Fantastic and would highly recommend to others.

Sandra was very welcoming and friendly. We stayed in the rondavel, which was lovely and had everything we needed, including a fire to warm the room when we arrived.

A gem of a find suitably distanced between Graaf Reinet and Pietermaritzburg.

Beautiful rondawel, loved the fireplace. Milk and coffee provided. The heartiest scrumptious "regte boerekos" dinner! Wonderful sunset walk around the farm and enjoyed the company of the friendly farm dogs. Very comfortable bed.

Ideale plek om te ontspan na 'n lang reis.

Na 'n hele dag op die pad was die plek met die pragtige tuine en stilte 'n lafenis. Heerlik gebraai en die mooi sterrehemel geniet. Sal definitief weer daar stop. Die roete vanaf die Tuinroete na KZN via die plek is aan te beveel.

After a whole day on the road, the place with its beautiful gardens and silence was a relief. Deliciously grilled and enjoying the beautiful starry sky. Will definitely stop there again. The route from the Garden Route to KZN via the place is recommended.

What a lovely spot.

What a beautiful place to overnight. We were welcomed by host Megan and taken to our Rondewal we had booked for the night. The photos don't do it justice, very tastefully decorated and has everything you need. We had braaied that evening using the communal braai area, which is just what you need and very clean. The next morning we went for a lovely stroll on the farm joined by your dog and the Labrador who lives on the farm, they had a great time running around and swimming. Overall we loved our stay and would definitely stop over at Tortoni again!

Heavy rain. Car park a distance from the unit.

Roads are all passable. Major road works on the main Ugie/Maclear road.

Tortoni Guest Farm & Caravan Park 's response

Thank you so much for staying with us Mike, we enjoyed having you. Yes the rain was and still is truly something, but also completely out of our control. With regards to the cottages being a distance from the carport, we have just measured and the furthest cottage is 56m from the carport. Unfortunately previously guests parked on the lawn near the cottages and their vehicles got stuck, in order to avoid this, we created a gravel carport.

'n Pragtige plekkie, ons sal vir seker weer daar bespreek. Mense is vriendelik, hulle maak dit so gemaklik en gerieflik as moontlik.

Vandat ons aangekom het, was ons vriendelik verwelkom. Heerlike kaggelvuur, warm kombers, heerlike ete, en gerieflike kamer. Baie lekker gebly. Was Wi-Fi maar a.g.v. ligging nie baie goed nie. Ons was wel bewus daarvan so het ons nie gepla nie. Ons sal vir seker weer daar bly.
