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.

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!

Great family weekend.
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.

The little one could play and frolic on the large lawns. It's off the books. Finest wines available. Will definitely stay there again as a family and as a group. Thank you very much for the hospitality Lochner and Ida.

What a joy to be able to vacation so close to heaven. The accommodation has all the facilities you need, even WiFi up in the mountains. The service of Ida and her husband is incredible. They communicate easily and respond quickly to any requests, such as exchanging a gas bottle or inquiring about loadshedding. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Lovely, peaceful atmosphere.
This is the 2nd time we have used the cottages. It is very convenient and close to the wedding venue. We had a wonderful stay in Stertswaai. The house has everything you need and more. Ina was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend the place for a family or a group of friends together, any time of the year. The fireplace definitely helped with the lovely rain that fell outside. Thank you very much Ina for all your effort.

Our extended family went to celebrate Grandpa's 78th birthday. It was wonderful to be able to stay there in nature, with enough luxuries to properly enjoy the visit. The bedding is really lovely and clean and quality! We could just sit and visit, we could walk, we could barbecue. We enjoyed it tremendously!

The accommodation is comfortable and the cottages well equipped. What would be a valuable addition are hooks and hangers in all the bedrooms so that one can at least hang one's clothes. The host and hostess are friendly, hospitable, helpful and well informed about the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just the place for a tired city person to rest.

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.

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!
