Die drie aande hier was te min. Kom weer vir 'n week.

Ons het baie lekker gebly in Fivaz wat uitkyk op 'n groot grasperk en naby die rivier is. Dis sprokiesmooi en het alles in wat jy nodig het.

We had a great stay in Fivaz which overlooks a large lawn and is close to the river. It's fairytale beautiful and has everything you need.

Tranquil, true Karoo beauty, special place and special people.

2nd time visiting. First time by myself as 1-night stop-over with motorbike trip. Beautiful, peaceful, extremely friendly and professional owners and staff. Decided to go back for 2 nights as part of a longer motorbike trip with my son. Very clean. Everything you need. Where can you braai and relax next to, and also swim in a river a few meters in front of the house you stay in? One of my "go to" places for the future. The photos provided don't give true credit of the venue. Visit their website to see more.

Stil, rustig, natuurskoon, sterre!

Sommige sal kla oor die gebrek aan TV en sin. In so 'n ligging tussen die berge en natuur is dit presies wat jy wil hê. Gaan stap in die berge en ontspan dan in die houtvuur bad na die tyd met 'n wyntjie. Die natuurlike swemgat in die rivier het selfs seesand!

Some will complain about the lack of TV and sense. In such a location between the mountains and nature, this is exactly what you want. Go for a walk in the mountains and then relax in the wood-fired bath afterwards with a little wine. The natural swimming hole in the river even has sea sand!

N heerlike 2 rustige nagte met baie vriendelike mense.

Ons het die besoek baie geniet. Dit was rustig en vreedsaam met genoeg om te doen. Die WiFi werk goed en die gasheer was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Kinders het selfs met 'n perdekar gery. Ek sal 'n paar goed aanbeveel. Dit is baie moeilik om kos te maak vir 4 mense as daar net 4 van alles is. Dalk 'n paar ekstra messegoed en bakkies, en dalk 'n paar plastiek bakkies vir die kinders. Die hak agter die badkamerdeur is los, en ook dalk 'n rakkie in die badkamer. Niks bly staan op die rand van die wasbak nie. Het ook gedink daar was 'n jacuzzi, maar dit was net die een huisie.

A lovely 2 peaceful nights with very friendly people.

We really enjoyed the visit. It was quiet and peaceful with plenty to do. The WiFi works well and the host was very friendly and helpful. Children even rode a horse-drawn carriage. I would recommend a few things. It is very difficult to make food for 4 people when there are only 4 of everything. Maybe some extra cutlery and bowls, and maybe some plastic bowls for the kids. The hinge behind the bathroom door is loose, and also perhaps a shelf in the bathroom. Nothing stays on the edge of the sink. Also thought there was a jacuzzi, but it was only the one cottage.

Die omgewing en ligging is ideaal.

Boskloof Swemgat bied 'n uitstekende ligging en staproetes vir stappers aan. Daar kan wel voorsiening gemaak word vir kaste vir gaste se klere en persoonlike items. Die stofie is regtig nie baie gerieflik nie. Die trappie tussen die slaapkamer en woonvertrek/kombuis is 'n risiko tydens beurtkrag. Ons sou ook waardeer het as ons van beurtkragtye in kennis gestel was.

The environment and location are ideal.

Boskloof Swemgat offers an excellent location and hiking trails for hikers. Provision can be made for cupboards for guests' clothes and personal items. The fabric is really not very comfortable. The step between the bedroom and living room/kitchen is a risk during load shedding. We would also have appreciated if we had been notified of load shedding times.

Ten spyte van reën en koue wat ons ingeperk het, was die natuurskoon, berge en rivier wat ons wel kon sien met 1 nag se oorslaap beeldskoon. Sal beslis weer daar oorslaap en moeite doen om meer te sien indien moontlik.

Cute cottage out of town.

We enjoyed our stay and were warm enough on a couple of very cold nights. With hindsight, we should rather have booked in town as we were viewing flowers. It would have been easier not to have the up and down on the gravel road. This cottage is more suited to a longer stay where people want to explore the immediate surroundings.

Het huisje is schoon en ruim en volledig ingericht. Het ligt echter ver van Clanwilliam aan een onverharde weg. We zijn bij aankomst niet ontvangen, niemand heeft tijdens ons verblijf gevraagd of alles in orde was en bij vertrek heb ik de sleutel in een brievenbus gedaan. Niet gastvrij.

Rustige verblyf langs rivier.

Hierdie was my vyfde besoek aan Nenna se huis en was net so lekker soos die eerste keer. Eerste aand bietjie probleme met die stort gehad, maar dit is die volgende oggend vinnig deur Gretha en haar vriendelike spannetjie uitsorteer. Alles wat nodig is vir lekker verblyf is daar asook goeie wifi. Jy kan ook hout en ys daar koop. Kersie op die koek is die lekker swemgat om in af te koel in Clanwilliam se hitte.

This was my fifth visit to Nenna's house and was just as nice as the first time. Had some problems with the shower the first night, but it was quickly sorted out the next morning by Gretha and her friendly team. Everything you need for a nice stay is there as well as good wifi. You can also buy wood and ice there. Icing on the cake is the nice swimming hole to cool off in Clanwilliam's heat.

Perfek. Skoon en netjies, alles werk. Die kort stukkie grondpad is in 'n baie goeie toestand - per motorfiets met padbande op gereis. Hout, ys en gaskoeldrank te koop by ontvangs. Hulle kan dalk nuwe foto's opsit - die stoep en braai is verbeter sedert die foto's toe ek bespreek het.

Rustig. Pragtige omgewing.

Ons kleinseun was die 1ste aand saam met ons en ons het lekker saam geswem in die swemgat. Ons het als gehad wat ons nodig kon kry. Ontvangs was hartlik en die personeel wat ons raakgeloop het, baie vriendelik. Ek kan eerlikwaar sê dat die enigste ding wat gepla het die vlieë was maar dit is te verstane op 'n werkende plaas en ontsettende hitte. Daar was Doom maar ek het 'n stukkie vleis eenkant gesit in die sak waarin die vleis was en meeste soontoe gelok sodat ons rustig op die stoep kon sit en braai. Sal definitief Boskloof aanbeveel, selfs in winter aangesien daar binne vuurmaakplek is, asook Jacuzzi's beskikbaar is op 2 eenhede se stoepe. Net jammer Boskloof is nie troeteldiervriendelk nie, wat hul uitsluit vir mense wat veral met hul honde wil reis. Ek sal Boskloof met liefde aanbeveel selfs al is daar nie TV nie.

Restful. Beautiful surroundings.

Our grandson was with us the 1st night and we had fun swimming together in the swimming hole. We had everything we could need. Reception was warm and the staff we encountered very friendly. I can honestly say that the only thing that bothered me were the flies but that is understandable on a working farm and excruciating heat. There was Doom but I put a piece of meat aside in the bag in which the meat was and lured most of them there so that we could sit on the porch and have a barbecue. Would definitely recommend Boskloof, even in winter as there is a fire place inside, as well as Jacuzzis available on 2 units' verandas. Just a pity Boskloof is not pet friendly, which excludes them for people who especially want to travel with their dogs. I would recommend Boskloof with love even if there is no TV.

Langhuis and Kliphuis provide privacy and sitting outside well into the night listening to the night sounds and river is a balm for one's soul. Definitely recommended.

Our cottage, Langhuis, was right next to the river, with our own private stretch to swim in. Loved it!

Although there were other cottages in view, with our own access to the river, we felt totally private. The only complaint we would have is the irritation of flies. Our pillows were too hard for our liking but we were given new pillows on request.

Salig.

Lekker gebly, ons huisie moet beslis 'n afdak buite kry, te min skadu, al die ander huise het wel, dit was geadverteer as 'n 6 slaap maar die dubbelslaapbank moet beslis vervang word, my seun moes op die bank slaap. Nie te gemaklik vir 'n 26 jarige nie. Kamers gemaklik en skoon, kombuis kort dalk 'n paar bakkies maar baie lekker gekuier, sal weer gaan.

Blessed.

Nice stay, our little house definitely needs a canopy outside, too little shade, all the other houses do, it was advertised as a 6 sleeper but the double sofa bed definitely needs to be replaced, my son had to sleep on the sofa. Not too comfortable for a 26 year old. Rooms comfortable and clean, kitchen may need a few bowls but had a great time, will go again.

Besprekingsproses en ontvangs was vinnig en maklik. 'n Sak hout ingesluit by die prys sal welkom wees aangesien dit plaasverblyf is en gaste graag buite kuier, ons het gelukkig saamgebring. Vroegoggend-skoonmaak van braaiplek was steurend, vanaf 10:00 na ontruiming sal meer aanvaarbaar wees.

Booking process and reception was quick and easy.

Early morning cleaning of braai area was disturbing, from 10:00 after evacuation would be more acceptable.

Picturesque from the outside but room for improvement.

We stayed for 3 nights in May 2022. Positive: quite a picturesque cottage on beautiful location, normally silent but occasionally some noise from passing farmers with bakkies. Very helpful owner helped us when we got stuck with our rental car, many thanks for that. Good WiFi. Less good: cleanliness was definitely not good. Rather low quality finishing especially kitchen and bathroom. Drainage os shower was blocked (was improved on request). Fireplace was quite dirty with braai fat from previous people. Outdated kitchen inventory, a bit a collection of all kinds of everything. The most serious problem for us however was the bed. We are of average length (< 1. 80) and weight, however this bed is too small/short for us. How old is this mattress? Probably from the previous century. With regrets, but we wouldn't go there a next time.

Dit was 'n fantastiese, stil, rustige paar dae wat my siel so nodig gehad het.

Die huisie is onlangs opgeknap en het meer gelewer as wat ek verwag het. Die braai is onderdak en lugreëling was baie lekker en welkom. Ons het lekker gestap, gedraf, fiets gery en geswem in rivier met lieflike wit sand. Gaan weer kuier in die winter sodat ek die kaggel ook kan probeer. Ons het saans lekker in die " hot tub" op die stoep gesit tot by ons nekke in die warm water. Die mense van Clanwilliam is almal hartsmense. Het baie veilig gevoel.

It was a fantastic, quiet, peaceful few days that my soul so needed.

The cottage was recently renovated and delivered more than I expected. The braai is covered and air conditioning was very nice and welcome. We had fun walking, jogging, cycling and swimming in a river with lovely white sand. Going to visit again in the winter so I can try the fireplace too. In the evening we sat in the "hot tub" on the stoep up to our necks in the hot water. The people of Clanwilliam are all people of the heart. Felt very safe.

Netjies, skoon, gerieflik en puik toegeriste huisvesting.

Hierdie was ons tweedekeer wat ons by Boskloof Swemgat oorgebly het en sou ons weer in die Clanwilliam omgewing moet oorslaap of vakansie gaan hou, sal dit weer ons eerste keuse wees sonder twyfel. Huisvesting is privaat en die braaigeriewe is puik. Hou van die feit dat badkamer toegerus is met beide 'n stort en 'n bad, so beide ek en my vrou word tevrede gehou. Baie dankie Gretha!!

What a pleasant and peaceful stay!

Really enjoyed this place! The location of our cottage "Kliphuis" was very private with the Jan Dissels River bubbling down toward the Olifants. This secluded yet close to town "kloof" has a wonderful sense of the old world. The flowers were beautiful all the way to almost the end of the kloof. We enjoyed birding up and down the kloof! A really good find! I am looking forward to a return visit. The lovely warm Jacuzzi on our stoep was an added bonus. Only Kliphuis has the Jacuzzi! I am also very happy with the no pets policy, just because you know that you will not find abandoned/lost cats or dogs on the property.

Heerlike swempoele, braai en natuur.

Ons het in die Nenna-huisie gebly. Dit het 'n baie lekker braai-area gehad en mens kon baie voëls sien en hoor. Mens kan ook bietjie na die perde en so ewe 'n zebra ook gaan kyk reg langs die huisie. Ons het ook die staproete op die perseel gedoen wat lekker, maar uitdagend was. En toe na die tyd lekker afgekoel in die swempoele. Daar word baie moeite gedoen om seker te maak mens geniet jou tyd om af te skakel.

We also did the walking trail on site which was fun but challenging. And then after the time cool off in the swimming pools. A lot of effort is put into making sure you enjoy your time to switch off.

'n Stukkie paradys.

Ons het beplan om net twee aande daar te slaap, maar dit is so mooi en rustig daar dat ons toe nog 'n dag daar oorgebly het. Alles is skoon en netjies en ons sal beslis weer daar gaan bly.

Rustig, stil en gemaklik.

Die huisie was skoon, netjies, en die jacuzzi reeds aangeskakel toe ek inklok. Die personeel is vriendelik en die buite areas skoon en ingerig. Ek was regtig nie lus om terug te keer na normale lewe, na 'n langnaweek in die rustigheid nie.

Die omgewing en atmosfeer praat met sou siel. Dit bring 'n ongekende rustigheid wat uniek is. Ons het by verskeie plekke oorgeslaap op ons reis deur die Noord- en Weskaap, maar Boskloof Swemgat was spesiaal. Vandat ons by ontvangs ingestap het, tot ons daar weg is.

Enjoyable. Stayed in Fivaz se Huis. The lighting in the living area is very dull and as the weather was cold the evening was spent in the gloom.

For the cold weather a heater would have been appreciated as fire making is not a skill that I have mastered. The window blinds need attention. That being said management noted our complaint of the 1 room and did attempt to rectify the problem. Gretha was most welcoming, friendly and helpful. She sent a staff member to our chalet to help us log on to the WiFi. Beautiful scenery. Would happily return.

Die huis is baie netjies en alles werk perfek. Die ligging van die huis is uitstekend en ook naby aan Clanwilliam en ook besienswaardighede soos die pakhuispas, ens. Die dame wat ons ontvang het was baie vriedelik en gasvry en het haar goed van haar taak gekwyt. Ek kan die plek vir seker aanbeveel en gaan ook meer gereeld van hulle gebruik maak.

Aangenaam.

Die verblyf was baie aangenaam om by aan te kon doen. Die uitsig van die natuur en geklank van die diere in die agtergrond maak dit 'n ideale plek om met jou gesin of lewensmaat te gaan spandeer. Ons gesin is musiekliefhebers en die dat ons nie musiek kon speel of bespeel was nogals 'n teleurstelling. Die kuier was nogtans die moeite werd.

Oortref ons verwagtinge.

Ons het die Langhuis bespreek wat 'n "privaat rotspoel" het. Sou dit die moeite werd wees? Ons het 7 nagte in Januarie bespreek, wat 'n baie warm deel van die jaar is. Ons bevinding: die rotspoel was groot en fantasties om daagliks te kon benut in privaatheid. Die huisie was baie netjies en skoon, perfek vir 2 mense. Die rietdak het dit koel gehou, maar die lugreëling het die slaapkamer binne minute lekker koel gemaak. Interessant genoeg het ons geen las van muskiete gehad nie. Die braaiplek en buite sitplek was onder 'n groot boom langs die huisie - heerlik! Die rooster was nie 'n hoop drade bymekaar gehou deur 'n geroeste raam nie, maar 'n goeie kwaliteit vlekvrye staal rooster in baie goeie toestand. In opsomming was dit 'n wonderlike tyd in 'n pragtige omgewing. Ons sal beslis weer terug wees.

Exceeds our expectations.

We booked the Longhouse which has a "private rock pool". Would it be worth it? We booked 7 nights in January which is a very hot part of the year. Our finding: the rock pool was large and fantastic to be able to use daily in privacy. The house was very neat and clean, perfect for 2 people. The thatched roof kept it cool, but the air conditioning made the bedroom nice and cool in minutes. Interestingly, we had no mosquito burden. The braai area and outside seating was under a large tree next to the house - delicious! The grill was not a bunch of wires held together by a rusted frame, but a good quality stainless steel grill in very good condition. In summary it was a wonderful time in a beautiful setting. We will definitely be back again.

My wife Wilma already sent feedback i. e. The river, out door experience was great, beautiful and quiet setting.

We sent photographs of the condition of the Cottage we rented. It really wasn't up to standard and requires serious upgrading, also not clean i. e. dirty blinds, not cleaned above the mirror in the bathroom, etc. Couldn't access the river from our cottage, bush was overgrown, had to use the neighbouring cottage for access. Personally as stated above, I would not recommend this to any of our friends until we know the cottages have been upgraded.

Heerlike salige wegbreekplekkie op die plaas.

In die kloof langs die rivier staan Langhuis in die skadu van 'n groot wildevy. Goed toegerus, skoon en netjies en die privaatheid wat ons verkies. Bonus was die reën en die rivier wat afgekom het. Veilige staproetes berg op na die grot of stofpad langs na die laagwaterbrug met die skoonste drinkwater. Steeds die mooiste veldblomme en plantegroei en waterstroompies oral waar jy kyk. Vriendelike ontvangs!

In the gorge next to the river stands Langhuis in the shadow of a large fig tree. Well equipped, clean and tidy and the privacy we prefer. Bonus was the rain and the river that came down. Safe hiking trails up the mountain to the cave or dirt road next to the low water bridge with the cleanest drinking water. Still the most beautiful wildflowers and vegetation and water streams everywhere you look. Friendly reception!

Simple, rustic, tranquil getaway.

We stayed in Kliphuis during our flower trip in September 2020. The resort is tucked away next to the river a few minutes from Clanwilliam on a decent dirt road. Each cottage feels private, separated by rocky outcrops and trees. It is simply furnished with comfortable beds, hot and strong water for shower or bath. Very clean, it had everything we needed. Sitting on the stoep stargazing was a highlight. We wished we had booked for longer and will be back.

Friendly and helpful receptionist to welcome us. Comfortable, clean accommodation with all you need.

The cottage has been "done up" since we were last there and looks very nice - loved the painting on the wall.

Baie vriendelike ontvangs. Komplimente aan die persoon verantwoordelik vir die versiering/verf vir die interior. Rustig en pragtige natuurskoon rondom elke huisie. Vir die prys net een klein dingetjie kort, dis seep in die badkamer. Verder was alles daar wat jy nodig het. Dankie.

Natuurskoon wat perfekte sielsrus kom bied.

Ons het in Fivas se huis gebly wat so netjies en pragtig was. Dit was gemaklik, gerieflik en mooi. Die perde en donkie wat wei voor die stoep en selfs kom kuier op die stoep het ons baie vermaak! Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek! Onbesoedelde stilte wat besaai is met diere-geluide laat jou so tuis voel.

We stayed in Fivas' house which was so neat and beautiful. It was comfortable, convenient and beautiful. The horses and donkey that graze in front of the porch and even come to visit on the porch amused us a lot! It was a lovely getaway! Uncontaminated silence dotted with animal sounds makes you feel so at home.

Pragtige ligging. Huisie kan beter toegerus wees en dis bietjie stowwerig-veral die banke en die kussings op die banke is effens vuil. Beddens is baie skoon asook badkamer. Die omgewing is onbeskryflik en die rivier sorg vir baie pret vir jong kinders. Sal def weer gaan. Mense is baie vriendelik!

Heerlike kuier, net ‘n paar sakies om op te los.

WiFi word geadverteer, maar ons huisie was die enigste een sonder sy eie WiFi, met baie beperkte ontvangs vanaf die huisie langsaan. WiFi-toegang, vir werksdoeleindes, was ‘n groot oorweging in ons besluit om Boskloof te besoek. Die houtbankie buite op die stoep moet herstel word. Binne is ‘n paar klein herstelwerkies wat gedoen moet word, soos skroefies vasdraai, los stortkop. Daar was geen seep in die stort nie. Muskietweerders in die kamers word sterk aanbeveel. Die kwaliteit hout wat verkoop word, is nie geskik vir braai nie. Dit het wel goed gewerk vir potjiekos, bring net eie potjie. Die beskrywings van aktiwiteite in die omgewing is effens onduidelik en nie op datum nie (bv. toegangspryse). Let daarop dat die Krakadouw staproete geensins maklik is nie. Die paadjie loop loodreg teen kontoerlyne op en daar is baie los klippe. Hierdie roete is dus slegs vir ervare stappers. Ontvangs was besonder vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons huisie was lekker naby aan die swemgat en ons het heerlik geswem. Daar is ook twee binnebande beskikbaar om in die rivier mee te speel. Die omgewing is regtig mooi en rustig en Clanwilliam is net 10 km weg.

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

Great visit, just a few things to sort out.

WiFi is advertised, but our cottage was the only one without its own WiFi, with very limited reception from the cottage next door. WiFi access, for work purposes, was a major consideration in our decision to visit Boskloof. The wooden bench outside on the porch needs to be repaired. Inside there are some small repairs that need to be done, such as tightening screws, loose shower head. There was no soap in the shower. Mosquito repellents in the rooms are highly recommended. The quality of wood sold is not suitable for barbecuing. It did work well for potty food, just bring your own potty. The descriptions of activities in the area are slightly unclear and not up to date (eg entrance prices). Note that the Krakadouw hiking trail is by no means easy. The path runs perpendicular to contour lines and there are many loose stones. This route is therefore only for experienced hikers. Reception was particularly friendly and helpful. Our little house was very close to the swimming hole and we had a great time swimming. There are also two inner tubes available to play with in the river. The surroundings are really beautiful and peaceful and Clanwilliam is only 10 km away.

Niks was onaangenaam nie, bietjie toegegroei met lang grasse en bosse rondom die huis en die watergat is baie toegespoel, so die algemene gevoel is net om die potensiaal beter te ontsluit.

Nothing was unpleasant, a bit overgrown with long grasses and bushes around the house and the water hole is very washed up, so the general feeling is just to unlock the potential better.

Beautiful and sooothing location.

Just when you start wondering if you're following the right road, you arrive at this absolutely marvellous location. So beautiful, so quiet, so soothing. You have your own small waterfall and an outdoor shower (at least: our lodge had one). Unbelievable to discover that in these wonderful surroundings, one or more of our predecessors found it necessary to leave some cigarette butts nearby the waterfall (no critics to the owner, of course!).

Heerlike rusplekkie vir die siel.

Ons het ons verblyf baie geniet. Sal definitief weer gaan. Die kinders het die rivier en diere baie geniet. Lekker vir fietsry en staproetes.

Baie mooi en rustige omgewing. Net twee klein irritasies; Die Jacuzzi se water kon nie warm word nie, en die hoofslaapkamer se bed maak jou rug seer. Verder was dit heerlik. Sien ons weer later in die jaar.

Ligging is regtig stil en rustig. Geen selfoonsein, maar gratis WiFi. Huis baie skoon en netjies, alles wat mens nodig het om batterye weer te herlaai. Regte plaas-atmosfeer, hoor net koeie, skape en voëls, sonbesies en verder die kabbeling van water. Ons sal enige tyd weer soontoe gaan.

So beautiful and relaxing.

Me and my partner stayed at the Hangnes and the view was spectacular. Even though this little house is more separate and a bit further from the river, at night you can hear the water dribble over the rocks. You can light tour fire and slip into the nice warm Jacuzzi and look at the stars and breathtaking mountains at night. All in all, namaste.

Great surprise, relatively close to Clanwilliam yet isolated and remote enough to relax

A pleasant surprise since you do not always know what to expect from the web pictures alone, but as advertised with no nasty surprises. Feels safe since its not a thoroughfare and we can recommend this as a great escape from the city rush. Also close enough to town to stock up at the Super Spar. I would just recommend taking your own braai wood since the wood is a bit expensive, however it is convenient and nothing to complain about, just a comment.

The peace and serenity is what one needs to refresh and restart for the challenges of daily life!

Boskloof Swemgat was exactly what my husband and I needed. The accommodation was clean and in excellent condition. The surrounds were tranquil, peaceful and refreshing. So glad there were no cellphone reception; no TV. Just the earth, the sky, the river, the animals and us. We found each other again! A lovely passion fruit plant hung on our stoep making the house cool. We loved it!

Heerlike wegbreek wat 'n verskeidenheid genotvolle aktiwiteite gebied het.

Baie goeie waarde vir geld. Boskloof Swemgat is maklik toeganklik, maar steeds afgesonder en bied opsies om net te ontspan, of dit te gebruik as 'n basis om die Cederberge te ontdek. Behoort iets te bied vir enige reisiger. Nie luuks nie, maar bied gemaklike en netjiese verblyf met 'n gasvrye ontvangs.

Baie lekker outentieke ervaring.

As jy hou van onopgesmuktheid en ware lewe, dan is dit die plek vir jou. Met die aankoms het my tiener dadelik gesê hier gaan ons langer bly. Jy betaal 'n fraksie van die koste hier as vir 'n Hydro, maar dit is hier waar jy voel hoe opgeboude spanning uit jou vloei en in die Sederberge verdwyn. Alles is perfek: Die Jacuzzi is 'n wenner vir my een tiener, die skoon swemgat vir my ander esoteriese tiener, die algehele geluksaligheid vir vroulief en natuurlik die braai en outentiekheid vir my. Dis so na aan die aarde as wat jy kan kom. En Gretha, die gasvrou met haar oulike kinders het met behulpsaamheid en vriendelikheid by die fantastiese ervaring bygedra.

Very nice authentic experience.

If you like unadorned and real life, then this is the place for you. Upon arrival, my teenager immediately said here we are going to stay longer. You pay a fraction of the cost here than for a Hydro, but it's here where you feel the built-up tension draining out of you and disappearing into the Cedar Mountains. Everything is perfect: The Jacuzzi is a winner for my one teenager, the clean swimming hole for my other esoteric teenager, the overall bliss for wife and of course the barbecue and authenticity for me. It's as close to earth as you can get. And Gretha, the hostess with her cute children contributed to the fantastic experience with helpfulness and kindness.

Ideale plek vir sterre kyk, sit en staar na 'n waterval en net luister na die voëls en Boskloof se geluide.

Ons het slegs een aand gebly en sal baie graag wil teruggaan. Ons het in 'n warm Jacuzzi gesit en na die sterre gekyk. Afgestap na die waterval en die Boskloof se natuur waardeer. Lekker gebraai en die rustigheid geniet. Lekker ruim oopplan-chalet. Let net daarop dat die slaapkamers nie plafonne het nie. Dit is oop na bo.

Pragtige plek baie rustig

Ons het Boskloof geniet. Pragtige uitsigte, rustige oord. Al die nodige is in die chalet beskikbaar. Daar was net nie tyd om die lekker rivier te geniet en die omgewing te verken nie! Volgende keer definitief! Die wind het net verskriklik die Vrydagaand gewaai en die takkies en sand is by die voordeur ingewaai. Hopelik word daar dalk 'n muurtjie gebou om te verhoed dat takkies en sand inwaai? Andersins, baie lekker gebly! Baie dankie!

Hopefully a little wall will be built to prevent twigs and sand from blowing in? Otherwise, very nice stay! Thank you very much!

Perfekte plek om 'n naweek af te skakel.

Lieflike plekkie, perfek om 'n naweek weg te breek van die geraas van die stad, werk en gejaag. Rus en vrede vir 'n mens se siel.

Aangenaam verras met die verblyf en die omgewing.

Boskloof is in 'n pragtige kloof geleë met baie mooi uitsig op die berge en op die walle van die skoonste rivier wat ek nog gesien het. Lekker gestap in die berg en ideaal geleë vir blommekyk.

Verrukking in die oortreffende trap en 'n ongelooflike kennismaking met die Jan Disselsrivier.

Die lof van die omgewing kan nie genoeg besing word nie. Waar jy draai, kyk jy vas in prentjiemooi. Uiterste temperature, hetsy warm of koud, kan jou binnenshuis dryf, gelukkig maak hierdie binnenshuis volledig voorsiening vir elke uiterste. Die pad soontoe is 'n uitdaging, maar enige Sedan sal jou daar bring. Alles wat jy op Boskloof kry, laat jou dadelik van die entjie sinkplaatpad vergeet. Boskloof is 'n plek waaraan 'n mens altyd weer sal dink, waarna jy sal terug verlang en tien teen een weer sal besoek.

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

Delight in the superlative step and an incredible introduction to the Jan Dissels River.

The praises of the environment cannot be sung enough. Everywhere you turn, you stare at the picture. Extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold, can drive you indoors, luckily this indoors fully caters for every extreme. The road there is a challenge, but any Sedan will get you there. Everything you find on Boskloof immediately makes you forget about the little corrugated iron road. Boskloof is a place that you will always think about again, that you will long to return to and visit again ten to one.

Perfek vir 'n winter-naweek-wegbreek.

As jy soek na 'n lekker wegbreek naweek tydens die koue wintermaande, is Boskloof Swemgat die perfekte plek. Die feit dat daar geen selfoonsein is nie, help jou om te vergeet van die bedrywige lewe wat jy vir 'n tydjie agtergelaat het. Ons het in Nenna se Huis gebly, wat geskik is vir 2 mense of selfs 'n egpaar met 2 jong kinders. Die huisie is baie netjies ingerig met alles wat jy sou nodig hê. Daar is 'n buitebraai, maar jy sal 'n alternatiewe plan moet maak as dit sou reën. Jy kan die rivier hoor as jy op die stoep sit met 'n glasie wyn of selfs binne voor die kaggel met 'n lekker boek. Die mooi wandelpaadjies tussen die sitrusplase laat jou toe om so bietjie uit die huis te kom en die natuurskoon te geniet. Ek sal Boskloof Swemgat vir enigeen aanbeveel wat lus is vir 'n naweek van lafenis.

Perfect for a winter weekend getaway.

If you are looking for a nice weekend getaway during the cold winter months, Boskloof Swimming Pool is the perfect place. The fact that there is no cell phone signal helps you forget about the busy life you have left behind for a while. We stayed in Nenna's House, which is suitable for 2 people or even a couple with 2 young children. The cottage is very neatly furnished with everything you would need. There is an outdoor barbecue, but you will have to make an alternative plan if it rains. You can hear the river when you sit on the porch with a glass of wine or even inside in front of the fireplace with a good book. The beautiful walking paths between the citrus farms allow you to get out of the house a little and enjoy the natural beauty. I would recommend Boskloof Swimming Hole to anyone looking for a weekend of fun.

Beautiful setting. The swimming hole is the clincher.

Enjoyed the swimming tremendously. The climb up to the top of the toring was challenging and left all of us who attempted it with a feeling of accomplishment. Fishing for bass was good. No efforts seem to have been made to reduce the bass and banded tilapia populations. No red fin minnows nor clanwilliam yellow fish were seen with an overabundance of small bass. Management should consider air-conditioning for all units if they wish to fill the units in summer. Overall a wonderful week was enjoyed. We will be back.

Natuur is asemrowed mooi.

Boskloof Swemgat fantasties geleë, dit is werklik mooi en vat mens se asem weg. Die Hangnes 1 kort bietjie opgradering, die stort se warm water werk nie, daar is 'n waaier in die kinderkamer maar nie 'n muurprop vir hom nie, daar is glad nie TV-fasiliteite nie, en die WiFi-kode wat in die inligtingsleêr is werk nie. Die pluspunte was die Jacuzzi met die pragtige uitsig! Sal beslis teruggaan as die huisies opgegradeer word.

Ongelooflik lekker!

Ons het in Maart op die plekkie besluit. Ons het in Nenna gebly. WOW wat 'n uitsig! Dit is absoluut die ideale bestemming om jou batterye te herlaai. Dankie tog vir geen selfoon opvangs en TV's. Ons het met ons bergfietse Saterdagoggend Clanwilliam toe gery vir koffie en al die mense op die pad was so bedagsaam om ons nie onnodig vol stof te jaag nie. Die oord is soos 'n lafenis met die droogte. Dit was by verre die beste R1240 wat ons in 'n lang tyd spandeer het. Baie dankie vir 'n pragtig oord. Julle sien ons vir seker weer!

It was by far the best R1240 we've spent in a long time. Thank you for the beautiful resort. You will definitely see us again soon!

Dis absoluut 'n juweel van 'n blyplek, beeldskoon omgewing en rus vir die siel.

Ons tyd by Boskloofswemgat was ongelooflik lekker en sal definitief enigeen aanbeveel om daarheen te gaan as jy wil rus. Die huisies is toegerus met alles wat jy jy moontlik nodig het, baie netjies en uiteengesit. Al die huisies is ver genoeg van mekaar af sodat elkeen sy eie privaatheid het en glad nie eers mekaar steur of hoor nie. Daar is talle plaasdiere en selfs 2 sebras wat heelwat vermaak verskaf. Die personeel is vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ons het in Kliphuis gebly en daar het jy privaat stroompie wat verby die huisie loop en so hoef jy eintlik nooit buite die grense wat jou huisie te beweeg nie. Ons het die tydjie baie baie geniet en sal beslis weer teruggaan.

All the houses are far enough from each other so that each has their privacy and you don't bother or hear each other at all. There are many farm animals and even 2 zebras that provide entertainment at all times. The staff are helpful and friendly. We stayed in Kliphuis and there you have a private stream flowing past the house and you don't ever have to go outside the borders of the house. We enjoyed our time and will definitely go again.

A small river runs at the feet of the cottages, you are reasonably far from your neighbors so you don't hear jam but only see their light on the woods at night. Bathroom perfect, towels provided. Many towels provided and comfy beds. All kitchen equipment is functional. Braai area with a lot of easy wood around the house.

Rustige wegbreek vir die gesin.

Dit was baie rustig, ons kleintjie het die rivier baie geniet. Ek sou voorstel dat julle 'n paar wandelpaaie na die berg toe oop maak. Sou great wees om te kon stap. Sou ook graag voor die tyd wou weet dat daar geen kaart fasiliteite is nie.

Peaceful and romantic.

We stayed in Hangnes and enjoyed the Jacuzzi on the stoep. It is an amazing place but their needs to be more focus on transforming the unit into a more relaxing atmosphere. The lounge area is very stiff and formal. I would also suggest a comfortable bench or preferably a reclining chair/s for the stoep where you can truly enjoy the peace and quiet whilst dozing off with a good book. THAT would make the unit truly a place to relax and re-generate. I would definitely recommend and would return for another visit.

Rustig en romanties.

Ons het in Hangnes gebly en die Jacuzzi op die stoep vreeslik geniet. Dit is 'n ongelooflike plek maar hulle moet tog probeer om 'n meer ontspannende atmosfeer in die eenheid te skep. Die sitkamer is vreeslik styf en formeel. Ek stel ook 'n gemaklike bank of 'n gemakstoel voor sodat jy werklik die rustigheid en stilte kan indrink terwyl jy sit en boeklees. Dít sal nou lekker wees en die eenheid omskep in 'n plek waar jy heerlik kan ontspan en herlaai. Ek kan dit regtig aanbeveel en sal beslis weer daar 'n draai maak.

Peace and quiet.

Beautiful surroundings, very quiet. Everything was clean and well taken care off. For people without a 4x4 car, just note that lots of roads in the Cedarberg area are gravel roads, especially difficult if you want to go to small villages like Wuppertal (not worth the long drive there b.t.w.). Other than that the stay was just amazing.

'n Oase in die woestyn.

Ons ontvangs was baie vriendelik en die personeel was baie tegemoetkomend. Die plekkie is perfek vir die reisiger met klein kindertjies. Ons dogtertjie (3jr) en seuntjie (amper2) het te heerlik in die vlak water van die swemgat baljaar. Daar is 'n swaai en glyplank reg voor ons huisie gewees en selfs die zebra het 'n paar keer kom groet!

Our reception was very friendly and the staff were very accommodating. The place is perfect for the traveler with small children.

There was a swing and slide right in front of our little house and even the zebra came to say hello a few times!

As jy opsoek is na 'n wegbreek in die natuur sonder alledaagse tierlantyntjies, met net die sterre en rivier, 'n braaivleisvuur en die mense waarvoor jy lief is, is Boskloof 'n moet.

Ons wil baie graag weer gaan kuier, Boskloof is definitief aan te bevele, net jammer ons het net een nag gehad. Die eenhede is skoon en netjies en daar is alles wat 'n mens benodig. Die rivier is maklik bereikbaar en die donkie en perde wat gereeld kom kuier het in die kamp by ons huisie, was bonusvermaak vir ons 2 jarige dogtertjie! Elke eenheid het 2 binnebande om op die rivier mee rond te dryf wat 'n lekker verrassing was en daar is selfs 'n klimraam met 'n swaai en 'n glyplank vir die kleintjies! Al waaroor ek kan kla, is dat daar nêrens 'n kers in sig was vir die kersblakers nie! Dit was darem nie dringend nie, ek wou net kerse aansteek met aandete! Die dame by ontvangs het ook nie geweet van ons wat moet arriveer nie, maar dis my skuld ook, want ek het nie enige bewyse saamgebring nie! Ek weet nie of ek misgelees het nie, maar ons was nie bewus daarvan dat daar geen selfoonopvangs is nie, so ons kon nie die mense by die huis laat weet het dat ons veilig is nie!

If you're looking for a break in nature without everyday tidbits, with just the stars and river, a barbecue fire and the people you love, Boskloof is a must.

We would very much like to visit again, Boskloof is definitely recommended, just a pity we only had one night. The units are clean and tidy and there is everything one needs. The river is easily accessible and the donkey and horses that often visited the camp at our cottage were bonus entertainment for our 2 year old daughter! Each unit has 2 inner tubes to float around on the river which was a nice surprise and there is even a climbing frame with a swing and a slide for the little ones! All I can complain about is that there was not a candle anywhere in sight for the candlelighters! At least it wasn't urgent, I just wanted to light candles with dinner! The lady at reception didn't know about us arriving either, but that's my fault too, because I didn't bring any proof! I don't know if I read it wrong, but we weren't aware that there was no cell phone reception, so we couldn't have let the people at home know that we were safe!

Lekker gebly en waarde vir geld.

Die wegbreek was heerlik en ons het rêrig ontspan. Die huisie skoon en volledig. Die een teerpunt is dat die huisie is reg op die plaaspad so die stilte was gereeld gebreek met voertuie wat verby ry asook ook voetgangers wat hard en duidelik praat. Dit gesê, was baie lekker.

Heerlike stil plek, pragtige natuurskoon.

Ons het die natuur en stilte om ons so geniet! Die kinders (3 en 4 jaar) kon veilig speel by die rivier en kastele bou in die sand. Die perde, donkies en sebra was 'n hoogtepunt vir hulle. Alhoewel die kaggel/binnebraai swak trek en ons dit nie kon gebruik nie, was die huisie lekker gerieflik. Ons het 'n broodmes gemis. En daar is net 2 hangers. Die geyser drukking is baie swak en mens sukkel as jy warm wil stort. Maar die positiewe is ver meer as die negatiewe! Daar is die mooiste uitsig vanaf die dubbelbed. Mens word sommer met 'n lied in jou hart wakker.

Wonderful, quiet place, lovely nature.

We loved being surrounded by stillness and nature! The kids (3 and 4) played their hearts out in the safe area by the river and they even built sand castles. The horses, donkeys, and sebra were the hightlights for them. We couldn't use the fireplace/inside braai, smoke kept coming out, but the house was comfy. No breadknife. And only 2 clothes hangers. Low pressure in the geyser, so quiet a struggle to have a warm shower. But the positives outweight the negatives! Stunning view from the double bed. You wake up with a smile on your face.

Fantasties en rustig gedurende die week.

Fantasties en rustig gedurende die week maar 'n nagmerrie Vrydagnag met dronk bure in twee huise wat dwarsdeur die nag tot 6 uur die volgende oggend geraas het. Boskloof Swemgat word as 'n rustige wegbreek bemark en die reëls moet pertinent met afsny tye in die huise aangebring word en streng afgedwing word. Ek sal egter nogsteeds Boskloof Swemgat aanbeveel want ek glo daar sal aandag gegee word aan die probleem.

Fantastic and relaxing during the week, but a nightmare on Friday nights, drunk neighbours in two houses making so much noise until 6 the next morning. They market Boskloof Swemgat as a relaxing getaway so the rules should indicate strict times and this should be enforced. I still recommend Boskloof Swemgat because I'm sure they'll do something about it.

Heerlik stil en rustig.

Ons het twee aande oorgebly in Boskloof.Ons was nie baie hartlik ontvang nie. In die huisie waar ons gebly het was daar baie inligting oor Clanwilliam, maar die skedule van die jaar se gebeure in Clanwilliam was vir 2015. Daar was geen inligting oor Boskloof self nie.Die volgende dag wou ons gaan stap na die grot en bergpoele, maar ons het nie enige inligting oor die roete gehad nie. Daar was niemand by ontvangs en nadat ons die klokkie gedruk het en 'n paar minute gewag het het 'n dame opgedaag en kon darem vir ons verduidelik waar die staproete begin. Ons het op pad terug verdwaal, en is seker dit kon vermy gewees het as ons beter inligting gehad het. Ons huisie was baie netjies, pragtige uitsig en als wat mens benodig. Heerlik stil en rustig.

We stayed in Boskloof for two nights. We didn't really receive a warm welcoming. In the house we stayed there was a lot of information about Clanwilliam, but the schedule of the year's events in Clanwilliam was for 2015. No information about Boskloof itself. The next day we wanted to go to the cave and mountain pools, but we didn't have any information about the route. Couldn't fnd anyone at reception and after we rang the bell and waited a few minutes, a lady arrived and could tell us where the trail starts. We got lost on our way, and we're sure it could have been avoided if we had more information. Our cottage was very neat, with a beautiful view and had everything we needed. Very quiet and peaceful.

Aangenaam en rustig.

Ons het Boskloof in Maart besoek en dit is 'n groen oase in 'n andersins dorre landskap. Almal het die swemgat baie geniet en dit was 'n ware lafenis in Clanwilliam se hitte. Ons het in Gustav gebly (slaapplek vir 8 mense) maar die eetkamertafel het net 5 stoele gehad. Boskloof is beslis nie die ideale vakansieplek vir 'n stadsjapie wat nie sonder sy TV en selfoonontvangs kan lewe nie!

We visited Boskloof in March and it is a green oasis in an otherwise barren landscape. Everyone really enjoyed the swimming hole and it was a real treat in Clanwilliam's heat. We stayed in Gustav (sleeps 8) but the dining table only had 5 chairs. Boskloof is definitely not the ideal holiday spot for a city dweller who cannot live without his TV and mobile phone reception!

Boskloof Swemgat is baie mooi en ons het lekker gekuier. Die huisies is pragtig. Ek dink dit kan net binne opgeknap word, bv. hangplek vir klere, en voldoende muurproppe, asook 'n spieëltafel met voldoende lig waarby 'n mens kan sit en skryf of/en grimeer en hare kam.

Enjoyable outdoor experience.

The accommodation needs serious repairs. Gustav cottage's front door doesn't lock or unlock easily. The kitchen tap and hand-spray over bath need repairs. The dustbin drawer and the cupboard in the bathroom are needing repair. We saw at least 3 beehives in hollow logs close to the house. We needed an extra dustbin packet. There wasn't a proper drying up cloth. There should definitely be fly screens on windows and doors as the flies were bad even in cooler weather. Generally they need to revamp the entire cottage as it's not up to standard for what they charge. People we met who had a one bedroom cottage left early as their bed was extremely uncomfortable. I've got friends going there in December and am concerned.

Dis 'n baie mooi rusplek maar die 10 km grondpad uit die dorp is nie in 'n baie goeie toestand nie.

Die ontvangs was nie baie hartlik nie. Die eenheid is 'n baie mooi romantiese hartbeeshuisie wat netjies en goed toegerus is. Daar is 'n braai binne die huisie sowel as buite. Die binnebraai laat soms die plek na rook ruik. Die enigste negatiewe opmerking is dat daar geen selfoon-ontvangs is nie en die WiFi soos geadverteer is beperk tot die ontvangslokaal.

It is a beautiful place to rest but the 10 km gravel road from town is not in a good condition.

Not a very warm welcome. The unit is a beautiful "hartbeeshuisie" that is neat and well-equipped. Inside and outside braai. Inside braai lets smoke into the house at times. The only negative thing was the lack of cellphone recdeption and the WiFi, as advertised, is only available at reception.

Unieke verblyf, pragtige natuur, rustige atmosfeer.

Die oord bied 'n unieke vakansie ervaring met die swemgat in die rivier en sy afsondering uit die dorp uit. Die chalet is nie luuks nie, maar die idee is beslis om buite die chalet te wees in die natuur en verder in die omgewing. Ongelukkig was die chalet nie baie skoon nie. Dit was jammer want dit doen die plek onreg aan.

Unique accommodation, beautiful nature, peaceful atmosphere.

The resort offers a unique holiday experience with the swimming hole in the river and its seclusion from the town. The chalet is not luxurious, but the idea is definitely to be outside the chalet in nature and further in the area. Unfortunately the chalet was not very clean. It was a shame because it does the place an injustice.

'n Pragtige, rustige omgewing om in te ontspan en uitstekende waarde vir geld.

Die kliëntediens was uitstekend. As gevolg van 'n motorfietsongeluk kon die een persoon waarvoor daar ook bespreek was, nie daar wees nie. Alhoewel daar aangebied is om vir die persoon te betaal, wou die eienaar niks daarvan weet nie. Die oornagplek was pragtig skoon en netjies gewees. Die omgewing en natuur was asemrowend. Voorwaar 'n plek wat ek weer sal opsoek as die geleentheid hom opdoen.

A beautiful, peaceful setting to relax in and excellent value for money.

The customer service was excellent. Due to a motorcycle accident, the one person who was also booked for could not be there. Although there was an offer to pay for the person, the owner wanted nothing to do with it. The overnight stay was beautifully clean and tidy. The environment and nature were breathtaking. Truly a place I will seek out again if the opportunity presents itself.

Baie sentraal geleë. Baie hartlike ontvangs, het ons sommer onmiddellik tuis laat voel. Nenna se huisie het alles gebied wat ons nodig gehad het. Asemrowende omgewing. Sielevoedsel. Beslis 'n verdere besoek werd.

Ons het blindelings bespreek om bietjie weg te kom van ons besige program. Ons het nooit verwag om hierdie stukkie paradys raak te loop nie. Ek beskryf dit graag as luukse eenvoud. Dankie vir die ongelooflike vriendelike ontvangs, hulpvaardigheid en lekker geselsies. Ons is jaloers op almal wat meer tyd as ons daar kan spandeer.

As jy wil wegkom van telefone en soek vir rustigheid, dit is die plek. Die Owen huisie wat ons bespreek het, het alles ingehad en is regtig so volledig ingerig dat dit 'n plesier is om net jou koelboks af te pak.

Baie rustig weg van die stadsgejaadheid af. Die rivier is 'n treffer.

Dit was verskriklik warm in die Kaap tydens ons besoek, en aangesien die vensters en deur nie veiligheidshekke en diefwering het nie, was ons te bang om dit snags oop te maak. Ons het vreeslik warm gekry, ten spyte van die waaiers wat verskaf is. Ons het ten spyte daarvan ons verblyf baie geniet.

Very quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The river is a hit.

It was terribly hot in the Cape during our visit, and since the windows and door do not have security gates and burglar bars, we were too afraid to open them at night. We got terribly hot, despite the fans provided. Despite that, we really enjoyed our stay.

Ek en my eggenoot en 2 kinders was daar. Die ontvangs was goed, die huisie skoon en netjies. Die rustigheid en kalmte wat mens daar ervaar is asemrowend. Weg van die geraas van die dorp. Ek gaan beslis weer en die keer vat ek my hele familie.

Pathetic for R1000 per day at Nennas Cottage.

Goodness, this was the most pathetic accommodation for this price. The house is build from old ZAR asbestos or whatever panels. The so-to-be lounge is as big as a post stamp with a 2 seater couch as old as Noas Ark. Four people could not sit in the lounge and as it was heavily raining the first night, we (4 adults) had to squeeze into this tiny lounge/kitchenette. The only positive thing was the fireplace and the mattresses were of good quality. The second bedroom is so small that the couple staying there had to put their suitcases at the footend of their beds! We will never go there again. The location is very good.

Very poor service, but fantastic accommodation.

The place is very cute and well laid out, but having said that, we had a misunderstanding with the caretakers and they swapped the rooms with other guests. I was not happy with it at all seeing as my main reason for booking was the Jacuzzi, we didn't have the Jacuzzi then on Friday, they put another family with two small children in the room. The caretaker lady now wants to move the family at 8 o'clock in the evening. I then told her no it's not right, it's not right to have to move a whole family in the evening after they've unpacked. There was also no attempt made to accommodate us about the situation. We are so half made to feel that we are now wrong not to be happy with it. Furthermore, there was also a man from the office on Saturday who just shouted sorry for the inconvenience, and if they are not happy they should just take their things and go! I don't know if they are the owners - if not, I definitely feel the owners should be informed of their behavior and absolute poor customer service and plain failure. The other family, who now also had them in the wrong house, also said that they had been there before and were not at all satisfied with the service. Very nice place to stay but service like that is the reason I will not go there again and will not recommend anyone to go there. Very nice place but good service is only part of the whole experience. I would really recommend you get hold of the owners and discuss it with them, those people can very quickly drag such a nice place's name through the mud. Contact me if you need more information.

Aanwysings baie goed. Die plek is rustig en dis lekker om te gaan stap. Daar is baie speelplek vir kinders. Heerlike uitspanplek vir 'n familie met kinders. Sal definitief weer daar wil gaan kuier. Net jammer daar is nie ontvangs vir selfoon, TV en of radio nie.

Ons het heerlik gebly.

Dit is 'n heerlike plekkie vir 'n paartjie sonder kinders. Privaat swempoel is 'n groot pluspunt in die somer! Daar is nie kaste om klere op te hang nie. Verder is alles heerlik rustig, stil en die ideale plekkie om weg te kom van die gejaag van die lewe.

Absoluut heerlik!

Ideale vakansie vir gesin. Verblyf is skoon, netjies en goed toegerus. Ligging baie goed - naby genoeg aan dorp, maar steeds afgesonder en sonder WiFi/selfoon ontvangs om te kan ontspan. Die swemgat is fantasties. Ons was heeldag op die 'strand', het 4 visse gevang en op trekkerbinnebande op water en riviertjie rondgedryf. Stap teen berg op was selfs vir 5-jarige toeganklik, en uitsigte pragtig. Ons gaan verseker weer kom!

Ideal holiday for family. Accommodation is clean, tidy and well equipped. Location very good - close enough to town, but still secluded and without WiFi/mobile phone reception to be able to relax. The swimming hole is fantastic. We were on the 'beach' all day, caught 4 fish and floated around on water and river on tractor tires. Walking up mountain was accessible even for 5 year old, and views beautiful. We will definitely come again!

Aangename vakansie in 'n baie "rustic" omgewing.

Ek, my gesin en 'n ander gesin het vir 'n paar dae gaan bly by Boskloof. Die huis het 'n pragtige stoep en braai gehad. Die plaas is baie stil en rustig en die perfekte omgewing om af te skakel en te rus. Dit is ook na genoeg aan die dorp om terug te gaan vir inkopies en besienswaardighede. Daar was verskriklik baie vismotte, spinnekoppe en ander kreature binne ons huisie, so as hierdie dinge jou baie pla, is dit dalk nie die plek om te gaan ontspan nie. Die rivier met die strandjie was verseker die hoogtepunt en die kinders het die so baie geniet.

Pleasant holiday in a very "rustic" environment.

Me, my family and another family went to stay at Boskloof for a few days. The house had a beautiful porch and braai. The farm is very quiet and peaceful and the perfect environment to switch off and rest. It's also close enough to town to walk back for shopping and sightseeing. There were an awful lot of fish moths, spiders and other creatures inside our cottage, so if these things bother you a lot, this might not be the place to go to relax. The river with the little beach was certainly the highlight and the children enjoyed it so much.

Pragtige omgewing met rus en vrede oral. Vandaar in die dag uitgery na Clanwilliam en tot by Langebaan.

Die verblyf is uniek in 'n ou huisie. Hangplek vir klere is totaal afwesig. Voordeur kon nie oopsluit wanneer dit toegemaak is nie. Ek wou die oggend gaan hulp daarmee vra maar daar was niemand op kantoor nie. Die dame wat ons ontvang het, was vriendelik maar het 'n sterk drankreuk en sleeptong. Ek moet byvoeg ons het eers om ongeveer 18:40 gearriveer, as dit 'n verskoning kan wees. Ten spyte van die bogenoemde is dit 'n pragtige omgewing en huisie waar 'n mens kan rus en ontspan. Geen skoonmaakdiens nie: ook nie aangebied teen ekstra betaling nie.

Beautiful surroundings with peace and quiet everywhere. From there in the day drove out to Clanwilliam and up to Langebaan.

The accommodation is unique in an old house. Hanging space for clothes is totally absent. Front door could not unlock when closed. I wanted to ask for help with that in the morning but there was no one in the office. The lady who received us was friendly but had a strong smell of booze and a trailing tongue. I should add we didn't arrive until about 6.40pm, if that may be an excuse. Despite the above, it is a beautiful environment and cottage where one can rest and relax. No cleaning service: not offered at extra charge either.

Slegs vir avontuurlustige mense!

Dit was 'n baie lekker kuier gewees! Baie rustig. Die sterre in die aande was iets gewees om te aanskou, asemrowend. Die huisies is regte ou plaashuis-ontwerpe en indien jy iets weelderig soek is die nie die plek vir jou nie. Jy moet as 'n groep mense gaan wat die hele aand kan kuier. Aangesien daar nie TV's of selfoonontvangs is nie moet julle maar iets saamvat om die kinders besig te hou as julle as ouers net wil agteroor sit en ontspan en ingeval die rivierwater 'n bietjie koud is. Vir die prys wat jy betaal, het ons 'n klein bietjie meer verwag as wat ons gekry het. Indien jy met jou familie of vriende in kontak wil hou moet jy inry dorpie toe.

Only for adventurous people!

It was a very nice visit! Very calm. The stars in the evenings had been something to behold, breathtaking. The cottages are real old farmhouse designs and if you are looking for something luxurious this is not the place for you. You should go as a group of people who can hang out all night. Since there are no TVs or mobile phone reception, you just have to take something with you to keep the children occupied if you as parents just want to sit back and relax and in case the river water is a little cold. For the price you pay, we expected a little more than we got. If you want to keep in touch with your family or friends, you have to drive into the village.

Ons sal nooit weer daar tuisgaan nie dit was vir ons 'n teleurstelling.

Ek het 6 maande voor die besoek aan Clanwilliam die oornag akkommodasie by Boskloofswemgat bespreek en ten volle betaal. Ons het slegs een nag daar deurgebring en die huisie was vir ons 'n groot teleurstelling. Ons is 'n 2 slaapkamer asbes-huisie toegeken met baie beknopte slaapkamertjies. Die badkamer is groot en die leefarea/kombuis aanvaarbaar. Die huisie is afgeleef, oud en van die meubels is afgeleef en stukkend. Dit was nie behoorlik skoongemaak nie. Die chalet reg langs ons was 'n pragtige Kaapse-styl steengebou met 'n grasdak en die kamers en meubels was pragtig en ruim. Dit is ook 'n 2 slaapkamer en geen gas glo ek sal oor daai een kla nie. Vermy dit om in No 2 te bly. Dit is aaklig en werklik 'n teleurstelling as mens pragtige ou Kaapse-plaasstyl verwag. Wees ook gewaarsku dat daar 'n breekskadedeposito in kontant vereis word met aankoms.

We will never stay there again it was a disappointment for us.

I booked and paid in full for the overnight accommodation at Boskloofswemgat 6 months before the visit to Clanwilliam. We spent only one night there and the cottage was a big disappointment for us. We were allocated a 2 bedroom asbestos cottage with very cramped bedrooms. The bathroom is large and the living area/kitchen acceptable. The house is run down, old and some of the furniture is run down and broken. It was not cleaned properly. The chalet right next to us was a beautiful Cape style stone building with a thatched roof and the rooms and furniture were beautiful and spacious. It is also a 2 bedroom and no guest believes I will complain about that one. Avoid staying in No. 2. It's awful and a real let down if you're expecting beautiful old Cape farm style. Also be warned that a breakage deposit in cash is required on arrival.

Die plek is idillies geleë.

Daar is geen diens gedurende die verblyf nie, behalwe die braai-area wat skoongemaak word.

There is no service during the stay, apart from the braai area which is cleaned.

Heerlike, rustige omgewing.

Ek het dit gekies om sentimentele waarde ... en baie meer gekry waarop ek gehoop het. Al was dit hoog somer en baie warm het ek die verblyf terdeë geniet.

Lovely, peaceful environment.

I chose it for sentimental value...and got much more than I hoped for. Even though it was high summer and very hot, I thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

Ons het ons verblyf by Boskloofswemgat baie geniet.

Die aanwysings na Boskloofswemgat was goed en baie duidelik. Ons was baie verras met die plek! Die prys was baie billik en dis 'n pragtige omgewing en terrein. Ons sal die plek vir almal baie sterk aanbeveel.

Romantic, fun and no noise!! I could live here and feed the donkeys all day long...love it!

My spouse, my 3year old son, and I booked in for a 2-night stay. We sat under the trees and enjoyed the views, as well as the cool water of the swembad and took long walks. I would go and stay there next weekend again if I could! It was fantastic!! It's everything you can ask for if you want to rest and start the Monday fresh and with a smile.

A very beautiful place. The cottage was well appointed. The bed was comfortable with good quality linen.

We enjoyed our stay. It is a beautiful spot, just suggest that the hostess makes some suggestions about the area and where we should go. Our only complaint was the braai, which needs to be replaced.

Beautiful, quiet, peaceful, unbelievable

The little house was lovely and the locality was stunning. One of the best things was that there was no TV, radio or cell phone reception and you could hear the river and the birds. You could also see the horses in the distance. In the evening we had a visit from a Jack Russell who refused to go home, he only went when we went to sleep and in the morning we had much fun playing with a young Labrador and later watching her playing with a doggie friend. My friend was so excited, because there are so few places you can take your dogs with. I knew that from your website, but did not tell her, because we did not have place in the car for her dog, but she will definitely try to go there again. If we were not in such a hurry, we would really have stayed longer. Thank you for introducing us to this lovely place.
