Ons het baie lekker gekuier! Die uitsig is asemrowend mooi. Bernardo is baie besorg oor sy gaste, hulle diens was uitstekend. Ons sal definitief weer gaan kuier!

Bernardo het gehelp met die aanwysings deur sommer vir my 'n location te stuur, met aankoms was alles skoon en netjies. Ons het heerlik by die binnebraai gesit en kuier. Ek sal definitief hierdie plek aanbeveel vir natuurliefhebbers!

Beautiful and peaceful location, friendly service.

It was quite a drive up the mountain, which we didn't expect. Our car was able to make it up but one should definitely not come with a luxury car. The scenery is incredible, in the morning you are surrounded by clouds, it's breathtaking. The accommodation is not the most comfortable but the location definitely makes up for it.

Vinnige wegbreek.

Ons besoek was slegs 'n vinnige wegbreek om kwaliteittyd saam te spandeer. Die rustige atmosfeer en omringende natuur was perfek vir hierdie doel. Die gashere was bitter vriendelik en akkommoderend! Baie dankie vir die reëlings en die op-check of als reg is. Die braaihout was die beste in die gebied, beste waarde vir geld ook! Sal beslis weer besoek vir 'n langer tydperk.

Perfekte wegbreek in die berge.

Ons het Boesmanskloof die eerste keer so 5/6 jaar terug ontdek voordat die webtuiste daarvan te hore gekom het. Daardie tyd was dit natuurlik makliker om plek te kry, maar Boesmanskloof is nes ek dit onthou. Ongerep, pragtig en rustig. Net wat mens nodig het om weg te kom van die stad se rumoer: Die eienaars is vriendelik en behulpsaam. Baie dankie!

This is a wow place. Beautiful scenery. Rustic cottages with so many special things. Little touches. Very clean.

This is a very special place with spectacular views from the units and from where ever you are. Which ever way you look it is peaceful and relaxing. Mountains, valleys, proteas, birds and buck - especially klipspringers. The cottages are well equipped, very clean with many special touches that make one feel welcome. The walks are strenuous and easy, the choice is yours. Sitting on the comfortable couch on the patio in the evenings looking at the stars which appear so much closer and bigger. A special mention to Bernado. Thank you for the way you looked after us. The day before we arrived a severe storm knocked out the electrical transformer. Bernado made sure we had everything we needed. Made it into an adventure. The lights were fixed the next day. Well done to all. We switched the lights off that night again.

Heerlike, mooi en vriendelike wegbreek.

Dit was by verre een van ons lekkerste naweke. Die verblyf was cosy, skoon en baie mooi. Ons kinders (tieners) het die natuur vreeslik geniet. Die huisie se dekor was baie mooi. Als wat ons nodig gehad het en meer was beskikbaar. Ek sal hul oor en oor aanbeveel. Veral as 'n mens wil wegkom van die stad, geraas en heerlik wil bond met jou gesin en die natuur.

Die Blushing Bride Cottage kyk uit oor die berge van McGregor. As jy natuurskoon en stilwees nodig het, is dit die perfekte plek. Die gasheer was baie hulpvaardig en ons het regtig niks gekort nie. Ek sal vir seker weer hierdie plek besoek. Dis 'n regte juweel.

Die wonderlikste, rustigste wegkom-plek in die berge!

Die naweek weg wat ons saam met ons familie hier spandeer het, was werklik een wat ons sal onthou. Die beste herinnering is die warm koffie langs die vuur op die dek, met die vallei as ons uitsig.

It was amazing on top of the peak, with a beautiful view of the farmland and the mountains. There you really can say silence is golden. All you hear is nature. We will go again. Maybe in winter to experience the snow and the cosiness of the cottage with a nice fire inside.

Fantastic weekend getaway for nature lovers.

We arrived the Friday night and was greeted with fantastic weather and absolute peace and quiet. The road leading to the cottage was a bit rough but doable on a small hatchback (just choose your line correctly). The cottage is rustic and basic. It is all you really need to get by. The view is absolutely stunning. The bathroom is tiny with the toilet right up against the wall (no legroom for taller individuals). One of the things we found a bit annoying was when the hikers arrived on Saturday, they were rather loud. There are virtually no walls between the cottages to dampen the noise. We knew our neighbours rather well after that night without ever meeting them. I am nit picking though. The spot is fantastic, and I will be returning soon. Perhaps next time in one of the individual cottages.

Dit was 'n fantastiese wegbreek van die gejaag - baie lekker om net af te skakel en te ontspan met net die natuur om jou. Die kothuis is baie goed ingerig en Bernardo was baie behulpsaam met alles. Bobbejaanskloof is definitief iets om te beleef en ek sal definitief eendag wil terugkeer en en een van die vele staproetes aandurf! Dit is regtig 'n stukkie hemel op aarde wat julle hier het - dankie dat julle dit met ons gedeel het.

Breathtaking views and uttermost relaxation.

The attention to detail was a big surprise. They have absolutely think of everything. From a deck of cards for playing games to candles in case of power failure. The supply of wood was unlimited as long as you pay the minimum fee of R20 a bag which was a bargain in comparison with other places, and did I mention the wood was dry which was also nice. The beauty of the scenery speaks for itself and the 4x4 routes was also a breathtaking view with a great variety of plant species and birds.

It was an absolute pleasure staying at Onverwacht. The service was impeccable, the cottages perfectly suited to a city getaway and well priced. We did not do much, but used the opportunity to rest and amble through the incredible fynbos. A photographers dream and artists muse and a families much needed retreat.

The view is stunning, absolutely loved it. The house we stayed in was very sweet - clean and tidy and well set out. Bernardo was extremely helpful when we got a bit lost- a great host. We would absolutely love to go again soon - only this time I will check that there are no big groups celebrating very loudly until after 2 am. It is really sad that people go to a place like this and then pollute it with so much noise without a single thought to other travellers that actually went there to get close to nature.

Wat 'n awesome ervaring. Kan nie ophou aangaan oor die prentjiemooi plek nie. Die omgewing is onbeskrylik mooi. Akkommodasie het voldoen aan ons vereistes. Daar is aan alles gedink, van kerse tot die baie vuurmaakhout. Kon kwaliteittyd met die kinders spandeer sonder enige televisie of netwerk. Kinders het dit ook baie geniet, wat 'n bonus was. Die stilte het gehelp om weer batterye te herlaai. Ons kom beslis weer terug. Baie dankie Bernardo.

Outstanding experience.

Lovely retreat away from everything and amongst the picturesque mountain scenery found between wine farms. We stayed for the evening in an old school cabin (sort of like the type your gran would decorate), but truly awesome and unique with the smell of rooibos as you enter the residence. This is a retreat away from everything to have solace and quality alone time with your family or partner/s (if you're that way inclined), an amazing hike leading to rock pools made for an awesome swim and refreshing interval to prepare you for the tough hike back up the mountain.

6 of us ladies decided on a weekend away in the bush. It was awesome. Our host Bernado was very friendly and helpful. The cottages are well equipped and spacious. A few of the ladies were not to happy that the hot water was only luke warm for their morning showers though.

Dit was heerlik, ons het die stilte en die pragtige natuurskoon geniet.

As ek paar dinge kan noem, daar moet net aandag gegee word aan die staproete aanwysings, ons het verdwaal omdat die bord omgeval het en dus nie die regte roete gevolg nie. In die huisie, het die yskas nie reg gewerk nie en het al ons groente en slaaigoed gevries en ons moes dit toe weggooi. Ek sou ook nie so 'n groot tafel ingesit het nie, mens kon skaars by die wasbak uitkom. Ons sou ook verkies het dat die mense nie musiek maak nie, want dit gaan juis daaroor om die stilte te waardeer.

It was lovely, we enjoyed the silence and the beautiful nature.

If I can mention a few things, there needs to be looked at the directions of the walking route, we got lost because the sign had fell off en we therefore didn't follow the correct route. The fridge didn't work right and froze all of our vegetable a salad ingredients that we had to throw away. We would have also preferred that the people do not play music, seeing as we were there to enjoy the quiet.

Ons het lekker en gerieflik gebly in Waboom 2. Bernardo is baie flink met sy diens en het uit sy pad gegaan om te verseker dat alles reg en volgens ons behoeftes is. Die natuur is asemrowend met haar fynbos en veelkleurige blomme. Die staproetes is maklik om te volg en 'n moet vir mense met 'n gemiddelde fiksheidsvlak. Die stilte is hoorbaar by Onverwacht.

Onvergeetlike uitsigte! Swak verblyf!

Wat 'n juweel wat natuur aanbetref! Compacta-Bergtrein bespreek vanaf 29/10 - 1/11. "Rustic" bly is nie 'n probleem nie, maar vuil bly wel! Instandhouding skiet tekort, erge storm beleef en dak het amper afgewaai! Foto's misleidend, geriewe misleidend, veilige parkering misleidend, aktiwiteite op perseel misleidend. Wat 'n teleurstelling! Al wat ek gekry het wat dieselfde was as op die foto's was die natuur! Die laaste km of so is die grondpad bykans onbegaanbaar. Het ten einde laaste net een nag oorgebly, het nie 'n probleem gehad om my geld terug te kry nie.

Unforgettable views! Bad accommodation!

What a gem as far as nature is concerned! Compacta Mountain Train booked from 29/10 - 1/11. "Rustic" living is not a problem, but dirty living is! Maintenance falls short, experienced a severe storm and the roof almost blew off! Photos misleading, amenities misleading, secure parking misleading, activities on site misleading. What a disappointment! All I got that was the same as in the pictures was nature! The last km or so the dirt road is almost impassable.

Boesmanskloof Blushingbride Cottage - No.1 's response

Op die aand van die 29/10/18 het Onverwacht Cottages 'n storm beleef wat ons noem 'n "Berg van storms van wind en reen". Jammer dat moeder natuur jul juis in jul vakansie tyd moes oorval het en nog in die Riviersonderend berge ook. U woorde "Wat 'n juweel wat natuur aanbetref" kon onmoontlik tot sy reg kom in so 'n storm. Ek is opreg baie dankbaar jul is veilig. Dit was vir my teleurstellend dat u nie op my omgee boodskappe gereageer het nie. Oor die storm is ek jammer al was dit buite my beheer. Ek is bly jul is vergoed vir die ongerief.
Ek moet egter noem dat niks op ons plasing enigsins misleidend is nie. Die fotos, geriewe en aktiwiteite is alles soos wat dit ons plasing is. Jammer vir die pad ook. Hier betaal mens 'n prys om so hoog teen die berge jou leef te leef.

Dit was heerlik, die staproete na die ysige koue bergpoel is 'n moet! Die stilte is heerlik, snags se pikswart donkerte met die sterre wat jy duidelik kan sien, is 'n moet-sien vir almal. Die eienaars was ongelooflik vriendelik, aanhoudend gevra of ons ok is en tot ys op huis gekry.

Dit was asemrowend met mooiheid en stilte!

Ons het dit baie geniet. Die natuurskoon met al die rustigheid, net die voëltjies wat jy hoor. Vars lug en nog lekkerder gewees dat daar nie ligte was nie. Dit het beteken niemand het met hul selfone gesit en vroetel nie! Haha, grootste blessing sal ek se. Ons het alles gehad wat nodig is. Dit was ons 2de besoek aan Boesmanskloof en eerste vir ons vriende en hulle was totaal en al weggeblaas met alles. So julle sal ons weer sien.

These quaint cottages are equipped in every detail for a rustic weekend in nature and the mountains. The owners were absolutely amazing in terms of response and helpfulness. Bernado went the extra mile to ensure that all of our needs were met. We actually walked from Greyton (Boesmanskloof) to the cottage and he was in constant contact to ensure that we arrived safely at our destination. Can highly recommend, the walk and accommodation.

'n Ongelooflike ervaring!

Elke stadsjapie moet ten minste een maal in sy/haar lewe hier kom oornag. Dit is net eenvoudig uit 'n ander wêreld en ons was bevoorreg om 2 aande tydens ons wittebrood in hierdie lieflike "Blushing Bride" berghuisie oor te slaap. Die eienaars het beslis 'n wenresep hier beet - back to basics. Mens is net soveel meer dankbaar vir die luukshede wat mens by die huis het maar beny ook die lewenstyl wat hierdie fasiliteit bied. Ons kan nie uitgepraat raak oor die ervaring nie en sal enige iemand aanbeveel om hier te bespreek.

An incredible experience!

Every city dweller should spend the night here at least once in his/her life. It is simply out of this world and we were privileged to spend 2 nights during our honeymoon in this lovely "Blushing Bride" mountain cottage. The owners definitely have a winning recipe here - back to basics. One is just that much more grateful for the luxuries one has at home but also envies the lifestyle this facility offers. We cannot rave about the experience and would recommend anyone to book here.

Uit die boeke!

Ons het op die laaste minuut besluit om Wacky Wine toe te gaan en na 'n geweldige soektog was Waboom Cottage by Boesmanskloof Onverwacht Flora die enigste beskikbare verblyf groot genoeg om ons groep van 10 te kon akkommodeer.. Maar ons was so bly dat dit ons huis vir die naweek was! Die feit dat dit 'n entjie se ry van Robertson af was het op die ou end nie eers saak gemaak nie. Die plek is pragtig en die uitsig is iets wat ons altyd sal onthou! Die huis self is perfek en ten volle toegerus, dit was nie nodig om enige iets behalwe klere en kos in te pak nie! Daar was ook geen kans vir koud kry in die nag nie aangesien daar oorgenoeg beddegoed was en selfs warmwaterbottels. Die feit dat daar nie krag is nie is ook geen kwessie nie want daar is genoeg kerse en gaslampe vir elke vertrek. En ons stem saam met die vorige gaste - geen krag is deel van Boesmanskloof Onverwacht se "charm". Ons kan nie wag om weer te gaan nie! Baie dankie aan Sandra en Japie Oosthuizen vir jul hulp en gasvryheid - ons waardeer dit opreg!

One for the books!

We decided at the last minute to go to Wacky Wine and after a helluva search we found Waboom Cottage at Boesmanskloof Onverwacht Flora to be the only available place to accommodate our group of 10. But we were so happy that that was our house for the weekend! The fact that it was a little way's drive from Robertson did not even matter in the end. The place is beautiful and the view something we will remember for ever. The house itself is perfect and fully equipped. It wasn't necessary to take anything except our clothes and food. There was also no chance of getting cold at night seeing as how there was more than enough bedding and even hot water bottles! The fact that there was no power was also no issue as there were enough candles and gas lamps in every room. We also agree with previous guests - the no electricity is part and parcel of Boesmanskloof Onverwacht's charm. We cannot wait to go again! Thank you to Sandra and Japie Oosthuizen for your help and hospitality. We appreciate it!

Toegevou in liefde.

Ten tyde van aankoms was daar 'n welkom-boodskap in kryt op die deur van die Blushing Bride Cottage. Ons was meteens meegevoer met die stilte en skoonheid van ons omgewing, voor ons binne die beeldskone blyplek was. In die natuurlikheid van Onverwacht, was ons toegevou in liefde. Sandra en Bernardo was baie behulpsaam en verwelkomend. Ons het die tyd saam terdeë geniet. Ek en vroulief sal beslis weer terugkeer na ons nuutgevonde wegbreek-hemel.

On arrival there was a welcome message in chalk on the door of the Blushing Bride Cottage. We were immediately carried away with the silence and beauty of our surroundings, before we were inside the beautiful abode. In the naturalness of Onverwacht, we were enveloped in love. Sandra and Bernardo were very helpful and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed the time together. My wife and I will definitely return to our newfound getaway heaven.

Ongelooflike ervaring in die berg tussen pragtige plantegroei en dierelewe!

Die kliphuisies met hul landelike versiering; die gasvryheid van ons gashere; die staproetes tussen die pragtige plantegroei; die kleinwild soos verkleurmannetjies, koggelmanders en soveel insekte, die bokkies wat op die terrein kom wei; die waterpoele; steiltes teen die berg uit en dan weer gly-gly af tot onder; die onbeskryflike mooi sterrenagte; die mis in die klowe; die wind - alles maak hierdie ervaring iets waaraan woorde nie reg kan laat geskied nie. Kom ervaar dit self en trap fyn en versigtig sodat hierdie spesiale plek ook nog daar sal wees vir ons nageslagte.

Incredible experience in the mountain among beautiful vegetation and animal life!

The stone houses with their rural decoration; the hospitality of our hosts; the hiking trails among the beautiful vegetation; the small game such as chameleons, hornbills and so many insects, the goats that come to graze on the site; the pools of water; slopes up the mountain and then slide-slide down to the bottom; the indescribably beautiful starry nights; the fog in the ravines; the wind - everything makes this experience something that words cannot do justice to. Come and experience it for yourself and tread carefully and carefully so that this special place will still be there for our descendants.

Spectacular views from the stoep but unfortunately could not sit on the stoep due to the wind. Best to go in summer when it's nice and hot.

It is a nature lover's paradise. We went hiking with the kids on the circular route. The weather was not great on the mountain but was nice in the town. The Lord Wine Estate has exceptional wines, which is close to the accommodation.

Die verblyf het die basiese wat mens nodig het. Dit is perfek vir die ligging en al wat mens nodig het.

Die klein plekkie is soos hemel op aarde. Heel bo in die berg, afgesonder van alle geraas en alledaagse tegnologie. Baie romanties en knus. Sal dit definitief aanbeveel vir mense wat wil wegbreek en 100% ontspan. Baie mooi uitsigte, staproetes en bergpoele.

The accommodation has the basics that one needs. It is perfect for the location and everything one needs.

The little place is like heaven on earth. At the very top of the mountain, isolated from all noise and everyday technology. Very romantic and cozy. Would definitely recommend to people who want to get away and 100% relax. Very nice views, hiking trails and mountain pools.

Dis 'n plekkie wat in jou hart in kruip.

Hier vind jy ware rustigheid met 'n asemrowende uitsig oor die berge en vallei. Dit is die ideale plek om na te gaan wanneer jy wil rus en ontsnap van die besige stadslewe. Daar is lekker staproetes wat jy kan volg om die mooi omgewing te aanskou.

Idillies in die berge!

Ons het die tyd van ons lewe gehad by Onverwacth Flora. Pragtige net en skoon huisie (Blushing bride kothuis) in die middel van die berge. Dit is die perfekte naweek weg vir rustigheid en natuurskoon. Die eienaars is vriendelik en gasvry en dit was 'n fees om daar te bly vir 'n naweek, sal verseker weer gaan, dit het ons verwagtinge oortref!

Pragtige berg-uitsigte en natuurskoon sommer om die draai!

Gerieflike bergslaaphuis vir die wat nie wil tent opslaan nie, maar na aan die natuur wil wees. Lekker binnenshuise kaggel en braai wat die kombuis heerlik verwarm het en 'n koue naweek in 'n heerlike kuier- en kosmaak-naweek verander het.

Comfortable mountain lodge for those who don't want to pitch a tent, but want to be close to nature. Nice indoor fireplace and braai that warmed up the kitchen wonderfully and turned a cold weekend into a lovely weekend of socializing and cooking.

'n Lekker aandjie weg in die berge en natuur.

Ons het in die piep klein maar baie romantiese Blushing Bride gebly. Met ons aankoms was alles gereed en reg vir ons. Dit is alles waarvoor ons gehoop het en meer. Daar is genoeg lampe, kerse en vuurhoutjies asook 'n flits vir ons nagtelike besoek aan die langsaan geleë klein huisie.

A nice evening away in the mountains and nature.

We stayed in the tiny but very romantic Blushing Bride. Upon our arrival, everything was ready and ready for us. It is everything we hoped for and more. There are enough lamps, candles and matches as well as a flashlight for our nocturnal visit to the small house next door.

Boesmanskloof is asemrowend!

Lanklaas het ons so iets ondervind, ons asems is weggeslaan deur die pure prag van die omgewing en ons sal sonder twyfel terug keer. Ons akkommodasie in Blushing Bride was spesiaal en interessant. Spesiaal omdat dit baie "cozy" was met die vuurmaakplek voor die bed en interessant omdat ons 'n gas gehad het wat beide aande kom kuier het ... 'n muis wat onder die kombuiskas woon. Ek was 'n bietjie bekommerd oor ons veiligheid, maar dis seker net omdat ons gewoond is aan die stadsdinge. Oor die algemeen het ons baie lekker gekuier en sal definitief (met 'n groter groep) terug wees.

Boesmanskloof is breathtaking!

We have not experienced anything like this for a long time, our breaths were taken away by the sheer splendor of the surroundings and we will without a doubt return. Our accommodation in Blushing Bride was special and interesting. Especially because it was very "cozy" with the fireplace in front of the bed and interesting because we had a guest who came to visit both nights... a mouse that lives under the kitchen cupboard. I was a little worried about our safety, but that's probably just because we're used to the city stuff. Overall we had a great time and will definitely (with a bigger group) be back.

'n Kosbare ervaring in 'n juweel van 'n plek!

'n Ware wegbreekplek. My alleen-verblyf in die rustieke Kliphuisie was 'n verkwikking. Unieke ligging, natuurskoon, geil fynbos en behulpsame eienaars bly 'n mens by.

Very unique.

A very interesting and unique experience. It was however spoiled by a group who had booked out the four nearby semi-detached units and they decided to drink and party until 03:00 am on the Friday night. Won't be returning to Boesmanskloof Onverwacht Flora because of this.

Die stilte was salig. Die natuurskoon was asemrowend.

Die akkommodasie is voldoende, want die basiese benodighede was daar. Die enigste swakpunt was dat die yskas met gas werk en nie baie koud maak nie.
