'n Aandjie weg met die gesin.

Die plaas is 'n droomplek vir kinders en daar is ook plek vir mamma/pappa om 'n oomblik te vat in die Zen-tuin. Ons het 'n heerlike tydjie gehad in die Owl-kothuis. Die plekkie was mooi skoon en toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het. Dit is langs die donkies en lamas, so jou kinders kan veilig die diere voer. Regtig 'n lekker plekkie.

An evening away with the family.

The farm is a dream place for children and there is also room for mum/dad to take a moment in the Zen garden. We had a lovely time in the Owl cottage. The place was nice and clean and equipped with everything you need. It is next to the donkeys and llamas, so your children can safely feed the animals. Really a nice place.

Dankie vir lugverkoeling op die ongelooflike warm dae, jammer oor loadshedding.

Die plekkie waar ons gebly het was redelik toegerus, meer rustiek. Die kombuisgeriewe is nie aangepas vir 'load shedding' nie. Daar is geen gasfasiliteit nie, net 'n tradisionele stoof en 'n elektriese ketel, en 'n baie klein yskas. Voorafkennis van die feit dat die gastehuis ver uit die dorp sou help, veral omdat mens nie enigsins kan gaan uiteet of vinnig iets naby gaan koop nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Thanks for air cooling on the incredibly hot days, sorry about loadshedding.

The place where we stayed was quite equipped, more rustic. The kitchen facilities are not adapted for 'load shedding'. There is no gas facility, just a traditional stove and an electric kettle, and a very small fridge. Prior knowledge of the fact that the guest house is far out of town would help, especially since one cannot go out to eat at all or quickly buy something nearby.

Netjiese, rustic kampplek.

Baie netjiese en privaat kampplekke. Vriendelike bestuur. Netjiese en unieke opset met al die diere. Vir ligte slapers, as mens net in 'n tent slaap is die verkeer geraas van die hoofpad, steurend hard deur die nag.

As jy 'n diereliefhebber is is dit die perfekte plek. Ek en my vrou was daar met 12- en 14-jarige meisies en hulle kon vrylik op die plaas loop sonder dat ek my moes bekommer oor hulle veiligheid. Eienaars is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Dit is een van my gunstelingplekke om te besoek met kinders wat lief is vir diere.

Nie wat ons verwag het nie.

Kamers is baie klein, is swak belig en donker. Waterdruk is belaglik. Ongelukkig is daar min foto's van die plek wat jou 'n beter idee kan gee van hoe dit daar lyk. Daar is geen toegangsbeheer nie, net 'n klein hekkie wat self oop- en toegemaak moet word. Enige iemand het toegang tot die perseel.

Not what we expected.

Rooms are very small, poorly lit and dark. Water pressure is ridiculous. Unfortunately there are few pictures of the place that can give you a better idea of what it looks like. There is no access control, just a small gate that needs to be opened and closed. Anyone has access to the premises.

Unforgettable.

We had a wonderful time at Fynbos Guest Farm. The camp sites are perfect and private and the quietness is just what the soul needs. The walking trails are so much fun, especially the Labyrinth and the kids absolutely loved the farm animals. Running across logs, over water and skipping stones with my boys is the best time I have had in a very long time. This place really brings you to a standstill to just enjoy nature and your family. The views, the animals, the farm, the hospitality ... everything was just perfect. Thank you Peter for everything and being such an awesome host! We will be back.

Ek sal dit definitief aanbeveel vir mense met klein kinders.

Die kinders het veral ons verblyf baie geniet. Die plaasatmosfeer en die diere was vir hulle 'n hoogtepunt. Die wooneenheid was gerieflik met alles wat jy nodig het in 'n selfsorg-eenheid.

I would definitely recommend it to people with small children.

The children especially enjoyed our stay. The farm atmosphere and the animals were a highlight for them. The living unit was comfortable with everything you need in a self-catering unit.

Rustige plaas, baie goed ingerig.

Baie diere om te sien, mooi uitsig, baie goed ingerigte kothuis met kaggel en droë hout. Peter was baie hulpvaardig en gasvry. Naby aan Tulbagh dorpie. Veilig.

Baie vriendelike gashere wat uit hul pad gaan om jou verblyf so gerieflik moontlik te maak.

Pragtige omgewing met baie netjiese en kampplekke wat redelik privaat is. Die chalet's lyk van buite af ook baie mooi en gerieflik. Daar is heelwat om te doen op die plaas, dit is 'n klein paradys. Hoogs aan te bevole!

Onuitgesproke skoonheid.

Ons was uiters hartseer dat ons so laat daar aangekom het. Maar was so verras en het die volgende oggend die tuine en plaas terdeë geniet. As 'n mens by die Houthuis se stoepie sit en uitkyk, sou mens nooit sê dit is 'n werkende plaas nie. Die omliggende tuine is met soveel passie en liefde uitgelê en is 'n bliss om voor te kyk. Die houthuis is gerieflik en baie netjies. Dan is Peter een van die vriendelikste mense wat ons teë gekom het. 'n Absolute móét as 'n mens in die omgewing is. Asemrowend.

Indescribable beauty.

Such a pity we arrived so late. But the next morning we were so surprised and we really enjoyed the gardens and the far. Doesn't even feel like a working farm when you sit on cabin patio. Gardens are laid out and maintained with love and passion such a bliss to behold. The cabin is comfortable and very neat. Peter is one of the friendliest people we've ever met. You have to visit this place if you are in the area. Breathtaking.

Die Owl Cottage op Fynbos Gasteplaas is 'n lieflike plekkie tussen interessante diere en pragtige natuurskoon.

Ons groupie het die Owl Cottage op Fynbos Gasteplaas terdeë geniet: op die plaas is daar 'n groot versameling eksotiese diere en voël; verskeie aktiwiteite en 'n heerlike swembad. Die plaas is geleë in 'n omgewing waar enige natuurliefhebber se hartsnare getokkel word deur intensiewe landbou-aktiwiteite; asemrowende natuurskoon en energieke buitelug aktiwiteite. Ons besoek was beslis 'n lusmaker vir die volgende keer.

Problems regarding water pressure seldom last long, apologies that at the time you wanted to shower, there seemed to be no water. Had we known about this, we could have sorted out the problem, if the electricity supply is interrupted, the trip switch occasionally goes down and needs to be reset to fix the water pressure. We are often complimented on the cleanliness and tidiness of our ablution block, thank you for your favourable comment!

Pragtige natuurskoon; ongewone diere; hartlike gasvryheid en die rustigheid - weg van die stadsgewoel.

My ideaal van 'n wegbreek van die dolle stadsgejaag, kon ek hier vind. Selfs die een aand se stormwind en reën is omskep in 'n knusse warmte met die oop kaggelvuur wat Peter vir my kom aansteek het. Sy mandjie met ontbytkos was vol verrassings en heerlik! Die diere op sy plaas was nog weer 'n ander belewenis! Soggens vroeg is ek begroet deur sy poue; ganse, asook sy vriendelike, goed geleerde honde. Peter sorg vir weggooidiere, asook perde, springbokkies en lamas, ens., wat in gevaar was om geskiet of geslag te word. Die omringende berge en natuurskoon is indrukwekkend en pragtig. Hierdie plaas is 'n ware lafenis vir enigiemand wat net rus en vrede vir sy siel soek.

Beautiful scenery; unusual animals; warm hospitality and tranquility - away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

I could find my ideal of a break from the crazy city rush here. Even the one night's stormy wind and rain was transformed into a cozy warmth with the open fire that Peter came to light for me. His basket of breakfast food was full of surprises and delicious! The animals on his farm were yet another experience! Early in the morning I was greeted by his peacocks; geese, as well as his friendly, well-trained dogs. Peter takes care of discarded animals, as well as horses, spring goats and llamas, etc., that were in danger of being shot or slaughtered. The surrounding mountains and scenery are impressive and beautiful. This farm is a real escape for anyone who is just looking for peace and quiet for his soul.
