Have a great Easter weekend!
We don't really know where to start. Beforehand Ryna was so helpful with all questions I had. What a great weekend with fantastic facilities, luxurious and accessible. Everything we needed was available. Wood for sale on the farm, a massive bag at a very reasonable price. Great 4x4 route to drive with the beautiful scenery. The most enjoyable was the peaceful camp atmosphere and my favorite was waking up to birds chirping, lambs and goats you hear and the rooster crowing. Didn't want to say goodbye to this farm. Thank you Kosie and Ryna, you will definitely see us again soon! Our souls are fed after the weekend.

Nice peaceful, beautiful, pet friendly place with lots of birds.
Neat lawns on the pitches. Amenities are basic and clean but adequate. If the resort fills up, the facilities will surely come under pressure. The owners should probably just notify visitors in advance to bring their own drinking water and toilet paper.

The stand has plenty of space and the setting was perfect.
Firewood and drinking water are available at the office. Furthermore, you have to provide for everything yourself. There is enough to keep you busy with walking, swimming and cycling. An extra bathroom or two wouldn't go amiss

Unbelievably peaceful weekend in nature.
We enjoyed a wonderful Easter weekend on the farm with the farm animals grazing around us. The surroundings and the campsite were clean and tidy. I was a bit disappointed with all the dogs that were allowed on the campsite, running around at will without any collars. At one point we counted 7 dogs. The mountain bike trails were particularly beautiful. We will definitely visit again.

A bit challenging for old motorhomes. Nice and quiet.
I'm glad we were there, but if I doubt I would have ventured if I knew the way beforehand. The dirt road from Albertinia was passable at 30 km/h and not too long. 15 km. The last dip to the river was bad, but I've already learned that the ascent is easier. The campsite was very beautiful, but also a bit downhill. The campsite was very nice and peaceful. Only one co-visitor. The setting is impressive along the river. The ablution was under renovation, but we could use one unimpeded. The hot shower required some patience. Gas. So a bit rough for us, but I'm glad we were there.

Very nice place!
Besides the cold, it was an awesome getaway. Very quiet place and amazingly beautiful wildlife surrounded us. Will definitely go again. I just think there should be a spotlight somewhere, maybe not too bright, but bright enough to see around you. The starry skies is amazingly beautiful.

Aangenaam.

Pleasant.
The bathrooms are a bit far from the lower pitches, as are the power points. We did not know that there would be no drinking water at the camp ─ the reservations could only have stipulated that. A self-serve/ 'honesty' box can be added and wood, water and ice can be made available for campers. Then you don't have to drive all the way back to Albertinia if you might have forgotten it.

It was fantastic!
I camped there with my friends and we celebrated the New Year there. Breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful. I hope that when I return enough rain would've fallen to get the river running again!

Hi Ruben
Ons is baie bly dat jul dit hier geniet het. Dankie vir positiewe terugvoer. Ons het nog baie om op te verbeter aangesien dit ons eerste jaar van kamp is. Die stilte hier by ons langs die rivier gaan ons trefkrag bly. Kom kuier gerus weer. Altyd lekker om sulke aangename, jong mense soos jul, wat die natuur geniet, te ontmoet.
Groete
Kosie en Ryna

Camp and relax with farm life. Blessed.
We had a great camp! View was exceptional! The owners, Kosie and Ryna, were very helpful and hospitable. We walked in the field, rode mountain bikes and went 4×4! Next time we bring fishing rods and books about birds! You will definitely see us again!

Dit is in 'n begin-stadium. Dames en mans gebruik dieselfde toilettte en storte. Ek hou glad nie daarvan nie.

In its start-up phase. Ladies and gents use the same toilets and showers. I didn't like that at all.
There are no power outlets. The showers and toilets are shared by ladies and gents. The doors of the toilets and the showers are short, so if you walk by and someone is facing your way you can basically see everything. I wouldn't have minded if the ladies and gents were separated.
