Ons sou langer wou bly en net die skoonheid indrink.

Die omgewing is asemrowend mooi. Die plekkie is knus en gesellig met alles wat mens nodig het.

Peaceful and a world away from everyday pressures and complications.

We enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. We were able to take a few walks despite the stormy weather and would enjoy doing that again. It was special to see how much fynbos there is on the farm. We saw orchids and Ericas we are not familiar with.

Sien uit na 'n langer kuier!

Heerlik gekuier in die pragtigste omgewing. Hartlike ontvangs deur die Besters! Swartskaap is 'n baie rustige en volledig toegeruste kothuis. Die beskikbaarheid te koop van die heerlike Hermanuspietersfontein wyne is 'n bonus!

Relaxing, warm, beautiful!

It was very comfortable and lovely and warm with the fireplace going the whole time. Wood is provided and that was a bonus as it was very cold so the fire was on constantly. The panoramic views of the valley were just stunning even in the rainiest of weather and lots of space for the kids to run around on the lush lawns in front of the house when the sun came out for a bit. The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfy with lots of blankets and towels for all of us.

Mooi maar swak aanwysings en onvriendelike diens.

Goeie dag. Ek wil julle graag bewus maak dat die aanwysings binne die plaas uiters swak gedoen is en dit regtig nie maklik gemaak word om die eenheid te kry nie. Die kode wat vir die hek gestuur is via WhatsApp was verkeerd met een syfer, wat 'n maklike fout is om te maak, maar ek voel julle kan meer vriendelik wees wanneer ek dit uitwys. Die een gasbotel by die eenheid was leeg, wat beteken dat julle self nie getoets het of daar warm water was nie. Ek moes dit self verander en gelukkig was daar nog 'n gasbotel, maar ek sou verwag dat julle die tipe goed check voordat gaste inboek. Die badkamerlig wat nie apart kan aansit nie, is ongemaklik wanneer 2 mense in die eenheid bly, veral as mens in die nag van die badkamer moet gebruik maak. Die jong man wat toe met die sleutel na die eenheid gery het, was uiters onvriendelik en sou net wegjaag het as ek hom nie gestop het nie. Dis a.g.v. swak aanwysings wat hy na die eenheid gery het. Ons het regtig dit geniet, maar ervaar julle diens as swak en onvriendelik.

Nice but poor directions and unfriendly service.

Good day I would like to make you aware that the directions inside the farm are extremely poorly done and it really is not made easy to find the unit. The code sent for the gate via WhatsApp was wrong by one digit, which is an easy mistake to make, but I feel you guys can be more kind when I point it out. The one gas bottle at the unit was empty, which means that you yourselves did not test whether there was hot water. I had to change it myself and luckily there was still a gas bottle, but I would expect you to check the type of stuff before guests check in. The bathroom light that cannot be turned on separately is uncomfortable when 2 people stay in the unit, especially if you have to use the bathroom at night. The young man who then drove to the unit with the key was extremely unfriendly and would have just driven off if I hadn't stopped him. It's because of poor directions he drove to the unit. We really enjoyed it, but experience your service as poor and unfriendly.

Hermanuspietersfontein Cottages 's response

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer.
Ons vra omverskoning vir die tikfout van die hekkode - daar is ook 'n interkom stelsel by ons hek.

Al bogemelde kon vermy gewees het indien jy by die kantoor aangemeld het soos ons versoek het per Whatsapp voor die tyd. Ons het julle probeer akkommodeer deur agter julle aan te ry om die sleutels te oorhandig.

Avontuur! Met uitdagings.

Tydens die vloede van 25 September 2023 was ek en my vriendin ingeboek in Swartskaap. Swartskaap het ons toegevou in sy warm jas en veilig gehou terwyl die storm om ons in volle swang gewoed het. Ons motor het dit nie oorleef na die "mudslide" nie. Lochner het uit sy pad gegaan om ons veilig en gerieflik te hou te midde van hulle eie uitdagings met brue en paaie wat weggespoel het. Sonder krag vir 3 dae was ons nog steeds versorg met heerlike warm water en wonderlike kaggelvuur. 10 uit 10 vir vriendelikheid en hulpvaardigheid. Ek gaan definitief weer om die wonderlike natuurskoon en heerlike atmosfeer onder normale omstandighede te kan beleef. Dankie aan Lochner!

Adventure! With challenges.

During the floods of 25 September 2023, my girlfriend and I were booked into Swartskaap. Black Sheep wrapped us in his warm coat and kept us safe while the storm raged around us in full swing. Our car did not survive the mudslide. Lochner went out of his way to keep us safe and comfortable amidst their own challenges with washed out bridges and roads. Without power for 3 days we were still taken care of with lovely hot water and a wonderful log fire. 10 out of 10 for friendliness and helpfulness. I will definitely go again to be able to experience the wonderful scenery and wonderful atmosphere under normal circumstances. Thanks to Lochner!

Heerlike gesinsnaweek.

Was 'n lieflike, nat naweek. Die huisie het alles wat jy benodig om gemaklik te bly. Die kinders het hul pê gespeel om die huis elke dag. Was vroegoggend verwelkom met 'n pragtige duiker wat voor ons stoep gewei het. Enigste voorstel is om ekstra ligte in die hoofslaapkamer te sit. Baie dankie dat julle so 'n mooi plekkie kon deel met ons.

Was a lovely, wet weekend. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The children played around the house every day. Was welcomed early in the morning with a beautiful diver that grazed in front of our porch. Only suggestion is to put extra lights in the master bedroom. Thank you very much for being able to share such a beautiful place with us.

Sal Hermanuspietersfontein enige dag aanbeveel.

Lochner het ons met ope arms ontvang, lekker saam met hom gaan wynproe in die berg. Die hele naweek was 'n fees, die rustigheid op die plaas, die mooi van die plaas, die veiligheid. Die kleintjie kon lekker op die groot grasperke speel en baljaar. Dit is uit die boeke uit. Lekkerste wyne wat beskikbaar is. Sal definitief weer daar gaan bly as gesin en as 'n groep. Baie dankie vir die gasvryheid Lochner en Ida.

Netjiese verblyf, beeldskone natuur en moderne gemak.

Wat 'n vreugde om so naby die hemel te kon vakansie hou. Die verblyf beskik oor al die geriewe wat jy nodig het, selfs WiFi bo in die berge. Die diens van Ida en haar man is ongelooflik. Hulle kommunikeer maklik en reageer vinnig op enige versoeke, soos die ruil van 'n gasbottel of navra oor loadshedding. Ons het die tyd ongelooflik baie geniet en beplan reeds nog 'n kuier in die lente. Sal defiinitief aanbeveel. Daar is 'n grondpad, maar kan gemaklik met 'n VW Polo by die plaas uitkom.

We enjoyed the time incredibly much and are already planning another visit in the spring. Would definitely recommend. There is a dirt road, but can reach the farm comfortably with a VW Polo.

Die huisie is toegerus met alles wat jy sal benodig vir selfsorg. Alles is skoon en die natuur is pragtig. Die bruin water van die fontein pla aanvanklik, maar na aan ons verduidelik is dat dit absoluut skoon is, kuier ons lekker.

Idyllic, tranquil and serene.

I kindly wanted to thank you for opening up your home to us over the weekend. My friend and I stayed over just one night but the moment we arrived, we immediately regretted not booking additional day(s) at Hermanuspietersfontein. It is so idyllic! Nestled between the mountains and trees - so much vastness. It was quiet and I realised that I have not heard "nothing" in a long time. I think life in the city sometimes gets so loud that we forget about the healing and peace the silence in nature can bring. . We checked in on Saturday morning. Our cottage was equipped with all the necessities - we didn't really need to bring anything extra. We had a braai for dinner underneath the stars. I cannot and will not forget how beautiful the night sky looked at that hour. It was load shedding and we decided to have a late dinner outside after stargazing. Stunning!. The next morning, we woke up to have breakfast outside and later sat on the grass looking at the animals before we checked out. (I have to add, the host invited us to check out later and we gladly accepted. ). Thank you, Ida and family. We will be back and I will be sure to recommend the accommodation to other people as well. Stay blessed.

Perfekte wegraak- en afsluithoekie op een van die mooiste plase!

Ons het twee 2-jariges en om 'n plek te vind wat veilig, ingerig, bekostigbaar en steeds spesiaal is is soms moeilik. Ons vier het die hele naweek onder die bome langs die huis vertoef, gespeel en behoorlik by mekaar gestop, sonder afleidings. Met die gerief van als tot ons beskikking en die gevoel van vryheid a.g.v. die oopte. Die stilte en aansig van die natuurskoon was presies wat ons nodig gehad het om af te sluit. Ons het behoorlik herlaai en was baie hartseer om te gaan. Sal dit vir enige jong gesin/paartjie aanbeveel wat uit die harwar van die elke-dag-bestaan wil ontsnap. Of, as mens as 'n paar gesinne al die eenhede bespreek en oor en weer kuier. Baie dankbaar hierdie skat word met die publiek gedeel! Jul sien ons definitief weer.

Perfect escape and closing corner on one of the most beautiful farms!

We have two 2 year olds and finding a place that is safe, furnished, affordable and still special is sometimes difficult. The four of us spent the whole weekend under the trees next to the house, playing and stopping properly with each other, without distractions. With the convenience of everything at our disposal and the feeling of freedom because the open. The silence and view of the scenery was exactly what we needed to wind down. We recharged properly and were very sad to leave. Would recommend to any young family/couple looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Or, if you book all the units as a couple of families and visit again and again. Very thankful this treasure is shared with the public! You will definitely see us again.

Delicious and very beautiful, quiet and peaceful environment.

It was delicious. Everything needed was there and in a very nice setting. Nice green grass with a large shade tree under which you can sit and relax. Friendly people. Will definitely visit again.

A wonderful, relaxed wine farm stay far from anywhere.

We stayed in the Stertswaai cottage. It has a wrap around patio which allows you to see the sunset, the mountains, and to sit out of the wind. It is a stunning location, far away from all the chaos. A small surprise is the colour of the farm water in the taps, but drinking water was supplied constantly. The wines were excellent. We were sad to leave and wished we had booked a longer stay. We will definitely return.

My recommendation would be to have a small gas heater available - the fireplace takes too long and the smoke blew into the cottage at times.

Gemaklik, stil, ontspannend.

Die verblyf is in 'n pragtig omgewing en toeganglik met 'n gewone kar. Verblyf is eenvoudig en basies soos wat ons dit wou hê. Genoeg, gratis hout was 'n bonus. Alles was skoon en netjies. Kwaliteit handdoeke en beddegoed was 'n bonus. Seep in die badkamer sou gaaf gewees het.

Ons het heerlik gekuier en Hermanuspieterfontein Cottages het ons verwagtinge oortref.

Die plaas is perfek geleë vir ons vereistes. Die fynbos is fantasties en die kliëntediens van die bestuurder en sy familie was uitstekend. Wynproe is ingesluit teen geen addisionele koste nie, dit word waardeer.

Lekkerste wegbreek in 'n lang tyd.

Hermanuspietersfontein Cottages is 'n pragtige, vreedsame bestemming. Die huisie is uitstekend toegerus met alles wat 'n mens gedurende 'n wegbreek sal benodig. Die binnebraai is die perfekte alternatief vir as die wind waai. Lochner en Ida is lieflike gashere en altyd beskikbaar.

Die weer was baie sleg, maar die binne-kaggelkuier was lekker.

Ons kon net een nag oorbly en met die slegte weer het ons min van die dinge gesien en ervaar. En dus moet ons terugkom. Wyn is heerlik en eienaars is baie vriendelik. Huisie het alles gehad wat nodig was (die stort water was dalk nie so warm nie, maar was ook nie so groot probleem nie). Besoekers moet verstaan dat uitry dorp toe vir kos en/of uiteet is 'n entjie se ry en moet dus beplan as daar 'n paar dae oor gebly gaan word.

The weather was very bad, but the indoor fireplace was nice.

We could only stay one night and with the bad weather we saw and experienced few of the things. And so we must come back. Wine is delicious and owners are very friendly. Cottage had everything needed (the shower water might not have been that hot, but wasn't that big of a problem either). Visitors must understand that driving out to town for food and/or eating out is a short drive and must therefore plan if there are going to be a few days left.

Peaceful farm stay at very good value for money.

Beautiful farm with lovely views of sheep grazing in front of the cottage. And it was lambing season so we were lucky to see many newly born lambs. Lots of places to walk or ride your bike. Very peaceful if you want to get away from it all. An added bonus is that there is both an indoor and outdoor braai, so you can braai whatever the weather may bring.

Rus en vrede vir jou siel.

Die ligging en panorama tesame met goeie weer het Hermanuspietersfontein die uitstekende wegbreekplek vir ons gesin gemaak. Behalwe die lekker kuier het ons so goed gerus dat selfs die hele huis eers na 08:00 die oggende ontwaak et. Vir ons was min beter as om 'n glasie Hermanuspietersfontein te geniet tussen die wingerde terwyl die kaggelvuur brand. Hierdie is definitief die plek vir 'n natuurliefhebber en boekleser.

The location and panorama together with good weather made Hermanuspietersfontein the perfect getaway for our family. Besides the nice visit, we rested so well that even the whole house doesn't wake up until after 08:00 in the morning. For us, little was better than enjoying a glass of Hermanuspietersfontein among the vineyards while the fireplace was burning. This is definitely the place for a nature lover and book reader.

Die ligging was hemel op aarde skoon lug en baie rustig.

Ons eerste aand was ons mees uitdagende aand. Ons het min blitz en 5 vuurhoutjies gehad om vuur mee te maak en gasstoof aan te steek. Maar gelukkig is ek 'n buitelugmens en kon die druk hanteer met baie genade. Ons het ook net een lamp gehad, die ander se flint was op. Maar alles behalwe dit was perfek. Die volgende oggend baie vroeg het hulle die blitz en vuurhoutjies besorg aan ons en ook toiletpapier. Die gashere is baie gaaf en hulle is altyd kontakbaar, niks is te veel vir hulle nie. Hulle sal ook moet ekstra batterye vir noodgevalle laat, want ons gyser se batterye het onklaar geraak maar ekt dit besef en die flitslig se battery dit mee vervang (dis dieselfde grootte). Ek dink hulle sal gaste moet inlig oor die batterye by die geyser. Maar ons het elke oomblik geniet.

The location was heaven on earth clean air and very peaceful.

Our first night was our most challenging night. We had little blitz and 5 matches to make a fire and light a gas stove. But luckily I'm an outdoorsy person and was able to handle the pressure with a lot of grace. We also only had one lamp, the other's flint was out. But everything but that was perfect. Very early the next morning they delivered the blitz and matches to us and also toilet paper. The hosts are very nice and they are always contactable, nothing is too much for them. They will also have to leave extra batteries for emergencies, because our gyser's batteries failed, but I realized that and replaced the flashlight's battery with it (it's the same size). I think they will have to inform guests about the batteries at the geyser. But we enjoyed every moment.

Saligheid vir jou siel. 'n Doen-dit-weer-en-weer ervaring gewees.

Vandat ons, ons bespreking bevestig het tot ons vertrek het ons net professionele diens ontvang. Dankie Ida en Lochner vir julle gasvryheid en dat julle, jul paradys deel met julle medemens. Ons was 'n groep van 16 en almal was ruimskoots geakkomodeer. Groot hoogtepunt van naweek was daai ekstra bederf-rit op teen die berg met heerlike gesellige wynproe op die dek. Goedheid en guns vir julle toekoms wens ons julle toe. Groete die Herberts, Besters, Nagels, Erasmus, Wambach's en Scherman's.

Big highlight of the weekend was that extra pampering ride up the mountain with delicious, cozy wine tasting on the deck. We wish you goodness and favor for your future.

The location is very remote with 20 km dirt road. This is not ideal for everyone especially those travelling in cars and not vehicles made for rougher terrain.

This is a beautiful location but very remote in its location and is not for everybody. This could be mentioned on the site. The accommodation we stayed at was very basic but clean. The water is brown and not drinkable. There are no cupboards to pack clothing into. Bathroom very basic no shelves. Generally a very nice stay but the price could be adjusted to accommodate the type of accommodation supplied.

A peaceful and stunning retreat from stressful day to day life. So many stars at night and a smoke free indoor fireplace to keep you warm and cosy. Our hosts really went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and safe on our excursions around the farm.

Heerlik rustig!

Dit was vir my heerlik om daar te kuier. Hermanus Pieters was my pa se oupagrootjie en my ouma het altyd vir ons sy storie vertel. Sy het vir ons vertel dat hy 'n onderwyser ook was en snaaks genoeg toe ek dit google se hulle niks daarvan nie! My ouma was Millicent Jane Pieters. Ek het so na my pa verlang. Ek wou so graag vir hom vertel! Die water het my ook verskriklik baie laat dink aan die plaas op Riviersonderend (Oubos) waar ons altyd gaan kuier het as kinders. Die water daar was ook so bruin. Maar ek dink dit was Groenewald-familie (my oupa was Jacobus Petrus Wessel Groenewald en so ook my pa). My pa het altyd vir ons vertel dat sy oupagrootjie by die ou hawe in Hermanus gaan visvang het. Hy het 'n sekere 'gat' gehad en as hy daar gooi, trek hy vis uit! My pa is op Lindeshof gebore. Ek is so spyt dat hy oorlede is en ek nie verder kan uitvra nie! Die interessantste van alles was dat 'n skoolvriendin my (nadat ek dit op Facebook geplaas het) laat weet het dat haar skoonma ook 'n agteragterkleinkind van Hermanus Pieters is! Dit was vir my heerlik daar en ons sal beslis weer daar kom bly!

Wonderfully peaceful!

It was wonderful for me to visit there. Hermanus Pieters was my father's great grandfather and my grandmother always told us his story. She told us that he was a teacher too and funnily enough when I googled it they said nothing about it! My grandmother was Millicent Jane Pieters. I longed for my father so much. I wanted to tell him so badly! The water also reminded me terribly of the farm on Riviersonderend (Oubos) where we used to visit as children. The water there was also so brown. But I think it was Groenewald family (my grandfather was Jacobus Petrus Wessel Groenewald and so was my father). My father always told us that his great grandfather went fishing at the old harbor in Hermanus. He had a certain 'hole' and when he casts there, he pulls out fish! My father was born at Lindeshof. I am so sorry that he passed away and I can't ask any more! The most interesting thing of all was that a school friend let me know (after I posted it on Facebook) that her mother-in-law is also a great-great-grandchild of Hermanus Pieters! It was wonderful for me there and we will definitely come and stay there again!

The cottage was perfectly stocked for a braai and we had everything we needed, including a delicious selection of wine (honesty bar). We can not fault anything. We can not wait to return one day.

Heerlike, rustige atmosfeer.

Dit is die 2de keer dat ons gebruik maak van die cottages. Dit is baie gerieflik en naby aan die trouvenue. Ons het heerlik gebly in Stertswaai. Die huis het als wat mens nodig het en meer. Ina was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal beslis die plek aanbeveel vir 'n gesin of 'n groep vriende saam, enige tyd van die jaar. Die kaggel het beslis gehelp met die heerlike reën wat buite geval het. Baie dankie Ina vir al jou moeite.

'n Kuierplek om naweek saam met vriende te vertoef, met 'n fantastiese uitsig.

HPF word bestuur deur wonderlike mense, wat altyd beskikbaar is om te help met enige iets wat vereis word. Die uitsig fantasties en mense kry definitief meer waarde vir geld by hierdie lieflike boerdery gastehuis.

Die plaas is pragtig, rustig, veilig en 'n lushof vir natuurliefhebbers.

Die verblyf is gerieflik en die huisies goed toegerus. Wat wel 'n waardevolle toevoeging sal wees, is hakke en hangers in al die slaapkamers sodat 'n mens darem jou klere kan ophang. Die gasheer en gasvrou is vriendelik, gasvry, behulpsaam en goed ingelig oor die omgewing. Ons het ons verblyf terdeë geniet. Net die plek vir 'n moeë stadsmens om lekker uit te rus.

I just think the shower could be upgraded?

Swartskaap is a cute romantic getaway for couples, but beware of the smoky indoor fireplace!

We liked almost everything about the little place, especially the enormous bed and sumptuous linen. But what spoiled things for us was that the indoor fireplace we were looking forward to drinking some of their lovely red wines around, smoked us out completely, so much so we couldn't see each other! And when we tried to open any of the three fanlight windows none of these worked properly either, so yes, a bit of a blight on an otherwise lovely little cottage.

Nice and basic.

If you are happy with a clean bed and shower you'll be happy here. Basic but nice cottage.

Breathtaking views combined with the quiet of simple country life.

The wine farm is breathtakingly beautiful, and it was difficult not to constantly whip out your camera to take pictures. Being from the city, the peace and quiet we experienced at this lovely cottage was just what we needed. The host, Ida, is an absolute delight. We were so sad to leave the farm and go back to the hustle and bustle of city life. This is truly a gem, and we can't wait to return for another stay!

We had an amazing time! The wine is also amazing!

We arrived to the most beautiful wine farm with amazing views. We were there for my wife's birthday and she was very happy with my surprise. The cottage we stayed in was absolutely perfect. The weather wasn't the best, but on the day it rained we sat inside and lit a fire and just relaxed. If you are going to have a day inside take a comfy camping chair as the sofa is a bit small for 2 people to lay on. On the Saturday we went into Stanford and went wine tasting and for lunch. The rest of the time we just relaxed at the amazing cottage. I would definitely stay here again!

Pragtige uitsigte, baie rustige atmosfeer en heerlike blyplek!

Ons het `n lieflike wegbreek gehad by die Posmeester. Die verblyf was presies wat beskryf was maar die uitsigte en rustigheid het alle verwagtinge oortref. Ons het heerlik ontspan en sal vir seker teruggaan. Baie dankie vir `n heerlike kuier.

Beeldskoon.

Uitstekend vir diegene wat wil wegbreek van die bedrywighede van die stad. Die natuurskoon is pragtig en die klank van skapies wat jou in die oggend groet is net wat 'n mens kort om te ontspan. Lekker braaigeriewe met baie hout. Ek sal wel volgende keer my bergfiets moet saambring om die roetes te verken!

Breathtaking.

Excellent for those who want to break away from the city. Natural scenery is beautiful and the sound of sheep in the mornings just what one needs to relax. Nice braai facilities with lots of wood. Would need to bring my mountain bike with me next time to explore the routes!

'n Wegbreek in 'n rustige, mooi en stil omgewing wat uitstekende waarde vir geld bied.

Huisies skoon, netjies, goed toegerus en geleë in 'n pragtige omgewing. Die regte plek om te kom ontspan en kop skoon te maak. Daar is hout vir braai en 'n 'honesty bar' om HPF wyne wat op 'n rak in die huisie is te koop. Bring jou bergfiets of jou draf- en stapskoene, jy kan lekker stap en trap in die omgewing. HPF cottages sien ons weer, die keer vir 'n hele paar dae.

A break away in a peaceful, beautiful and quiet environment that offers excellent value for money.

Cottages clean, tidy, well equipped and located in a beautiful environment. The right place to come and relax and clear your head. There is wood for braai and an 'honesty bar' to buy HPF wines which are on a shelf in the cottage. Bring your mountain bike or your running and walking shoes, you can enjoy walking and pedaling in the area. HPF cottages see us again, this time for several days.

Paradys in Sondagskloof.

Ongelooflike verblyf. Die stiltes is hemels, nie aldag wat jy skape hoor wy nie. Wonderlike uitsig oor die berge en Lochner en Ida is besonderse gashere.

Kos vir die siel!

Heerlike wegbreek weg van die stad, tussen die berge, windpompe en skape. Dis hier waar die siel gevoed word met plaaslewe en die natuur. Bergroetes met die mooiste uitsig van verskeie plase in die omgewing. Ons sal definitief weer hier kom rus.

Heerlik afgesonder en stil, vars lug en pragtig!

Plaas is pragtig! Ons het aan die Stanford MTB Tour deelgeneem wat toevallig deur die plaas gery het. Die cottage was perfek vir wat ons nodig gehad het. Al negatiewe kommentaar is dat dit baie ver grondpad is.Ek sou aanbeveel dat julle aan toekomstige kliënte waarskuwing stuur om alle kos/ drink voorraad saam te neem want dis baie ver vanaf enige winkels. Gelukkig was die boer en sy vrou baie gasvry en het ons voorsien van aandete Vrydag!

Lovely, isolated, quiet, fresh air and beautiful!

Beautiful farm! We competed in the MTB Tour and it was by chance that we drove through this farm. The cottage was perfect for us. The only critisism I have is that the gravel road is a bit long. They should perhaps inform clients to take all their food and drinks with them as shops are guite far. Luckily the farmer and his wife could help with supper on Friday!

Rustige verblyf in die natuur.

Huisie baie goed toegerus. Baie lekker sonder krag en selfoonseine. Het twee dae gebly maar met die rustigheid het dit gevoel soos 'n week. Al negatief is die grondpad tot by die huise.

Benodig aandag.

Aanwysings was nie korrek nie, ons moes die eienaar bel vir aanwysings. Gebruik dalk eerder bakens saam met die afstande om plaaspaaie te beskryf. Badkamer was vuil.

Needs attention.

Directions were not correct, we had to call the owner for directions. Perhaps instead use beacons along with the distances to describe farm roads. Bathroom was dirty.

Gerieflike onopgesmukte verblyf in 'n prentjiemooi omgewing.

Hierdie plekkie is die perfekte wegbreek bestemming vir mense wat uit die stad se gewoel wil ontsnap. Die huisie is goed toegerus met al die nodige dinge. Ons is deur ons gasheer op 'n besigtigingstoer geneem om die plaas uit alle hoeke te sien en was verras deur die gasvryheid en omgee. Die rustigheid en natuurskoon was net die regte lafenis om die woelige jaar mee af te sluit. Baie dankie ... ons kom weer!

Thanks... we'll come again!

Ons was 8 vriende wat oor 'n naweek daar gebly het. Ons het in Posmeester Cottage gebly, die huis is baie netjies en het voldoende geriewe. Dit is 'n baie rustige, beeldskone omgewing. Ek sal die verblyf enige tyd aanbeveel.
