Awesome awesome ons is weer gerecharge.

Waar begin ek. Pragtige oudtydse sjarme. Uiters rustig. Oulike gasvrou. Diere om jou is uniek. Emu! En om wakker te word met hane kraai was nogals lekker. Kan dit regtig aanbeveel.

Baie dankie vir alles.

Ons tydjie by Amper Plaas Cottage was kort aangesien ons net oornag het, maar ek sal weer van die kothuis gebruik maak en volgende keer langer bly.

"Amper Plaas" - die naam se dit als.

Defnitief 'n moet! Jy word wakker met die stilte en hoenders wat kraai. Die plekkie is baie plaas en was definitief 'n unieke ervaring. Dit voel soos jou huis weg van die huis, die huisie is baie mooi toegerus en mens voel dadelik tuis. Ek sal dit vir almal aanbeveel en boonop is die eienaars baie vriendlik. Die sonopkoms oor die berge wat definitief 'n bonus.

"Almost Farm" - the name says it all.

Definitely a must! You wake up to the silence and chickens crowing. The place is very farm and was definitely a unique experience. It feels like your home away from home, the cottage is very nicely equipped and you immediately feel at home. I would recommend it to everyone and on top of that the owners are very friendly. The sunrise over the mountains is definitely a bonus.

Rustig man rustig.

Die kuier op Amper Plaas was baie aangenaam. Die omgewing is wat ons verwag het omring deur neut bome en die natuur. Vry lopende plaas diere en die rustigheid is wat ons wou he. ons klein kinders het dit ook baie geniet. Geen kragonderbrekings en sommer net plaaslekker.

Rustig en verfrissend.

Ons was baie vriendelik verwelkom en het dadelik tuis gevoel! Die woonstel was baie ruim en so mooi versier met windpomp en "oudhede" tema - baie sjarme! En dan natuurlik het die boerbokkies, ganse en hoenders die kinders se harte bekoor en was dit vir hulle 'n wonderlike ervaring om hulle te kon vryf en voer - en die groot grasperk voor die eenheid het vir lekker speelplek gesorg! Die eenheid was netjies en skoon - die beddens het soos 'n droom geslaap en die fyn laventeltakkies in die badkamer en om die pakkie beskuit was so sjarmant en die Salted Caramel bederfie op die bed was heerlik! Ons het Sondagoggend wakker geword met 'n bloedrooi sonopkoms wat mooi blink op die dammetjie voor die eenheid - 'n baie rustige en verfrissend atmosfeer! Ons was regtig baie beïndruk en tevrede met ons verblyf en sal hulle definitief aan enige iemand aanbeveel! Weereens baie baie dankie!

Calm and refreshing.

We were welcomed very kindly and immediately felt at home! The apartment was very spacious and so nicely decorated with windmill and "antiques" theme - lots of charm! And then of course the goats, geese and chickens captivated the children's hearts and it was a wonderful experience for them to be able to rub and feed them - and the large lawn in front of the unit made for a nice place to play! The unit was neat and clean - the beds slept like a dream and the fine lavender sprigs in the bathroom and around the packet of biscuits were so charming and the Salted Caramel treat on the bed was delicious! We woke up on Sunday morning to a crimson sunrise that glistened beautifully on the pond in front of the unit - a very peaceful and refreshing atmosphere! We were really very impressed and satisfied with our stay and would definitely recommend them to anyone! Thank you very much again!

Nie te luuks, maar werklik heerlik om te gaan rus.

Die ontvangs van Marnell laat jou werklik dadelik tuis voel. Sy en haar hele huisgesin was sommer gou deel van ons toe ons toenadering gesoek het. Ons het heerlik gerus en die plaas se stilte geniet. Ons gaste was ook baie welkom om ons te besoek.

Not too luxurious, but really lovely to rest.

Arrive during daylight hours.

There are security gates and dirt roads with multiple turn offs to adjoining farms so be sure to arrive during daylight if it's your first visit. We were assisted to navigate by calling the owner who talked us through to the cottage. Additionally fly/mosquito screens would have greatly enhanced our stay as White River is a very hot area with safe ventilation a definite requirement. With all windows and doors closed, nights were hot even in April/May.

Dit was baie rustig gewees!

Ons was net vir een aand daar, maar sal weer teruggaan. Amper Plaas Cottage is "off the beaten track" en was baie rustig en stil gewees - die perfekte plek vir 'n wegbreek! Dit kothuis was baie netjies en skoon, met 'n ou plaashuis atmosfeer. En die uitsig is asemrowend. Die eienaars is baie vriendelik en het ons soos ou vriende verwelkom. Hulle gaan uit hulle pad uit om 'n mens gemaklik te laat voel. Ek sou Amper Plaas Cottage definitief aanbeveel.

We were only there for one night but will go back again. Amper Plaas Cottage is "off the beaten track" and was very peaceful and quiet - the perfect place for a getaway! This cottage was very neat and clean, with an old farmhouse atmosphere. And the view is breathtaking. The owners are very friendly and welcomed us like old friends. They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend Amper Plaas Cottage.

Ons het die plek slegs vir slaapdoeleindes gebruik aangesien ons uit die aard van ons besoek op ander plekke geëet, gekuier en gereis het.

Amper Plaas Cottage is presies wat dit is. Baie baiese geriewe, skoon en netjies. Geleë tussen boorde en stalle op 'n plaas. Baie rustig en redelik veilig. Ons is gasvry ontvang met die lekkerste fudge. Sal dit aanbeveel vir iemand wat met basiese geriewe tevrede is en nie luukshede verwag nie. Dankie, ons het lekker geslaap en dit was voldoende vir ons behoeftes.

We only used the place for sleeping purposes as we were eating, visiting and traveling in other places due to the nature of our visit.

Almost Farm Cottage is exactly what it is. Lots of amenities, clean and tidy. Located between orchards and stables on a farm. Very peaceful and quite safe. We were hospitably received with the most delicious fudge. Would recommend for someone who is happy with basic amenities and doesn't expect luxuries. Thank you, we slept well and it was sufficient for our needs.

Rus en vrede.

Heerlik om egte plaasstilte te ervaar, en wakker te word met kapokhaantjie se kordate kraai. Boerbok te sien wat op sy agterpote staan om lekker groen blaartjies by te kom. Ver weg van gewoel en werskaf van dorpe of stede.

Wonderful to experience real farm silence, and to wake up with a cockerel's cordate crow. Seeing Boerbok standing on its hind legs to reach for nice green leaves. Far away from the hustle and bustle of towns or cities.

Rustig, vriendelik en gemaklik.

Amper Plaas is presies wat sy naam sê...jy is op die plaas met al sy natuurskoon en rustigheid. Jy moet 'n klein stukkie grondpad trotseer om daar te kom, maar as die pad geteer was, was dit mos nie plaas nie. Die akkommodasie is skoon en gerieflik. Dit is die tipe plek waar jy kan ontspan en net rus, maar ook so sentraal geleë dat jy die hele Laeveld kan platry. Die gasheer en gasvrou is bereikbaar en baie behulpsaam, sonder om inbreek te maak op privaatheid. Dis beslis die plek waar ek weer gaan bly as ek weer Laeveld toe gaan. O, ja, definitief waarde vir geld.

Quiet, friendly and comfortable.

Almost Farm is exactly what its name says...you are on the farm with all its natural beauty and tranquility. You have to brave a small piece of dirt road to get there, but if the road was tarred, it wasn't a farm. The accommodation is clean and comfortable. This is the type of place where you can relax and just rest, but also so centrally located that you can ride the entire Lowveld. The host and hostess are approachable and very helpful, without intruding on privacy. It's definitely the place where I will stay again if I go to Lowveld again. Oh yes, definitely value for money.

Fantastiese mense. Piekniekmandjie en brekfis heerlik.

Ons was baie vriendelik ontvang. Hulle het vir ons 'n heerlike piekniekmandjie gepak vir Saterdag. Die Saterdagmiddag het hulle saam met ons gestap. Toe dit lyk na reën het hulle hul bakkie uitgetrek sodat ek my kar onder dak kon trek. Sondagoggend het hulle 'n heerlike ontbyt voorgesit. As ons weer daar moet oorslaap sal ons weer daar wil bly.

Lovely, clean and simple accommodation in a rural setting.
