Lekker gelaap, lekker by die kaggelvuur gesit laat aand.

Idillies! Tuis gevoel. Rus en vrede. Het verfris terug gegaan beton-oerwoud toe.

Baie lekker gebly. Het 2 beddens benodig en gasheer het onmiddellik 'n plan gemaak en vir ons 'n kamer met 2 beddens gegee i. p. v. 'n kamer met 'n dubbelbed. Die gasheer en -vrou het ons baie tuis laat voel. My pa wat saamgegaan het, het op Dwarsvlei groot geword en met hulle toestemming kom ons oral op die plaas rondgaan om kinder-herinneringe te herleef. Het selfsorg gekies en het toegang tot alles in die kombuis gehad. Ideaal vir mense wat wil wegbreek van die stad en rus en vrede benodig. Tranquility!

Idyllic! Feeling at home. Rest and peace. Went back to concrete jungle refreshed.

Very nice stay. Needed 2 beds and host immediately made a plan and gave us a room with 2 beds i. p. f. a room with a double bed. The host and wife made us feel very much at home. My father, who went along, grew up on Dwarsvlei and with their permission we go around the farm to relive childhood memories. Chose self catering and had access to everything in the kitchen. Ideal for people who want to get away from the city and need peace and quiet. Tranquility!

Nice farm but the accommodation needs attention!

Dwarsvlei is a beautiful farm, to get to the farm house you drive through the most beautiful forest. . The house and garden are very impressive upon arrival. But there are no clear directions where to go. We did not understand whether we stay in the house or in other accommodation, there are several paths and options. The host and wife were very nice. . The bedroom was enormous with a double and 3 single beds, although there are no curtains on the window?. We assumed (probably wrongly) that we also had an en suite bathroom, but this was not the case, so we were grateful that we were the only guests for the night. The bathroom is down the hall and has a window looking out. The other window cannot close at all. Although it was January, it was an icy cold evening. We got up at 6am the next morning and it was still very cold and unpleasant to use the cold bathroom. The water was really warm. I also got a coffee mug that has a big 'chip' in it. The accommodation has a lot of potential, but the attention to details is lacking!

The standard is not as we are used to Lekeslaap places.

It might be good if Lekkeslaap takes up residence there. and evaluate the situation yourself. Maybe some people will appreciate the antiques, but. the place needs a lot of attention. Cleanliness leaves much to be desired.

Would recommend putting more effort into meals. No napkins etc covered.

Pragtige ou huis, maar het aandag nodig.

Die huis is baie oud met 'n pragtige, outentieke gevoel. Daar is egter nog baie aandag nodig. Die dubbelbed waarin ons geslaap het was baie ongemaklik. Dit was ook nie duidelik dat dit uitsluitlik self-catering was nie. Aangesien dit buite op 'n plaas is is daar dus geen opsie om kos te gaan koop nie. Daar is baie potensiaal met die regte sorg.

Beautiful old house, but needs attention.

The house is very old with a beautiful, authentic feel. However, much attention is still needed. The double bed we slept in was very uncomfortable. It was also not clear that it was exclusively self-catering. Since it is outside on a farm there is no option to go and buy food. There is a lot of potential with the right care.
