Loved every minute of our 3 night stay.

Soul restoring, relaxing, peaceful, safe. Lovely hosts, attentive but not intrusive. Bedrooms separate from the kitchen/lounge so early risers don't disturb the late sleepers. Beautiful scenery, hiking, fabulous off-grid rustic accommodation. Definitely would go back again.

Pragtige, rustige plek.

Baie mooi huisie. Alles wat mens nodig kan kry. Ons was gelukkig om sneeu the kry, dit was ongelooflik. Baie lekker kaggel — het aande om speletjies gespeel. Solar werk baie goed, behalwe as dit sneeu. Sou meer wou rondloop, maar ons was letterlik bietjie ingesneeu. Sal maar weer moet draai maak sodat ons ordentlik kan explore. Eienaars is baie behulpsaam en vriendelik.

Beautiful, peaceful place.

Very nice house. Everything one could need. We were lucky to get the snow, it was amazing. Very nice fireplace — spent evenings playing games. Solar works very well, except when it snows. Would have liked to walk around more, but we were literally a bit snowed in. Will have to turn around again so we can explore properly. Owners are very helpful and friendly.

Moeite werd.

Louise greeted us when we got there, gave us her cell phone number should we need anything and then left us to our peace and privacy for the rest of the stay. The cottage has ample heating in the winter and we never slept cold (also a very pleasant hot shower). There is plenty of hiking to do up and down the gravel road (nearby dam as well) and also plenty of places to which you can drive and explore.

Despite the adverse weather conditions, Satori made our stay memorable and the facility was clean and fresh.

We spent most of the time indoors and the fireplace and well equipped cottage was just a pleasure! Beautiful setting, fantastic views and nature and a pleasant, clean and well equipped cottage made our easter weekend a great experience, at a reasonable price. Thank you very much to Louise and her team! Especially in adverse weather conditions, DStv and/ or Wi-Fi connectivity would have been great.

Pragtige ligging.

Lekker wegbreek uit die stad, "off grid" living is iets wat mens aan gewoond moet word, maar steeds baie lekker wegbreek. Hou die weer mooi dop, 'n Sedan voertuig gaan nie werk indien dit reën nie.

Nice break from the city, "off grid" living is something you have to get used to, but still a very nice break. Keep a close eye on the weather, a Sedan vehicle will not work if it rains.

Comfortable, modern, quiet, ideal to switch off from the rat race.

The cottage was one of the best places I've stayed in in the Berg. Comfy bedrooms, great bathroom, well-equipped kitchen. Nice patio and stoep. Did not miss anything that needed electricity. Would visit again without hesitation. And yes do bring 5 bags minimum of wood even more - fireplace and braai and firepit. It's the Berg! Thank you Louise.

Wonderlik, rustig en pragtig!

Ons akkommodasie by Satori was baie lekker. Die omgewing en natuurskoon is pragtig. Die huis is baie netjies en skoon, en keurig toegerus. Dit is op 'n afgeleë plaas, maar ons het geen rede gehad om onveilig te voel nie. Dit was werklik lekker ontspannend en naby genoeg dat ons die middellande ordentlik kon besoek. Ek sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel en self ook weer soontoe gaan.

Wonderful, peaceful and beautiful!

Our accommodation at Satori was very nice. The surroundings and scenery are beautiful. The house is very neat and clean, and well equipped. It is on a remote farm, but we had no reason to feel unsafe. It was really nice and relaxing and close enough that we could visit the midlands properly. I would recommend it to anyone and go there again myself.

Complete rest.

Satori Farm Lodge is accommodation really tucked away, for a time of unwinding and appreciating nature. The views of the hills through every window are just breathtaking. Especially with sunrise. Solar energy is used, and therefor no electricity. The rooms are very creatively decorated by the very friendly owner and have en-suite bathrooms. The kitchen, lounge and sitting rooms are shared with the other guests. The kitchen has everything one might need. On our stay we were the only guests. The creative decor brings a special inviting feeling to every space and one feels like just relaxing and spending time reading or just being. We also took a walk in the forest with the farm dogs and spend time having a picnic in the forest. This is really a place to come and rest and just enjoy. Thank you, I would love to visit again.

Buitengewone verblyf ver uit die stad se lawaai.

Wees bewus dat Satori Farm Lodge op Sonkrag funksioneer. Klein yskassie, vrieshokkie piepklein. Net genoeg vir een bakkie kos. Nie voldoende vir 'n groot groep wat lank wil bly nie. Satori het plek vir 12. Ver van winkels af. As jy alle kos saamneem kan koue berging 'n probleem wees. Neem dalk droë ys en groot koelhouer saam. Gaan slaap vroeg of kuier rondom kerslig. Vergaap jou aan die sterreprag. Stap na die waterval en gaan hou piekniek. Grasdak so neem medikasie vir hooikoors lyers. Wonderlike, buitengewone wegbreek. Ons sal weer wil gaan. Grondpad na Satori is goed. Het nie 4x4 nodig nie.

Out of the ordinary accommodation far from the noise of the city!

Be advised that Satori Farm Lodge works with solar power. Small fridge, freezing compartment very small. Just enough space for one holder with food. Not enough for big group who wants to stay for long. Satori has space for 12. Far from shops. If you take all of your food with you the freezing storage can be a problem. Maybe take dry ice and a big cool box with you. Go sleep early or sit around candle light. Look at the stars. Walk to the waterfall and have a picnic. Thatched roof so take medication for hay fever. Wonderful, extraordinary getaway. We would like to go again. Gravel road to Satori is good. Don't need a 4x4.

Baie mooi geleë plek, stilte en fantastiese panorama.

As 'n mens rus wil vind en so bietjie wil rondloop in die natuur, is dit 'n uitstekende plek. Die verblyfplek het 'n bietjie opknapping nodig, veral die skoonheid. Toe ons daar gebly het, was dit bitterlik koud die eerste aand en alhoewel daar 'n gasheater was, was hy sonder gasbottel en die eienaars was ook nie bereid ons een te gee nie. Die vuur het die plek darem later bietjie warm gemaak. Ek is so 'n bietjie onseker of ek dit kan aanbeveel, maar dit is nog steeds waarde vir die geld wat betaal word.

Very nicely located place, silence and fantastic panorama.

If you want to find rest and walk around in nature, this is an excellent place. The accommodation needs some renovation, especially the beauty. When we stayed there, it was bitterly cold the first night and although there was a gas heater, it was without a gas bottle and the owners were not willing to give us one either. At least the fire warmed the place up a bit later. I'm a little unsure if I can recommend it, but it's still value for money.
