Wegbreek uit die stad.

Baie rustige area weg van die stad, in die bos en teen die rivier.

Old world charm, fascinating place with amazing gardens and wildlife.

Amazing place with incredible gardens. Feels super safe and is full of little magical corners you can get lost in. The accommodation is basic, clean, easy to find, and the host is friendly and very helpful. I would like to go back to experience this place again as one night was not enough. Totally recommend if you like the old world charm and magic of nature.

Gasvry ontvang, heerlik ontspan.

Ons het slegs een aand hier spandeer, tog is ons hartlik verwelkom en tuisgemaak. Ons was vry om die plek te verken, en al was party van die brûe oor die rivier ongelukkig beskadig, kon ons steeds oorgenoeg van die pragtige omgewing inneem. Die ablusieblok is skoon en netjies; verwag 'n spinnekop of drie, jy is immers in die middel van die bos! Die N4-Schoemanskloof-wisselaar is baie naby, so jy gaan die gesuis van verkeer heeltyd hoor. Vir ons was dit nie 'n hindernis nie.

Hospitably received, wonderfully relaxing.

We only spent one night here, yet we were warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. We were free to explore the place, and even though some of the bridges over the river were unfortunately damaged, we were still able to take in plenty of the beautiful surroundings. The ablution block is clean and tidy; expect a spider or three, you are in the middle of the woods after all! The N4-Schoemanskloof interchange is very close, so you will hear the hum of traffic all the time. For us it was not an obstacle.

Amazing hosts!

Our host met us at the gate and took us to our tented accommodation, which was better than we expected. Our host was amazing; she went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. The ablutions were comfortable and clean, and our tent was comfortable and clean. Bearing in mind that you are out in nature and it is not going to be spotless and perfect. I shared a tent with my daughter because we were doing the Elands half marathon the following day - the location was perfect for us. We did feel a bit vulnerable safety-wise because we could not lock ourselves in and kept valuables locked in the car, but other than that, the tent had everything we needed: cutlery and crockery, a kettle, a mini fridge, and enough plug points.

Rustig, natuurskoon, gerieflik.

Mens voel uitgerus na die besoek aan MH Gastehuis. Die mense is vriendelik en laat jou soos deel van die familie voel. Dit is rustig langs die water en hulle ken die area goed. Ons het die stap na die waterval ook baie geniet. Hulle gaan regtig uit hul pad uit om die verblyf so lekker en gerieflik as moontlik te maak vir hul gaste.

Quiet, scenic, comfortable.

One feels rested after the visit to MH Guest House. The people are friendly and make you feel like part of the family. It's quiet by the water and they know the area well. We also really enjoyed the walk to the waterfall. They really go out of their way to make the stay as pleasant and comfortable as possible for their guests.

Fantastiese avontuur.

Ons het heerlik gebly op die oord. Die gasvrou het ons onmiddelik tuis laat voel. Baie vriendelike diens. Die A-raam tente het alles wat mens benodig. Die oord se tuine is soos 'n prentjie uit 'n feë-verhaal. alles is net ongelooflik mooi. Die plek is netjies, skoon en veilig.

Baie lekker, rustig en pragtige plaas. Sal dit regtig aanbeveel vir jong kinders. Daar is perde, hase, vissies en volstruise. Die rivier is loopafstand en daar is baie staproetes. Naby aan Nelspruit en Panorama-roete. Elke oomblik was lekker.

Wonderlik, maar baie vuil.

Die ligging en die plaas is absoluut pragtig. Die tuine is ook goed instandgehou. Dis net vreeslik teleurstellend dat die eenheid waarin ons gebly het vuil en vol spinnerakke was. Die kombuis was uiters vuil, asook die yskas was nog vol krummels en goed van vorige gaste. Die kombuis was swak toegerus met bitter min goed, maar dit word geadverteer as self catering. Die bank in die sitkamer is gebreek. As die instandhouding en netheid in die wooneenhede so goed was soos die buitekant, sal dit uitstekende verblyf wees. Ons sal nie weer daar oornag nie. Veral in Covid-tyd voel mens vir seker nie veilig indien 'n plek so vuil is nie. Toe ons met uitgaan dit onder die ontvangs se aandag gebring het, was die antwoord net "ai tog". Nie 'n verskoning of enigsins 'n verrassing nie, so hul is seker gewoond daaraan. Dis jammer, want die ligging is ongelooflik!

Wonderful, but very dirty.

The location and the farm are absolutely beautiful. The gardens are also well maintained. It's just terribly disappointing that the unit we stayed in was dirty and full of cobwebs. The kitchen was extremely dirty, and the fridge was still full of crumbs and things from previous guests. The kitchen was poorly equipped with very few things, but it is advertised as self catering. The couch in the living room is broken. If the maintenance and cleanliness in the units was as good as the exterior, it would be excellent accommodation. We will not stay there again. Especially in Covid times, one certainly does not feel safe if a place is so dirty. When we brought it to the reception's attention on leaving, the answer was just "oh well". Not an excuse or a surprise at all, so they're probably used to it. It's a shame because the location is amazing!

The beds and bathrooms are in an open-plan set up, no privacy and only 1 window. Toilet and shower on the other flat had water coming up and blocked. The other flat had no bedding. There was no extra blankets for cold nights. The rooms were dusty and very uncomfortable.

The area is beautiful and the farm itself. The setup and decorations has to be redone.

Marvellous and adventurous.

We got a warm welcome, even extended our stay. Can you please put bar fridges in adults' rooms. That would be nice.

Absoluut 'n wonderlike verblyf-ervaring.

Asemrowende natuurskoon. Net wat ons nodig gehad het. Ablusieblok was te alle tye skoon en netjies. Het te alle tye veilig gevoel. Ons was selfs voorsien van genoegsame braaihout. Eienaars Martin, Annalize en natuurlik Quintin was die vriendelikheid van self. Jul het beslis 'n stukkie paradys hier. Kan nie wag om dit in die somer te sien nie.

Absolutely a wonderful stay experience.

Breathtaking scenery. Just what we needed. Ablution block was clean and tidy at all times. Felt safe at all times. We were even provided with enough braai wood. Owners Martin, Annalize and of course Quintin were the kindness of themselves. You definitely have a piece of paradise here. Can't wait to see it in the summer.

Dit was baie rustig maar die badkamers was onvoldoende.

Die kampeerplekke was mooi in die skadu langs die rivier. Daar was geen elektriese punte nie en geen waterkrane by die kampeerplekke nie. Die badkamers was verouderd en daar was geen opwasplek nie. Kampeerders moet goed ingerig wees om hier te kamp.

It was very peaceful but the bathrooms were inadequate.

The campsites were nicely in the shade along the river. There were no electrical points and no water taps at the campsites. The bathrooms were outdated and there was no sink. Campers must be well-equipped to camp here.

Ons het nie formele kamp/tent staanplekke nie en daar is nie elektriese punte nie, maar, sou iemand belangstel en vra, dan reël ons na die beste wat ons kan, onderworpe aan deelkrag en beskikbaarheid van verlengingskoorde.
Ja, kampeerders {tent / woonwa} moet goed ingerig wees en van egte bos-kamp hou. ☺
Die badkamers se voorkoms van buite is spesiaal "verouderd" om in te pas by die bos-idee.
Hoop dit verduidelik bietjie?
Ons vra om verskoning vir enige misverstand.

Vriendelike personeel met goeie geriewe in 'n skoon omgewing.

Die omgewing waarin die lodge geleë is, is baie boomryk met groen tuine en baie spasie om te loop. Die kamer is groot en gerieflik toegerus. Die personeel was vriendelik en het ons welkom laat voel. Dit was baie aangenaam om daar te oornag.

Friendly staff with good facilities in a clean environment.

The area in which the lodge is located is very tree-lined with green gardens and plenty of space to walk. The room is large and comfortably equipped. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcome. It was very pleasant to spend the night there.

Interesting, but I won't recommend it.

The room is not as it appears on the website: single bed and very sparse. Linen was clean but tired and room needs a lick of paint and some brightening up. There are very annoying peacocks that call from about 2:30 am and the room was close to the very busy, heavy truck traffic road. Truck noise started around 4 am and as there is a T-junction close by, exhaust brakes from the trucks can be very load. If my family had been with me, we would not have stayed.

Montrose River Lodge 's response

Thank you for your very constructive and valid feedback.
The lodge is under new management and the upgrade began a couple of weeks ago - we know you'll see the difference should you visit us again.
With regards location, all our information on travel sites will be updated to include the wildlife noise and the fact that we are situated on the corner of the R539 (Schoemanskloof Road) and the N4. We're looking into ways to mask the road noise heard in 2 of our rooms. Martin's Haven does have other rooms on offer.
Our website will be updated soon. Once we have completed our upgrade, we'll be able to upload current photos.

Vreeslike lekker verblyf. Heerlike kos. Gasvryheid wat mens laat voel asof jy 'n ou vriend is wat huis toe kom.
