Beautiful surroundings. Clean and good accommodation. Lovely farm setting.
Everything was great. The indigenous forest where you can walk is a bonus. Beautiful surroundings.

Have fun with restrictions.
Mainly the place is right. If you like rest and the guardian dog for the goats is quiet. The beds are okay, but the curtains are very light-permeable, so in summer you wake up at 04:30. The kitchen is not sufficient to cook for 2 people. The offered breakfast basket is absolutely right. They offer hiking trails, but they are not maintained, so you have to find your own way. The owner had a baby nearby, so a mother-in-law received us. But we only talked to her briefly once when she came to collect eggs. Not seen or spoken to after that, not even at check-out. If you want to fish, you have to organize yourself. The door cannot be closed properly, so security is not right.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate the feedback and endeavour to improve.
As you mentioned, I had just had a baby. At the time of your stay, my baby was 5 days old, so I was not around. However, my mother-in-law (who previously ran the accommodation on the farm) was assisting. I provided my contact details though so that you could reach me at any point.
As a self-catering farm cottage, we do not have a “front desk” as one would find in a guesthouse, but we are available to assist wherever needed. We try to give guests space to relax, but contact details are provided should guests need anything or have any problems or concerns.
Activities off site are expected to be arranged by guests themselves, but we did provide you with contact details for a local guide as well as locations and contacts of fishing spots in the area so that one can choose based on personal preference.
Our hiking trails are maintained and marked, as well as providing a map, but we try to balance the adventure of exploring the forest with maintaining the pathways without interfering with the natural look and feel. We discovered the forest walk sign had fallen down, and this was repaired. We have since printed new signs to make sure the route is more clear.
We discovered that there was a problem with the door lock after you had left, and this was repaired the same day. We have a 24-hour security patrol in the area. I am sorry you did not find the kitchen big enough, but I am glad you enjoyed the picnic meal offerings provided. If you visit this area again, we would like to offer you a complimentary night stay to make up for these problems you experienced.

Pragtige ou huis met ruim vertrekke, waar jy op die plaas bly, maar niks hoef te doen nie.

Beautiful old house with spacious rooms, where you stay on the farm, but don't have to do anything.
We were looking for a break from the city. Our car was literally the only car on the road for the stretch between Nottingham Road and Bramleigh Farm, there were only dairy cows slowing us down. So we had our break. Andre and Kaitlynn received us kindly and our fridge was full of fresh farm products which we confirmed between booking and arrival. When you're vacationing with kids, any shortcut is a huge boon, so that extra was a big plus for me.

Location is good for relaxing. Loved the accommodation, bit over-priced for self catering.
Bramleigh Farm 's response
Dear Shane,
Thank you for your feedback. We hope that, in addition to the self-catering accommodation, you found the inclusion of free uncapped high-speed WiFi, fresh milk from the dairy every day, 100% natural toiletries, daily servicing and facilities available on site, made the cost of the stay more valuable.
Activities available at Bramleigh Farm are not charged for, apart from the detailed farm tour, so we understand that you may be referring to activities available in the area that came at a high cost.

Ideal breakaway in quiet farm atmosphere. Kait and André thought of every possible comfort to make our stay stress-free. Thank you for the lovely breakfast which we could enjoy on our little stoep! Next time we're coming to do the hiking trails.

Stunning, quiet and one with nature.
I was looking for a place where we could just shut off from everything. Bramleigh Manor is perfect for that. The only TV was the fireplace in the room, great forest TV!

Rustige hawe, baie vriendelike gashere.
Ons het 'n lekker tyd by Bramleigh Manor Guest Farm gehad. Die omgewing is wonderlik en huisies gesellig en gemaklik met 'n heerlike houtkaggel wat die hele plekkie opwarm. André en Kaitlynn was fantastiese gashere, verwelkomend, akkommoderend en behulpsaam. Sal beslis aanbeveel vir 'n rustige vakansie.
