Ons en die honde het die stap in die berg en die dam baie geniet.

Fantastiese ligging en pragtige uitsig.

Dit is baie mooi en afgesonderd hier.

Dit was baie koud, maar vir 'n plek sonder elektrisiteit het hulle oulike planne gemaak.

It is very beautiful and secluded here.

It was very cold, but for a place without electricity, they made cute plans.

Private cabin at the dam.

Enjoyed the cabin and the dam with our spoilt dogs. Long walks along the dam and up the mountains (for the fit) with great views and some game to be seen. Jackals remind you of them at night while keeping warm inside at the fireplace.

Not the first time we stayed and definitely not the last.

Very nice spot to be part of nature. Beautiful dam. All the basics one needs are available. Nice stopover from Gauteng to KZN.

Peaceful, inviting, rustic.

We loved our short stay at Mountain Rest. Sadly we arrived late and had to leave early, but the beds were comfortable and everything was spotless. They gladly catered for our pets, for which we were very grateful. Would love to go back and spend more time. The lake and environment were spectacular.

Dit was die perfekte wegbreek.

Ons kon nie vir meer gevra het nie. Dit is die mooiste omgewing en perfek vir enige iemand wat wil wegbreek vanaf die stad. Die huisie was perfek en die bederfies nog meer. Sal definitief weer teruggaan.

Fantasties, rustig en pragtig.

Wow, wow, ons het 'n wonderlike naweek geniet. Die huisie is ingerig met alles wat jy nodig het, die uitsig is amazing. Dit is 'n pragtige plaas. Die stilte en rustigheid is net wat ons nodig gehad het, wens ons kon langer bly. George en Tamara het ons baie vriendelik ontvang. Ons het heerlik gestap en die natuur geniet. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Dit was ongelooflik lekker en rustig. Daar was geen probleme.

Ons is baie goed ontvang en het net die beste tyd gehad. Alles wat jy nodig het vir 'n wegbreek was daar. Dit was ongelooflik lekker en my man het baie bass gevang. Ons beoog om so binne die volgende maand weer soontoe te gaan. Baie dankie aan Mountain Rest, julle verdien elke ster.

Ongelooflike plekkie.

Mountain Rest is 'n stukkie hemel op aarde, die wilde perde wat kom inloer het, die ure se visvang by die dam, voorwaar lekker uitgerus. Die stukkie grondpad na Mountain Rest mag 'n uitdaging wees vir gewone motorvoertuie as dit gereën het.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Incredible place.

Mountain Rest is a piece of heaven on earth, the wild horses that stopped by, the hours of fishing at the pond, really well rested. The stretch of dirt road to Mountain Rest can be a challenge for normal motor vehicles if it has been raining.

Versteekte skat.

Hierdie is die oulikste plekkie waar ek al in 'n lang tyd was. Mens mis nie eers die feit dat daar nie krag is nie. Die eenheid is baie goed uitgerus met elke liewe ding wat mens sal nodig hê. Daar is selfs bordspeletjies en boeke om jou gesin nog soos in die ou dae besig te hou. Ons het ook lekker visgevang! Baie dankie vir die lekker kuiertjie.

Hidden treasure.

This is the cutest place I've been in a long time. One does not even miss the fact that there is no power. The unit is very well equipped with every little thing one would need. There are even board games and books to keep your family busy just like in the old days. We also had fun fishing! Thank you very much for the nice visit.

Perfekte plek om weg te kom van die besige lewe.

Baie dankie vir die heerlike naweek by julle. Die plek is perfek om te ontsnap van die besige stadslewe. Baie skoon en netjies en die kaggel skep presies die regte atmosfeer op koue wintersaande. Die uitsig is pragtig en ons sal beslis weer terug wees.
