Peaceful, comfortable, safe.

We had a lovely stay, the space was much bigger than anticipated. The fireplace was a life saver, and the fact that wood was provided was a huge plus.

Fantasties!

Camphor Tree House sal ek met graagte aanbeveel vir enige iemand wat Grabouw wil verken - baie goed geleë en die geriewe van hoogstaande gehalte! Selfs in die winter was dit meer as aangenaam. Die tafel by die ingeboude braai sal baie herinneringe kan maak vir almal. Dankie, ons kom kuier weer!

Fantastic!

I would happily recommend Camphor Tree House to anyone who wants to explore Grabouw - very well located and the facilities are of high quality! Even in winter it was more than pleasant. The table by the built-in braai will make many memories for everyone. Thank you, we will visit again!

Lieflike ruim huis!

Elke vertrek skep ruimte om asem te haal en steeds mekaar se teenwoordigheid te geniet. Dit is soveel groter as wat die foto's oordra. Die kombuis is selfs ook 'n lekker samekomsplek terwyl jy kosmaak. Dit was lekker om 'n nuwe omgewing vanuit so 'n lieflike huis te verken. Beslis 'n huis weg van jou eie huis!

Lovely spacious home!

Each room creates space to breathe and still enjoy each other's presence. It is so much bigger than the pictures convey. The kitchen is even a nice gathering place while you cook. It was nice to explore a new environment from such a lovely home. Definitely a home away from home!

A delightful stay with elegant touches and adequate room.

The property was absolutely delightful. Neat, clean, spacious, and cottage-like, yet modern. The furniture was very comfortable with lovely touches in the kitchen. I loved the separate kitchen sink area. The bathroom was also lovely with a spacious shower. There was a beautiful solid wooden table in the lounge area. The only downside was the musty smell coming from the cupboard, which seemed to affect the linen.

Rustig kalm tegemoed komend.

Dit was soos iets uit 'n sprokiesverhaal. Baie netjies en gasvryheid. Nie gevoel soos 'n vakansieoord nie, maar wel soos 'n huis. Kon die warmte voel in die huis, dat daar baie liefde in die huis weerspieel. Wens kon langer bly. Tervergeefs roep die realiteit mens terug vanaf jou droomwêreld. Ek sal beslis weer gebruik maak van die plekkie.

Coming calmly calmly.

It was like something out of a fairy tale. Very neat and hospitable. Didn't feel like a resort, but felt like home. Could feel the warmth in the house, that there is a lot of love reflected in the house. Wish could stay longer. In vain, reality calls you back from your dream world. I will definitely use the place again.

Cosy, neat and perfect.

The stay at Camphor Tree House was just what we needed. The house is very cosy and decorated just to perfection. We felt right at home. The kitchen is well equipped with all the utensils you would need. The beds were very comfortable and the block-out blinds were an added bonus to sleep in a little later than usual. Our host, Stephanie, was also amazing. She gave clear directions and information regarding our stay. We loved every bit of it. Will definitely come back.

Cosy, comfortable, spacious, clean, and wonderful garden, and a great weekend getaway.

The house is very spacious, cosy and comfortable. Various touches to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. The house is secure, has wifi, and a great braai area. There is a lovely garden as well. There were lamps in the rooms for load shedding and even electric blankets on the beds. A gas hob in the kitchen as well. Our host, Stephanie was most helpful and friendly. Altogether a wonderful weekend getaway, and we will be back.

Die akkommodasie is absoluut asemrowend saam met die pragtige tuin en rustige atmosfeer.

Stephanie was baie tegemoetkomend. Ons het die ruimte van die huis en tuin geniet. Daar was 'n tekort aan niks in die huis en dit het nie eers gevoel asof ons in Grabouw is nie. Sal definitief aanbeveel en self weer bespreek.

Wonderful house in odd area.

A lovely large house with the most wonderful and comfortable bedrooms, spacious eating and relaxing areas as well as a well-equipped large kitchen. There was a lovely garden too. All arrangements were made via WhatsApp well ahead of time and worked perfectly. The only issue was the house seemed to be in a slightly less than desirable area, albeit quiet later on, I ended my evening walk early.

Die huis is toegerus met als wat mens benodig vir 'n gerieflike verblyf. Baie dankie.

Die eienaar is bewus van die braai wat ongelukkig baie rook. 'n Moontlike oplossing is om die skoorsteen te verleng om die trek te verbeter. Daar kan ook moontlik 'n hakkie vasgemaak word vir braaitoerusting.
