Fabulous site. Very quiet and safe.

Stay was quiet and safe. Unfortunately there was no hot water. For the amount you have to pay, I would expect hot water for a shower. All in all, rates are a bit steep.

Relaxing and peaceful.

Very peaceful and tranquil. Our hosts were respectful of our privacy and were very friendly. We enjoyed walking around the farm and exploring nearby McGregor. The cottage was clean and we were spared the effects of load shedding!

Great time in nature.

We went camping on New Year's Eve, and we were the only ones at the camp site. Although the campsite is open (no fence around), we felt safe. There were no incidents. The campsite is 1km away from the town of McGregor. The owner was kind and accommodating.

Stil, rustig en eenvoudig.

Die perfekte plekkie om tot stilstand te kom. Niks fieterjasies nie. Die eenvoud dwing jou om weer die basiese te ontdek en net te rus en die stilte rondom jou te geniet. Lekker om te stap of fiets te ry en naby genoeg om in die dorpie te gaan verken. Hier besef jy hoe min jy regtig nodig het en hoe verfrissend is dit nou nie!

Quiet, peaceful and simple.

The perfect place to stop. Nothing frills. The simplicity forces you to rediscover the basics and just rest and enjoy the silence around you. Nice for walking or cycling and close enough to explore the village. Here you realize how little you really need and how refreshing it is!

Rustic and basic.

For only R300 per person, and R550 for two, I wasn't sure what to expect, and I was pleasantly surprised. This tiny converted labourers' cottage really does have everything you would need for a short stay. The shower was hot, the bed was comfortable, and the tiny kitchen-cum-living area was adequately stocked. There is a green shady, spacious outside area, a lovely view and hillside walks. There are no 'extras', like Wi-Fi or TV, which suited me fine, but I noticed that there is an electric blanket and the linen is good. And in winter you could light a fire on the old cooking hearth. The peace and quiet are exceptional. I will be back.

Werklik 'n Uitvlucht weg van die gejaag van die stad.

Rustigheid, vrede, vriendelike mense, mooi landskap, romanties is maar paar woordjies wat hierdie plekkie beskryf. Tydjie was heerlik om die jaar op so 'n wonderlike plekkie te kon afsluit. Kon heerlik reflekteer op die wonderlike jaar agter ons, ons verhouding met God en met mekaar. Ongelooflik om saans laatnag op na die sterre te kyk en weer diep in my geliefde vroutjie se oë te kom kyk om nog so paar sterretjies te ontdek. Sal verseker weer hier kom asemhaal op die beeldskone plek saam met die mooiste mensie in die heelal.

Truly an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Tranquility, peace, friendly people, beautiful landscape, romantic are just a few words that describe this place. Tydje was wonderful to be able to end the year in such a wonderful place. Was able to reflect wonderfully on the wonderful year behind us, our relationship with God and with each other. Unbelievable to look up at the stars late at night and look deep into my beloved wife's eyes again to discover a few more little stars. Will definitely come here again to breathe in the beautiful place with the most beautiful person in the universe.

Ontspan, stap en visvang.

Ek en my man en 3 maande oue baba het by Uitvlugt gaan kuier. Die plekkie is klein en perfek ingerig om 'n naweek te geniet. Die eenvoud is wat die plek maak. Dit dwing jou om niks ingewikkeld te doen nie en te rus. Ons het lekker op die plaas rondgestap en teen die koppie opgeklim. My man het baie lekker visgevang. Die diere op die plaas is baie oulik en daar is 'n groot verskeidenheid. Ons het in die aande lekker vuur gemaak en gekuier.

Relax, hike and fish.

My husband and I and 3-month-old baby visited Uitvlugt. The place is small and perfectly set up to enjoy a weekend. The simplicity is what makes the place. It forces you to do nothing complicated and rest. We had a nice walk around the farm and climbed up the hill. My husband had a great time fishing. The animals on the farm are very cute and there is a great variety. In the evenings we made a nice fire and hung out.

Ek moet net weer dankie sê vir Frans en Gretha, julle het ons sommer baie welkom laat voel! Dankie vir 'n ekstra hand toe ons dit nodig gehad het! Die omgewing is so fantasties mooi. Die dam en bootjies bied heerlike ontspanning. Lieflike paadjies om te stap, fietsry of draf! Die huisie het als wat nodig is. Ons het almal baie lekker gebly.

Absoluut fantastiese ervaring.

2018 was die jaar wat ons besluit het om vir die eerste keer te gaan kamp, en Uitvlugt Camp and Cottage het hierdie belewenis die moeite werd te maak. Die eienaars was so nederig en vriendelik, ons het sommer tuis gevoel. Die kamp-area was netjies, toilette en braai-area ingesluit, voorraad hout altyd beskikbaar. Ek sal definitief Uitvlugt Camp and Cottage aanbeveel, want dis presies wat 'n mens nodig het na 'n jaar se gewoel: rustigheid, vreedsaamheid en wakker skrik met die voëls. Absoluut fantasties. Dankie julle!

The camping area was tidy, toilets and braai area included, stock of wood always available. I would definitely recommend Uitvlugt Camp and Cottage, because it's exactly what one needs after a year of hustle and bustle: tranquility, peacefulness and a wake-up call with the birds. Absolutely fantastic. Thank you guys!

Very basic accommodation.

We were a little shocked at the accommodation when we arrived. It consisted of a renovated farm labourers cottage. Very basic. Nothing like the website. It is a step back in time and needs a little upgrading. However it grew on us. Although basic it had all you needed. I found that you needed to wash cups, plates and glasses before use. It was very quiet and peaceful. The main issue was mosquito's. Hundreds of them. Please advise future clients to take some mosquito protection.

Pragtig netjiese plekkie.

Uitvlugt is regtig 'n juweel wat weggesteek is. Pragtige huisies so netjies en skoon. Ons het saam vriende daar gaan bly vir die naweek. Alles baie gerieflik en rustig. Ons het in kleiner huisie gebly, net reg vir my en my man, en ons vriende met 7 maande oue baba het in die groter huisie gebly, perfek uitgewerk met hulle eie camping cot in. Die stort se kop spuit wel bietjie in alle rigtings en maak dat die badkamer bietjie nat word. Daar is verder, van alles, jy hoef niks saam te neem nie behalwe jou eie kos. Die eienaar was baie vriendelik en ons opgeneem na die huisies toe, en het extra hout ook beskikbaar gehad vir ons. Dis pure plaas, en die plaasdiere was te oulik om te gaan bekyk en ons het die hele plaas plat geloop. Ons voel hulle moet hulle foto's van Uitvlug bietjie opkikker, want daar is soveel meer om te sien as net daai paar foto's en dalk hulle bekentenis maak op Facebook, waar gaste ook foto's kan oplaai van hulle lekker kuiers op Uitvlugt. Baie potensiaal en vreeslik lekker plekkie, teen baie bekostigbare prys.

Beautiful neat place.

Uitvlugt is really a gem hidden away. Beautiful houses so neat and clean. We stayed together with friends for the weekend. Everything very convenient and quiet. We stayed in a smaller house just right for me and my husband and our friends with a 7 month old baby stayed in the bigger house, worked out perfectly with their own camping cot. The shower's head sprays a little in all directions and makes the bathroom wet. You do not have to take anything but your own food. The owner was very friendly and escorted us to the cottages, and had extra wood available for us too. It was a pure farm, and the farm animals were so nice to go see and we walked all over the whole farm. We feel they need to update their photos of Uitvlugt, because there's so much more to see than just those pictures and maybe make their confession on Facebook, where guests can also upload photos of their nice visits to Uitvlugt. A lot of potential and very nice place, at a very affordable price.

Gemaklik en goed ingerig.

Ons wou kamp maar was gelukkig om deur ons gasvrou gehelp te word met 'n huisie omdat dit bitterlik koud en nat was. Geen moeite was te veel nie. Baie dankie.

Comfortable and well appointed.

We wanted to camp but were lucky to be helped by our hostess with a little house because it was bitterly cold and wet. No effort was too much. Thank you very much.

Great campsite and location.

Really enjoyed our stay. Lapa with braai was so useful since we had a we rainy days. Hot water donkie worked great. No problems with hot water. Would just liked to have had hot water in lapa as well for washing dishes.

Beautiful and rustic. A bird-lovers' paradise.

Stunning scenery, beautiful to be right on the dam and our children loved spotting all the bird life. The hot water showers were a treat in such a rustic setting. We felt a bit unsafe, as there was no controlled access to the farm, although we did see the farmer on one of the days we were there. I think it would have been better had there been more campers. There were just two families when we were there.

A relaxing and beautiful environment.

Uitvlugt provides a nice break from everyday to enjoy nature while still providing guests with hot showers. An enjoyable stay, perfect for a family or group of friends.

Ons kon heerlik ontspan en natuurskoon geniet.

Ons het baie lekker gerus by Uitvlugt. Ons seun en kleinkind het ure in die bootjie op die dam spandeer in 'n onsuksesvolle poging om 'n vissie te vang, maar hulle het pret gehad. Ons sal graag weer daar gaan rus.

We were able to relax and enjoy the scenery.

We had a great time at Uitvlugt. Our son and grandson spent hours in the boat on the pond in an unsuccessful attempt to catch a fish, but they had fun. We would love to rest there again.

Peaceful escape from the city.

Had a great stay. The weather wasn't the best but made the camping more exciting. A nice hot shower on the morning did the trick. Thank you to the maintenance guy who heated our water each morning and for assisting us.

Gekamp met klein kind.

Ek en my man het gekamp met ons 1 jarige dogter. Die staanplekke is baie na an mekaar en nie baie groot nie. Ek voel die ablusiegeriewe is te min as die kampplek vol is vir al die mense wat daar kamp. Die beligting is ook baie min.

Camped with small child.

My husband and I went camping with our 1 year old daughter. The pitches are very close to each other and not very large. I feel the ablution facilities are too few if the campsite is full for all the people camping there. The lighting is also very little.

Heerlik gebly en sal beslis weer van Uitvlugt Cottage gebruik maak. Natuur en stilte is kos vir die siel.

Die huisie het alles wat mens benodig vir 'n vinnige wegbreek. Net 'n paar items wat ek onder die bestuur se aandag wil bring is dat die yskas nie heeltemal seel nie en miskien binnekort oorweeg om die matrasse van die beddens te vervang. Maar oor die algemeen was ons gelukkig. Baie dankie.

Lovely stay and wil definitely book Uitvlugt Cottage again. Nature and quiet, food for the soul.

This little house has everything you need for a quick getaway. Just a few items I want to bring under the attention of management: fridge doesn't seal properly and maybe consider replacing the the mattresses. But in general we were very happy. Thank you so much.

Teleurstellende buitehuisie.

Die ‘romantiese kothuis’ was op die einde ‘n effens opgedateerde werkers eenheid. Die meubelstukke was oud en afgeleef en die deurkosyne is so laag - nie ek of my man kon regop loop nie. Ons het die laaste paar weke in ‘n groot hoeveelheid uiteenlopende plekke oornag en Uitvlugt het by verre die slegste waarde vir geld geoffer.

Disappointing cottage.

The 'romantic cottage' ended up being a slightly updated workers' unit. The furniture was old and shabby and the door frames are so low - neither my husband nor I could walk upright. We have spent the last few weeks in a large number of different places and Uitvlugt offered by far the worst value for money.

Baie teleurstellend en hopeloos te duur vir so 'n afgeleefde, swak ingerigte en onpraktiese eenheid.

Die korrespondensie met die eienaar was baie swak en die eenheid is teleurstellend met die wind wat deur die stukkende voordeur suis. Die geriewe is baie swak, met karige, ou meubels en geskeurde stoelkussings. 'n Plaaswerkers-kaia waarmee geen moeite gedoen is om betalende gaste 'n gerieflike oornagplek te bied nie. Die skottelgoed was nie eens behoorlik gewas nie.

Very disappointing and way too expensive for such a worn out, badly appointed and unpractical unit.

The correspondence with the owner was very bad and the unit is disappointing with the wind howling through the broken front door. The facilities are very bad with scanty, old furniture and torn chair cushions. A farm worker's house where no effort was made to create convenient overnight accommodation. The dishes weren't even washed properly.

Very basic, but if you prefer simplicity and aren't full of frills, it's pocket friendly.

Persons from privileged groups should go home here and experience how many farm workers lived with their families. They also have to imagine what it would be like without the current electricity, running water, shower and indoor flushing toilet and with four or more children. Feel free to go for the cultural experience and look back in history. Then think how much worse a squatter's shack must be.

City get away in the middle of nowhere.

First thing my son said coming out of the toilets at the camp site was: Mommy it's so clean! I was impressed with all the lighting at the campsite, even my 5 year old was willing to go alone to the loo at night. Ample undercover space in the braai area. During a thunderstorm they sent someone out to come check if everything was okay. So awesome to boil hot water on a fire that warms up the showers and it stayed hot whole morning. Will visit again, hopefully with more people.
