Reset away.
The place is where you just go to reset. So really away from everything and everyone. Take only enough clean water with you to drink.

Peaceful farm visit - perfect for families.
We were 2 families with 4 boys who stayed in the renovated cellar. The dirt road to the cottages is quite corrugated, but is completely accessible for a regular sedan vehicle. Cell phone signal is not great and there is no WiFi. The cottages are 2km from the tasting room, where there is WiFi. You have to drive there again on the dirt road. Although we were not at the venue, it does look nice from the outside, with swings for the children. The house has since been changed - a wall next to the porch has been added with a hot tub. It uses quite a bit of wood to keep warm. (We used 2 bags of wood for the 3 days). 1 bag of wood is provided, otherwise you can buy from the farm. There are 2 en-suite bathrooms, as well as 2 more full bathrooms and a separate toilet next to the kitchen (5 toilets in total). The kitchen is excellently equipped, with extra dish towels in the drawers. The only things we would have appreciated extra were a fly swatter, bucket and floor cloth and dish cloths for hot dishes. There are cattle on the farm - we just had to close windows and doors for the flies. The microwave oven is too high - we moved it down because it's unsafe to pick up a hot bowl from that height. You should see the eucalyptus walk rather than a walk in nature. There is no clear path and many branches and tree stumps blocking it. However, it is beautiful to stand next to the pond at sunset and listen to the birds and frogs. We went for a walk in the mountain and found a very large herd of baboons in the cliffs. It is a rocky road and you need good shoes for it. Get a nice walking stick along the way to help. There is another hiking trail up by the dam. The children really enjoyed paddling and swimming at the pond. You can ride the bikes there or if you want to get some exercise, walk the 2km there. It is also accessible by 4x4 vehicle. There is a security light that burns all night, but the windows have good blackout curtains and blinds so that it doesn't disturb you when you sleep. The weekend on Bosch River was very enjoyable and we would definitely recommend it. Just remember to ask ahead of time if the DSTV needs to be switched on. Thank you for all your advice and kindness. It was nice to also hear a bit about the history of the buildings.

Thank you for a wonderful weekend on Bosch River. We totally relaxed - and the KolKol on the porch was a massive bonus! The cottage is perfectly located and tastefully furnished. Ideal for nature lovers who like to explore the mountains.

Most delicious weekend getaway!
Beautifully restored accommodation, which is superbly and neatly furnished. Lovely time on the stoep and next door (with a view of the dam and the beginning of the Rûens). The hot tub is an excellent addition, and feel free to stop by the tasting room (with their equally friendly staff). We will definitely come again!

Winter warm treats.
We were 4 adults who stayed in The Shed on Bosch River and can unequivocally say that it is great accommodation. An indoor braai kept the living area warm and cozy, while the wind and rain raged outside. We had a wonderful rest and also took advantage of some nice walking sessions on the farm! Bosch River Accommodation is definitely worth a visit!

Hi Tania. Julle het definitief in winter tyd gekom terwyl dinge nat en koud is, so ek's bly als was gemaklik en warm. Ek geniet terugvoer as mense bietjie gestap het en verken het, met ons pratige Fynbos wereld op ons agterstoep. Hou gerus ons akkommdasie dop oor die volgende tydperk, ons installeer binnekort ons kolkol warmbadjies!

Very nice and comfortable with peasant hospitality!
Warm welcome and for our family reunion it was the ideal place, each in a separate house. The farm atmosphere contributed to a lovely family gathering and the owners were constantly available. We had a great time together!

Very nice but can improve.
Very cute place. The wind blew quite a bit every day but that's just the weather. Very comfortable except for the hot days it was very difficult to sleep. I went to buy 2 fans otherwise we wouldn't be able to sleep. Saw many bugs and a snake too. It's apparently common. Nice Jacuzzi on the porch. Not really a view. Overall nice but doubt I would go again especially with small children. Bed linen and towels of good quality.

About the road, yes, it is a problem but we are doing our best to make it as smooth as possible. I have logged a query to the municipality to send a bulldozer to scrape the road but they are helping the people in Rivier Sonderend and they cannot attend our road now, so we are making the best of a bad road.

The tranquil farm atmosphere makes you forget about all your worries, and when you depart, you feel farm fresh again.
The available accommodation is just as good for the small traveller as it is for a group of 20 people. The inside braai in the school was an absolute winner when the weather was bad, and here we could have a great time and a braai with all our friends.

Good and comfortable.
The farm manager came to fetch us when we lost our way there (we were ready to taste some wine!), but he was very friendly and helpful. We stayed in the cottage. It had everything we needed and the kitchen was well equipped and clean. Loved the full DStv. The only thing that went wrong (it was our fault) is that we didn't close the bathroom window and a lot of bugs came in. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.
