Awesome, peaceful, relaxing.

What a lovely place! We had such a lovely time, the fishing was tough but stick it out, and you figure them out.

Wonderful, relaxing and quiet getaway.

We had a very relaxing stay on the farm. We were able to walk for ages around the farm. There is a lot of bird life at the cottage.

Heerlike herlaai van batterye!

Ons het heerlik gebly in Grannies Cottage! Die vuurherd was al Vrydagaand aangesteek, want dit was heel koel in die omgewing. Die plaas is stil en sonder TV of WiFi, en mens kan jou batterye rustig herlaai. Dis lekker om die beeste te sien en net plaaslewe te ervaar. En my konstante hoes was sommer baie beter van die skoon lug! Dit was nogal 'n belewenis om by die padkafee, en die besige Hungry Otter in Tonteldoos te besoek, slegs 3km van Grannies Cottage af. Die pad is ongelukkig regtig erg vir stadsmotors, maar ons voertuig is hoog en kon die dongas hanteer.

Great recharging of batteries!

We had a wonderful stay in Grannies Cottage! The hearth was already lit on Friday evening, because it was very cool in the area. The farm is quiet and without TV or WiFi, and you can recharge your batteries peacefully. It's nice to see the cattle and just experience farm life. And my constant cough was much better from the clean air! It was quite an experience to visit the road cafe, and the busy Hungry Otter in Tonteldoos, only 3km from Grannies Cottage. Unfortunately, the road is really bad for city cars, but our vehicle is tall and could handle the dongas.

Baie rustig, mooi en lekker om afteskakel.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, ons het ook ons 2 x Scottish Terriers saam gevat. Hulle het dit ook baie geniet - maar ek verkies dat die cottages net 'n heining gehad het sodat ons honde apart kon wees van die ander gaste se honde. Die is baie naby die hoofhuis. Maar die plek is pragtig, my man het die visvang baie geniet. As jy hou van 'n paar dae sonder "screen time" is hierdie plek perfek. Baie dankie vir die lekker bly.

Very peaceful, beautiful and nice to switch off.

We had a great stay, we also took our 2 x Scottish Terriers with us. They also really enjoyed it - but I prefer that the cottages only had a fence so that our dogs could be separate from the other guests' dogs. It is very close to the main house. But the place is beautiful, my husband really enjoyed the fishing. If you like a few days without "screen time" this place is perfect. Thank you very much for the nice stay.

A place to breathe.

O'Grady's farm is a beautiful place with a wonderful little history. We went with our 2 x 3-year-olds and 1-year-old baby, and the space and freedom were next level. Sometimes you go away and end up being more tired because of travelling, sightseeing, and being on the move - the O'Grady's farm is not that. It is a break in its truest sense. Thanks, Alan and Riette for your hospitality and being welcoming.

Rus en vrede.

Baie rustig en stil. Geen lig- of geraasbesoedeling. Lekker om plaas of area te beken. Baie swak selfoonsein, maak dit nog beter.

Rest and peace.

Very calm and quiet. No light or noise pollution. Nice to know farm or area. Very weak cell phone signal, makes it even better.

A great old farm house - out in the wide open country with great walks, fishing, cycling,

A great place. We did have a slight plumbing issue, but that is being sorted out after our feedback. A great house for 2 families of 4.

Die is my nuwe gunsteling plek. Ek is terug binnekort.

Ek glo nie jy kry ’n beter plek om te ontspan in die natuur soos dié nie. Die rustigheid en plaaslewe is iets wat ek nog nie beleef het nie.

It's my new favorite place. I'll be back soon.

I don't believe you can find a better place to relax in nature like this. The tranquility and farm life is something I have not experienced before.

Rustig, goed vir die siel.

Cottage is baie smaakvol ingerig met alles wat jy benodig. Ideaal vir asemskep, gemaklike plaaspaaie om te stap of bergfiets te ry en mooi landskap. Reinette, die gasvrou, kommunikeer goed en maak seker dat jy alles het wat jy nodig het. Vir 'n vaste fooi was daar genoeg vuurmaakhout en die kaggel het gesorg vir lekker warm en gesellige aande. Weberbraai was ook 'n wenner en ons kon 'n roast maak vir Vadersdag. Alhoewel die damme nie naby is nie, was die hengel goed en vir die eerste maal in jare kon my man weer heerlik forel vang. Die Tonteldoospad na die plaas is baie sleg so maak seker jy het alle benodighede vir die tyd wat jy daar bly en moenie beplan vir 'n vinnige dorp toe en terug nie. As jy beplan om baie tyd in die dorp te spandeer, soek liewer 'n plek in die dorp. Maar, indien jy wil wegkom van die stad se besigheid en lawaai is O'Gradys vyfster.

Peaceful, good for the soul.

Cottage is very tastefully furnished with everything you need. Ideal for breath taking, comfortable farm roads for walking or mountain biking and beautiful landscape. Reinette, the hostess, communicates well and makes sure you have everything you need. For a fixed fee there was plenty of firewood and the fireplace made for nice warm and cozy evenings. Weberbraai was also a winner and we were able to make a roast for Father's Day. Although the ponds are not close, the fishing was good and for the first time in years my husband was able to catch trout again. The Tonteldoos road to the farm is very bad so make sure you have all the necessities for the time you stay there and don't plan for a quick trip to town and back. If you plan to spend a lot of time in town, better look for a place in town. But, if you want to get away from the city's business and noise, O'Gradys is five star.

Die rustigheid is onvergeetlik!

Die plek self is 100%, maar die pad daarheen is werklik rof. So as jy 'n 4x4-voertuig het, is dit 'n nie 'n probleem nie. Dit is werklik afgesonder, werklik rustig en stil. Ongelooflik mooi. Die hoëveld op sy beste. Na 3 nagte het dit vir my gevoel asof ek vir 3 weke weg was. Die blyplek is goed ingerig, baie skoon en netjies met alles wat nodig is. Ideaal as jy uitgestres is en net jouself weer wil vind. Geen TV, geen radio en sein net so nou en dan op sekere plekke! Maar absoluut die moeite werd.

The tranquility is unforgettable!

The place itself is 100%, but the road to it is really rough. So if you have a 4x4 vehicle, it's not a problem. It is truly secluded, truly peaceful and quiet. Incredibly beautiful. The high field at its best. After 3 nights it felt like I was gone for 3 weeks. The accommodation is well furnished, very clean and tidy with everything needed. Ideal if you are stressed out and just want to find yourself again. No TV, no radio and signal only now and then in certain places! But absolutely worth it.
