Wonderlik, pragtig, klein paradys en idilliese tuiste.

Ons was baie bly om hierdie spesiale plek te besoek. Alles was perfek! Die Guineafowl kamer is so romanties, soos wittebrood. Baie dankie Liz en Gerald, honde Milly, Sparky. Dis lekker!

Pragtige blyplek en omgewing en spesiale, gasvrye mense.

Ons was aangenaam verras met ons blyplek. So mooi soos iets wat mens by 'n 5-ster lodge sal kry. Daar is vir elke behoefte voorsiening gemaak van muskietweermiddel tot vuurhoutjies sou jy 'n kers wil aansteek. Nie dat beurtkrag hier 'n probleem is nie, Hillside is heeltemal selfonderhoudend en nie afhanklik van Eskom-krag nie. Ons het heerlik op die stoep gekuier en uitgekyk op die pragtige omgewing. Die ontbyt, met regte plaaseiers (met vergunning van die 8-jarige kleinseun), was net wat ons nodig gehad het voor ons die dag aangepak het. Woorde doen nie regtig reg aan Hillside nie, kom kyk vir jouself. Dankie vir julle gasvryheid.

Beautiful place to stay and surroundings and special, hospitable people.

We were pleasantly surprised with our accommodation. As beautiful as something you would find at a 5-star lodge. Every need was catered for from mosquito repellent to matches if you wanted to light a candle. Not that load shedding is a problem here, Hillside is completely self-sustaining and not dependent on Eskom power. We had a lovely time on the stoep and looked out on the beautiful surroundings. The breakfast, with real farm eggs (courtesy of the 8 year old grandson), was just what we needed before we started the day. Words don't really do Hillside justice, come and see for yourself. Thank you for your hospitality.

Ideale verblyf om paar dae oor te bly.

Rustige plaasatmosfeer met mooi natuurskoon. Eienaars baie gasvry en gee persoonlike aandag en diens. Eenhede nuut en modern toegerus en geen beurtkrag (off the grid). Sterk aan te beveel.

Netjies, alles wat mens nodig het, hou van die plaasatmosfeer.

Ons het vir een nag hier oorgebly. Ietwat ver van die N2, maar oorspronklik was dit 'n aangename ondervinding.

Wonderlike, mooi plaas met baie spasie na 'n lang rit in die kar.

Liz het ons baie vriendelik verwelkom en uit haar pad gegaan om als vir ons so gemaklik as moontlik te maak. Selfs 'n braai en hout gereed gehad op versoek van ons dat ons graag wou braai. Die ontbyt was 10 uit 10.

Pragtige plaas met baie spasie om te stap.

Liz en haar man het baie moeite gedoen om ons tydjie op hul plaas spesiaal te maak. Ons het heerlik gestap en geniet van die rustigheid. Naby aan N2, dus ideaal vir oornag stop op reis na noordkus.

Dit is 'n uitstekende oornag fasiliteit. Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang en die eienaars het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel. Die ontbyt kom uit gasvrou se kombuis en alles was tuis gemaak of gebak.

Pragtig en rustig ... Groot bederf!

Dit is een van die rustigste en mooiste plekke waar ek in 'n lang tyd was. Die gasvryheid van die eienaars het ons dadelik welkom laat voel. Die eenheid waar ons tuisgegaan het spreek van baie goeie smaak. Dit was werklik heerlik om vir 2 dae in hierdie luukse en mooi eenheid te kon kuier en slaap. Ons is bederf met 'n heerlike ontbyt en die Sondag was ons huweliksherdenking en is ons by ons eenheid met die heerlikste ontbyt bedien, sjampanje en rooi rose. Aan Liz en haar gesin. Dankie vir julle vriendelikheid. Ek beveel Hillside Farm Bed & Breakfast beslis aan!
