Prakties, eenvoudig en gemaklik.

Ja, presies waarna ek opsoek was. Vinnige oornag slaapplek met basiese geriewe.

Absolutely amazing.

Definitely a winner. Beautiful village. Peace and quiet. Tranquility. Best camping site we've experienced so far. The host Chris absolutely kind, sweet, friendly and helpful. We love that we could choose where we can pitch the tent on the site, the bathroom was clean and tidy. The site itself is safe, clean, green, surrounded with the beautiful nature. Highly recommendable. We will surely return.

Very nice, simple camping.

The camp site is very peaceful and beautiful, a bit close to the owner's house, but still enjoyable.

Beskrywing van die plek was verkeerd.

Dit was "backyard camping".

Dis presies wat ons beskrywing van die kampering is .'n Kampplek in ons agterplaas in die Village .

Het vir 3 nagte bespreek, 50% deposito betaal, maar slegs een aand gebly.

Vriendelike ontvangs, alhoewel onduidelike aanwysings om te kry. Naby aan plaaslike volk se tuistes en heel aand geraas gehoor wat mens nie veilig laat voel nie. Geen omheining om kampeerarea nie.

Booked for 3 nights, paid 50% deposit but only stayed one night.

Friendly reception, although unclear directions to get there. Close to local people's homes and heard noise all evening which does not make you feel safe. No fencing around camping area.

Beste Susan,

Ons beskrywing van die kampplek (wat op die kwotasie verskyn wat aan gaste gestuur word) is as volg:

"Just some extra information: The campsite is in our backyard in the village, we do have braai facilities as well as electricity. There is no swimming pool or entertainment and the campsite is ideal if you want to explore the Tsitsikamma or as a stopover when you are travelling. You will also be the only people on the campsite as I only allow 4 people at a time. The campsite is also not fenced."

Ek het ook 'in detail aanwysings gegee om hier uit te kom. Ongelukkig het julle besluit om nie langer hier te vertoef nie en gery sonder om enigiets aan ons te noem. Met ons aankoms die middag, was julle reeds weg.

Baie mooi skoon en netjies .

Baie lekker skoon en netjiese kampplek, baie mooi opwas en badkamers en genoeg vir kinders om te doen. Vriendelike en behulpsame werkers. Sal aanbeveel vir gesinne met kinders in laerskool, te min vir tieners om te doen. Lekker wegbreek vir langnaweek.

Very nice and clean with a neat campsite, very nice washing up area and bathrooms and enough for the children to do. Friendly and helpful workers. Will recommend for families with children in primary school, too little for teenagers to do. Nice getaway for a long weekend.

Friendly, hospitable, peaceful ─ just what we needed!

After 13 days of walking I finally arrived at my last destination. The owner was very welcoming and showed me around. This was all I needed after my long walk. A place where I could remove my shoes, be welcomed and relax underneath the trees in silence. I paid for three nights, but ended up only staying for one night as I was very tired from walking about 130 km's. The night was to be very cold and the owner offered my one of his personal blankets. The next morning I was scheduled to walk about 5 km's to my bus stop and the owner offered my a lift to my destination which was very pleasing. On top of that he gave me something for breakfast which helped my a lot! My whole journey was incredible and it was people like this gentleman that made my travels a memorable experience. Thank you very much!

Lekker geslaap.

Het dit baie geniet en heel veilig gevoel. Geen grens muur of draad nie. Genoeg bome en lekker sagte gras. Baie braaihout op perseel. Eienaar baie vriendelik. Seker gemaak ons is gelukkig. Baie skoon stort en toilet. Sal weer as oorslaap plek gebruik.

Slept well.

Really enjoyed it and felt very safe. No boundary wall or wire. Enough trees and nice soft grass. Lots of braai wood on site. Owner very friendly. Made sure we were happy. Very clean shower and toilet. Will use again as a place to sleep.

Fasiliteite basies maar skoon.

Die diens was goed en ons het veilig gevoel. Die plek het pragtige gras, dus geen modder as dit reën nie. Die plek is ongelukkig naby 'n informale nedersetting en as die wind in die verkeerde rigting waai of as dit stil is is die nag redelik lawaaierig.

Facilities basic but clean.

The service was good and we felt safe. The place has beautiful grass, so no mud when it rains. The place is unfortunately close to an informal settlement and if the wind blows in the wrong direction or if it is quiet the night is quite noisy.

Kamp in agterplaas, dis nie 'n kampterrein nie.

Netjiese badkamer. Daar is 'n krag-verlengkoord in 'n sakkie, maar nie 'n tafel of enige iets verder nie. Baie mooi bome om onder te kamp as jy goed toegerus is. Vriendelike gasheer.

Backyard camping, it's not a campground.

Neat bathroom. There is a power extension cord in a pouch, but not a table or anything else. Very nice trees to camp under if you are well equipped. Friendly host.

Dit was baie aangenaam en die eienaar het alles gedoen om ons en ons hondjies welkom te laat voel. Ten volle aanbeveel.

Peaceful stay.

I had a wonderful stay at Fijnbosch, they were super accommodating and helpful! The ablutions are top notch and impeccably clean. I camped with my doggy and the location is very central to everything! We had a wonderful time, thank you! Just one thing would be that the area isn't fenced, which worried me a little as a single traveler.

Aaklig!

Dit was glad nie wat ons verwag het nie. Die kampplek is sommer in die eienaar se agtererf. Ons het nie daar geslaap nie, het vir ons alternatiewe verblyf gekry.

Horrible!

It was not at all what we expected. The campsite is right in the owner's backyard. We didn't sleep there, found alternative accommodation for us.

Die kliënt het vooraf geweet wat om hier te verwag , die volgende is 'n gedeelte van 'n epos aan haar voordat hulle gekom het 'Ons bly op 'n akker grond en die kampplek is in die agterste gedeelte van ons erf. Hier is nie heinings nie ook nie 'n swembad nie . Mense gebruik die kampeerplek as 'n basis om die omgewing te verken.'

Not at all what we were led to believe.

So-called "camping" was in a domestic front yard with not even a fence for security from the road.

Verskriklik lekker en gerieflik - sal definitief weer kom!

'n Baie lekker plekkie om by te bly, weg van die geraas van die dorp en stad. Loopafstand van winkels, restaurant en kafee en nog 'n entjie verder kan jy in die woud wees, waar die kinders lekker gespeel het in die waterstroompies. Gerieflike was- en toiletgeriewe en groot grasperk waar kinders kan speel. 'n Rustige dorp waar perde wandel langs die strate. Sal definitief weer gaan, net dalk met meer komberse, want die eerste aand was dit bietjie koud in ons tent.

Terribly nice and comfortable - will definitely come again!

A very nice place to stay, away from the noise of the town and city. Walking distance from shops, restaurant and cafe and a little further you can be in the forest, where the children had fun playing in the water streams. Convenient washing and toilet facilities and large lawn where children can play. A quiet town where horses walk along the streets. Will definitely go again, just maybe with more blankets, because the first night it was a bit cold in our tent.
