en meer hout bring nie en selfs dat hulle net minstens een keer per dag skottelgoed was en kombuis en kroegarea vee. Was lekker, maar nie die geld werd nie.

Thank you for your review much appreciated. On that note I would like to add that we are self-catering so we don't do cleaning while there's guest at the house. The two extra beds don't get made, the guests do that themselves according to their sleeping arrangements. Will apply the feedback thanks.

Dankie vir jou resensie word baie waardeer. Op daardie noot wil ek byvoeg dat ons selfsorg is, so ons doen nie skoonmaak terwyl daar gaste by die huis is nie. Die twee ekstra beddens word nie opgemaak nie, die gaste doen dit self volgens hul slaapreëlings. Sal die terugvoer toepas dankie.

Besides the safety issue, which is a major major issue, the place is absolutely lovely with all the facilities such as a boma, pool, bar and jacuzzi. Everything has been thought of and when they say you only need to bring food, they are not wrong! I would only not recommend the stay to a friend due to the total lack of security. The doors need to be able to actually lock and the security gates need to be fixed or replaced. As it stands, we were unable to lock the doors at night and the security gate was broken in such a way that there was a gap in it that a person could fit through. We felt very unsafe and uneasy staying in the middle of nowhere with no security. Completely ruined our stay, and we didn't sleep very soundly.

Thank you for your kind words of praise Nicole. Sincere apologies for your feeling unsafe. Yes we are having a problem with the swollen wooden stacking doors due to the unusual amount of rain experienced during December, January and February this year. It takes some effort to close and lock them properly, but they do all lock. If you had let us know, our very helpful supervisor would have been there in a jiffy to assist you to lock the doors so that you did not have to sleep with unlocked doors. I am so sorry you had to go through that and were so traumatised. Next time, instead of suffering sleepless nights, rather communicate with the staff or the owner of an establishment and they will all bend over backwards to make you feel safe and secure. At the very least to assist you to lock the doors. Some of the struts on the lounge security trellis gate also broke and it is quite difficult to get a repairman, as we are on a farm. But we are on it and it will be repaired soon. It is being repaired as a matter of urgency.

Dankie vir jou mooi woorde van lof Nicole. Opregte verskoning dat jy onveilig voel. Ja, ons het 'n probleem met die opgeswelde houtstapeldeure as gevolg van die ongewone hoeveelheid reën wat gedurende Desember, Januarie en Februarie vanjaar ervaar is. Dit verg 'n bietjie moeite om hulle behoorlik toe te maak en te sluit, maar hulle sluit almal. As jy ons laat weet het, sou ons baie hulpvaardige toesighouer in 'n japtrap daar gewees het om jou te help om die deure te sluit sodat jy nie met oopgeslote deure hoef te slaap nie. Ek is so jammer dat jy dit moes deurmaak en so getraumatiseer was. Volgende keer, in plaas daarvan om slapelose nagte te ly, kommunikeer eerder met die personeel of die eienaar van 'n onderneming en hulle sal almal agteroor buig om jou veilig en geborge te laat voel. Ten minste om jou te help om die deure te sluit. Van die stutte op die sitkamer sekuriteits traliewerk hek het ook gebreek en dit is nogal moeilik om 'n hersteller te kry, aangesien ons op 'n plaas is. Maar ons is op dit en dit sal binnekort herstel word. Dit word dringend herstel.

Great home, great area. Perfect place for a breakaway. Starry Night Farm is the perfect place to have a breakaway. Pool, Jacuzzi, house and everything was sparkling clean and everything worked 100%. Can't wait for our next trip there.

Thank you so much, Nadia. You are always welcome back again. Next time, perhaps, we can offer you a repeat visitor discount so we can increase that "value for money" rating.

Baie dankie, Nadia. Jy is altyd weer welkom terug. Volgende keer, miskien, kan ons jou 'n herhalende besoeker-afslag bied sodat ons daardie "waarde vir geld"-gradering kan verhoog.

Die eienaar was baie gasvry sy het selfs vir my seun 'n verjaarsdaggeskenk gelos met eetgoedjies vir die kinders om te partytjie. Ek beveel Starry Night Farm definitief aan vir 'n heerlike ontspan.
