Verblyf is die berge, onbeskryflik mooi.

Die natuurskoon slaan jou asem weg, die hele rit na die huisie toe, was die uitsigte ongelooflik. Ons het lekker gebraai die aand, met die mooiste uitsig op die omliggende berge. Die huisie is primatief, maar gerieflik, met alles wat nodig is.

Accommodation is the mountains, indescribably beautiful.

The scenery takes your breath away, the whole drive to the cottage, the views were incredible. We had a nice barbecue that evening, with the most beautiful view of the surrounding mountains. The cottage is primitive, but comfortable, with everything you need.

Die “remoteness” is medisyne vir die siel.

Die rustieke klipkothuis is ‘n treat! Dis basies gemeubileer en toegerus vir selfsorgdoeleindes. Prentjiemooi omgewing. Ons het die vuurhert so geniet. Dankie vir die kratte hout.

The "remoteness" is medicine for the soul.

The rustic stone cottage is a treat! It is basically furnished and equipped for self-catering purposes. Picturesque surroundings. We enjoyed the fire deer so much. Thanks for the crates of wood.

A lovely place to spend a few days.

The Witteberg Nature Reserve is a wonderful place to spend a few days. It is, however, quite far off the beaten track for an overnight stay. We were travelling from the Free State to Cape Town and booked to stay at Witteberg, but I did not check the distance off the N1. It was over 40 km on gravel roads. As it happens, there was heavy rain the night before our arrival and portions of the road had been washed away. We were fortunate to have an all-wheel-drive vehicle to get there. We arrived later than expected and a little frazzled! However, we soon settled under the kind care of the manager and peaceful surroundings. It is a nature reserve bordering on Anysberg, and it is pet-friendly. We will definitely be back for a proper break.

Ervaring wat ek nooit sal vergeet.

Dit is in 'n stukkie Karoo hemel. Die natuurskoon, stilte en afsondering is 'n lafenis vir siel en liggaam. Eenhede moet opgegradeer en geverf word, asook beddegoed en gordyne.

Experience I will never forget.

It is in a piece of Karoo heaven. The natural beauty, silence and seclusion are a retreat for soul and body. Units need to be upgraded and painted, as well as bedding and curtains.

We enjoyed our stay.

I did not realize how far it was from the main road, I would recommend that only 4x4 cars go on that road. It would have been nice if kindling was provided for the fireplace. You need the fire in winter, very cold there. Other than that it was fine.

Thank you for your rating and feedback, Deirdre, it is much appreciated. I thought you would find it amazing that a 1919 Ford Model T visited us recently, and it was not a 4x4.

Baie basies.

Vir die bedrag wat ons betaal het, het ons meer verwag. Die mobiele braaidrom was so klein, kon skaars vuur daarin maak so moes ons bure se drom gebruik, hout vir kaggel het ons nie ontvang nie. Linne is oud, geen skerp messies vir steak eet, geen lang glase vir drankies, kamers baie klein.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Very basic.

For the amount we paid, we expected more. The mobile braai drum was so small, could barely make a fire in it so we had to use the neighbor's drum, we did not receive wood for the fireplace. Linen is old, no sharp knives for eating steak, no tall glasses for drinks, rooms very small.

Hi Carla, ons het kennis geneem van jou terugvoering en evaluasie, en is baie jammer om te hoor dat julle ongelukkig was met jul verblyf. Daar is egter altyd een van ons aan diens op die perseel, en ons 24-uur diens-klokkie is net 25-meter vanaf die woonstel waarin julle was. Dit is baie jammer julle het nie daarvan gebruik gemaak nie, want ons kon meeste van die aspekte wat jy gelys het, dadelik aanspreek: Steak messe, lang glase, krat kaggelhout, en groter braai-eenheid. Weereens baie jammer, maar nou weet ons almal dat die klein slaapkamers en een-nag verblyf-tariewe nie aan jul standaarde en verwagtinge voldoen nie. Vriendelike groete, Frik Linde.

Baie dankie dat jy die tyd geneem het om vir ons te evalueer, en ook vir jou gunstige evaluasie en terugvoering. Soos ons in 'n WhatsApp boodskap aan jou genoem het, het dit voorgekom asof jy jammerlik nie ons e-pos ontvang het met onder andere gedetailleerde aanwysings oor hoe om te ry om by ons uit te kom nie, insluitende die punt op Google Maps nie. Dit wil vir ons voorkom asof e-pos nie meer die mees effektiewe kommunikasie-medium is nie, so ons evalueer en toets tans alternatiewe.

Weereens dankie vir jou ondersteuning en terugvoering.

Heerlike rustigheid van die Karoo!

Ons het 'n heerlike naweek gehad by Witteberg. Die kommunikasie vanaf die bestuurder was fantasties. Hy het betyds al die nodige inligting vir ons gestuur via e-pos. Die woonstel is volledig toegerus met alles wat jy kan nodig kry. Daar was ook 'n krat hout. Die uitsig en die stilte was fantasties. Ek het selfs die oggend gaan draf en dit was baie lekker. Onthou dat jy alles wat jy gaan nodig kry moet saamvat. Dit is nie vinnig om weer in te ry na Lainsburg toe nie. Die eienaar het ons ook so herinner in sy e-pos - dit was baie bedagsaam. Die diens was baie goed, hul het ons selfs gaan wys hoe lyk een van die historiese geboue. Ons sal beslis hierdie plek aanbeveel!

Remember to take everything you will need with you. It is not fast to drive back to Lainsburg. The owner also reminded us so in his email - that was very thoughtful. The service was very good, they even showed us what one of the historic buildings looks like. We would definitely recommend this place!

Ongelooflik mooi in absolute stilte.

Die bergplooie en rotsformasies is iets wonderliks. Pragtige vallei wat goeie natuur tonele maak. Wat 'n voorreg was dit nie om in skoon akkommodasie te kom bly en weer jouself vind nie. Frik Linde is 'n man met 'n warm hart wat sorg dat sy gaste geen ongerief verduur nie. Hy kan net nie genoeg doen om jou te laat tuis voel nie en deel graag die geskiedenis van die Reservaat. Dankie dat jy bygedra om ons verblyf net nog aangenamer gemaak het.

Incredibly beautiful in absolute silence.

The mountain folds and rock formations are something wonderful. Beautiful valley that makes good nature scenes. What a privilege it was to come stay in clean accommodation and find yourself again. Frik Linde is a man with a warm heart who ensures that his guests do not suffer any inconvenience. He just can't do enough to make you feel at home and is happy to share the history of the Reserve. Thank you for helping to make our stay even more enjoyable.

Rustig en stil met net die skoonheid van die natuur wat jou omring!

Frik is 'n uitstekende gasheer en meer as gewillig om sy kennis van die area en eertydse plaas met gaste te deel. Is ook uiters behulpsaam met alles en nog wat. Eenheid is netjies, skoon en voldoen aan al die basiese vereistes. Die omgewing is pragtig en die atmosfeer een van algehele rustigheid. Daar is lekker wandelpaaie, reservaat is geïsoleerd van res van wêreld waar mens van die daaglikse sorge en probleme kan vergeet. Aan te beveel vir mense wat tyd nodig het om tot verhaal te kom van die gejaagde lewe. Gaan beslis weer kuier - hierdie keer met ons hondekind!

Peaceful and quiet with only the beauty of nature surrounding you!

Frik is an excellent host and more than willing to share his knowledge of the area and former farm with guests. Also extremely helpful with anything and everything. Unit is neat, clean and meets all the basic requirements. The surroundings are beautiful and the atmosphere one of complete tranquility. There are nice walking paths, the reserve is isolated from the rest of the world where one can forget about the daily worries and problems. Recommended for people who need time to recover from the hectic life. Will definitely visit again - this time with our dog child!

Lekker rustige, prentjiemooi natuurskoon.

Toegang is via goeie grondpaaie met heelwat rivierkruisings wat tydens reën in die berge ‘n uitdaging vir motors sal wees. Vir 4x4- en natuurliefhebbers is hierdie 'n pragtige plek om te verken en met 6 roetes wat in ry-tyd wissel van 1 uur tot heeldag gaan 'n naweek te kort wees om al die mooi te sien. Ons het die 2-slaapkamereenheid gehad, wat, alhoewel nie modern nie, skoon en netjies was. Veral die stort met lekker hoë druk was verfrissend. As gevolg van die batterykragstelsel se beperkte kapasiteit word 'n mikrogolf nie verskaf nie. Daar is nie 'n radio nie, want daar is waarskynlik nie FM ontvangs nie. Ook ‘n lekker sterk LED-leeslig sal 'n groot verskil maak om die aand om te kry. Ek wil verseker weer gaan en die keer langer bly.

Nice quiet, picturesque scenery.

Access is via good dirt roads with numerous river crossings that will be a challenge for cars during rain in the mountains. For 4x4 and nature lovers this is a beautiful place to explore and with 6 routes that vary in driving time from 1 hour to all day, a weekend will be too short to see all the beauty. We had the 2 bedroom unit, which, although not modern, was clean and tidy. Especially the shower with nice high pressure was refreshing. Due to the limited capacity of the battery power system, a microwave is not provided. There is no radio, because there is probably no FM reception. Also a nice strong LED reading light will make a big difference in the evening. I definitely want to go again and stay longer this time.

The place is getting a bit run down, there is surrounding accommodation closer to Matjiesfontein, which is better maintained.

The unit is livable and for our purposes of just laying down, it was decent. For a weekend away I wouldn't recommend it, the place needs some renovation to make it look tidy. The owner is nice and helpful.

Ontsnap na 'n afgeleë en rustige fasiliteit.

Witteberg Nature Reserve is nie geskik vir iemand wat stedelike vermaak verwag nie. Dit is afgeleë, maar nie ver Kaapstad nie. Die fasiliteit offer afgesonderde rustigheid in 'n histories vallei in die Karoo. Daar is tweespoorpaadjies wat jou na verafgeleë uithoeke neem. Die fokus is op stilte en respek vir die natuur. Selfoon en internetverbinding is uiters beperk, maar beproef dit en geniet dit. Dit is 'n verassing dat die gebrek daaraan nie die einde van die wêreld is nie, inteendeel.

Escape to a remote and peaceful facility.

Witteberg Nature Reserve is not suitable for someone expecting urban entertainment. It is remote, but not far from Cape Town. The facility offers secluded tranquility in a historic valley in the Karoo. There are two-track paths that take you to distant corners. The focus is on silence and respect for nature. Mobile phone and internet connection is extremely limited but try it and enjoy. It is a reminder that the lack of it is not the end of the world, on the contrary.

Die huisie was pragtig, netjies en skoon, met alles nodig.

'n Groot trekpleister is die roetes (4x4) wat op Witteberg is. Ongelukkig (en ek verstaan hoekom) was omtrent almal gesluit ten tye van my verblyf. Dit sou dalk goed wees as daardie feit/toestand duidelik is wanneer 'n mens bespreek.

If you're a nature lover and just want to get away from everything, this is the place for you.

Very neat, clean and spacious accommodation with everything you need. I think this would be paradise for nature lovers who wants to get away from everything. You hear nothing except the birds, etc. You travel on a gravel road which is for the most part very well kept. However, in my opinion you need a 4-wheel drive vehicle or at least a SUV for the last part of the road from the entry gate to the reception area, which they should mention to visitors.

Liggaam en gees verfris in 'n verruklike omgewing.

Die omgewing is besonder: van die mooiste voorbeelde van plooiberge en sandsteenrotse, 'n wye verskeidenheid grondsoorte en plantegroei, heerlike stappaaie (waarskynlik ook vir fietse en viertrek, maar ek het net gestap), algehele stilte en veiligheid - hoe besonder is dit nie vir 'n stedeling om in volkome veiligheid alleen ure lank in die veld deur te bring en foto's te kan neem nie. Die voorafreëlings het glad verloop en die ontvangs was puik. Hou rekening met beperkte elektriese krag wat van sonkragselle verkry word, en meebring dat daar byvoorbeeld nie 'n mikrogolfoond is nie, maar die geriewe is heeltemal voldoende, in goeie toestand en die gastoestelle werk sonder probleme. 'n Kaggel verdryf die koue en hout is plaaslik beskikbaar. Die eienaar/bestuurder is hulpvaardig, sorgsaam en ingelig. Jy ervaar nostalgie as jy lees van die uitdagings en ervarings van vroeë bewoners, maar dit dra by tot die bekoring van die plek en gee ekstra diepte aan jou besoek. Dis 'n voorreg vir 'n Kaapse stedeling om so 'n pragomgewing binne maklike bereik te kan besoek. Aansienlike veranderings word beplan, onder andere aansluiting by 'n natuurbewaringkorridor en meer verblyfplekke, maar die aanduiding is dat dit met deeglike aandag aan bewaring gedoen word. Watter invloed die ontwikkelings op die algemene atmosfeer sal uitoefen, sal nog gesien moet word.(Eintlik wil 'n mens die plek nie te veel opvysel nie, want jy is effens besitlik op jou ervaring daar!)

The environment is special: some of the most beautiful examples of folded mountains and sandstone rocks, a wide variety of soil types and vegetation, lovely walking paths (probably also for bikes and four-wheel drive, but I only walked), complete silence and safety - how special is it for a city dweller to be able to spend hours alone in the field and take pictures in complete safety. The pre-arrangements went smoothly and the reception was great. Take into account limited electric power obtained from solar cells, and bear in mind that, for example, there is no microwave oven, but the facilities are completely adequate, in good condition and the gas appliances work without problems. A fireplace dissipates the cold and wood is available locally. The owner/manager is helpful, caring and knowledgeable. You feel nostalgic when you read about the challenges and experiences of early inhabitants, but this adds to the charm of the place and gives extra depth to your visit. It is a privilege for a Cape city dweller to be able to visit such a beautiful environment within easy reach. Considerable changes are planned, including joining a nature conservation corridor and more places to stay, but the indication is that this is being done with careful attention to conservation. What influence the developments will have on the general atmosphere remains to be seen.

Ons het slegs oornag om 'n paar foto's te neem van die natuur.

Ek kan Witteberg met groot gemak aanbeveel. Die aanwysings om daar te kom, is baie duidelik, en die natuurskoon is werklik iets om na uit te sien. Die verblyf is baie gerieflik en netjies.

We only stayed overnight to take some photos of the nature.

I can recommend Witteberg with great ease. The directions to get there are very clear, and the scenery is truly something to look forward to. The accommodation is very comfortable and tidy.

Rus en vrede!

Die Natuurreservaat bied algehele rus en vrede en heerlike paaie om op rond te stap en diere te sien. Dit is 'n pragtige area om in te bly.

Heerlik, wens net daar was nie 'n muur om die braai-area nie, want dit het die uitsig belemmer.

Baie netjies en skoon. Niks het kortgekom nie.

Lovely, just wish there wasn't a wall around the braai area as it obstructed the view.

Very neat and clean. Nothing was missing.
