Surrounded by gardens, trees and views of the Magaliesberge.
Wonderful comfortable accommodation away from the city, and a quick drive from the West Rand in Gauteng. Unit was well equipped and could make a great fire. Place is well furnished with incredible views, and a lovely swimming pool. Also think it is convenient if you book the chalets for a family visit weekend. Night sounds surround a farm visit, and make you feel as if you are far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Skotelbraai is a treat for a nice outdoor breakfast.

Was only for one night.
There are a few things that need to be fixed such as the big crack in the wall in the cottage, cobwebs behind the curtains and under the sink. Roof fans would be a better option instead of free standing fans and spiders in cottage 4 and the refrigerator that does not work in number 4.

The unit we stayed in was clean and tidy but in urgent need of maintenance. The door hinges crack and catch, my husband had to add cooking oil to our bathroom. Paint peeling off in several places, the front door can only be locked from the inside with a padlock and the one toilet leaks. Furthermore, the name Game Farm is misleading as the wildlife currently consists of a total of 2 kudus.

Had a wonderful stay.
No wildlife seen. Cottage 1 and 2 are far from the pool. Guests have to walk or drive to it on a very overgrown footpath. Farm road from the tarmac is very good, but the thorn bushes are a bit dense and scratch vehicles. Cottage itself very nicely furnished and comfortable. Might suggest they get OpenView HD decoder for more options for watching TV.

It was very nice. Very calm. There was just no game. Lots of birds.
We went for a walk but could not have seen the wildlife. The bird life is very active. They can concentrate more on that with the fact that there is no wildlife. Like feeding place and water bowls for the birds. Will definitely go again.

My wife and I did not feel safe because there were no security gates in front of the front and back doors. Anyone can walk in if you leave the door open for fresh air.
We noticed in the tree next to the house there was a rope with cable on it, looking like a gallows. We drove on Saturday afternoon because we didn't feel safe. I talked to Karin about it on Monday and she said they use it for paint rollers to dry. We will not go there again!

We expected a gravel road, but were met by a concrete double track road wel found welcome after the heave rains. Karen was very friendly and showed us the various chalets. We were pleasantly surprised at the size of the double room chalets. Very spacious for socialising around the braai. The pool, though quite deep, was such a welcome refreshment in the heat. Ideal for weekends close to Gauteng. Would love to go back there.

Clean and tidy.
Although the hostess was very friendly, unfortunately there were things that did not work. The TV remote control was broken and the gas grill didn't work at all, even after we asked for another gas bottle. Only 2 plates of the stove worked. The hostess was really very friendly and helpful, but we are of the opinion that the cottage needs some upgrading and attention should be paid to small things (such as the toilet brush which was very dirty).

Karen, a lovely person, received us warmly, offered us another place to live (no. 4), not no. 2 not. She was talking about the lawn mower that gave in. Could see that maintenance between the residential units needs a lot of work. Cook rats in one cupboard. No wildlife seen. Power failure happened every night, only for short periods. Covered parking at the residential units would be a plus.

It's the ideal accommodation for people who want to get out of the city. The silence and nature is blissful. It's also nice and central to tourist attractions. There isn't a lot of game on the farm as indicated on the website, the obstacle course doesn't exist anymore and the walking trails are overgrown with gras which makes it difficult to walk along.
