Thank you, we had a very nice stay. The house was neat and clean. All kitchen and braai facilities were there. With one bathroom and no separate toilet it was sometimes a problem. The farm atmosphere was wonderful, as were all the beautiful flowers in the field.

Perfect getaway from the city.
Family of 4 stayed in Kolgans for 2 nights. Lovely farm atmosphere with perfect balance between comfort and unspoilt. House was clean, extremely tidy and very comfortable with treats such as electric blankets on all the beds, air conditioning and WiFi. Bedding was deliciously soft and the house has everything you need. The beauty of flowers just behind the house is fairy-tale beautiful. Hostess is just a WhatsApp away, responds quickly and very helpful. Thank you, we would love to visit again.

We have stayed here for the 2nd time, and will definitely stay again if we are in the area. We feel so at home, the children enjoy the farm, the house has everything you need and is neat and clean. The addition of WiFi (since our last visit) is very convenient, thanks for that. Thank you for allowing us to share a piece of farm life. Wish we could have stayed longer!

The accommodation is of the best and the farm is covered with flowers, too beautiful.
We were kindly received by Wendy. The cottage is very well designed with everything we needed. There is lovely sharp lighting which for me is a big priority in a place to stay. Everything was beautifully clean and tasteful and very artistically designed. We could see that the cottage was planned and built with love. The beautiful wall in shades that match the furniture is breathtakingly beautiful and must have been hours of work. There is a lovely braai area that draws excellently and is large enough to simply serve as a fireplace if needed, and everything in the house. I will definitely go again next year and will definitely recommend the house. Thank you very much, Wendy and team.

Honest farm stay.
We stayed two nights at Rietrylaagte and looked at wildflowers in the surrounding area. Beautiful wildflowers on the farm along roads that can be explored by mountain bike/hike. Wendy kept us informed about bees unexpectedly nesting in our planned unit and made another unit available. Bring bottled drinking water. The children really enjoyed the working farm with thoughtful farm workers, goats and sheep.

Disappointed.
The description clearly mentions that the establishment is "easily accessible by regular sedan". Well, my regular sedan's undercarriage was badly scuffed in places, and I unfortunately got bogged down on my way out. This description is therefore not accurate at all. Furthermore, the communication was poor, and also not accurate. The confirmation email clearly said to go to the main house. When I got there there was no one to be found, and after quite a while and a call or 2 the hostess finally appeared, and informed me that she was sleeping, and that the unit was open and I should go there (not like the epos said to go directly to the main house).

Hallo Morne.
Ongelukkig het ons donderweer reen gehad en wat dan gebeur is dat sand in die pad in spoel. Ongelukkig kon die pad nie betyds reggmaak word nie omdat die trekker wat die bande sleep op die onderste plaas is. Die pad is wel geskik vir sedan motors soos dit in die beskrywing is. Baie gaste wat by ons kuier ry sedan motors en dis die eerste dat enige gas daaroor kla. Die deurskuur deel verstaan ek glad nie. Ongelukkig vind ek jou resensie eensydig en onregverdig want ek het aan jou verduidelik dat ons nie tuis is nie maar dat my dogter wel by die hoofhuis is en jy net daarheen kan gaan as jy probleme ondervind. Ek het vir jou ons inlightingsbrief per e-pos gestuur waarop duidelik staan dat die eenheid oop sal wees met aankoms, wat ook so was.

We stayed in the Patrys cottage. Comfortable and clean. Large indoor barbecue/fireplace. Big shower with nice hot water. Kitchen equipped with everything you need. Wendy responds immediately when you contact her. Beautiful picnic spot with beautiful rock formations and distant views.

We were 2 sisters who only slept there at night (had a wedding near Rietrylaagte).

The house is beautifully decorated inside and very neat and clean, your view outside is breathtaking. We decided we would go back again, this time with the rest of the family, or with friends.

Al wat ek vra is dat gaste die skottelgoed was en wegpak. Jul sal nie glo hoe die eenheid soms gelos word nie. Die res word deur my skoonmakers skoongemaak. Die kontant word gebruik vir diesel, lone en aankope van ekstras wat ek in die eenheid sit soos blitz, aansteker, 2 punt proppe, toiletsproei, daai sjokelade bederf op die bed en om nuwe glase te koop wat gereeld gebreek word. Ons pryse is regtig billik en ons steek maar min in die sak.

It is value for money. Accommodation is very comfortable and elderly-friendly, my mother 88 and was able to move around comfortably.
I would just like to make a suggestion that the route signs are a little better indicated from the N7. No mention is made of whether you are on the right track. Everything else was top notch, will visit the place again. It may also only be indicated where people can see flowers as in the photos provided.

Ek is bly julle het lekker gekuier. Ek sal by my brief wat ek per e-pos stuur, aandui dat sodra jy afdraai van die teerpad jy net reguit aanry vir 5km. Hoop dit sal dan meer duidelik wees vir gaste.
Ek verduidelik gewoonlik waar die mooiste blomme op ons plaas is as gaste vra. Gewoonlik ry die meeste gaste uit na plaaslike dorpe vir blomme kyk omdat ons so sentraal geleë is.
Ons sien uit na julle volgende kuier.

Wendy welcomed us kindly and told us where we should walk and drive on the farm to see the beautiful flowers. What a feast! The house was clean, tidy and very comfortable. It was freezing cold, especially for us who come from a warm world (Hoedspruit), so we finally got a delicious fireplace going. The silence and beautiful view was a delight. We hope to visit Rietry again sometime in the future.

Dankie dat julle by ons gekuier het. Die skoonmaakfooi word ook aangedui op jul kwotasie . Ons gaste eenheid se pryse is baie laag en die skoonmaakfooi is daarom ekstra om die kostes te dek om ons skoonmakers te gaan haal in Klawer, weer weg te bring en hulle dubbele dagfooi te betaal as hulle op Saterdae en Sondae werk. Dit word ook gebruik vir aankoop van waspoeier, krag ens wat nogal 'n groot uitgawe is as mens elke dag die selfsorg eenheid moet skoonmaak. Ons huur ook houtmakers wat betaal moet word vir elke stukkie hout wat hul saag as ou bome wat doodgaan afgemaak word. Ons hout se pryse is egter baie billik teenoor dit wat mens by die winkel of vulstasies koop. Ons Namakwalanders is dankbaar vir die wind want dit is wat die blomsaaitjies versprei sodat daar volgende jaar weer volop blomme kan wees. Daar is ook baie dae wat die wind glad nie waai nie. Ek kan ongelukkig nie onthou van die ontvangs wat deurmekaar was nie, jammer daaroor. Ek hoop dat julle al die mooi plekke besoek het en dat julle weer sal terug keer.

Neat and well-equipped accommodation, with a beautiful view. Just a pity that we struggled to get ahold of the hostess when we experienced a water crisis. All the documentation indicates that they don't live on the farm. There is no cell phone signal and after we drove kilometers to phone her, they ended up living just 30 m from our accommodation.

Hi Ria. Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. Die brief is intussen opdateer nadat ek besef het dat dit nog daar staan dat ek nie op die plaas bly nie. (jammer daaroor) Daar is egter wifi beskikbaar by die eenheid en julle kon daarop gekoppel het en my 'n whatsupp call gegee het soos julle gedoen het vanaf Truck Inn. Daar is ook 2.5km terug na die teerpad vanaf die eenheid sein. Jul het dalk net nie jul selfone dopgehou nie. Die waterpyp wat uitgetrek was, is steeds 'n raaisel maar darem dadelik reggemaak.

Julle was dan self bewus daarvan dat die sleutel op die tafel gelê het, en dat die skoonmaker die knip van die dubbel deur per ongeluk afgedruk het toe sy die ruit skoongemaak het. Ek gaan steriliseer die huis nadat sy skoongemaak het en kyk dat alles in orde is. Ek sit die sleutel op die tafel neer en trek die deur toe. Dis hoe dit elke keer gedoen word. Julle was nie lank daar nie toe het ek kom groet waarna jul gese het die deur was gesluit en dat jul deur die venster geklim het om dit oop te maak. Ek het omverskoning gevra en jul het dit heelhartig afgemaak as niks en dat sulke dinge gebeur. Ons het wel ook kommunikeer per e-pos en daar staan alles duidelik op my brief. Maar ek is bly julle het lekker gekuier en ek hoop dat julle gou weer sal terug keer.

Rietrylaagte is one of those destinations you want to go to if you want to be away from the everyday buzz of the world and detox a little from technology. It's just a long way to drive in to the farm and it's good if you have a vehicle that is tall or can take on sand and stone routes relatively well. The Landscape is absolutely beautiful! a photographer's dream. The hiking trails are breathtaking and the wild animals remain a wow factor. Insects are another story, lol, it's the woods - so take bug repellant and lemon candles for outside. It's a perfect destination for the environment enthusiast. Cell phone reception is literally zero at home and you will have to walk a few km for reception. Detox from technology. Finish your calls and status updates at the gate and enjoy the rest of the visit! My family and I found it extremely challenging, but enjoyed it very much. Thank you Wendy (hostess) for a very welcome reception, communication and quick help if we needed anything.

Wendy is certainly the friendliest and most pleasant hostess I have met in years. Patrys, the house in which we slept for 4 nights, is very neat and well equipped. There is everything from toothpicks to insecticide! All you have to take with you is clothes and food. We thought we would use up the two bags of wood offered for sale but hardly used one as it is about a whole tree that was in the bag. The indoor grill is great. House doesn't even smell like smoke after you barbecue because that chimney can smoke! Enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching how hard they work on the farm. The beautifully cultivated fields are a feast for the eyes! Realize again farming is not for sissies! Definitely going there again to recharge my batteries there. Good luck with your Partridge and farm.

A must "stay here" for every person with a farm in their heart.
Very neat self-catering house. What a great getaway weekend for city kids. The house is beautiful and very tidy, the chocolate was a great treat when you walk into the room. The view from the porch is everything you dream of you live in the city. We had a great barbecue in the indoor braai (so smoked a bit until the fire caught fire) and chatted about the day's 4x4 fun, and the beautiful flowers. There are several signs indicating the 4x4 route. We did not feel unsafe for a single moment. This piece of paradise is calling our name. We will definitely be staying here again soon and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get away from modern day technology. Here you come back to the farm. Nice!

Me and my wife and our daughter, her husband and their two children spent the night on Rietrylaagte on the way from Windhoek to George.
My daughter and her family stayed a second day. We thoroughly enjoyed the generous reception, the neat accommodation and the silence and space. A wonderful overnight accommodation at a particularly reasonable price, even for two people it is value for money.

We had a lovely stay.
It is a beautiful cottage in a very beautiful area. Everything in the house is neat, clean and comfortable. It is located in a beautiful farm and it would be very nice to have more information about the farm, such as the farm size, the workings of the farm etc. In the brochure in the house we were asked not to litter around the house, so it is quite upsetting to see that the farm itself is littered with plastic, broken pipes, asbestos and even empty poison holders. There are beautiful places to walk to, such a special place for nature lovers.

Liewe Luzanne,
Baie dankie vir jou resensie. Ons werk daaraan om die inligtingsboek op te gradeer en ons is besig om inligting te kry rondom die geskiedenis van die plaas. Ongelukkig is my skoonpa baas oor die plaas en ons sukkel om dinge te verander en werk hard daaraan om dit net so mooi skoon te kry soos ons huisie. Volgende keer as jul kom kuier sal jul die verandering sien.
Vriendelike groete,
Wendy

Fantastic accommodation if security is improved.
Beautiful, peaceful farm setting with a nice view. 4x4 routes not clearly marked on farm road, only satellite photos available in house. However, there was no mobile phone reception, the sliding door frame is loose in the frame and no security gates or burglar bars in front of the sliding door/windows. Cold winter evening's use of fireplace/indoor barbecue is a frustration, because if kitchen window and sliding door are not wide open, the smoke fills the whole house. There was also no bottle of fresh water as indicated on communication. Only brackish water available in taps. The owners apparently live elsewhere and could not be easily reached during the stay (no cell phone reception at the cottage). If safety, fireplace problem and personal contact are improved, we can confidently recommend this accommodation.

Heerlik gebly ten spyte van 'n yskoue wind want ons het gekies om buite onder die sterre te braai.

Wonderful stay despite the cold wind because we decided to braai under the stars.
The little house is very neat and has everything you need. The chocolate was a nice trea. I missed a coffee plunger though. In my opinoin they shouldn't charge a cleaning fee of R150 if you only stayed one night and left the place as spotless as the way you found it.

Goeiedag Chrita.
Baie dankie vir jou resensie. Ek sal 'n koffie plunger in die eenheid sit noudat ek sien dat daar 'n behoefte daarvoor is. Ek hoop dat julle weer by ons sal kuier. Die rede vir die skoonmaakfooi is nie vir die skoonmaak van die eenheid nie, maar oor die beddegoed wat dan elke oggend vervang moet word. As ons dus 4-6 nagte aanmekaar besprekings kry vir slegs 1 nag raak dit duur. Ons gebruik die skoonmaakfooi dus vir waspoeier, water, krag en die vervang van beddegoed wat na 'n tyd uitgewas lyk. Ons wil graag vir elke gas wat by ons kuier net die beste gee.
Vriendelike Groete.
Wendy van Zyl
