Quiet and beautiful.
Quiet in nature. No city hustle and bustle, rest assured, lots of birds jumping and eating in the bushes and trees around the house. Very nice in the evening in the dark on the stoep. Cottage is well furnished.

Yes, very nice. There are just too few standby lights for load shedding. Good value for money.

Very calm.
The place of residence is very neat, but they can easily provide a better braai place. The woods around the cottage need to be cleared more to be able to appreciate the valley. There is no mobile reception.

Teleurstellend.

Disappointing.
Unfortunately, we experienced the place as small and cramped. In the kitchen there are also soft sofas that make movement around the table difficult. There is also only a small fridge and that for 6 people! For all practical purposes there is no hanging space in the rooms. The third room in particular is very small.

The Country Garden 's response
Ons is regtig jammer dat u nie heeltemaal tevrede was met die verblyf nie.
Sunflower Cottage is ons grootste huisie met 3 slaapkamers en 'n kombuis/leefarea. Daar is een groot slaapkamer, een mediumgroot en een net 'n bietjie kleiner. Die groter twee slaapkamers het elk 2 driekwartbeddens en die derde kamer wat bietjie kleiner is, het twee enkel beddens. Ongelukkig kan ons niks doen aan die grootte van die slaapkamer tensy ons mure verskuif. Hierdie huisie is ideaal vir gesinne met kinders. Ons het tydens u drie nagte verblyf nog twee huisies oop gehad en, as u my laat weet het dat daar nie genoeg ruimte was nie, het ons met blydskap vir al drie paartjies hulle eie huisie gegee om in te slaap. Dit sou dieselfde gekos het.
Ons het onlangs sagte banke in die huisie gesit om dit meer gemaklik te maak vir ons gaste om te ontspan. Ek is jammer as dit die beweging om die tafel bemoeilik het, maar my redenasie was dat as mens aan die tafel sit, dan sit niemand op die bank nie. Anders kan 'n mens mos aan die ander kant van die tafel sit terwyl iemand op die bank sit. Ons rede was hier om gemaklike plekke vir sit en lees en gesels te skep. Dus is ons ook jammer vir die ongerief.
Daar is 'n lekker bedekte stoep met nog 'n tafel buite en die meeste mense sit ook maar daar want dan geniet hulle van die mooi natuur om hulle.
Daar is 'n lekker vuurmaakplek in die kombuis en dit vat maar ook 'n deel van die muur, maar maak dit lekker warm en gesellig in die winter.
Ons sal weer gaan kyk en sien hoe ons die leefruimte kan verbeter om dit minder beknop te maak.
Ons maak self as gesin die huisies skoon en stel dit hoog in prys dat ons plekkies altyd baie skoon en netjies is. As daar enige tekortkominge is, hoor ons dit graag van ons gaste sodat ons dit kan regstel en verbeter.
Ons vra verskoning vir die klein yskassie, maar as u vir ons laat weet het dat dit 'n probleem was, het ons dit dadelik uitgeruil met 'n groter yskas wat toe op besoek was by 'n ander huisie.
Ons probeer regtig om waarde vir geld te gee. Ons huisies is almal goed ingerig met alles wat nodig is vir braai en kook. Yskas, mikrogolf, gasstoofies, eetgerei, opwasmiddel, vaddoeke, toaster, ens. Daar is ook skoon handdoeke en toiletpapier. Daar is koffie en tee en suiker beskikbaar in die huisies. Ons het die mooiste natuurskoon om ons. Elke huisie is apart en privaat. Dit is veilig hier. Daar is altyd iemand hier op die plaas om te help. Ons het skape, bokke, konyne, hoenders vir gaste om te voer en melk. Ons het lieflike honde wat waak en ook baie lief is vir ons gaste.
Ons hoop julle sal weer kom bly en ons verbeterde huisies ervaar. Ons is ook tans besig met verbeterings aan al die huisies. Ons swembad is nou ook oorgedoen en is mooi blou met 'n lekker afdak. Sal binnekort nuwe foto's kan deel.
Hoop ons sien julle weer.

The cottage was really lovely amd had everything you need. I don't think the roof is insulated, so it can get very cold inside, but the fireplace makes up for it. It is a lovely place and the walk on the farm was great.

Nice and quiet.
Here children can experience the farm at its best and you can also take the dog along. You should also try the jam that is made on the farm from their own fruits and vegetables. Nice!

Ideal place for weekend and to completely relax.
Our visit was short, but it's very beautiful there. Friendly hostess and neat, clean accommodation. Would definitely recommend it. Gasteplaas is a bit remote so we would have appreciated some milk and of course lamp oil as it was load shedding too.

I felt a bit like Heidi, in the mountains with the animals and the incredible silence. Perfect getaway. And our 1 year old almost played herself to death.
