Tibani Nature Reserve

A hidden slice of paradise.

My recent getaway to this nature reserve was nothing short of breathtaking. Nestled in the heart of serene hills and untouched landscapes, this cozy retreat offered the perfect escape from the daily grind. The cabin is charming and well-positioned, blending seamlessly with the surrounding wilderness. Waking up to panoramic views of the mountains and witnessing the sunset over the hills was a soul-stirring experience. The private pool area, shaded by rustic wood beams, added an extra touch of luxury where I could relax and soak up the peaceful atmosphere and sun. For nature lovers, the location is ideal – teeming with wildlife, and a calming silence broken only by birdsong and the wind brushing through the greenery. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, and you reconnect with yourself and the earth.

Dit was wonderlik!

Ons het vreeslik lekker gebly! Die huisie is weggesteek tussen die berge met die mooiste wild op die plaas. Daar is lekker, growwe paaie op die plaas wat met 'n 4x4 gery kan word, en met die fietse is dit net so lekker, maar jy moet jou storie op die fiets ken, die klim is lekker steil. Daar was ook baie grondpaaie in die omgewing waarop mens lekker kan gaan fietsry. Ek kan hierdie plekkie vir seker aanbeveel!

Heerlik gerus - kos vir ons siele.

Baie dankie vir 'n heerlike naweek op Tibani Nature Reserve. Alles was perfek - die ligging, die mooi uitsig op die berge en die bokke wat ons kon sien toe ons gaan stap. Botterboomhuisie is baie netjies en goed ingerig - ons het niks gekort nie. Nogmaals dankie en ons sal vir seker weer kom kuier!

Magical secluded cabin in a beautiful landscape.

A beautiful spot, you truly feel like you have the whole reserve to yourself. Great value for money and has everything you need. Got to see zebras and springbok off the stoep while having our morning coffee. A great weekend getaway.

Die kamp is great, sal beslis weer daar wil gaan uitspan.

Beslis. Sal weer in die toekoms soontoe gaan.

Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek van alles en sal beslis weer gaan.

Dit was 'n heerlike paar dae.

Absolutely delightful!

Our stay at Tibani Nature Reserve was absolutely delightful! From the moment we arrived, the host greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. Her hospitality and friendliness added an extra special touch to our experience. The views from the reserve were simply breathtaking, offering a stunning backdrop of natural beauty. We enjoyed peaceful moments watching the animals in their natural habitat and going on hikes to explore the area. The host was always available to offer guidance and share her knowledge of the reserve and its wildlife. The Tibani Nature Reserve Facebook page was incredibly informative. We saved screenshots of the animals she had posted about, which helped us identify and spot many of them during our stay. Leaving Tibani Nature Reserve was difficult, as we had such a wonderful time. We are already looking forward to our next visit and can't wait to return to this little piece of paradise. Thank you for making our stay so memorable!

Vreedsaam, gemaklik, natuurskoon.

Heerlik stil en rustig. Pragtige natuurskoon en die perfekte kamp om rus vir die siel te kry.

Uitgerus na 'n wonderlike naweek.

Die verblyf en ligging was presies wat ons gesoek het. Die swembad was 'n groot plus met Vrydag se 35 grade en die kaggel binne was 'n wenner met Saterdag se donderweer en reën. Die WiFi was ook 'n wenner. Sanet was 'n aangename gasvrou met baie volledige inligting voor ons aankoms.

Baie spesiaal.

Vir die natuurliefhebber 'n moet! Mooiste ligging, baie skoon en netjies en volledig toegerus. Word sterk aanbeveel. Baie behulpsame gasvrou.

Lekker gerus by Tibani!

So lekker gebly in die pragtige Montagu omgewing. Die huisie het alles wat jy sou nodig hê en die plonspoel op die stoep was amazing gewees. As jy hou van stilte en pragtige natuurskoon sal jy baie lekker hier bly. Sanet en Pieter is baie vriendelik en hulle gaan uit hulle pad om die verblyf vir mens so gemaklik en lekker as moontlik te maak. Ek sal beslis weer by Tibani gaan bly.

Peaceful, quiet, great nature.

Wonderful and very scenic.

Beautiful location and really quite wonderful flora!

The accommodation was beautifully located, the flora was quite something to behold, and we felt most privileged to be alone in such a quiet space. The night sky was awesome! The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The WiFi was mostly very stable.

Great for relaxation and unwinding.

It was a very relaxing stay, just what we needed. The tranquility and scenery were amazing.

Die uitsig, rustigheid, stilte, vars lug was hemels.

Die huisie is netjies en goed ingerig. Die troppie springbokke het tot so 50 treë van die huisie gekom. Al wat die stilte verbreek het, was die prettige voëlsang. Ongelukkig moes ons met aankoms hoor dat die sonverhitte plonspoel buite werking was en sou die nodige pype eers na ons verblyf beskikbaar wees om dit te herstel. Die water in die plonspoel was deurentyd baie koud en kon ons dit dus nie gebruik nie. Ons kon ook nie die houtvuurwarmbad warm kry nie, al het ons die verbale en geskrewe instruksies gevolg. Dit bly egter steeds 'n voorreg om daardie rustigheid en mooi uitsig te kon ervaar.

Kuier was baie lekker.

Baie lekker gebly. Minimale probleme ondervind.

Wonderful stay! Picture perfect surroundings!

Had a wonderful stay. Host is excellent! We'll be back again!

A little paradise.

We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility and the beautiful view. The cottage was so cozy and having the little wooden stove inside warmed the place up while it was freezing outside. Sanet went out of her way to make us feel comfortable, and even offered us help with a flat wheel. It was lovely to walk the 4x4 track and the view from the top was stunning. Also enjoyed the blesbok and a few springbok that ventured close to the cottage.

Awesome.

Awesome. Tien uit tien vir Sanet.

Remoteness unbeatable.

We enjoyed our stay. We will go back.

Amazing.

Beautiful place to stay. A break away from it all.

It was an awesome experience, loved the peaceful atmosphere and the location.

It's a beautiful place, just like in the pictures. I would definitely recommend it to all my friends and family and I would definitely book it again.

Lekker wegbreek uit die stad.

Sanet, die gasvrou, is baie vriendelik. Ons het die natuur baie geniet. Daar is 'n skoon toilet en stort en die plaasdammetjie bied lavenis as dit te warm raak. Die WiFi was 'n verrassing. Baie voëllewe. Die Springbokkies wei naby. Mongoose het kom kuier. Daar is 'n koggelmandertjies wat elke dag op die houtheining kom uithang. Mooiste sonsondergange en sterrekyk! Net eenvoudig hemels as jy van kamp hou sonder fieterjasies (daars nie krag nie, maar dis mos nie noodsaaklik as jy lief is vir kamp in die natuur nie) En dit is privaat! Jy het nie kamp-bure nie.

Peace and tranquility at its best.

The perfect spot for a night or two away from the hustle and bustle of city life!

Perfect tranquility.

We loved the peaceful environment and enjoyed walking in the reserve. The house is perfect for 2 adults and 2 children, it would be a bit small for 4 adults.

Salige stilte!

Ons het heerlik gekamp by Tibani. Lekker warm water en skoon ablusie. Sanet en Patrick het selfs kom help om ons kar te "jump start".

Was restful and nice. Mostly peaceful away from everything.

Just the roads to the houses are not so good. It's bad driving on them as they make the stay uncomfortable. Seeing the sun with your pool on your front porch is amazing.

Stukkie goud. Een met die natuur.

Baie lekker gekuier. Sanet het ons baie welkom laat voel.

Pragtige huisie, klein maar met kunstigheid en goeie smaak ingerig.

Ons was 2 vriende wat vir ons jaarlikse motorfietstrippie drie aande daar geslaap het. Die afgesonderdheid in die natuur was ongelooflik lekker. Die plonspoel na 'n warm dag 'n lafenis. Gaan verseker weer saam met ons vrouens! Sanet doen moeite vir haar gaste. Een van my gunstelingplekke!

Absoluut fantasties.

Pragtige, privaat huisie in die berge, omring deur soveel natuurskoon, vygies, voëls en verskillende boksoorte. Wat meer wil 'n mens hê?

Sanet het ons met soveel gasvryheid ontvang, ons bederf met lekkernye op ons bed, en als was so mooi en skoon. Perfekte omgewing vir goeie rus en wegbreek.

Tibani is 'n pragtige plek, en die rustigheid en natuurskoonheid het bygedra tot 'n heerlike naweek.

Rustig, geïsoleer in die natuur.

Die piepklein huisie staan alleen in die Klein-Karoo veld, maar het alles wat 'n mens nodig het, insluitende 'n heerlike houtstofie wat die hele huisie warm maak. Eks seker in die somer sou ons dieselfde gevoel het oor die swembadjie op die stoep. Ons kon op ons eie deur die veld stap en verken, iets wat 'n mens selde mag doen. Die 4x4 pad was pragtig, die nou paadjie verskaf genoeg adrenalien sonder om te gevaarlik te wees.

Wonderlike ervaring in ongerepte natuurskoon.

Die stilte was 'n belewenis met puik basiese geriewe.

Relaxed and rejuvenating.

If diving into nature and getting away from it all is your thing then Tibani is the place for you. Game and birds in abundance. Beautiful hikes. Some negatives are the need for more shade in the afternoons and a more user-friendly shower. Scaldingly hot!

Absolutely fabulous.

Tibani is a hidden gem. If peace and quite is what you want, then this is the place. All you need is provided and the 4x4 trail is challenging and beautiful.

Heerlike wegbreek.

Tibani is die ideale plek as jy bietjie wil wegkom van jou selfoon, skootrekenaar, TV. Net 'n lekker plek om te ontspan. Die plonspoel is 'n wenner. Ons het heerlike gekuier en die diens is puik.
