We enjoyed our stay but thought there could have been towels and extra blankets.

L'Abondant Vinge is a very pretty place. The house was a bit smaller than we were expecting as we were with our daughter and son-in-law - it is suitable for people with small children. We were a bit taken aback by there being no towels and having to bring blankets.

can't lie. What you see on the web is exactly what you get.
A queen bed and 2 single beds in the lift as per pictures.
A huge bathroom, comfortable lounge area with good space for 4 people.
Huge outside seating area.
We offer self-catering accommodation which your own towels and toiletries; however, we do supply toilet paper and cleaning materials for washing dishes.

Peace and tranquility.

A gem of a place! Beautiful surroundings! The owner (Johan) was very friendly and made us feel welcome, nothing was too much trouble for him. Will definitely be going back. Less than an hour's drive from Pretoria, definitely worth the travel and every cent!

Gemengde gevoelens.

Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang in hierdie lieflike omgewing. Die rivier se geruis, veldblom- en grasweiveld, voëlsang en rustige plaasomgewing sorg vir ongeëwenaarde rus. Die matras het gesorg vir 'n gerieflike nagrus. Ek wil graag egter 'n paar opmerkings maak wat sal bydrae tot 'n aangenamer ervaring veral in 'n rustieke huisie. Daar is nie voldoende beligting met die beskikbare, herlaaibare lampe nie. Dit maak dit moeilik om kos voor te berei en ook om te lees. Die klein lampies by die bed en die badkamer is regtig swak en geen van die lampe was met ons aankoms behoorlik gelaai nie. Noodsaaklik met die alewige loadshedding. Die gat in die deur, veroorsaak deur 'n bedtafeltjie waarvoor daar nie genoeg ruimte is nie, is onverskoonbaar. Beter gehalte bedlinne is 'n luukse wat saam net die prys kom. Die stortgordyne is heeltemal te kort en gevolglik is die badkamervloer altyd nat. Die voordeur kan nie behoorlik sluit nie en dit het my onveilig laat voel. Ons het die tyd geniet maar voel dat indien aandag aan bogenoemde gegee kan word dit wonderlik sal wees.

Mixed feelings.

We were very kindly received in this lovely environment. The murmur of the river, wild flower and grass meadows, birdsong and peaceful farm environment provide unparalleled rest. The mattress ensured a comfortable night's rest. However, I would like to make a few comments that will contribute to a more pleasant experience, especially in a rustic cottage. There is insufficient lighting with the available rechargeable lamps. This makes it difficult to prepare food and also to read. The small lamps by the bed and the bathroom are really weak and none of the lamps were properly charged when we arrived. Necessary with the ever-present loadshedding. The hole in the door, caused by a bedside table for which there is not enough space, is inexcusable. Better quality bed linen is a luxury that comes with only the price. The shower curtains are way too short and as a result the bathroom floor is always wet. The front door does not lock properly and it made me feel unsafe. We enjoyed the time but feel that if attention could be paid to the above it would be great.

Dankie vir die terugvoer ons sal verseker aandag gee aan al die bgogenoemde klagtes.
Wat ek wel wil noem is dat die deur defnitief kan sluit. Die ligte in die badkamer en by die bed werk met batterye en kon dalk pap geraak het. Daar is spaar battery in die mandjie op die tafel.
Bogenoemde probleme kon maklik uitgesorteer gewees het as julle met my gepraat het. Ek was elke dag beskikbaar.
Groete,

Rustig, ongekunsteld, net ontspan.

Mooi omgewing, vriendelike mense (en diere). Onthou jou eie handdoek. Ook kerse vir lekker atmosfeer. So koud soos mens kan verwag van Heidelberg in die winter, maar mens kuier lekker om die stofie wat die kliphuisie lekker kan verwarm.

Calm, unfussy, just relax.

Beautiful surroundings, friendly people (and animals). Remember your own towel. Also candles for a nice atmosphere. As cold as you can expect from Heidelberg in the winter, but you have a good time around the stove that warms the stone house nicely.

We had a great time, the cottage is beautiful and we so enjoyed visiting the farm and the animals each day.

We went for long walks and enjoyed the peaceful river and quiet. Thanks so much for having us, we'll be back when it warms up a bit.

Verkwikkend vir die siel.

Die gedruis van die rivier, die pragtige uitsig, die knetter van die kaggel werk alles saam vir 'n baie spesiale wegkom. Die perfekte plek vir 'n huweliksherdenking.

Invigorating for the soul.

The sound of the river, the beautiful view, the crackle of the fireplace all work together for a very special getaway. The perfect place for a wedding anniversary.

Dit is pragtig, rustig en regtig spesiaal!

Die cottages is in die mooiste omgewing geleë - dit is sprokiesmooi. Dit is toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het, en is gerieflik en skoon. Die eienaar is gasvry en baie hulpvaardig. Daar is absoluut niks waaroor mens nie positief of beïndruk kan wees nie. Saans lê jy en luister na die rivier wat regs langs die huisie verbyloop, regtig spesiaal.

It is beautiful, peaceful and really special!

The cottages are located in the most beautiful surroundings - it is fairytale beautiful. It is equipped with everything you need, and is comfortable and clean. The owner is hospitable and very helpful. There is absolutely nothing one cannot be positive or impressed about. In the evening you lie and listen to the river that passes right by the house, really special.

Flippen koud, maar wat 'n lekker rough and ready experience.

Ons sal definitief weer gaan, as jy op MTN is, daar is bitter min sein! Maar jy soek nie fone, tablette of enige ander gadgets hier nie! Ongerepte natuurskoon, 'n goeie heerlike ondervinding. As jy van kamp tipe ekspedisies hou, maar lugtig is vir 'n tent of gevoelig is vir veiligheidsrisiko's, dan is hierdie die ideale plek om te wees. Dit is net sowat 20 kilometer in Heidelberg toe en baie maklik en vinnig bereikbaar uit beide Pretoria en Johannesburg omgewing uit!

Crazy cold, but what a nice rough and ready experience.

We will definitely go again, if you are on MTN, there is very little signal! But you're not looking for phones, tablets or any other gadgets here! Unspoiled natural beauty, a good delightful experience. If you like camping type expeditions, but are airy of a tent or sensitive to safety risks, then this is the ideal place to be. It is only about 20 kilometers from Heidelberg and very easily and quickly accessible from both Pretoria and Johannesburg area!

Just good.

We had a very pleasant stay in the cottage. The house was clean and neat. The owner communicated well about the time of arrival and gave us directions how to get there. Kind and friendly.

Thoroughly peaceful!

The sound of the river was all that we heard over our 3 day stay - the location is thoroughly peaceful and relaxing! The accommodation is more than comfortable and very clean. The stone cottage allows for a cool experience even in the hot summer months. The view from the patio is of a gorgeous landscape and river and there is abundant birdlife. Lovely places to walk on the farm and very hospitable owners. Will definitely be returning soon (hopefully in winter to experience the gorgeous open fireplace!).
