Peaceful farm away from the hustle and bustle of a town.

I had a great stay in the Oak Cottage. I was in the area for a three-day sporting event, so I mostly needed a convenient location and a comfortable place to sleep. The cottage was clean and tidy, and the shower was hot. The kitchen had everything I could have needed to cook meals, and more. The farm is quiet and peaceful. I liked being away from the hustle and bustle of Plett, but still close enough. The location was absolutely perfect for me. I would definitely stay here again when I am next in the area.

A lovely farm stay to relax and reconnect with friends and nature.

We were accommodated in a larger unit which suited us perfectly. Loved the freedom of space and simplicity away from the maddening crowd. Enjoyed by all, including the dogs, close enough to all tourist attractions.

Heerlike plaas atmosfeer - naby en vêr genoeg van die dorp af .

Ons het die 3-slaapkamer huisie gekry - baie oulike dekor - baie skoon, heerlike plaas atmosfeer - die 2 x groot honde het kom "kuier" en was baie oulik - Ons het lekker gebly daar!

Ons het lekker gebly.

Ons verblyf was vanaf Saterdag 10/8/2024 tot Maandag 12/8/2024. Dis net die WiFi het nie gewerk nie. Ons het eers Sondag aand WiFi gehad. Daarna het dit baie goed gewerk. Daar kort 'n deksel vir die mikrogolfoond om kos warm te maak, dat dit nie spat nie. Susanna was baie behulpsaam.

We had a nice stay.

Our stay was from Saturday 10/8/2024 to Monday 12/8/2024. It's just the WiFi didn't work. We only had WiFi on Sunday night. After that it worked very well. There is a lack of a lid for the microwave oven to heat food, so that it does not splash. Susanna was very helpful.

Blissful, restful and value for money.

We wanted to be isolated in our own space, and we got it. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and waking to the sound of the cows and birds was such a treat. Having our own space with a kitchen was exactly what we were looking for, and the price was within our budget and definitely value for money. The braai facility was welcoming, and I had my boys, who live in the area, around with their families for dinner. The WiFi was an added bonus and definitely a requirement in this day and age. Our host was helpful and friendly, as were the dogs who spent time with us. Just a suggestion, perhaps a large frying pan could be added to the kitchen and a few items of Tupperware, along with one or two spare black bags for the bin. We also spoke to our host about the hot water, which wasn't getting hot enough, and she advised that she would have someone come and attend to it.

We had a lovely stay.

The house was tidy, but not well cleaned. The kitchen lacked plastic containers, a container for braai, salad bowels. The kitchen sink in the living area kitchen needs to be replaced. It is full of black stains or mould. The smaller rooms need a table or shelf for people to put their make-up, brushes, etc on. They have just a bed and a side table. One rooms cupboard has no hanging rails in it. It is a lovely house ,but the owner needs to maintain it properly it is . It is not well kept. Needs some TLC. The 1st kitchen sink taps don't work properly either. The patio makes the house. We enjoyed our stay.

Dit was nie wat ons verwag het nie. Aanwysings na die plek is geen, veiligheid is daar nie sprake van nie. 'n Tipiese plaas-cottage met honde wat jou geselskap hou.

Ons moes vra vir koffie, suiker en melk.

It was not what we expected. There are no directions to the place, there is no question of safety. A typical farm cottage with dogs to keep you company.

We had to ask for coffee, sugar and milk.

Baie mooi ligging maar ongelukkig was die groot huis heel moontlik net na die vorige toeriste skoongemaak en nie net voor ons aankoms nie.

Ongelukkig was die huis maar stowwerig met ons aankoms. Sal voorstel weens die ligging dat die huis maar eerder skoongemaak word op die dag van aankoms. Dit sal ook gaaf wees as die ysbakkies reeds volgemaak en gevries is met aankoms. Die uitsig en ligging is egter mooi.

Very nice location but unfortunately the big house was most likely only cleaned after the previous tourists and not just before our arrival.

Unfortunately, the house was dusty upon our arrival. Would suggest due to the location that the house is instead cleaned on the day of arrival. It would also be nice if the ice trays were already filled and frozen upon arrival. However, the view and location are beautiful.

Stil omgewing, het lekker uitgerus.

Die plaasatmosfeer en stilte was vir ons aangenaam, net die 3 km grondpad was 'n uitdaging na die reën.
