Umpukane is truly unique and special.
Umpukane is definitely the best place I have ever stayed. Annelie is accommodating and pleasant and her attention to detail and efforts to make your stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible have no limits. The "cottage" where I stayed has everything you need and I was pleasantly surprised to see how big and spacious the "cottage" is. One's soul and body have no choice but to totally relax at Umpukane! This is definitely a place I will definitely go back to again, but next time it won't be for business. I feel that one needs at least a week to be able to enjoy the natural beauty and tranquility.

Farm stay at its best.
We have often stayed on farms via the website. Umpukane was simply one of the best. The hostess took care of all our needs and provided a few extras (local grape juice). The view from The Cottage is lovely and there are so many places to walk and things to do that we would have liked to stay much longer than the 3 nights.

An opportunity to recharge one's batteries.
I am convinced that the sun does not rise as beautifully in the entire Eastern Free State as it does here, and doesn't set as beautifully as well. Lovely location. Lovely view. Lovely walks. Lovely people. What we couldn't buy for the oven or braai right around the corner at the roadside stalls, Clocolan, just around the corner, could provide. There is a feeling of seclusion, without necessarily having seclusion. Warm reception and South African hospitality without intrusiveness. The Rock has lovely views to enjoy with a cocktail. The Cottage's view of the braai area is second.

Unit is very neat, but still needs finishing here and there. Really enjoyed being there, although the unit could not be locked, which made it safe and very peaceful. Spaarkamer's 2 single beds are very soft and uncomfortable for an adult person. Other than that, everything is beautiful.

Our family of 6 (2 children and 2 babies) really enjoyed this breakaway. The weekend was too short to fit in everything. Next time we'll definitely come to explore the other hiking trails. The children really enjoyed the cold water by the pool. Hopefully next time we'll win the fish over too! We made great memories.

We took a chance and were surprised with the silence, scenery and hospitality of the people. Thank you Annelie - it was great. It is cold in the winter - so electric blankets and heaters were provided (which worked very well). A small oven would be a very good accessory for the houses - furthermore, the mountain climbing was particularly fun and gives you the opportunity to experience something outside in nature. Great option for the whole family.

In the beauty and silence of nature one can refresh one's soul.
It is a beautiful farm with a lovely view in all directions. There are many hills and mountains to climb, beautiful walking paths, a beautiful spring with clear water, green grass plains, willow trees swaying in the wind. The rustic farm atmosphere lends itself to complete relaxation. There are walking routes, jogging routes and climbing routes for the busy guys. Others can lie under a tree around the beautiful grass and read, draw or just lie and look at the clouds. For sure a must to return to nature and its healing effects on the soul. We came back rested.
