Had a very pleasant experience and visit with friends at My Bushhouse.
The facilities are sufficient with many plus points at a good price. The air conditioning in the bedrooms is fantastic in the hot summer evenings. The solar facilities to keep some lights and fans on are a definite asset to My Bushhouse. The patio area that is covered with mesh is a very nice area for hanging out. The full DStv to maybe watch the weekend's rugby and keep the small team busy is very convenient. Recommendations would be to make equipment available to be able to clean braai pits and create coals. Maybe a shovel and metal shovel to clear the area for the next day's barbecue will help. The cleanliness of the outdoor area can be improved. Many months of dry leaves lie everywhere and the garden has had little attention. Other than that, My Bushhouse will definitely see us again!

Hi Rudi, thank you very much for taking the time to write a review. I am happy that you had a good time and enjoy all what the house has to offer, including the newly installed small solar system. I also thank you for alerting me that the little "skoppie" to clear the braai area has disappeared again. I will definitely arrange with Debbie to replace it. As for the garden, we tend not to rake the stand to prevent erosion. I do hope the pathways were cleared and apart from this I look forward to welcoming you again.

Have a nice visit.
It's not a very big house so don't be more than 4 persons. Have a very nice visit stoep with braai and with oven facilities on the stoep. Porch is covered with bars and mesh to keep out unwanted things. The 1 shower can be a problem if there are more than 4 persons. The pool was also a nice escape in the hot weather. The double bed could be just a bit bigger as I think the bed is smaller than a double bed.

Hi Alta, baie dankie vir jou terugvoering. The little waterhole is supposed to fill automatically. I will check with the maintenance crew to see if it is blocked or if there is any problem with the valve. Did you not have the key for the gate that leads to it? I am, however, concerned about your rating for cleanliness, which I will also address.

Way beyond expectations!
The place really surprised us and was a lot more than expected from a forest house. The oven on the stoep next to the braai was fantastic, because while the fire was being lit I could get the side dishes ready there too without having to be on one side in the kitchen. It makes family gatherings so much more fun!

It's a nice cozy place. Especially the porch section.
The house is located in such a way that it feels like you are alone in nature all the time. Several goats visited there daily. The fact that the stoep is equipped with a stove and braai makes it very cozy. Everyone can hang out together. Only the stairs can be a problem for older people or those with difficulty walking. The inside is very neat and well equipped. From the outside it looks old but when you go through the wooden gate it is just a pleasure. We had a very nice stay.

The location is great and has all the basic necessities.
The house itself is neat and meets one's basic needs. But the screen window frames are all loose, and falling out. The master bedroom's light switch is faulty. There are no bedside lamps in the master bedroom, which makes it very impractical. The kitchen utensils are not complete, tons of knives, but not enough tablespoons or teaspoons. When we arrived the garden tools were just left in the middle of nowhere, we had to move them out of the way ourselves. The garden hose was still in the pool, had to move it to get in and out of the house comfortably, so that the children don't fall over it.

Breathtaking and far beyond our expectations.
We really enjoyed our stay at Bayt AlGhaba. The place is very well furnished and very beautiful. The stoep part was our dream and we spent hours walking around there. It was for sure the best choice we made. I would recommend it to anyone, on the contrary, I have already recommended it to a few people. The pool was a great treat and the animals at the watering hole were awesome. Your question was whether I would be able to recommend it and although there is only Yes or No, I would say very definitely. It's value for money. The place is very well furnished and everything you need is there. Man, we just really enjoyed it and can't stop talking about the place. Martie, the owner, personally called us from Qatar (Middle East) the next day to make sure we were safe there and that everything was in order. It was extremely dear of her to me, the personal contact meant a lot.

I was a bit disappointed.
The basic kitchen necessities came up short. There was no pan to fry eggs, no tupperware bowls to put anything in, no full big glass bowl or so to put anything in, down over saucepans, no turntable in microwave, the freezer didn't seal and was so tackled that we had to defrost it first to get broken drawers closed. The cushions on the sofas in the living room are dirty and full of stains. The sofas are broken and feel like you are sitting on wood. The double bed is laid out so that when you turn over it feels like you're going to fall off. The dstv was not on when we came as asked in advance. I had to call for it first. The power was only about 60 units and not enough for 7 nights and I had to call for that too. I had trouble getting hold of Martie or Debbie about the power. I feel very disappointed and am not one to complain. I always book through Lekkeslaap and always get good service there and I know this is everything I mentioned outside of your control. The owner will really have to plan a little at the cottage.

We had a great time relaxing, the tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of the city was wonderful. The stoep is a place you never want to leave, you can sit there all day and relax. We had some animals come to visit, saw monkeys, wild pigs, goats and even a kudu family and of course beautiful birds. We would definitely recommend My Bushhouse to people.

We were pleasantly surprised with the nice place! We were 4 adults and 2 children aged 7 and 10. Everything was clean and tidy, linen and towels were fresh. We enjoyed the few days on the veranda and around the pool. The bush babies visited us regularly. Game was a bit scarce. But luckily a visitor every day. There was just something missing here and there, such as a braai and extra chairs on the veranda. But nothing without which we couldn't get along. The pool was a welcome treat in the heat! We will go again for sure!

My Bushhouse (Bayt AlGhaba) is value for money for sure. We enjoyed sitting by the fire and watching the children swim in the splash pool. The covered braai and food place is very conveniently arranged and is a bonus for when it rains. I felt very at home with the soft linen on the beds. We also had many visitors, night monkeys, turtles, warthogs, zebras etc. It's not too far from the main road and is easy to find. For sure a nice place to enjoy time with family and friends.
