Bethany Farm

Great value for money. Incredible hosting. Perfect location for relaxation.

Legendary hosting from Jakes. He showed us around thoroughly, explaining everything about his farm and animals. They baked us a bread. They recommended really good locations for coffee and food around the area. It was a peaceful place. Great for relaxation. Great value for money.

What a pleasant stay over.

So enjoyed a peaceful sleep with only cool mountain whispering overhead. Most interesting ideas from ram pumps to plant biology from Jakes. Many thanks to the hosts.

Peaceful.

Perfect, peaceful, quiet.

Fantastic, beautiful and removed from everything for a much-needed getaway.

The farm is situated in a tricky to get to part, but once you get there you are greeted so warmly by the host. The place is absolutely breathtaking and worth the trip. Value for money guaranteed.

Wealth on a shoestring.

Come and experience life on a smallholding owned by people who march to no drum but their own. Everything on this tiny piece of paradise has been planted and built by Jakes and Linda and their seven home-schooled children. Don't expect synthetic grandeur or glitz. In fact, apart from the very comfortable bed and cotton linen, don't expect anything first-world. Rather, expect much, much more in the way of soul food and honest-to-God living. Every detail has been thought of, down to a bouquet of the sweetest-smelling, old-fashioned wild roses and a huge pot of Pride of Madeira. And Linda's unsurpassable home-baked bread.

Great stay.

Attentive, friendly host, beautiful farm, great off the grid experience.

For a getaway from everyday life, it was wonderful.

The room and braai area is wonderful and cosy. The people are fantastic. Truly a place that you should go for off-the-grid relaxing time. If you have any interest in self sufficiency and eco friendly practices it is a must. Very rustic, but that adds to the charm. We will definitely be going there again.

Absolutely soul quenching.

We had a wonderful time at Bethany Farm. Surrounded and embraced with nature and tranquility. Jakkie and Linda is beautiful people, grounded and hearty. Everything was neat and we needed for nothing. We where spoiled with a freshly baked and delightful seed bread. We enjoyed apricot jam and fetta cheese made by our hosts. Bethany Farm are for the individuals that still embraces nature and values tranquility. Jakke and Linda, we wil see you again. It was a privilege.

Sielskos: Stil, afgeleë, natuurskoon area waar mens kan herlaai en nuwe waardering kry vir die rustigheid.

Die akkommodasie was prentjiemooi, binne en buite. Jakes het gretig sy ervaring rondom permakultuur gedeel en ons het klomp wyshede aangeleer wat ons gretig wil gaan toepas. Pronto, die vriendelike hond, het ons harte gesteel. Ons het 'n heerlike warm, tuisgebakte brood gekry met ontvangs en selfs vars melk geniet op versoek. Hoogs aanbeveel!

Peaceful farm cottage.

If you are tired of the city noise and looking for a good place to wind down and read a good book, this is it. You can wake up with the sound of farm animals getting ready for the day. The hosts were super helpful and made us feel at home. I can't wait to go stay there again.

Tranquil and quaint.

For a minimalist this is awesome, inexpensive, quiet place. Keep in mind that it's a farm, so expect rustic old school stuff. The owner is friendly and willing to tell you about the farm.

Eerste indruk was sleg, tog lekker geslaap

Ons het eers verbygery, want die ingang het slordig gelyk en nie asof dit die oornagplek kan wees nie. Die erf waarin die blyplek is lyk slordig, maar die binnekant van die blyplek is baie netjies en aangenaam. Jakes was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Uitstekend -- was die beste van al die B&B's wat ons hierdie vakansie gebruik het.

Uitstekend -- pragtige huis en ligging. Stil en rustig met baie bome.

Peace and rest in the fruit gardens.

The owner is a very nice man who really tries to make you feel comfortable.

Ongelooflik - rustig, salig en sielsverrykend.

Dit is baie rustig op die plaas. Dis die ideale plek as jy werklik wil wegkom van die stad en al sy lawaai. Jy staan verstom deur die skone natuur om jou en veral deur die lewe wat die eienaar en sy gesin daar gebou het. Dis ongelooflik inspirerend en die plekkie het so baie karakter. Dit was presies die wegbreek wat ons nodig gehad het om ons 25ste huweliksherdenking mee te vier.

Not suitable if you like mod cons and are a city slicker.

Very tucked away in stunning surroundings. Not smart - very basic. Wonderful if you like the back to the old days experience. Owner very generous with his permaculture knowledge and willingness to explain it. Peace and quiet to the ultimate degree.

Baie lekker.

Plek is die perfekte plek as jy wil afsonder. Daar is stilte, vriendelikheid en jy is in die natuur. Eienaars is baie gasvry. What you see is what you get. Heerlik! Heerlike konfyt en vye en beskuit is heerlik.
