Fantasties, skoon, asemrowend mooi en vriendelike diens.

Waar begin ek met hierdie pragtige stukkie paradys? Ons verblyf vanaf 14 tot 16 September 2024 was uit die boonste rakke! Niks moeite of koste met die interieur en die verblyf is ontsien nie. Die plek is net 'n wow! Die gasheer vir die naweek en sy diens en vriendelikheid was voortreflik. Ook Corlee, die eienaar, was behulpsaam en baie vriendelik. Die twee verskillende braai kuier areas was fantasties en so mooi. Vandaar kon ons die leeus se gebrul saam met die jakkals se tjank en die hiëna se lag hoor. Die uitsig vanaf die dek by die swembad is nimmereindigend. Die hele bosveld lê voor jou oop. Die meubels en stoele was gemaklik en van kwaliteit. Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek vir ons as familie. Ek sal Nyala Hill sterk aanbeveel.

Fantastic, clean, breathtakingly beautiful and friendly service.

Where do I start with this beautiful piece of paradise? Our stay from 14 to 16 September 2024 was top notch! No effort or cost has been spared with the interior and the accommodation. The place is just a wow! The host for the weekend and his service and friendliness was excellent. Also Corlee, the owner, was helpful and very friendly. The two different braai hanging out areas were fantastic and so beautiful. From there we could hear the roar of the lions along with the howl of the jackal and the laugh of the hyena. The view from the pool deck is never-ending. The entire woodland lies open before you. The furniture and chairs were comfortable and of good quality. It was a lovely break for us as a family. I would highly recommend Nyala Hill.

Lekkerste huis in die Bosveld.

Stunning huis in die bos, baie netjies. Als is gemaklik en goed toegerus. Het die buite kuier areas vreeslik baie geniet. Ongelooflike mooi uitsig en the host is fantasties en baie behulpsaam. Baie vriendelike staf. Sal definitief weer kom. Al wat kort is stoele op elke balkon en om die dek by die swembad. Baie dankie vir 'n heerlike naweek.

Nicest house in the Bosveld.

Stunning house in the woods, very tidy. Als is comfortable and well equipped. Enjoyed the outdoor areas very much. Unbelievably beautiful view and the host is fantastic and very helpful. Very friendly staff. Will definitely come again. All that is missing are chairs on each balcony and around the deck by the pool. Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend.

Baie luuks!

Die huis is pragtig en ruim. Lieflike uitsig oor die bosveld. Die tuin is mooi en daar is twee boma areas apart van die huis, half weg gesteek in die bos. Baie mooi.

Lekker lang naweek wegbreek. Behalwe vir hoofhek kode uitdagings.

Reelings rondom hekkode met "arrival" en "departure" kan opgeskerp word. Verder baie lekker gekuier met gesin. Remember en Thomas altyd beskikbaar met hulp en inligting.

Lekker Bosveld wegbreek net buite Pretoria.

Nyala Hill is die perfekte plek om af te skakel en te ontspan. Die huis is goed uitgerus (behalwe vir die tekort aan 'n toeknyprooster). Die opsigter was ook baie behulpsaam en vriendelik. Die waterpomp het probleme veroorsaak tydens ons besoek wat stort moeilik gemaak het, maar dit word volgens die opsigter aangespreek.

Nice Bosveld getaway just outside Pretoria.

Nyala Hill is the perfect place to switch off and relax. The house is well equipped (except for the lack of a toaster oven). The caretaker was also very helpful and friendly. The water pump caused problems during our visit which made showering difficult, but this is being addressed according to the caretaker.

Looks stately with disappointments in areas that matter.

The views are breathtaking. The general plumbing in the bathrooms has not been maintained. Water was cold on occasions. The pressure in the baths was non-existent. The bidet tap did not work. It looks aesthetically pleasing and stately. It's tired. The main bedroom door onto the verandah could not close properly. I found no flexibility on check-in or check-out times. The guy staying on the property lit the indoor braai for us while we left for a game drive and asked for a tip. The meet and greet with him was fine. The place needs more care in upkeep and cleanliness, with soaps, etc.

Nyala Hill 's response

Thank you for your feedback. Please note that plumbing and geysers have been upgraded in the bathrooms. Watermarks and filters have been serviced, which will fix the pressure problem.
We also made some changes based on your other feedback.

Loved every moment!

What an awesome stay! Highly recommendable. This was the most amazing holiday ever with my young adults. Loved every moment. Very clean, spacious, friendly staff! Pity that the swimming pool was not heated because we would have used it more (we had a few cool days) and it was advertised as a heated pool. The indoor fireplace didn't have gas, so that was also a pity. Other than that, awesome.

Tranquility at its best! Beautiful place to recoup and relax.

Once a year my friends and I break away on a ladies' weekend and this place ticked all the boxes. We were welcomed with a friendly face, a clean and tidy house, everything we needed and more, a beautiful view and just too many others to mention. We absolutely loved every minute of staying here and would highly recommend it to anyone who would like a peaceful break away from the city. Will definitely book here again.

Little piece of heaven on earth.

Close to the city but far enough away to feel like a break. The house was very well-equipped. The house managers (Remember and Thomas) were more than willing to help. House being serviced daily helps us sit back and relax. Will most definitely be back.

Die bosveld roep my en ons het geantwoord.

Ons het saam ons vêr-familie na Nyala Hill gegaan vir 'n naweek wegbreek en dit het al ons verwagtinge oortref. Die huis is pragtig, baie ruim, netjies en skoon maar die feit dat dit net 1 uur buite Pretoria was, was die hoogtepunt. Die uitsig is onoortreflik en het ons van nature buite toe aangetrek (weg van TV's, ipads en fone). Die verhitte swembad was 'n treffer met die kinders, maar ons het gevoel dat ons die kleiner kinders meer as gewoonlik moes dophou as gevolg van die "waterfall". Vir die grootmense was dit wel die perfekte skemerkelkie wegkruipplek. Die huis is vir net die basiese ingerig vir "loadshedding" skedules maar dit het nie veel gepla nie, want die sterre was toe op hulle mooiste. En ja, jy kan die leeus hoor gedurende die aande (partykeer bietjie nader gevoel as wat ek mee gemaklik was). Enigste negatief was ongelukkig die pad op na die huis. Dit is baie steil en nie noodwendig die mooiste pad nie, so los maar die lae stads-kar by die huis, maar sonder die steil hoogte kan jy nie die uitsig hê nie. Ons het baie lekker gekuier by Nyala Hill!

The woodland called me and we answered.

We went with our extended family to Nyala Hill for a weekend getaway and it exceeded all our expectations. The house is beautiful, very spacious, neat and clean but the fact that it was only 1 hour outside Pretoria was the highlight. The view is unsurpassed and naturally attracted us to the outdoors (away from TVs, ipads and phones). The heated pool was a hit with the kids, but we felt we had to keep an eye on the smaller kids more than usual because of the "waterfall". For the grown-ups, it was the perfect cocktail hideaway. The house was set up for just the basics for "loadshedding" schedules but it didn't bother much because the stars were at their most beautiful then. And yes, you can hear the lions during the evenings (sometimes felt a bit closer than I was comfortable with). Only negative was unfortunately the way up to the house. It's very steep and not necessarily the prettiest road, so leave the low city car at home, but without the steep elevation you can't have the view. We had a great time at Nyala Hill!

Pragtige, rustige plek waar jy in weelde kan weg ruip vir die wêreld.

Die aanduidings was baie onduidelik. Ek moes sein soek op die grondpad om LekkeSlaap te bel. Daar is eers toe vir my gesê daar is 'n hek en die kode is gestuur. Die toilette se spoelmeganismes het aandag nodig. Promise was baie behulpsaam en fantasties!

Beautiful, peaceful place where you can escape the world in luxury.

The indications were very unclear. I had to look for a signal on the dirt road to call LekkeSlaap. Only then was I told there was a gate and the code was sent. The toilets' flushing mechanisms need attention. Promise was very helpful and fantastic!
