Idyllic.
Fantastic location, enjoyed the camping area very much, conveniently laid out, everything needed is provided, feels like being in the forest especially in the evenings. Beautiful hiking trails around the corner and can go canoeing in the river opposite.

The most homely place and friendliest hosts you'll find, definitely a place you'd return to.
I had to go to the Garden Route for business and this was the first time I stayed at The Old Trading Post. Each morning I woke up satisfied and wanted to stay longer. The host and hostess are super friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home. Everything you need is there and you are treated each morning to a fantastic breakfast with the most delicious freshly baked bread. What's more is that it's pet friendly, so if I go there in the future for leisure I can bring my dogs.

Nice setting, but cramped room.
The last night of our 10-day holiday during which we spent the night in five different places was also by far the most expensive; therefore we expected something special. Unfortunately, this was not the case. The room was cramped, one part of the wooden floor cracked terribly and the bathroom was particularly small. Also, this room only has half a stable-type door, which means that light from sunrise already shines through the transparent roof sheet into the room and wakes you up. The place was indeed neat and the garden and surroundings beautiful, but the posted requests in the room that one save power and internet data do not suit a place in this price range for me.

Incredibly nice stay. The "rustic" farm feel is fantastic. You're a bit far from everything, but it's perfect if you're looking for peace and quiet.
