Happy stay in a beautifully remodelled farmhouse. The huge established garden was a delight. Our 2 dogs were in heaven.

Beautiful home with stylish modern touches. Work of many local artists on the walls. Very well kitted. Lovely garden. Dams create a wetland with huge variety of birds. Great getaway with teens (DStv + Wi-Fi) and furry friends. Road from Jhb was good - advise taking N4, then R540 from Belfast through Dullstroom to Lydenburg. Leaves you with 8 km of dirt (district) road in reasonable condition and ~4 km of R36 (potholes) to Manzi Mhlope. We will be back!

Baie rustig. Baie lekker.

Pragtige ou plaashuis met lekker groot erf vir kinders om te speel. Die rustigheid is fantasties. Daar was tot 'n TV en DStv om die rugby te kan kyk. Ysmasjien was altyd vol. Die pad en trokke soontoe is die enigste negatiewe punt, maar selfs dit sal my nie keer om weer te gaan nie.

Very calm. Very nice.

Beautiful old farmhouse with nice big yard for children to play. The tranquility is fantastic. There was even a TV and DStv to be able to watch the rugby. Ice machine was always full. The road and trucks to get there are the only negative point, but even that wouldn't stop me from going again.

Baie lekker en rustig.

Die verblyf was lekker. Die huis is goed toegerus. Dit lyk asof daar 'n nuwe oond is, ek kon nie uitvind hoe die instellings presies werk nie. Die braai-area kan doen met meer beligting. Huishulp is beslis 'n bonus.

Very nice and peaceful.

The stay was nice. The house is well equipped. It looks like there is a new oven, I haven't been able to figure out how the settings work exactly. The braai area could do with more lighting. Domestic help is definitely a bonus.

Baie modern en netjies.

Ons het 'n kickboxing toernooi in Lydenburg gehad. Ligging van verblyf is net 15 min weg. Al wat sleg is, is dat die R36 pad horrible is want hulle is tans besig om die pad oor te doen. Ek hoop regtig nie dat die pad Manzi Mhlope sleg beïnvloed nie, want dis werklik 'n pragtige plek. Als nuut oorgedoen, baie spasie en netjies. Ons sal definitief weer daar oornag as ons weer in die gebied is.

Very modern and neat.

We had a kickboxing tournament in Lydenburg. Location of accommodation is only 15 min away. All that is bad is that the R36 road is horrible because they are currently redoing the road. I really hope the road doesn't affect Manzi Mhlope badly because it really is a beautiful place. Redone like new, lots of space and tidy. We will definitely stay there again if we are in the area again.

Rustig en ontspannend.

Dit was 'n wonderlike rus naweek. Die ou plaashuis met die dik mure bly koel ten spyte van die hitte buite. Die kombuis is modern en die res van die huis het 'n keurige afwerking met mooi meubels en skilderye. Die pad van Lydenburg af is baie sleg met baie slaggate en die ingang na die plaas is skerp af soos wat die groot vragmotors die grond langs die kant van die teer uitgetrap het. Dit is die enigste negatief van die hele naweek.

Peaceful and relaxing.

It was a wonderful rest weekend. The old farmhouse with the thick walls stays cool despite the heat outside. The kitchen is modern and the rest of the house has an exquisite finish with nice furniture and paintings. The road from Lydenburg is very bad with many potholes and the entrance to the farm is steep as the big trucks have trampled the soil along the side of the tar. This is the only negative of the entire weekend.

Lieflike plaashuis en atmosfeer!

Sal definitief aanbeveel. Vir die prys sal jy nie beter kry nie. Alles was netjies, mooi en skoon. Die enigste negatiewe punt is die pad uit na die plaas toe. Maar sal dit weer waag en daar gaan bly!

Lovely farmhouse and atmosphere!

Will definitely recommend. For the price you won't find better. Everything was neat, beautiful and clean. The only negative point is the road out to the farm. But would risk it again and stay there!

Absolutely beautiful surroundings, peaceful and a friendly donkey - I love animals.

This was well worth the price. The place is beautiful inside and out. There were monkeys, the garden was beautiful, the bedding was spotless, everything about Manzi Mhlope was worth the trip. We will definitely visit there again!

Peaceful and relaxing.

Had a wonderful time with my family visiting at Manzi Mhlope. Would definitely recommend it to anyone. While the kitchen was my mother's favourite place, the garden was mine.

Waarde vir geld, goed toegerus, langs 'n nagmerriepad.

Manzi Mhlope is uitstekende waarde vir geld vir 'n groter groep. Al die beddens is enkel wat ons goed gepas het en die huis is goed toegerus. Daar is ook 'n heerlike braai-area. Sara is 'n engel en sy kom maak 'n paar keer per dag skoon. Daar is goeie selfoonsein en data buite die huis en in die eetkamer, maar die dik mure belemmer die opvangs elders in die huis. Op die eerste dag daar was die krag tussen 12 en 6 nm af. Volgens Sara gebeur dit daagliks, maar ons was nie daar om dit te beleef nie. Ek moet egter toekomstige besoekers waarsku oor die slegte toestand van die R36 waarlangs die huis geleë is. Dit is vir seker die slegste pad waarop ek nog ooit gery het, vol vragmotors en moet beslis nie na donker aangedurf word nie. Die grondpad van Dullstroom se kant af is veel beter en heel begaanbaar.

Value for money, well equipped, off a nightmare road.

Manzi Mhlope is excellent value for money for a larger group. All the beds are single which suited us well and the house is well equipped. There is also a delicious braai area. Sara is an angel and she comes to clean several times a day. There is good cell phone signal and data outside the house and in the dining room, but the thick walls impede reception elsewhere in the house. On the first day there the power was off between 12 and 6 pm. According to Sara, this happens daily, but we were not there to experience it. However, I must warn future visitors about the poor condition of the R36 along which the house is located. It is probably the worst road I have ever driven on, full of trucks and definitely not to be ventured after dark. The dirt road from Dullstroom's side is much better and quite passable.

Rustige plaasvakansie met al die moderne geriewe.

Manzi Mhlope het die mooiste tuin en die plaashuis is stylvol gerestoureer met 'n pragtige kombuis en nuwe badkamers. Ons het baie lekker gekuier voor die kaggeloond toe dit reën en ook lekker gebraai by die vuurput terwyl ons sterre kyk. Alles is mooi skoon en die diens is voortreflik. In Suid-Afrika is ons almal bang om op 'n plaas te gaan bly, maar die eienaar het moeite gedoen met die veiligheid. Die ingang is bietjie versteek, maar met goeie instruksies kom mens gou daar uit. Lydenburg en Dullstroom is regtig naby as mens wil gaan rondry. Sal graag weer wil gaan, want dit is regtig waarde vir geld!

Peaceful farm holiday with all the modern amenities.

Manzi Mhlope has the most beautiful garden and the farmhouse has been stylishly restored with a beautiful kitchen and new bathrooms. We had a great time in front of the fireplace when it rained and also had a nice barbecue by the fire pit while watching the stars. Everything is nice and clean and the service is excellent. In South Africa we are all afraid to stay on a farm, but the owner has made an effort with safety. The entrance is a bit hidden, but with good instructions you will soon get there. Lydenburg and Dullstroom are really close if you want to drive around. Would love to go again as it really is value for money!

Heerlike, rustige wegbreek.

Dis 'n heerlike, rustige omgewing. Die selfoonsein is redelik, maar swak genoeg sodat tieners ander maniere van vermaak moet opsoek - baie dankie! Sara se diens is baie goed en die huis is baie netjies en skoon. Topklas toebehore in kombuis! Oor die algemeen 'n goeie ondervinding. Baie dankie, Robin!

Lovely, peaceful getaway.

It's a lovely, peaceful environment. The cellphone signal is reasonable, but weak enough for teens to seek out other ways of entertainment - thank you very much! Sara's service is very good and the house is very neat and clean. Top class kitchen accessories! Overall a good experience. Thanks so much, Robin!
