Children's paradise on a beautiful farm with breathtaking views.
The children could stay busy here for days. The playground is neat and conveniently close to the houses, the tennis court and the games room was a winner with our older child. We also tried out some hiking trails as a family. It was so nice among the wild goats with views of the mountains and the valleys. Michael was a gracious host, he went to buy carrots for us children to feed the ponies, and took us all along when he went to feed the wild animals. So we saw all the goats and zebras, and also flattened the whole farm. It was a lovely bonus. Fonteinskloof is perfect for a family with children, there is more than enough to keep young and old busy. We will be back.

Lovely break in a beautiful setting.
We prefer to stay mostly in self-catering units when we go away. Our unit at Fonteinskloof had everything one could possibly need. Michael was a great host and went the extra mile to make sure everything was ok. We could easily contact him if we needed help/information. Our young daughters, 8 and 6 years old, were able to move around safely and made full use of the pool, even if it was a bit cool.

Scenery there is beautiful, play area for children very cute.
Unfortunately, both my two boys and I started having respiratory symptoms - pretty bad, when we were there. My eyes were blood red, my sons chests were completely closed and I started to get sick. When we got home I was suddenly better. I am a dr. and would strongly recommend that they check the unit for vapor/mould, and check the mattresses and roof. Especially the master bedroom bed was bad for me, I had to sleep with the children. The units get little sun, so this is definitely a possibility.

Really had a great time. Beautiful surroundings near Swellendam and surrounding towns. Facilities were excellent and the owner and manager were very hospitable and helpful. Game drive was also a highlight. Facilities are planned so that they can be used in all weather conditions. Environment safe.

The unspoiled natural beauty and the beautiful eco house hit us for a 6, amazing!
Thank you very much Michael for welcoming us, we felt at home right from the start. We were a group of 8 people and simply all drove with my Isuzu double cab and in the back sat my sister and our friend Annelise and the beautiful Helga, and on the way to the eco-house after which Michael accompanied us, the three ladies on their knees, like dogs chasing carts, to look at all the game as we drove through the game camps, so much so that Annelise bumped her head against the hood of the van over the rough path to the top where the beautiful rustic eco house was waiting for us. It is then there that an incredible weekend of visiting and talking together and the wonder of the natural beauty awaited us. We were left speechless, correction, some of us were speechless, and then there were those who put everything they saw into words in a tone of surprise and wonder, wow look here you, look at the little horses, oh mother mother, and so on it went on. Thank you very much Fonteinskloof, it was truly an unforgettable getaway to a jewel of a place that you cherish at the foot of the Langeberge, we will definitely come to visit again. Greetings from the West Coast pals.

Fonteinskloof Farm 's response
Hi Stefan ,
Thanks so much for using Fonteinskloof. I really hope that I will meet you in the future. Thank you very much for your review. This is greatly appreciated. I was a little disturbed to see that our cleanliness rating was weak and I would really appreciate if you could assist me in attending to the areas that were not properly cleaned as we have prided ourselves on cleanliness but were unfortunately not present and I would like to indicate to Michael the areas we can improve on. Thanks once again for visiting Fonteinskloof and all the best to you and your family .
Regards
William (Billy) O'Grady
