Wonderlike stilte.

Die omgewing en wooneenheid is ongelooflik mooi. Die boerbokke geniet die plaasomgewing baie, wat stil en rustig is. Dankie vir jou gasvryheid.

Wonderful silence.

The surroundings and housing unit are incredibly beautiful. The boer goats really enjoy the farm environment, which is quiet and peaceful. Thank you for your hospitality.

A surprisingly lovely place to stay.

An amazing farm feel. Goats, geese, beautiful cats, ducks and an ostrich. Large fields of grass with a stream and many trees. Really beautiful. Our accommodation was so comfortable and warm. Our host left many treats for us. Very hospitable and friendly. Thank you.

Familie saamtrek.

Ja, lugversorging en swembad was 'n seën. Ek adviseer dalk net om eie drinkwater te bring en vir seker 'n beurtkrag rooster. 'n Elektriese punt by die tafel sal help vir die rekenaar.

Yes, air conditioning and pool were a blessing. I might only advise to bring your own drinking water and for sure a load shedding grill. An electrical point by the table will help for the computer.

Voeding vir die siel.

African Olive Country Estate is so rustig. Daar is plaasdiere net aan die ander kant van die stroompie. Die wind waai deur die bome en mens kan nie anders as om net rustig te ontspan nie. Die plekkie is pragtig binne en buite. Die staff is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Deon was baie tegemoetkomend om ons vroeër in te boek. Ek sal die plekkie beslis weer besoek en aanbeveel vir enige iemand wat net bietjie wil wegkom van die geraas van elke dag lewe.

Nourishment for the soul.

African Olive Country Estate is so peaceful. There are farm animals just on the other side of the stream. The wind blows through the trees and you can't help but relax. The place is beautiful inside and out. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Deon was very accommodating to book us in earlier. I will definitely visit the place again and recommend it to anyone who just wants to get away from the noise of everyday life.

Uitstekende, skoon en unieke plaas verblyf.

Deon is 'n waardige gasheer wat sorg dat sy besoekers net die beste kry. Hierdie rustige afpakplek vir 'n naweek van rus uit die stedelike gejaag is 'n ideale plek om net laat te slaap, te rus, lees, die plaas te verken ens. Sal beslis weer daarheen gaan, 'n unieke rustige plek.

Dit was die lekkerste plek in Parys waar ons al was.

Rustig en die gasvryheid was nog beter. Die oomblik wat ons daar gestop het was ons met vriendelikheid behandel. Ons het so tuis gevoel. Alles was netjies en mooi skoon. Was lekker rustig en die diere daar is die mooiste en oulikste uitsig. Sal vir seker plek aanbeveel vir enige iemand. Alles was perfek.

Wat n juweel om te kon ontdek.

Die naweekwas vir ons super spesiaal, om daar te kon gaan rus. Die "plaas" atmosfeer, die groot vol vloeiende grondwaterkanaal voor die huise verby, die heerlike koelte-bome, plaas-diere, bokke, skape, beeste, hoenders, patryse, voltruis en nog meer, maak dit net n heerlike uitkoms uit die stad. En natuurlik die verwelkoming van die swart en wit plaas kat, tuisgemaak op die bed, "die plek is eintlik myne, maar julle kan maar lekker hier kuier". Dekor, uitleg en fynste detail, maak dat ons vir seker hierdie 'n gereelde uitrus-uitstappie gaan maak.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

What a gem to discover.

The weekend was super special for us, to be able to rest there. The "farm" atmosphere, the large full-flowing groundwater canal in front of the houses, the lovely cool trees, farm animals, goats, sheep, cattle, chickens, partridges, voles and more, make it just a wonderful escape from the city . And of course the welcome of the black and white farm cat, made at home on the bed, "the place is actually mine, but you can have fun here". Decor, layout and finest detail, make this a regular rest trip for sure.

'n Ware rustige wegbreekplaas weg van die stadsgeraas.

Die verblyf was werklik rustig en die uitsig laat jou smag na jou eie plaashuisie iewers op 'n stille dorpie. Uit die dorp se geraas, maar naby genoeg om by talle eetplekkies uit te ry. Die huisies is ten volle toegerus en die interne dekor pas eg in by Parys se kultuur. Deon en span weet hoe om mens tuis te laat voel en sorg mooi vir jou met die klein ekstra detail en bederfies wat altyd op die kas lê en wag om aan te smul.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

A true peaceful getaway from the city noise.

The accommodation was truly peaceful and the view allows you to yearn for your own farmhouse somewhere in a quiet village. Out of the noise of the town, but close enough to drive to numerous eateries. The cottages are fully equipped and the interior decor really fits in with the culture of Paris. Deon and team know how to make one feel at home and take good care of you with the little extra details and spoilers that are always waiting for you to go.

Dit is duidelik dat die eienaars van die gastehuis die gerief van hulle gaste voorop stel. Die plek was pragtig maar prakties ingerig, die linne van uitstaande gehalte. Die gashere het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel. Beslis aan te beveel.
