Sal graag weer besoek!

Lieflike stilte in die natuur. Dek by poel kuier heerlik en die uitsig besonders. Agterstoep (dek) ook lekker teen die middagson.

Would love to visit again!

Lovely silence in nature. Deck by the pool is a great place to visit and the view is exceptional. Back porch (deck) also nice in the afternoon sun.

Asemrowend.

Ons het die ses aande se wegbreek van ons besige lewe baie geniet. Bobbejaankrans is 'n besonderse plek met alles wat jy nodig het om te ontspan. Ons het elke dag wild gesien, kameelperde, springbokke, bontebokke en koedoes. Sien uit om terug te gaan.

Breathtaking.

We really enjoyed the six evening break from our busy lives. Bobbejaankrans is a special place with everything you need to relax. We saw wildlife every day, giraffes, springboks, ibex and kudus. Looking forward to going back.

Views, silence, peace and nature.

The description to find the house must be improved. But being lost was a great game drive! The house itself is beautifully located with far views! The newly built shade area at the pool is amazing! If you fill the pool (you really should) the water is really warm because of the sun, and you can enjoy sunset with a drink in the warm water. We saw all giraffes by a short game drive (OK, that was luck). The Wi-Fi was excellent and the owners always reachable by WhatsApp! All in all, a great stay. Be aware of hidden plastic snakes.

Bobbejaankrans 's response

Thanks for your review! We have improved our info and direction package we send out to guests to make it easier to find. I am so pleased you enjoyed the splash pool, and that you saw lots of animals. Sorry about the plastic snake - it is there to scare the baboons away when the house is unoccupied.

One night stop.

The place was very nice but there were a few negatives: 1. There was no electric kettle so I had to boil water on the stove. 2. There were three matches in the only matchbox I could find, and no other form of firelighter. Luckily I had my own matches! 3. There appeared to be a wireless router but no WiFi password (or details thereof) were provided. 4. Several goons worked on a nearby building site (the house immediately next door, just over the hill) until about 7 pm. The noise of their yelling, banging with a hammer and using an angle grinder destroyed the ambiance at sunset.

Bobbejaankrans 's response

We love our whistle kettle on the gas stove. I am sorry you missed an electric one. Although we have lights and charging facilities, we still try and keep the idea of being on a farm in the Karoo. I am sorry you did not read the instructions we sent, where the Wi-Fi password was shown. Also apologies for the neighbours doing work on their house, this is beyond my control.

Ons het heerlik gekuier in die gerieflike en goed toegeruste huis.

Die huis is baie gerieflik en goed toegerus en die ligging onverbeterlik. Die stoepareas voor en agter die huis verseker gerieflike kuierplek op verskillende tye van die dag. Die kinders kon alleen met hulle fietse in die reservaat ry en het die plonspoel terdeë geniet. Ons het ver gestap en het 'n verskeidenheid wilde diere in die reservaat gesien, wat onder andere kameelperde, zebras, elande, kudus, wildebeeste en volstruise insluit.

We had a wonderful time in the comfortable and well-equipped house.

The house is very comfortable and well equipped and the location unbeatable. The porch areas in front and behind the house ensure a comfortable place to visit at different times of the day. The children could ride their bikes alone in the reserve and thoroughly enjoyed the splash pool. We walked far and saw a variety of wild animals in the reserve, including giraffes, zebras, moose, kudus, wildebeest and ostriches.

Rustig. Gesinstyd. Natuurskoon.

Heerlike naweek, rustige naweek, ons het die natuur en stilte baie geniet. Noem dalk net 'n toekoms vir gaste dat 'n kar nie ideaal is vir die pad na Bobbejaankrans nie.

Restful. Family time. Scenic.

Lovely weekend, peaceful weekend, we really enjoyed the nature and silence. Maybe just mention a future to guests that a car is not ideal for the road to Bobbejaankrans.

Rustige Karoo-wegbreek

Ons het die verblyf baie geniet. Die huis was goed toegerus met als wat mens nodig het. Ons het elke aand by die braaivuurtjie gesit en uitkyk oor die vlakte. Ons sal graag weer wil besoek.

Peaceful Karoo getaway

We enjoyed the stay very much. The house was well equipped with everything you need. Every evening we sat by the barbecue and looked out over the plain. We would love to visit again.

A quiet, clean cottage set in a beautiful location on the reserve. Beautiful stars at night. Lovely general game viewing and just a stunning place to relax and unwind.

Beautiful environment. Place was not clean. No hot water. No proper directions or instructions on anything.

I would expect a lot more for the price we paid. Not happy at all and would not recommend this specific property to anyone.
