A jewel that will be revisited.

An ultimate slice of joy and peace. The cottage has everything you need for all seasons, which includes a heater, aircon and a fireplace. Beautiful, fresh, clean, high-quality linen and all the utensils, cutlery you need. Lovely big towels and an amazing walk-in shower. My host was attentive and available if I needed anything. The views are magnificent and the dam is very inviting. The peacocks were lovely to have around as well.

Onvergeetlike natuurskoon en verblyf.

Uitsigte was asemrowend! Olive Cottage het alles wat jy nodig het en heerlik privaat. Shane was 'n uitstekende gasheer en het vooraf alle inligting aangestuur per WhatsApp. Hy het seker gemaak ons verblyf gaan heerlik wees. Ons sal vir seker weer soontoe wil gaan.

Pragtige rustige ontspanne plek.

Ons (6 volwassenes en 2 jong kinders) het heerlik gekuier. Die kinders het fiets gery en rond beweeg sonder dat ons hul heeltyd moes dophou. Heerlik gestap op die plaas.

Peaceful two days on Fraaigelegen farm outside Tulbagh.

Our stay was very relaxing, and we found that the cottage exceeded our expectations. The facilities were far more than mentioned on your website, for example, a hair dryer, coffee, tea, coffee plunger, and battery lights for load shedding outages. Guests should just be aware that the water supply is pressurised and therefore down during load shedding.

We were relatively satisfied.

The shower was below standard. Two small shower heads that spray a few thin jets - not great. Furthermore, the shower's outlet flows poorly with the result that you stand in a pool of water while you - and the next person - shower. Rooms and bedding were neat. Overall impression is that small upgrades and renovations can make a big positive difference.

Sal dit glad nie aanbeveel vir vriende, ens. Die pad daarheen kry nie aandag nie.

Nee, sal nie weer besoek nie. Dit is nie 'n werkende plaas soos geadverteer nie. Daar was geen geskenk soos hout nie, vir alles moes ekstra betaal word sou jy dit wou gebruik.

Would not recommend to friends etc at all. The road to it does not get attention.

No, will not visit again. This is not a working farm as advertised. There was no gift like wood, everything had to be paid for extra if you wanted to use it.

Discouraged as we called in advance regarding our needs for pets.

We were heartily welcomed and the cottage is beautiful, but not practical for pets. All pet-friendly places should allow for a fenced-in garden so that animals can be secure. Control measurements must be integrated. The bridge crossing from the car to the cottage was loose (front right corner). Pierre struggles to walk and has been on disability for the past 15 years and nearly lost his balance. Allowing pets does not = pet-friendly. Cancellations should be dealt with by the booking agent and ensure that in the event that the goods offered meet the requirements of the client. Owners should not be allowed to directly contact the client as they aren't customer service reps, they are merely a host, acting as an intermediary. We called as soon as we secured alternative pet-friendly accommodation and explained why it's not suitable. The agent acknowledged that the owner of the property was merely consistently calling to apologise for the bridge. Due to misleading info and the safety incident that occurred, we should have been reimbursed the full amount.

Fraaigelegen Farm 's response

We are glad to hear that you had been heartily welcomed and that you liked our cottage, but we are sorry to hear that you felt strongly about some aspects.

We totally understand that not every holiday location suits everyone’s specific requirements and had we known that you were arriving with 4 dogs (the maximum number we allow for our cottage is 2), we would have discouraged you to book with us in the first place or, depending on the individual situation, made specific arrangements.

We deliberately refrain from building fences or walls around our cottages to share and enjoy the openness and freedom of a working farm with our guests.
This is why we specifically accept only well behaved dogs and ask our guests to keep their dogs under control or on the leash, not only out of respect for other guests but also for the natural environment and wildlife on the farm. This has worked very well for us and our many pet-loving guests over the past years.

Many of our guests have contacted us prior to their arrival, when they had specific personal needs due to disability or otherwise, and in most cases we are able to accommodate them or make arrangements like a ramp for wheelchairs etc. Safety and well-being of our guests is one of our highest priorities and we do everything possible to ensure this.

Even upon arrival there is usually a possibility to mitigate existing concerns, like your feeling uncertain about the bridge - but it requires our guests to address them with us, rather than suddenly leaving the accommodation and property without any message.

Most of our guests do appreciate the direct contact with them, to give directions and recommendations about their stay and to ensure that everything is in good order, so if we did try to contact you it was out of concern. We would have been more than happy to find alternative accommodation that would have better suited your specific requirements.

We hope you had a great stay in our beautiful Tulbagh Valley.

Goeie medisyne vir die siel!

Pragtige, rustige omgewing. Die 'cottage' is met alles toegerus wat jy nodig het. 'n Mens mis nie eers 'n TV nie, want dit is te lekker om buite te sit of rond te stap op die plaas. Die diens was baie goed. Dit wat 'n groot hulp dat ons op hoogte gehou is van die kragonderbrekings. As ek oor iets moet 'kla', is dit die pad wat plek-plek baie hobbelrig is. 'n Mens moet ekstra versigtig ry want daar is gate en plek-plek groterige klippe.

Good medicine for the soul!

Beautiful, peaceful surroundings. The 'cottage' is equipped with everything you need. You don't even miss a TV, because it's too nice to sit outside or walk around the farm. The service was very good. What a great help that we were kept informed of the power outages. If I have to 'complain' about something, it's the road which is very bumpy in places. One has to drive extra carefully because there are holes and in places larger stones.

Baie mooi omgewing en waarde vir geld.

Pragtige omgewing, maar daar is 'n paar dinge wat nie op standaard was nie. Geen water beskikbaar gedurende "loadshedding" nie. Die onmiddelike omgewing rondom die huis benodig 'n bietjie TLC en kan verbeter. Die huis was wel baie goed toegerus en ons het die een oorslaapnag baie geniet.

Rus en ontspan in asemrowende omgewing.

Die eienaars het ons baie welkom laat voel. Venishree en Juergen het ons hartlik ontvang en laat tuis voel. Die kothuis is geleë in 'n pragtige omgewing. Berge, wingerde, olyfboorde met baie plek om te stap en verken. Wonderlike voëllewe en 'n absolute lus vir die oog en siel. Die kothuis is basies en toegerus soos beskryf. Alles in werkende en goeie toestand. Heerlike linne en matrasse maak die nagrus verfrissend. Wolsely en Tulbagh is naby met wonderlike plekke om te besoek indien jy sou verkies. Ons het heerlik gekuier.

The owners made us feel very welcome. Venishree and Juergen received us warmly and made us feel at home. The cottage is located in a beautiful environment. Mountains, vineyards, olive groves with plenty of space to walk and explore. Wonderful birdlife and an absolute treat for the eye and soul. The cottage is basic and equipped as described. All in working and good condition. Delicious linen and mattresses make the night's rest refreshing. Wolsely and Tulbagh are close by with great places to visit if you so choose. We had a great time.

Amazing hospitality, peaceful and tranquil.

Just what we needed for a proper breakaway. So quiet and peaceful, 10 minutes drive to Tulbagh centre. Will definitely return in winter to explore some more. The hospitality from Venishree and Juergen was top class, all information we needed was provided and they were always available when we needed to ask anything, but had all the privacy we needed too. Loved the fact we could have our dog there too! Cottage neat and tidy and had everything you would need. Beautiful walking through the olive trees and vineyards which were ready to harvest too. Could not recommend this place highly enough! Will return soon again.

Dear Jacques, greetings from Fraaigelegen Farm. Thank you for taking the time to provide this lovely feedback. It is much appreciated and we are really happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay.
Thank you for the feedback on the gravel roads. Like most wine farms in SA, we are accessible via a gravel road and we try our best to tell our guests about the 3km gravel road from the R46. So far, we have guests from all over the world in large overlanders, caravans, and small rental cars come and stay with us. We encourage guests to drive slowly and carefully and this works well.
We really enjoyed chatting with you both and will definitely visit you in Somerset West!
Looking forward to seeing you again.

Tranquility in the countryside.

The setting is beautiful, the Olive Cottage was simple yet functionally furnished, everything was there that we needed. Linen and towels were of top top quality. The stream outside the cottage was a big win for our small son and furry Labrador. Walks on the farm were glorious and even a mountain bike ride was possible. Hosts were very friendly and attentive, communication was excellent. I would highly recommend this farm as it’s far enough away from Cape Town to get away from city bustle yet close enough for a weekend getaway!

The cottage has the basic essentials. Our previous olive/wine farm provided their olive oil for us to sue and a bottle of wine , rusks, a farm bread etc. That just seemed friendlier. The laundry service at Fraaigelegen was fabulous.

What a beautiful and tranquil getaway this is. We loved the sounds of the birds and the beautiful sunrise and sunsets. The hosts really gave us a warm welcome and made us feel right at home and they personally delivered the fresh farm eggs we ordered. We stayed in the Shiraz cottage. It was very nice and clean and has everything you would need for the weekend, including utensils for the braai. We would recommend Fraaigelegen to family and friends anytime and would also love to go back there ourselves. Awesome weekend getaway!

'n Rustige plek, omring deur berge en natuur, waar stilte jou ore aantas en die rustigheid jou net kalm maak.

Hierdie is 'n pragtige plek. Die huisies is goed toegerus en skoon. 'n Mens sit rustig met 'n glasie wyn in die hand en tuur oor die dam voor jou. 'n Lekker vuurherd vir die wintermaande en oop, stil nagte om die sterrehemel te sit en bekyk. Ons gasvrou sorg dat alles reg is en maak seker dat die vuur in die kaggel brand wanneer jy daar aankom. Ons kon ons 2 Jack Russel hondjies ook saamneem en hulle het die buitelewe geniet. Die akkommodasie is sentraal geleë om Tulbagh, Ceres en Wolseley omgewings te besoek.

A quiet place, surrounded by mountains and nature, where silence touches your ears and the tranquility just makes you calm.

This is a beautiful place. The cottages are well equipped and clean. One sits calmly with a glass of wine in hand and gazes over the pond in front of you. A nice hearth for the winter months and open, quiet nights to sit and watch the starry sky. Our hostess makes sure that everything is in order and makes sure that the fire is burning in the fireplace when you arrive. We were also able to take our 2 Jack Russel puppies with us and they enjoyed the outdoors. The accommodation is centrally located for visiting Tulbagh, Ceres and Wolseley areas.

Netjiese stunning huisie op 'n wyn- en olyfwerksplaas met baie mooi uitsig op berge.

Pragtige goed toegeruste luukse huisie met alles wat jy benodig. Baie vriendelike en behulpsame eienaars. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel, soveel rustigheid tussen die wingerde en berge.

Rustig, gerieflik en uitstekende diens.

Die eenheid is relatief ruim met goeie internet opvangs. Dit bied rustige en stil verblyf en is goed geleë vir maklike besoek aan 'n reeks omliggende dorpe (insluitend Ceres gholfbaan). Die eienaares en haar bestuurder was uiters vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Sal graag weer daar bly.

Doodstil, rustige plekkie weg van enige geraas, met wonderlike sterreprag in die nag. Heerlike gerieflike bed, spierwit, skoon beddegoed en handdoeke. Net een klein probleempie: beide die bo-en onderdeur aan die Noordekant en die ingeboude kas in die hoogslaapkamer se skarniere is so effen lendelam, wat dit moeilik maak om die deure toe te maak

Net een klein probleempie: beide die bo-en onderdeur aan die Noordekant en die ingeboude kas in die hoofslaapkamer se skarniere is so effen lendelam, wat dit moeilik maak om die deure toe te maak. Juergen en Vaneshree het ons vriendelik ontvang en welkom laat voel. Vaneshree se verwelkomingsbriefie was warm en opreg. Ons het die twee dae werklik geniet. Die natuurskoon is pragtig, ten spyte van die droogte. (Die water besparingsinstruksies by die gebruik van die toilet was ietwat dubbelsinnig.)

Dead quiet, peaceful place away from any noise, with wonderful starry at night. Lovely comfortable bed, pure white, clean bed linen and towels. Just one small problem: both the upper and lower door on the North side and the built-in cupboard in the loft bedroom are hinged so flat, which makes it difficult to close the doors

Lovely comfortable bed, pure white, clean bed linen and towels. Just one small problem: both the upper and lower door on the North side and the built-in wardrobe in the master bedroom are hinged so flat, which makes it difficult to close the doors. Juergen and Vaneshree received us kindly and made us feel welcome. Vaneshree's welcome note was warm and sincere. We really enjoyed the two days. The scenery is beautiful, despite the drought. (The water saving instructions when using the toilet were somewhat ambiguous.)

Perfekte wegbreek vir 'n gesin wat rustigheid soek, maar naby genoeg aan Tulbagh en Ceres om bietjie rond te loop.

Ons is 'n gesin van 4 wat die langnaweek by Graaigelegen was. Verblyf is skoon en spinnekop vry. Goeie geriewe met oop grasperk vir kinders om op fiets te ry en rond te hardloop terwyl die grootmense op die stoep sit en braai. Dankie vir 'n wonderlike ervaring!

Perfect getaway for a family looking for tranquility but close enough to Tulbagh and Ceres to walk around a bit.

We are a family of 4 who were at Graaigelegen for the long weekend. Accommodation is clean and spider free. Good facilities with open lawn for children to ride bikes and run around while the adults sit on the veranda and have a barbecue. Thanks for a great experience!

Prentjiemooi.

Ons het ons verblyf hier terdeë geniet. Die gastehuis het alles wat mens nodig het en die mooiste uitkyke. Die gasvrou Verishnee het uit haar pad gegaan om ons so gemaklik moontlik te maak en was baie hulpvaardig toe ons hulp nodig gehad het. Dankie vir die ongelooflike herinneringe.

Baie rustig met die dam en wingerde!

Ligging is baie mooi en die selfsorg-eenheid bevat alles wat jy nodig het. Die feit dat daar geen TV is nie is definitief 'n pluspunt! Sal graag weer wil gaan maar bietjie duur vir afgetredenes. Eienaars het ons baie welkom laat voel.

Rustige omgewing. Pragtige uitsigte.

Eienaars het ons baie vriendelik ontvang. Huisie het alles in gehad wat ons nodig gehad het. Die enigste geluid wat jy hoor is die gekoer van die duiwe en al wat jy sien is die berge rondom jou. Die entjie grondpad moet mens maar net stadig ry om daar te kom. Ideale wegbreek van die stad.

Heerlike uitspan teen die hange van Witzenberge.

Ons het gebly in huisie Shiraz wat 'n lieflike groot moderne warm stort het. Elke sonsondergang was geniet met 'n glasie vonkel op die ruim stoep terwyl 'n vuurtjie aangesteek was. Die vars berglug en rustigheid was heerlik en het ons batterye oor 2 dae ten volle herlaai.
