Just stayed over on the way to Cape for family. Can use their dinner and breakfast.
Had a great stay, peaceful farm atmosphere. Wildebeest cottage has a swimming pool and a braai area outside. Also make a small boma area for a fire. Chalet is equipped with a small kitchen and fridge stocked with some soft drinks, beer and Savanna!

The cottages themselves are luxurious with wooden furniture, an aircon and beautiful decorations. I give the place 10 out of 10.
Isabel is incredibly friendly and the service is exceptional. The food they offer is 10-star quality with a hearty plate of food that makes you sleep well. The gardens are kept neat and to the side. The place is just beyond beautiful.

Enjoyed walking on the farm. Was excited about game on the farm, but couldn't see because the grazed too far. Dirt road needs some attention. Hospitable host and wife and very pleasant stay.

Excellent place to stay for a person in a wheelchair. Delicious and that leg of lamb! Can't wait to visit again.
House well equipped for a person in a wheelchair - Isabel, your suggestion to make the walkway to the house wider and level is a brilliant idea. Thank you for your hospitality - will definitely want to stay there again and maybe go on a hike next time.

Good stop on the long road.
We had a great time at Rietpoort. The farm and beautiful garden were a welcome sight after the long road behind us. The service was very good and the farmers food with lamb and the best sweet potato was absolute value for money. Our unit was a little dusty and needed a good clean. I would definitely recommend Rietpoort to someone who needs an overnight place between the Cape and Gauteng.

Not luxurious, but comfortable and decent, clean and tidy.
Unexpectedly beautiful location. Beautiful homestead and gardens in the scenic Free State. Comfortable, clean and tidy accommodation which all together is the right recipe for a tired traveller. The most delicious complete dinner to write home about (even if it was extra) for much less than any restaurant and that you will never even get at a restaurant! I highly recommend it.

Neat, clean and hospitable! Oasis in the Karoo.
I was a bit scared to book at first after two negative comments. Somebody said they rang the bell but there was no one at reception... but I don't know... There were two bells and when I parked, I was welcomed. Somebody else said it's not luxurious and dirty. Can't believe people tell such lies. It's an oasis in the Karoo, the cottages are clean and gives real farm hospitality. The food is divine. Will highly recommend this place.
