Die rustigheid en kalmte het ons vreeslik goed gedoen. Heeltemal ontspan.

Ons het heerlik gebly - die huis was perfek skoon en al die fasiliteite was in 100% werkende toestand. Die plaas is goed geleë en die stilte is perfek om weg te kom van die stede se geraas.

The peace and quiet did us a lot of good. Totally relax.

We had a wonderful stay - the house was perfectly clean and all the facilities were in 100% working order. The farm is well located and the silence is perfect to get away from the cities' noise.

Afgesonder, rustig, natuurskoon. Die perfekte plek vir gaste wat die buitelewe geniet.

Dit is die beste verblyf wat ek moontlik kon kies. Ek is altyd opsoek na afgesonderde plekkies, en hierdie was so perfek. Mense oor die algemeen, dit sluit my in, het so gewoond geraak aan luuksheid en gemak, dat ons vergeet waarsonder ons kan regkom. Die kothuis is fantasties ingerig met 'n solar geyser en opgegaarde reënwater en die plaas is ideaal vir enige iemand wat die natuur geniet, wil stap, bergfiets ry, of net die uitsig wil geniet. Dankie aan Alex en Sean, ons sal beslis weer kom kuier!

Secluded, peaceful, scenic. The perfect place for guests who enjoy the outdoors.

This is the best accommodation I could possibly choose. I'm always looking for secluded spots, and this was so perfect. People in general, that includes me, have become so used to luxury and comfort, that we forget what we can do without. The cottage is fantastically furnished with a solar geyser and collected rainwater and the farm is ideal for anyone who enjoys nature, wants to walk, mountain bike, or just enjoy the view. Thanks to Alex and Sean, we will definitely be visiting again!

Die perfekte wegbreek van die stad af.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage is perfek vir iemand wat privaatheid soek weg van die vinnige stadslewe. Alles is baie basies en baie mooi. Selfoonsein is meeste van die tyd nie beskikbaar nie. Jy het wel 'n 4x4 nodig om by die Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage uit te kom. Sean en Alex is beide baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Neat, stunning views, isolated.

The road to get to the cottage can only be done with a 4x4 with good clearance. The cottage is neat and clean and has all that you need. Spectacular views. The tin roof crackles in the heat, which can wake you if you're not used to it.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage 's response

Hi Joshua, thank you for staying with us. Glad you enjoyed the weekend in the mountains and yes, the roof contracts and expands, it makes a noise. I do hope it did not keep you awake for too long. Come again, greetings from the Waterberg, Sean and Alex.

Awesome.

This was our second stay and we will be back for sure. You do need a high clearance vehicle to reach the cottage and 4x4 will be advised. The cottage is self sufficient with a solar powered fridge-freezer and hot water shower. Spotless clean and super comfortable bed. Alex and Sean are great hosts.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage 's response

Thank you,

We are looking forward to welcoming you back!
We are located halfway between Thabazimbi and Vaalwater, approx 50km on dirt, a high clearance vehicle makes the journey a lot easier.
We can arrange a pick up at the gate and take you up in the gameviewer and take you the last 7km into the mountains to the cottage.

Just let us know in advance.

Stilte en isolasie met die ongelooflikste uitsig.

Die eenheid is baie gerieflik, netjies en goed toegerus. Die ligging hoog in die berg is regtig besonders. Pragtige uitsig oor die Waterberg, met die mees ongelooflike sonsondergange. Dit loop op sonkrag en die water word voorsien deur 'n reënwatersisteem. Regtig groen! As jy rustigheid in die natuur soek, kan jy nie beter nie. Die wildsplaas het heelwat diere en 'n verskeidenheid eko-sones wat elkeen sy eie besondere ervaring bydra. Jy kan lekker loop of net sit en die uitsig geniet. Die paaie is klipperig in die berg gedeelte, maar steeds rybaar met die regte voertuig.

Silence and isolation with the most incredible view.

The unit is very comfortable, tidy and well equipped. The location high in the mountain is really special. Beautiful view of the Waterberg, with the most incredible sunsets. It runs on solar power and the water is supplied by a rainwater system. Really green! If you're looking for tranquility in nature, you can't do better. The game farm has many animals and a variety of eco-zones, each of which contributes its own special experience. You can have a nice walk or just sit and enjoy the view. The roads are stony in the mountain section, but still drivable with the right vehicle.

The cottage is simply divine, it is very remote but exactly what we expected.

We went for a hike, the scenery is breathtaking. Sean and Alex were great hosts, I highly recommend it for any couple! The cottage was clean, the bed was comfortable, we felt totally safe and at ease in our environment. We went for a drive with our hosts which was very interesting, Alex and Sean know their animals which are very well looked after. The hike was well marked give the lush growth, it was easy enough to locate the white dots if we veered off. The weekend was exactly what we both needed.

Golden solitude

The long dirt road (if there are people who are not birders) is worth every meter. Location of the cottage is superb, trails are wonderful, game is invigorating to watch. Staying in an off the grid dwelling brought one back to "What Is actually essential" in one's life and was very easy to adapt to. Sean and Alex were super hosts.

Rus vir die siel.

Die plek forseer jou om te rus. Die skoon lug en natuur om jou, maak jou hart rustig. Dit laat jou weer kans sien vir die besige lewe. Die eco-verblyf is fantasties. Daar is sein. Nie goed nie, maar goed genoeg vir noodgevalle. Dis koud in die aande, maar die vere-duvet maak jou vinnig-vinnig warm. Die vriendelike gasvrou laat jou so tuis voel. Die 5 km lange staproete na 'n baken op die berg se uitsig is asemrowend. Jy kort wel 'n 4x4-voertuig om by die mountain cottage uit te kom. Sal beslis teruggaan. Dankie vir die bederf.

The place forces you to rest. The clean air and nature around you, calms your heart. It gives you another chance for the busy life. The eco-accommodation is fantastic. There is signal. Not great, but good enough for emergencies. It's cold in the evenings, but the feather duvet warms you up quickly. The friendly hostess makes you feel so at home. The 5 km long walking trail to a beacon on the mountain's view is breathtaking. You do need a 4x4 vehicle to get to the mountain cottage. Will definitely go back. Thanks for the treat.

Mountain cottage. Serenity, tranquillity, diversified - you will not be left untouched. One of those places in our beautiful country that leaves you with a lack of words, emotions you didn’t even know you had. You will become aware of the the materiality of this world.

The peace, serenity, isolation and stunning views was exactly what we were looking for.

Both Sean and Alex are most hospitable hosts and made us feel very comfortable. The attention to detail in the cottage is excellent. The provision of a USB port meant we could stay in WhatsApp communication with friends and family and make them jealous with morning and evening views over the Waterberg. There are written directions (which in places we found a little ambiguous) on how to get from the cottage to the main gate - a map in addition to the written directions would be a help.

Ongelooflike uitsig, rus vir die siel.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage was 'n ongelooflike ervaring. Ons was bevoorreg genoeg om die mees ongelooflike donderstorms te beleef wat jy letterlik vanaf 'n 360 grade aanloop kan sien opbou. Die stilte en vrede is presies wat mens nodig het om jou batterye te herlaai en om so bietjie "off the grid" te wees vir 'n paar dae laat jou regtig ontspan. Die beste van alles was die vuurvliegies in die aand! Ons sal beslis weer gaan!

Luukse eenvoud.

Syringa Sands se Mountain Cottage sal jou asem wegslaan. Totaal afgesonder en heeltemal selfonderhoudend. Baie eenvoudig, tog luuks. Die uitsig is iets om te beleef. Die staproetes sal jou lank kan besig hou. Wees daarvan bewus dat jy 'n lang stuk grondpad gaan moet ry - die laaste gedeelte van Bakkerspas is nie die gemaklikste rit nie. Maar met 'n 4x4 is dit niks. Ek beveel Syringa Sands sterk aan!

Luxurious simplicity.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage will take your breath away. Totally secluded and completely self-sufficient. Very simple, yet luxurious. The view is something to experience. The hiking trails will keep you busy for a long time. Be aware that you will have to drive a long stretch of dirt road - the last section of Bakkers Pass is not the most comfortable ride. But with a 4x4, it's easy. I highly recommend Syringa Sands!

Perfect hideaway.

What a beautiful place. We felt like we were the only two people on the planet. The mountain cottage really is the most perfect place to get away from it all - a beautifully designed little cab surrounded by incredible scenery, gorgeous bush and under the densest canopy of stars we've experiences in quite a while. The cottage may be "off the grid" but we had everything we needed, with the addition of some lovely extra touches. Couldn't have asked for more.

Afgesonder en asemrowend.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage is plek vir mense wat soek na stilte en afsondering. As jy wil wegkom van alles en almal en weer die waarde van eenvoud wil ervaar dan is dit die plek vir jou. Die 50 km grondpad is nie ideaal vir sedan motors nie, maar dit is deel van die ervaring.

Secluded and breathtaking.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage is a place for people looking for silence and seclusion. If you want to get away from everything and everyone and experience the value of simplicity again then this is the place for you. The 50 km dirt road is not ideal for sedan cars, but it is part of the experience.

I want to describe the Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage as the best spot to view the beautiful Waterberg.

We would like to suggest some items in the kitchen, namely a casserole, iron cookware for the open fire, hot water was a minor problem, washing dishes and to shower at the same time.

Syringa Sands Mountain Cottage 's response

Dear Pietro,

Thank you for your feedback.

We have since added 2 different potjies and an oven dish. Indeed, as the hot water is powered by the sun, eco-friendly sometimes means one thing at a time.

Regards,
Alex from Syringa Sands
