The best.
From the moment you start driving through the pass, it's just amazing. It feels like another world. The farm is beautiful and the house feels like going back in time. You feel different there, you feel blessed! It's just so peaceful there. Our Labrador was with us and it was great for her to discover the new area. We drove there with heavy hearts.

Nice quiet and peaceful. We walked and watched birds and just had fun!
Very well equipped kitchen, with pots and pans in very good condition. It's quite rare and much appreciated. We could see that the house must have a lot of history. It would be nice if there was something to read about the farm's past. Also a list of activities in and around the farm?

Really enjoyed the silence and surroundings.
We really enjoyed the stay and everything was clean and tidy inside the house. Thank you very much for things like a dishwasher with "pods", enough kitchen items and crockery, and very comfortable mattresses. There are indeed many ticks and people with pets should take precautions.

Peace and quiet.
What a peaceful week it was. The silence is probably everyone's top of the list. The house is really very comfortable and equipped with everything and more that one could ask for. My Poodles were in heaven. Lukas and his wife are so helpful and friendly. Definitely a hidden gem. Thank you for allowing me to use your place to recharge my batteries.

First time experiencing the Heidedal self-catering Guest House and it was incredible, clean and tidy accommodation. Comfortably furnished for self-catering accommodation. The surroundings are beautiful, quiet and peaceful. Just the right place if you want to get away from the daily hustle and bustle. Will go back again anytime.

Ideal for a family weekend!
We spent a wonderful weekend here. The large porch was the ideal place to hang out from where the children could be watched. The house is luxurious without being pretentious. Everything was available. The ice machine was a hit! Jonda's communication was very effective and she is a great hostess!

We were a group of 13 friends who booked the Main House and the Stables for the long weekend.
Everyone spoke highly of the accommodation. The main house is very spacious with a huge patio where we spent most of the weekend. The living room has a lovely fireplace for the colder evenings. The kitchen was fully equipped and the dishwasher and ice machine were very welcome. All the rooms (including those at the Stables) have comfortable mattresses and good quality bedding. The Stables are a bit more rustic, but still well equipped and close enough that you could just walk down to the Main House. A big plus for a large group is that there are more than enough bathrooms (4 in the main house and 2 at the Stables) and that the house was spacious enough that nobody fell over each other. Jonda was very friendly and helpful. Beautiful surroundings and outstanding views. We can't wait to return! And a visit to Ginsmith about 3.5 km from Heidedal for a craft gin tasting is a must! Colleen and Lesley are passionate about their craft and have the most delicious gin and the most beautiful view.

Lovely, spacious, cozy farmhouse that is well equipped for a large family with free Wifi as well as DStv.
The location is great and the house is surrounded by large green lawns with a beautiful view of the mountains. Lovely cozy fireplace in the living room and nice big porch with braai. Jonda is very friendly and helpful and responds quickly to questions. It can be very nice to visit the place in summer, because there are many places to walk as well as small water stream with rock pools in which children will be able to have fun.

The nice and spacious patio is definitely a winner. At Heidedal, no effort is spared to ensure that everything is right and that everyone's requirements are met! Thank you Jonda for all your effort.

Beautiful facilities and the scenery in the area is breathtakingly beautiful.
The cottage (Stalle) is well equipped with everything you need. Jonda put so much effort into beautiful flowers in the unit and she even put the heater on for us so the place was warm when we got there. The area is safe and beautiful. We took our puppy with us and even he was welcomed with open arms. Will definitely visit Heidedal again. Thank you for your hospitality.

The area is incredibly beautiful and rooms are neat and clean.
We were pleasantly surprised. The rooms had nice, clean, white linen and most rooms had an electric blanket. The fireplace was already going when we arrived and the wood provided was nice big logs. The kitchen is well equipped and the stoep was the most delightful place to hang out. The only negative part was the road to get there. Part of it is dirt road, but our Honda Civic made it so not too bad. The view and silence are worth it.

Fairly quiet except for quite a lot of traffic on the way passing by.
If it wasn't for the little dog I took with me, I felt very unsafe. Locks on exterior doors are fitted on the outside of the door. With windows that don't close properly one would at least expect burglar bars in front of windows.

Lovely large farmhouse for a weekend getaway with friends/children.
Heidedal is a beautiful farm in the mountains above Porterville, even deeper into the mountain than the famous Beaverlac. Accommodation is in a beautiful large old farmhouse with plenty of sleeping space! The house is well equipped - lovely big kitchen for cooking together and hanging out. The fireplace in the living room was put to good use during a frosty weekend. You can buy wood for R30 a bag which is delivered right in front of the fireplace. Decor rustic, but everything was sparkling clean and the beds and linen a pleasure. Big old farm porch where you can appreciate the beautiful nature - and nice places for walks if you are a little more energetic than sitting on the porch and watching birds!

What an incredible weekend away. Heidedal is beautiful and has all the facilities you would want on a weekend away. Lucas the caretaker was always available to help. Each room has its own bathroom in the farmhouse so everyone was wonderfully private. The linen is beautiful and the kitchen large and cozy. Of course the porch makes the weekend. Feel free to play golf or tennis in Porterville if you are there. All my friends enjoyed the weekend so much. Would definitely recommend and come back again. Thanks Miranda!
