Mooiste natuur en stilte.

Die enigste probleem was die 10h00 uitgaan, so my vrou kon dit ongelukkig nie beleef nie, want sou dan moes sit en wag vir 5 ure op 'n ander plek.

Most beautiful nature and silence.

The only problem was the 10h00 going out, so unfortunately my wife couldn't experience it, because then she would have to sit and wait for 5 hours in another place.

Dankie vir jou positiewe terugvoer, Annamarie. Ons is bly dat jy jou verblyf geniet het.

Ons is egter altyd oop vir 'n versoek om later uit te boek as daar nie gaste dieselfde dag inkom nie, en sou julle beslis die grasie verleen om later uit te boek.

Ons sien uit daarna om julle binnekort terug te verwelkom.

Godgelooflike ervaring om so naby aan jou Skepper se skepping te kon wees.

Weens onvoorsiene omstandighede buite ons beheer (stormweer) moes ons noodgedwonge vinnig oppak Sondagaand. Daar is geen selfoonopvangs en dit het onophoudelik gereën, so ons het binne 'n uur klaar gepak en 7 uur Sondagaand teruggery Kaap toe. Ons het net betyds teruggekom, anders was ons ook van die mense wat vasgevang was met die oorstromings. Ons beveel die verblyf met die grootste vrymoedigheid aan as jy wil "connect" met God en Sy skepping. Hier kan jy vir seker weer herlaai. Jy het die nodige geriewe om te doen wat jy tuis ook kon doen as dit by etes kom. Alles is daar. Jy mis nie eens jou luuksighede van jou huis nie. Daar is 'n heerlike kaggel asook 'n gasverwarmer. In die somer is daar baie meer aktiwiteite om aan deel te neem, soos fietsry en die staproetes doen, asook die voëls bewonder, en die pragtige plantegroei.

God-believing experience to be so close to your Creator's creation.

Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control (stormy weather), we were forced to pack up quickly on Sunday evening. There is no cell phone reception and it rained non-stop, so we packed up within an hour and drove back to Cape Town at 7 o'clock Sunday evening. We came back just in time, otherwise we would also have been among the people caught in the floods. We recommend the stay with the greatest boldness if you want to "connect" with God and His creation. Here you can reload for sure. You have the necessary facilities to do what you could do at home when it comes to meals. Everything is there. You don't even miss your luxuries of home. There is a lovely fireplace as well as a gas heater. In the summer there are many more activities to take part in, such as cycling and hiking, as well as admiring the birds and the beautiful vegetation.

Solitude. Quietness. Setting is unbelievable.

An excellent 3-night break away to read and do nothing. There was a massive storm and the rain on the roof and passing river sounded amazing. Highly recommended.

So glad you enjoyed your stay, Remke. We appreciate the feedback.

Buitenstekloof Mountain Cottages het ons wildste verwagtinge oortref!

In die 2 dae wat ons hier was, het dit gevoel asof ons vir 'n week lank op vakansie was. Die natuurskoon is absoluut asemrowend. Om op so manier deel te word van die natuur - aanvoelbare stiltes, pragtigste voëlgeluide, kabbelende waterstrome, sonsondergange wat prentjiemooi is en 'n sterreprag wat onbeskryflik is! Die hoogtepunt was natuurlik die verhitte swembadjie! Wat meer wil jy dan nou hê? As jou behoefte is om batterye te laai, is Buitenstekloof Mountain Cottages jou antwoord!

Buitestekloof Mountain Cottages exceeded our wildest expectations!

In the 2 days we were here, it felt like we were on vacation for a week. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. To become part of nature in this way - palpable silences, the most beautiful bird sounds, rippling water streams, sunsets that are picture-perfect and a starry splendor that is indescribable! The highlight was of course the heated swimming pool! What more do you want now? If your need is to charge batteries, Buitestekloof Mountain Cottages is your answer!

Heaven is a place on earth...

And we found it at Buitenstekloof Mountain Cottages! The rustic simplicity of Witkruis Cottage was exactly what we needed for a couple's weekend away. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer.

Thank you for your review, Kathryn.

We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our little piece of heaven, and look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.

Stil, rustig, en ontspannend.

Perfekte plek om te gaan afskakel met 'n lekker boek. Pragtige ligging met berge en fynbos waar jy kyk. Die kothuis het alles wat jy benodig en nog baie meer.

Baie rustig in die berge. Robertson is baie naby en mooi berge as back drop. Awesome plekkie.

Lekker rustig, lekker breek.

Dit berge reg rondom die huisie was mooier as wat ons verwag het. Huisie was ook goed toe gerus. Vat dalk net bietjie ektra blits saam. Sal beslis weer daarso gaan lam lê in die lekker warm swembadjie.

Nice quiet, nice break.

The mountains right around the house were more beautiful than we expected. Huisie was also well rested. Maybe just take some extra flash with you. Will definitely lie there again in the nice warm swimming pool.

Dit is 'n pragtige huisie vir twee. Alles wat jy soek is daar. Die bed slaap so lekker. Dit het ongelukkig gereën so ons kon nie al die staproetes doen of die hot tub benut nie. Sal weer soontoe gaan.

Waarsku dat hout nodig gaan wees vir hot tub en stel voor dat dit vooraf gereël en betaal word. Hulle noem van hout, maar nie dat jy hele klomp gaan nodig hê nie. Wingerdhout brand ook te vinnig. Al voorstel wat ek het.

This is a beautiful cottage for two. Everything you are looking for is there. The bed sleeps so well. Unfortunately it rained so we couldn't do all the hiking trails or use the hot tub. Will go there again.

Warn that wood will be needed for hot tub and suggest that it be arranged and paid for in advance. They mention wood, but not that you're going to need a whole lot. Vine wood also burns too quickly. All suggestion I have.

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer, Bianca. Ons waardeer dit en is bly julle het lekker gerus.

Ons sit wel 'n krat vol houtblokkies uit vir die warmbad om mee af te skop, maar beplan om die wingerdhout met doring of bloekom te vervang wat dan lekker lank sal brand.

Ons sien uit daarna om julle binnekort weer terug te verwelkom.

Wat 'n fantastiese ligging vir rus en vrede.

Die huisie is pragtig en net wat 'n mens nodig het. Die uitsig van oral is asemrowend. Ons het heerlik gaan stap en fiets gaan ry. Die enigste wat ons nog sou wou doen, was swem/roei, maar die swemgat/dam is nie heeltemal geskik daarvoor nie.

What a fantastic location for peace and quiet.

The house is beautiful and just what one needs. The view from everywhere is breathtaking. We had a great time walking and cycling. The only thing we still wanted to do was swimming/paddling, but the swimming hole/pond is not quite suitable for that.

Hi Margaux

Thank your for your positive review - we are glad you enjoyed your stay.

For swimming and relaxing, we installed private hot tubs at each cottage - should you prefer, they can also be used as normal plunge pools for swimming and cooling down. We also provided a small boat at the dam for relaxing on the water.

We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.

Pragtige uitsigte. Heerlike gasverwarmer. Die beste kaggel/binnebraai.

Pragtige uitsigte. Gemaklike tuiste vir 2 mense. Heerlike gasverwarmer, was 'n redding in die koue. Pragtige bedlinne. Die huisie was mooi skoon. Die beste was die wonderlike kaggel/binnebraai wat goed trek. Daar was die volgende oggend geen reuk of teken dat daar die vorige aand gebraai was nie. Baie goeie gasyskas, tweeplaatgasstofie. Warmwater- en kouewatertoevoer baie goed. Toilet werk goed. Stort baie goed. Iets om te oorweeg is 'n klein tafel en 2 stoele in plaas van die halwe vaatjie. Die volgende het aandag nodig: die bed moet binnekort vervang word, daar is 'n los spons bo-op die matras, die sitkamer is uiters ongemaklik, maak jou rug seer. Moes op kampstoele sit, gelukkig het ons ons kampstoele by ons gehad. Ons stel byvoorbeeld voor om die lae bankie en 2 hangmat-stoele uit te haal en eerder 2 gemaklikes in te sit. 'n Mens moet op jou skoot eet. So dit kan 2 gemaklike regop stoele wees. Was stoep se plastiese stoele en staaltafeltjie. Vir behoud mag die eienaar dalk wil oorweeg om die waterpype by die kombuis en stort vas te maak teen die muur. Dit is pragtige waterpype. Oor die algemeen 'n pragtige plek, sal graag weer wil besoek.

Beautiful views. Lovely gas heater. The best fireplace/indoor grill.

Beautiful views. Comfortable home for 2 people. Lovely gas heater, was a lifesaver in the cold. Beautiful bed linen. The house was very clean. The best was the wonderful fireplace/indoor barbecue that draws well. The next morning there was no smell or sign that there had been a roast the night before. Very good gas cupboard, double plate gas stove. Hot and cold water supply very good. Toilet works well. Showers very well. Something to consider is a small table and 2 chairs instead of the half barrel. The following needs attention: the bed needs to be replaced soon, there is a loose sponge on top of the mattress, the living room is extremely uncomfortable, hurts your back. Had to sit on camp chairs, luckily we had our camp chairs with us. For example, we suggest taking out the low bench and 2 hammock chairs and putting in 2 comfortable ones instead. One must eat on one's lap. So it can be 2 comfortable upright chairs. Wash stoep's plastic chairs and steel table. For conservation, the owner may want to consider fixing the water pipes at the kitchen and shower to the wall. These are beautiful water pipes. Overall a lovely place, would love to visit again.

Heinrich, ons is bly julle het die naweek geniet en lekker gerus.
Baie dankie vir jou positiewe terugvoer en ook aanbevelings - ons neem dit ter harte en sal beslis daaraan aandag gee. Net ter inligting, die eksta spons op die bed is 'n eierdopmatras wat meer gerief en sagtheid verskaf vir die persone wat 'n sagter matras verkies, en in die winter ook meer hitte verskaf.
Ons sien uit daarna om julle binnekort weer terug te verwelkom om die opgraderings te kom geniet!
