Stunning, amazing staff, luxury.

From the moment we entered the lodge, we experienced pure luxury. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They surprised us with a special anniversary dinner delivered to our room, which was a magical touch. Our unit was absolutely luxurious, with a private hot tub. It was a 5-star experience. We will definitely return and highly recommend this stay to anyone seeking a peaceful bush getaway near Pretoria.

Rus vir die moeë siel.

Dit is ons tweede besoek aan Summerplace en dit het weereens aan al ons verwagtinge voldoen. Ons huisie, Marula, is onlangs binne oorgedoen en was pragtig. Die kol kol warmbad is altyd 'n wenner. Die omgewing is rus vir die siel.

Ek het nie gekuier nie, daar was nie tyd met al die natuurskoon en fietsry nie.

Ek het gekamp vir 3 nagte, en Summerplace se kamp is die beste kamp wat ek ooit by was! Ek het ook my bergfiets saamgehad en elke dag die roetes geniet wat ook baie netjies en skoon gehou word. Daar is meer as 100 km se roetes om te verken! Ek sal beslis weer hier gaan kamp en fietsry, dis 'n fietsry- en wildparadys! Dankie aan die span, julle het 'n juweel van 'n plek.

I didn't visit, there was no time with all the scenery and cycling.

I camped for 3 nights, and Summerplace's camp is the best camp I've ever been to! I also had my mountain bike with me and enjoyed the routes every day, which are also kept very neat and clean. There are over 100 km of trails to explore! I will definitely go camping and cycling here again, it's a cycling and wildlife paradise! Thanks to the team, you have a gem of a place.

Ideal weekend getaway.

An ideal weekend away. We stayed at New Wine cottage with a medium dog. The accommodation is perfect for 4 and was well equipped. The wildlife can be spotted during the drive in and while hiking through the reserve. Will certainly be back! The restaurant and common areas are all very pet friendly and accommodating of furkids.

Rustigheid en uitstekende fasiliteite.

Ons het in die Marula-kothuis gebly omdat dit omhein is en ons ons dierekind kon saamneem. Die plaas leen homself vir verskeie staproetes en ons hondekind het die swem in die verskeie damme terdeë geniet.

We stayed in the Marula cottage because it was fenced and we could take our baby animal with us. The farm lends itself to several hiking trails and our dog thoroughly enjoyed swimming in the various ponds.

Stylvolle verblyf omring deur die natuur, 'n fietsry-paradys.

Ons het tuisgegaan in die pragtige Bushwillow-eenheid. Alhoewel dit 'n koue week was, het ons dit nie gevoel nie, die huisie is modern en toegerus met 'n gesellige kaggel, asook sonpanele. Mooiste dekor en luukse geriewe. Gemaklike beddens en stilte. Lekker kuierstoep. Baie privaat en rustige, veilige omgewing. Ons kinders was mal oor die baie fietsroetes, asook die heerlike warm sjokoladedrankies by die Bike Village. Ons het vooraf 'n paar etes bestel wat smaaklik voorberei was. Die personeel was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Pak gerus 'n skemerkelkie en ry na die "View Point" vir 'n pragtige uitsig oor die reservaat. Ons sal beslis weer teruggaan om meer van die roetes te verken.

Stylish accommodation surrounded by nature, a cycling paradise.

We went home in the beautiful Bushwillow unit. Although it was a cold week, we didn't feel it, the cottage is modern and equipped with a cozy fireplace, as well as solar panels. Most beautiful decor and luxurious amenities. Comfortable beds and quiet. Nice walk on the porch. Very private and quiet, safe environment. Our children loved the many bike routes, as well as the delicious hot chocolate drinks at the Bike Village. We pre-ordered a few meals which were deliciously prepared. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Feel free to pack a cocktail and drive to the "View Point" for a beautiful view of the reserve. We will definitely go back again to explore more of the trails.

Rustig en pragtige omgewing.

Ons het in New Wine Cottage gebly. Pragtig versier binne. Kombuis goed toegerus. Kaggel heerlik vir koue wintersaande. Die KolKol-warmbad was 'n absolute bonus! Die eiendom is omhein so ons kon ons 2 hondjies saam neem. Mooiste bosveld. Helend vir liggaam en siel. Het verdwaal toe ons gaan stap het! Eienaars het ons kom red! Baie, baie dankie! Dit was 'n wonderlike naweek! Baie dankie!

Awesome location for an all year round getway with incredible cyling routes for all levels of skill.

We stayed in a self-catering unit which was recently refurbished. The accomodation was fantastic with everything you require for self-catering and more. Unit was well appointed two bedroom & two bathroom with gas heated water for instant hot water on demand. Open plan kitchen and lounge with good size fridge. Beautifully finished interior which was tasteful and user-friendly. Indoor wood fire kept us warm and cosy at night. Covered outdoor dining area with gas braai, washing machine and additional storage space. Nice size fire pit for creating a warm and cosy atmosphere. Outdoor wood-fired hot tub was a real treat. Off-grid electricity so we were never left in the dark. The cycling routes are well-manicured and provide options for the not-so-fit amateur to the racing snakes. Central located facility with dining area, pub, massage room and pool. Catering available to those requesting it. Nice place to chill after a ride and share a drink. Incredible night sky for those aspiring astronomers or casual stargazers. Some game including, warthog, wildebeest, impala, roan, Sable, giraffe, sebra and more and plenty of bird life. We enjoyed it so much we have already booked our next stay.

Lekker en rustig.

Het Summerplace baie geniet. Van ons aankoms waar ons so hartlik ontvang is tot ons weg is, voel soos familie. Ons het heelwat diere op die plaas gesien, het lekker rondgery op ons eie. Verblyf baie oulik met als wat nodig was, ons het in Shed nr 3 gebly (ons het daardie stoepbank vreeslik geniet). Simone is 'n uithalerkok en ons het heerlik gebrunch Saterdag en haar paasete Sondag was uit die boonste rakke. Sal Summerplace beslis aanbeveel, ons het heerlik gerus. Pragtige boma ook!

Really enjoyed Summerplace. From our arrival where we were received so warmly until we left, felt like family. We saw a lot of animals on the farm, had fun driving around on our own. Very cute accommodation with all that was needed, we stayed in Shed no 3 (we really enjoyed that porch sofa). Simone is an outstanding cook and we had a delicious brunch on Saturday and her Easter dinner on Sunday was top notch. Would definitely recommend Summerplace, we had a great rest. Beautiful boma too!

Wonderlike liggeng en vriendelike mense.

Ons het net een aand oorgeslaap en die kampfasiliteite gebruik. Die fasiliteite is basies en die engiste lig is by die ablusie. Ongelukkig het die warm water in die dames nie gewerk nie en in die mans het net een stort warm water gehad. Ons het aandete en ontbyt daar genutting en dit was uit die boonste rakke. Die eienaars is baie vriendelik. Daar is min of geen selfoonopvangs, so maak gereed vir bietjie rus.

Wonderful location and friendly people.

We only stayed one night and used the camping facilities. The facilities are basic and the worst light is at the ablution. Unfortunately the hot water in the ladies didn't work and in the men only one shower had hot water. We had dinner and breakfast there and it was top notch. The owners are very friendly. There is little or no cell phone reception, so prepare for some rest.

Onbeskryfbaar wonderlik.

Die rustigheid val mens op die oomblik as jy deur die hek is. Ons het in Marula Cottage gebly, wat baie privaatheid bied en die beste van alles was heeltemal omhein, sodat ons hondekind veilig was. Die staproetes bied soveel besigtiging en ons hondekind het dit terdeë geniet. Al bly ons 'n maand daar dink ek nie ons sou al die paadjies kon verken nie. Ons het nie baie wild gesien nie ,maar dit was nogsteeds net wat ons nodig gehad het om die batterye te herlaai. Al klaar besig om die volgende kuier te beplan.

Indescribably wonderful.

The tranquility falls upon you at the moment when you are through the gate. We stayed in Marula Cottage which offered a lot of privacy and best of all was fully fenced so our pooch was safe. The hiking trails offer so much viewing and our dog thoroughly enjoyed it. Even if we stayed there for a month, I don't think we would be able to explore all the paths. We didn't see much wildlife, but it was still just what we needed to recharge the batteries. Already busy planning the next visit.

Was 'n heerlike ervaring met kinders en klein kinders. Alles baie skoon en netjies. Fietsry roetes baie lekker. Net jammer dat by York's view is daar nie meer gelyk roetes waar die klein kinders ook kan ry nie.

Ons sal graag meer roetes bo (york's view) hê waar klein kinders ook kan ry. Daar was baie perdebye- gelukkig nie agressief. Maar ons sal weer gaan - huis was baie skoon en uitleg baie gerieflik vir 4 gesinne met die 2 slaapkamers wat aangrensende kamers het.

Was a wonderful experience with children and small children. Everything very clean and tidy. Cycling routes very nice. It's just a pity that at York's view there are no more level routes where the small children can also ride.

We would like to have more routes above (york's view) where small children can also ride. There were a lot of wasps - fortunately not aggressive. But we would go again - house was very clean and layout very convenient for 4 families with the 2 bedrooms having adjoining rooms.

Beautiful place for a group of friends.

We really enjoyed our stay at York's View. The accommodation had plenty of amenities for entertainment (a swimming pool and hot tub) and self-catering purposes (gas stove, large fridge and braai stand). The bedrooms are well equipped with blankets and bathing towels. The combined beds are comfortable, and you can feel free to suitably accommodate all 12 guests. There are also extra daybeds. If you follow the pinned location you are sent by the owners, you should arrive there with no challenges. The only problem we had was one of our cars getting stuck in the sand. Please do make a plan regarding the sand for those travelling with small cars. Because where the sand gave us problems, there was no network and if we were just travelling as ladies, I'm not sure we would have managed. Please also consider making the game drive longer or increasing the routes, maybe then we would have seen more animals. We only managed to see the giraffes when we were leaving after checking out. Overall, Summerplace Game Reserve is a beautiful place with lovely sunsets. The caretaker (Respect) was very much helpful, he went out of his way to ensure we were okay and comfortable. I would definitely recommend it and plan to make another booking with them in the near future.

Summerplace is 'n juweel van 'n plek in 'n pragtige, stil, veilige natuurresservaat vol dierelewe, waar na hartelus gestap, fietsgery en geswem kan word.

Vriendelike, goeie diens. Marula Cottage (waar ons tuisgegaan het) was skoon, stylvol, netjies, privaat, goed toegerus, WiFi, geen kragonderbrekings (sonkrag), gasgeisers en omheining vir ons twee hondjies om heerlik in rond te beweeg wanneer ons gaan fietsry het en Vaalwater besigtig het. Heerlike stil omgewing, waar troeteldiere ook welkom is om mee saam te gaan stap op volop voetpaadjies. 'n Mens word bederf met die mooiste sonsopkomste, sonsondergange en sterrehemel. Ekstra beskikbaar was 'n heerlike wildrit met lekker versnapperings wat baie interessante wild- en voëlbesigtiging opgelewer het. Ons gesin het baie goed uitgerus en gaan beslis weer by Summeplace bespreek!

Summerplace is a gem of a place in a beautiful, quiet, safe nature reserve full of animal life, where you can walk, cycle and swim to your heart's content.

Friendly, good service. Marula Cottage (where we stayed) was clean, stylish, tidy, private, well equipped, WiFi, no power outages (solar), gas geysers and fencing for our two dogs to roam around in when we went cycling and saw Vaalwater . Lovely quiet environment, where pets are also welcome to go for a walk with them on plenty of footpaths. One is spoiled with the most beautiful sunrises, sunsets and starry skies. Extra available was a delicious game drive with tasty snacks which resulted in very interesting game and bird watching. Our family had a very good rest and will definitely book with Summeplace again!

Onvergeetlike ervaring in die Bosveld.

Ons het die lekkerste naweek gehad, van ons aankoms tot ons vertrek was absoluut heerlik. Dave en Simone is uitstekende gashere en ons is dankbaar dat hulle hulle juweel en drome saam met ons gedeel het. Vir ons 4-pote (wat vooraf gereël was) was dit hemel op aarde. Die eenhede is smaakvol, skoon en volledig toegerus met als wat jy benodig. Daar's heerlike staproetes en vir seker volgende keer bring ons die fietse saam. Mooiste sonsondergange en ongerepte natuur. Ons sal vir seker weer gaan kuier en wens hulle alle sterkte toe met al hul drome vir die toekoms.

There are wonderful hiking trails and for sure next time we will bring the bikes with us. Most beautiful sunsets and untouched nature. We will definitely visit again and wish them the best of luck with all their dreams for the future.

Most beautiful sunsets and lovely viewing spots. Unspoilt nature, with an old-world farm feeling. Take it easy, walk and hang around the campfire late at night. Thank you Dave and Simone for sharing your piece of Africa with us! Can't wait to show our friends.

Veeedsaam, vars, skoon en netjies.

Vriendelik ontvangs, vars, veeedsaam. Skoon en netjies. Het my 2 pugs saamgevat met vooraf reëling. Absoluut goed ingerig. Die wooneenheid is perfek, miskien nog beter as my eie woning. Omgewing wonderlik om te ontdek my heerlike staproetes. Vreedsaam en rusting, net wat die dokter voorgestel het.

Lively, fresh, clean and tidy.

Friendly welcome, fresh, well-fed. Clean and tidy. Took my 2 pugs with prior arrangement. Absolutely well appointed. The apartment is perfect, maybe even better than my own home. Environment wonderful to discover my lovely hiking trails. Peaceful and restful, just what the doctor suggested.

Onvergeetlike ervaring in 'n bosveld paradys.

Kan vir niks meer vra nie, alles was perfek! Die huis (Summerview) is absoluut pragtig en smaakvol. Die vriendelike gashere Simone en Dave het ons, sowel as ons hondekinders baie welkom laat voel. Die asemrowende sterre is 'n groot bonus. Sien reeds baie uit na ons volgende kuier!

Unforgettable experience in a bushveld paradise.

Can't ask for anything more, everything was perfect! The house (Summerview) is absolutely beautiful and tasteful. The friendly hosts Simone and Dave made us, as well as our dog children, feel very welcome. The breathtaking stars are a huge bonus. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Refreshing and different from the day to day busy life.

The pictures on the website need to be updated because the place looks nothing like in the pictures.

Hi Prudence

Thank you for your feed back. We always appreciate it.

It would be great to know which pics need to be updated. And how they didn't reflect your little apartment #2. This will help us.

Many thanks and enjoy your evening.

Regards

Simone

I recommend Summerplace Farm Stay.

We stayed in Maroela Cottage and we loved it. If you are looking to be in nature away from the noise of city life this is the place for you. Beautifully furnished cottage with fully stocked kitchen. We did appreciate the fact that both the rooms had ceiling fans and there is always a cool breeze through the cottage because of the fact that the porch double doors can be opened. The porch is a lovely place to sit and read or have your meal. The owners had a Weber which was super easy to use for a quick braai and a lovely outside fireplace. We would suggest that you place an axe with which to chop the wood up a little smaller or maybe just making a smaller kindling pile for us city folk. Our trip arranged by the host to the rhino feed was an unforgettable experience. Friendly owners, beautiful farm - we wish you all success in your future endeavours. Note: Vaalwater Spar has more than just the basics if you forget something.

Mooiste stilste sterrekyk in jare.

Die Maroela cottage waar ek gewoon het was fantasties toegerus, netjies, skoon en die omgewing stil. Dit was ‘n heerlike meevallertjie om sulke mooi sterre te kon sien!

Most beautiful peaceful stargazing in years.

The Maroela cottage I stayed in was fantastically equipped, neat, clean and the environment quiet. It was a wonderful windfall to see such beautiful stars!
