A pleasant visit where we felt very much at home. Friendly, helpful hosts.
Unfortunately the wifi is not available in the rooms and we had to sit on the farmhouse porch to get any wifi. In the freezing cold it was a bit tricky. The host recommended that we watch the rugby in the Golden Gate hotel (about 9 km from the guest house). It was a pleasant experience, especially when the host Brian also joined us. We hung out like old friends and it was a nice experience.

Peaceful getaway from the busier Clarens.
We stayed in the Oak Tree Cottage which has a comfortable rondavel feel with a thatched roof keeping the room cool on hot days. The kitchen area is quite small, but was enough to cook and wash dishes. The bar fridge was also just big enough to keep our few days worth of food cool. The bathroom with a shower was pretty neat. The farm itself is breathtaking with a peaceful river and beautiful willow trees under which one can have a picnic. We walked the farm a few times and went jogging in the mornings. It always felt safe. Brian and Lin and their 3 dogs (Tessa, Bently and Genius) were very welcoming and looked after us to make sure we had everything we needed and that we knew where we could go for a walk on the farm and have a picnic. They also gave us suggestions of where we could go for coffee and eat out. We will definitely stay at the De Molen Guestfarm again if we go in the direction of Clarens again.

A quiet visit close to nature.
We have due to ended up with a double booking at De Molen. Lynne, and later Brian, were very welcoming, and we had a great stay in the cozy Oak Tree Cottage. However, the hiking trail to the overhanging cave and the river for fly fishing was our highlight. We will definitely make a visit there again.

Comfortable and simple. A nice halfway stop. Quiet and peaceful.
Easy to find and just a short distance from town. Very quiet and calm, we felt like we were the only people there. We arrived late at night, our hostess was accommodating and friendly. Our room was already nice and warm and ready for us to lay down down our tired bodies. I recommend De Molen for any overnight stay.
