Kuier was heerlik. Lekker stoep. Die dam so naby aan die huis is wonderlik.

Als was skoon en netjies. Aandag aan detail was opvallend. Reënboog en bruin forelle gevang. Bo gemiddelde grootte forelle. Ons hond het dit ook baie geniet. Lekker gestap. Mooi troppe blesbokke.

Visit was wonderful. Nice porch. The pond so close to the house is wonderful.

Als was clean and tidy. Attention to detail was striking. Rainbow and brown trout caught. Above average size trout. Our dog really enjoyed it too. Nice walk. Beautiful herds of bald goats.

Wonderlike plek, met alles wat jy nodig het.

Ons het 'n ongelooflik lekker naweek gehad by Highveld Trout Lodge. Die huis is volledig toegerus met alles wat jy kan nodig hê. Dis netjies en skoon. Dit lyk regtig nes die prentjies en die gashere het goed gekommunikeer en inligting deur gegee. Ons sal beslis weer gaan kuier.

Dit was absoluut awesome, 'n plek wat lyk soos hy adverteer word.

Dit was absoluut awesome. Alles is skoon en netjies. Stilte dag en nag dit is absoluut waarvoor ons gegaan het. Die wors honde het hulle ook self gate uit geniet. Die dam reg voor die eenheid bring net rustigheid oor mens se siel. Ons het lekker gestap, op die paddle ski's geroei, nou en dan 'n dip in die dam moes vang, wat maar net 'n balansprobleem was. Die geroep van jakkalse in die verte net na skemer en die sterre in die donker nag wat weerkaats op die dam is iets wat mens nie in die dorp sien of hoor nie. Dit was regtig vir my en as ek na die kommentaar van ouma en familie luister een van die beste mooiste plekke waar ons nog oor 'n Desember vakansie was. Ons het ook fantastiese weer gehad. Jo-Marie was ook net 'n WhatsApp-boodskap ver en as mens iets vra is daar dadelik aandag aan gegee.

It was absolutely awesome, a place that looks like it is advertised.

It was absolutely awesome. Everything is clean and tidy. Quiet day and night that's absolutely what we went for. The sausage dogs also enjoyed themselves. The pond right in front of the unit just brings peace to one's soul. We had a nice walk, rowed on the paddle skis, now and then had to take a dip in the pond, which was just a balance problem. The cry of foxes in the distance just after dusk and the stars in the dark night reflecting on the pond is something you don't see or hear in the town. It really was for me and if I listen to the comments of grandma and family one of the best beautiful places we have ever been on a December holiday. We also had fantastic weather. Jo-Marie was also just a WhatsApp message away and if you asked something, it was attended to immediately.

Ja, baie lekker gebly. Lekker ruim, gerieflik op die water. Kan vroeg oggend koffie op die stoep geniet terwyl jy die vissermanne dophou.

Yes, very nice stay. Nice and spacious, comfortable on the water. Can enjoy early morning coffee on the porch while watching the fishermen.

Gerieflik en rustig.

Ons het die tydjie by Highveld Trout Lodge baie geniet. Die eenheid is goed toegerus, gerieflik en daar is genoeg plek vir 'n groot gesin en kinders. Die eenheid kan wel doen met 'n goeie 'springclean'. Daaglikse skoonmaakdienste word geadverteer, maar is nie ingesluit nie en ek moes vra wanneer die skoonmaker inkom. Daar is gesê dat die eenheid selfonderhoudend is en skoonmaak slegs op aanvraag is. Daar is gereeld vir ons gesê 'hierdie is die platteland' nadat ons probleme met water gehad het. Die eienaar en plaasbestuurder was wel hulpvaardig om die probleem op te los. Behalwe vir die paar probleme het ons baie lekker gebly en die manne het lekker vis gevang. Sal Highveld Trout Lodge aanbeveel.

Comfortable and peaceful.

We really enjoyed our time at Highveld Trout Lodge. The unit is well equipped, comfortable and there is enough space for a large family and children. The unit could do with a good spring clean. Daily cleaning services are advertised but not included and I had to ask when the cleaner comes in. The unit is said to be self-catering and cleaning is on request only. We were often told 'this is the countryside' after we had problems with water. The owner and farm manager were helpful in solving the problem. Apart from the few problems, we had a very nice stay and the men caught good fish. Would recommend Highveld Trout Lodge.

Uitstekende wegbreekplekkie. Ons het baie lekker gekuier.

Heerlik gebly by Highveld Trout Lodge. Die plek is netjies en goed toegerus. Ons het lekker gekuier binne by die kaggel en buite langs die dam. Lekker gestap op die plaas en die gereelde inloer deur die boerbokke geniet. My honde het dit ook baie geniet.

Excellent getaway spot. We had a great time.

Great stay at Highveld Trout Lodge. The place is neat and well equipped. We had a great time inside by the fireplace and outside by the pond. Have a nice walk on the farm and enjoy the frequent visits by the Boer goats. My dogs really enjoyed it too.

Dit was amazing, verwagtinge oortref.

Ons was 2 gesinne wat kom ontspan en visvang het, die huis se opset en uiteensetting was great, badkamers modern en netjies, stoep gesellig. Visvang was moeilik (wind baie erg gewaai), maar bevredigend, het net nie bass in die foreldam verwag nie (nie 'n probleem nie). Sal definitief weer gaan kuier.

It was amazing, exceeded expectations.

We were 2 families who came to relax and fish, the layout and layout of the house was great, bathrooms modern and tidy, veranda cosy. Fishing was tough (wind blowing very bad) but satisfactory, just didn't expect bass in the trout pond (not a problem). Will definitely visit again.

Undiscovered gem.

What a place! Great fishing literally from the stoep. Well, stocked dam with good size fish. The house has everything you need. It's also nice to go to a venue where you are the only guests on the farm. Good communication from the owners. Go and give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

Uitstekend. Gerieflik. Baie mooi.

Baie lekker gebly. Fantastiese uitkyk vanaf die huis oor die dam en plaas. Huis was baie skoon, en baie goed uitgerig. Die honde het ook die plek, en vryheid geniet. Staproete ook baie lekker en gemaklik. Sal verseker dit aanraai vir ander, en sal verseker weer gaan.

One of the best places we have ever stayed at!

The setting, tranquility, and stoep from which to enjoy the view were just magic. And the house spoils you with a sense of luxury. The hosts are very helpful and kind.
