Oornagstop tussen Gauteng en Kosibaai.

Wonderlike ligging, pragtige uitsig, netjies en geriflik. Sal definitief weer daar vertoef as ons in die omgewing is.

Not bad.

It does indicate gas and solar, but was a bit disappointed to find that the solar gave problems and we had a maximum of 2 hours of light a night before the battery ran flat, was not very impressive to sit in the dark most of the stay.

A perfect little house with the most fantastic views.

This little house is surrounded by nature and hills. The views and the wildlife are just amazing. We all enjoyed the farm very much with the river you can hear in the background and the cattle you can see on the opposite hill. The walks around the farm are just refreshing and around every corner there is such a great new view. The little house has everything you need for a perfect stay. We arrived with a non 4x4, knowing that the website stated you need a 4x4 to get to the house. The owner was so friendly and assisted us to get to the house when we arrived and back to the main road when we left. I would definitely recommend Pivaansbad Plaas. You actually get rest here.

Peace and quiet surrounded by beauty.

What a beautiful place, I loved that there was no one else around for miles and still we felt so safe! It was green everywhere and were surrounded by mountains and could watch the storm roll in. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable. We all slept well and, really, the only complaint would be the mosquitoes which is part of life. The kids got to count cattle in the morning before breakfast which they loved - thank you so much Marius! Wish you only good things going forward and we hope to visit again one day.

Pragtig rustige plek

Die kothuis is regtig pragtig. ’n Klein entjie af, net verby die beeskraal kronkel die rivier met ’n vlakwaterbruggie. Vir seker ’n moet vir dorpskinders en ouers wat weg wil kom van die stad se gewoel. Die omgewing is pragtig.

Beautiful peaceful place

The cottage is really beautiful. A short distance down, just past the cattle pen, the river meanders with a shallow water bridge. Definitely a must for village children and parents who want to get away from the city's hustle and bustle. The environment is beautiful.

Fantastiese natuur-ervaring!

Die ligging van die kothuis is fantasties en die natuurskoon onbeskryflik mooi. Die beste plek om weg te kom en af te skakel sodat jy kan herlaai. Beveel dit werklik aan vir almal in die gejaagde lewe. Baie dankie aan ons gasheer Marius wat al ons behoeftes vervul het en ons so lekker laat bly het, ons sien julle vir seker weer.

Die eenheid was goed uitgerus gewees en baie netjies.

Dit was net ongelooflik warm gewees en gelukkig reg langs ons was Natal Spa waar ons gaan swem het.

Die natuurskoon slaan jou asem weg, die stilte maak jou ore seer.

Toegangsroete nie te onbegaanbaar nie. Die huisie is baie gerieflik en skep 'n ou-plaasatmosfeer. Tog is daar 'n oulike gasstoof, -geyser en -yskassie. Sonkrag vir beligting en selfs selfoon laai. Gerieflike kombuis en buite op die kuierstoep met die mooiste uitsigte, 'n braaiplek. Genoeg wandelroetes teen die rivier sorg vir heerlike tydverdryf. Die hoogtepunt is die absolute stilte en uitsig oor die berge en selfs wild teen die rante en op die gelyktes. Maar die stilte!

The scenery takes your breath away, the silence hurts your ears.

Access route not too impassable. The cottage is very comfortable and creates an old farm atmosphere. Still there is a nice gas stove, geyser and fridge. Solar power for lighting and even mobile phone charging. Comfortable kitchen and outside on the patio with the most beautiful views, a braai area. Plenty of walking routes along the river make for a great pastime. The highlight is the absolute silence and view over the mountains and even wildlife on the ridges and on the plains. But the silence!

Weereens baie jammer oor die pad wat verspoel het na die vorige poging om geskraap te word. Ons het reeds gereël vir 'n padskraper wat binne die volgende 2 weke hier sal wees.

Pivaansbad Plaas is ongelooflik pragtig. Beslis die moeite werd om op jou bucket list te sit. Die kothuis is baie mooi en gerieflik toegerus met alles wat jy moontlik nodig mag hê. Die eienaars en die plaasbestuurder is baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig.

'n Stukkie paradys tussen die berge.

Definitief die perfekte plek om vir 'n paar dae weg te raak en die natuurskoon te beleef. Mooiste uitsig oor die berge. Gasheer was baie vriendelik en het uit sy pad uit gegaan om ons te laat deel voel van die plaaslewe.

Lekker rustig en iets buitegewoon.

Ek is nie seker van Paulpietersburg as toeristebestemming nie, maar koue badplaas, asook Natal Spa is unieke plek om te besoek in die berge langs Phivanerivier. Dit is geskik vir iemand met 'n LAW of 4x4. Marius het gereël vir ekstra hout en ons vuurtjie het lekker gebrand. Ek en 2 vriende het laatmiddag aangekom en weer vroeg gery (ons 'scoot' rondom SA op Chinese scooters).

Nice and quiet and something out of the ordinary.

I'm not sure about Paulpietersburg as a tourist destination, but cold bath farm, as well as Natal Spa are unique places to visit in the mountains along Phivane River. It is suitable for someone with a LAW or 4x4. Marius arranged for extra wood and our little fire burned nicely. Myself and 2 friends arrived late in the afternoon and drove again early (we 'scoot' around SA on Chinese scooters).

Rustige plek.

Die Cottage sit tussen niks en nêrens op 'n werkendE beesplaas. Die Cottage was skoon en netjies, 'n wynbotteloopmaker sal 'n aanwins wees. Was lekker om langs die rivier te stap.

Quiet place.

The Cottage sits in the middle of nowhere on a working cattle farm. The Cottage was clean and tidy, a wine bottle opener would be an asset. Was nice to walk along the river.

Nice cottage and view of farm and mountains.

Nice cottage runs on gas and solar for light and phone charging, everything works. We used it as a base for 4 days to cycle the dirt roads in the area with some lovely view for the fit. Great training for the summer race season.
