Lovely peaceful overnight stay on the farm!
It was a lovely experience and I definitely recommend the countryside. As a farm kid it was heaven on earth for me.

A journey to the past.
If you want to sleep well and feel as if you are part of the history of South Africa, then this is the place for you. We were received wholeheartedly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. We were even able to make a quick visit to the museum and really enjoyed our stay.

Net oornag.

Just overnight.
The outside area is really neglected. No rubbish bin. Plugged in bed not plugged in. Couldn't move bed. Toilet seat fell off. Cobwebs in room. Definitely not worth the money. Maybe R250.

Outstanding!
Excellent service and hospitality. I chose this guest house because we got married 27 years ago on Onze Rust - hostess Jackie and husband Colin went out of their way to make the event and stay a pleasant and lasting memory. Colin's museum and exhibitions on the farm are an experience and definitely worth a visit, make sure you have enough time to spend here if war history is your passion. Like 27 years back on the day of our wedding, an evening and a morning that both my wife and I will not forget. Thank you Jackie and Colin for your effort and hospitality, we'll see each other again soon!

Pragtige omgewing naby N1 maar daar was geen formele "ontvangs" nie.

Translate to English.
Beautiful setting near N1 but there was no formal "reception".
We had to go look for the staff on the farm. The room was very neat and tastefully laid out but it was a double bed after I booked 2 single beds and the room did not have a bathroom, had to use the bathroom outside. Guests should also note that meals are not served and should prepare themselves accordingly.

Absolutely fantastic.
Jackie and old Anna made us feel so comfortable and at home. The house was spacious and has an incredible amount of history. We enjoyed every moment and didn't even miss TV or radio at all!

It was a pleasant, special, educational experience.
I would just like to point out some points that can only cause confusion on the ad. The rooms are advertised with showers. The farmhouse with the four rooms inside has only one bathroom with a bath (the shower is in the bath). The bathroom with the shower is outside the house. The beautiful swimming pool is on the adjacent farm which is about 4.4 km from the guest house, but the drive there is definitely worth it. It's an experience! Other than that, this stay is really worth it. The owners (Colin and Jackey are incredibly hospitable people and made our stay an unforgettable experience!). The war museum on the farm is a must see and Colin's knowledge that he shared with us was amazing. This was a wonderful visiting experience and my children also enjoyed it.

Ek is verheug as Leeuwberg gaste van die ou historiese plaashuis 1840 se atmosfeer en oornag geleentheid wil gebruik maak, en dit nog ook leersasm en geskik vind. Ons sien die geleentheid op hierdie stadium as uithelp vir gaste wat nie in die srad as sulks wil bly nie, en maklik en vinnig vanaf die N1 roete wil arriveer en vertrek op hul lang togte.
ń Rezevour op die koppie by Leeuwberg, is ń vervrissende swemgat geleentheid in die werklike warm maande van November tot Februarie wanneer diie hitte vir mens en dier moeilik uithoubaar word. Die onthaalplek en museums op Onze Rust en Leeuwberg verblyf en museums is dieselfde besigheid.
Onze Rust en Leeuwberg is 2, 8 km van mekaar maar eintlik net geskei deur die N1 snelweg. Elke plaas het verskillende geleenthede om te bied maar werk meeste van die tyd as ń eenheid met twee dele.
Die Leeuwberg plaashuis het 7 kamers met in totaal van 3 vol storte en 1 sitsbad met handstort. Daar is nog 2 storte geleenthede in beplanning asook die herwinning van die ou solder 1840.
Die ou huise is so ontwerp met min geriewe en die oggend en aandbeurte soos in die ou dae veroorsaak baie pret en interne reëlings sodat almal gehelp kan word.
Die museums en historiese staptoer, voëls kyk, is oulike tydverdryf vir die gaste.
Ons is maar basies besig met plaas projekte en verskaf
werk aan ons werkers. Dankie vir ons gaste se besprekings tot ons plaas projekte.

If you are looking for an interesting place to sleep, this is the one! Clean and tidy. Children really enjoyed walking around the war museum. Jackie is very hospitable, will definitely stay there again on the way back to Pretoria.

Comfortable
Everything is fine. Only two things that put me off: 1. Mosquito net smelled of dust 2. There was only coffee and no tea/rooibos tea.

Very disappointed.
Leeuwberg Gastehuis 's response
Jammer vir julle ongerief.
Die besprekings vir hout en die museum moet vooraf betaal word en ń spesifieke tyd moet vooraf vasgepen word. Die museum sleutel word deur die lisensie houer gehou en moet petsoonlik die toer gee.
Die hout word vooraf bespreek en vir die gas gekap.
Die projek is vir wetkers opleiding en is nog steeds in wording en ver van klasr. Dankie vir julle bydrae en word belangrik geag.

The guesthouse is another project in the making.
The power went out during our stay and we could not get hold of the hostess. We had to solve the problem ourselves.

Daar is deesdae baie verwarring met "loadshedding" kragonderbrekings en oorlading-uitskoppe op plase en oor die hele land. Dis jammer dat ek op daardie oomblik nie die foon gehoor of geantwoord het nie. Daar is gas in die kombuisie by die binnehof, binnebraai en kerse ook in die huis beskikbaar. Sal nou nog gaslampe, "Bushbaby"gasbraai by die huis byvoeg. Dankie vir die terugvoer. Ook ń kennisgewing daaroor aanbring.
Baie dankie vir jul bydrae tot die plaas projek.
