Excellent accommodation option.
The stay was beautiful! We stayed in Kloofhuis and the cottage is very tastefully furnished. We didn't need anything more. The home-baked bread, farm butter, jam and milk were a bonus. Ben's communication was great and nothing is too much trouble for him. Wish we could have stayed longer. Would recommend Zandrivier anytime!

Kloofhuis is a beautiful place! Everything you could possibly need is there. And Sanna's fresh, warm baked bread with butter and jam is 'to die for'. Delicious! The fireplace was already burning when we got there. Problem with the geyser quickly sorted out and had a nice chat. He has the most beautiful bunch of dogs, all 8! There is WiFi which works great. No TV, but we don't mind. Beautiful nature. Sheep camps had the most beautiful lambs and mothers. Wood is provided at no extra cost. So, fireplace and barbecue outside is no problem. Bring your food and drink, because there are no shops nearby! Will definitely go back if chance presents itself. Thank you!

The very best and nicest accommodation in the Seweweekspoort.
The stay was great! We were at home in Kloofhuis and the cottage is very well furnished. The fireplace was already on when we arrived in rainy weather and Ben surprised us with a delicious home-baked sandwich from Sanna as well as butter, jam and milk. He also brought some extra wood. The shower is just the most beautiful there is with the window looking out on the mountain. The yard is fenced which was favorable for our 2 dogs and there is a lot of natural vegetation. We will definitely stay there again one day and can definitely recommend it!

Very nice self-catering unit on a farm with a nice view of the mountains and the farm.
We stayed 2 nights in Kloofhuis. When we arrived, our fireplace was already burning, now that's good service in that cold weather. We were able to park right in front of the unit which made packing and unpacking very convenient. The unit was beautiful with lots of windows and very special, it had a unique view from every room, whether it was over the mountains or over the sheep, or just over the porch. It was unique. You felt like you were outside the whole time. There was a large veranda with a table and chair where you could relax and admire your beautiful view. There was a barbecue area on the grass, which you could use to barbecue your meat. We provided our own braai wood. The unit was really nice, and the open plan unit consisted of a sitting, dining and sleeping area. The bed had a good quality mattress with white linen and a nice thick warm blanket. In the living area was a table with 2 chairs where you could comfortably sit and eat. There were also 2 easy chairs in front of the fireplace. Here it was the most delicious. The host provided us with 2 crates of fire wood. The fireplace made the room warm and cozy. The bathroom had a large shower, sink and a toilet in the corner. There was hand soap at the sink and 2 large white bath towels were provided. It would have been nice to have a hand towel by the sink. The kitchen had a large fridge, gas stove and microwave oven, a variety of glasses, other crockery and cutlery were provided. There was coffee, tea and sugar in the kitchen. On arrival, 2 small children brought us a tray with a fresh warm bun, fresh milk (which was a blessing, because I forgot my milk the day before at the guest house in Calitzdorp), nice butter and fig jam. Thank you very much, it was a great treat. There was excellent WiFi the entire time and we were able to use our cell phones with ease. The beautiful garden is well maintained with a nice large lawn. The entire area around the unit was fenced and it was very safe for your pets, they could run around with ease and safety. There were also security lights all around the unit that went on with movement. It was a peace of mind and we felt very safe. We had a great time staying on the farm and we can recommend the accommodation as excellent accommodation. We had good communication with the friendly host as well as directions to the unit which we appreciated. We will definitely use the accommodation again. Thank you Zandrivier for the unforgettable experience on your beautiful farm, it was soul food for us. Note that there is not a TV with exclusive DStv as advertised and mentioned in the description.

Beautiful location! Great stay, just too short! The Breezicht unit is 2 parts that are connected with an outer step. Kitchen and bedroom in one and bedroom and bathroom in the other part. (However, with the cold, wet weather, one does not want to trade the cozy heat in front of the fireplace for the cold road outside to the bathroom/toilet.)

A wonderful visit in the Karoonatuur.
The location is very good and the farm was easily accessible, not hard to find at all. It's just before the Sevenweekspoort pass from Laingsburg's side. The little house, Ben's Cottage, is something special, which we really liked. The view from the cottage over the fields to the mountains is something special and breathtaking. The cottage has everything you need. The outdoor grill works well. Sufficient dry wood was available for the outdoor barbecue and the indoor fireplace. What must be underlined is that hot water is immediately available when you turn on the tap. We enjoyed the big bath, which one cannot do in the city, due to the costs of water, power and water scarcity. Sanna brought us warm, freshly baked bread, butter, jam and milk. We have stayed at many guest houses around the country and this is one of the few places that spoils you like this and it's extra for which you don't have to pay anything. Plus free WiFi! The hospitality deserves a special mention. You just feel relaxed as soon as you land. a lovely farm feel with chickens running around without bothering them. The furniture is of high quality, the large double bed sleeps well. We will definitely stay at Zandrivier again if we drive in that direction, and for more than one night! This is a gem.

Zandrivier Farm Self-catering Accommodation 's response
Dis regtig jammer oor jou gevoel oor Ben's Cottage op Zandrivier. Julle was ontvang deur Sanna. Tye toe ek by julle was het jy gaan fiets ry. Dit is duidelik gelys dat die kothuis net 'n bad het, en meeste gaste geniet die groot bad vir 2, die ander kothuise het storte of albei. Julle het een plaasbrood met aankoms gekry, gratis, julle het self vir Sanna R50 vir n 2de brood betaal. Met Stage 5/6 krag onderbreking is dit nogal erg om te knie en te bak. Dit kos ons baie meer as R50 'n brood.
Jammer dat jy so voel, toe ek met jou vrou gepraat het was sy baie gelukkig.
Ons werk vir goeie resensies, dit is jammer oor jou resensie.

Even though it is a yard full of animals and the main house is next to the cottage, one has total privacy, and does not bother the animals in any way. Sober knows how they keep the dogs to one side! It's considerate of people who might be afraid.

For a nature person, Zandrivier is the treasure chest at the end of the rainbow.
From the moment Mia, my woof, and I arrived, we were received with care and hospitality. The 10 dog children on the farm make you immediately feel like you're part of a big family. The surroundings/mountains are so beautiful. I took countless photos, was also blessed to experience a breathtaking thunderstorm. Mia loved the farm dam, she was in her element. The extras such as the freshly baked bread with butter and jam, as well as the fresh milk in the fridge were heartwarming, Floris' paintings that look out for you in Ben's Cottage, were masterfully created to take you on a journey to a far away place. There was plenty of wood and I could make a fire morning, noon and night. A weekend is definitely too short, can't wait to go back. I almost forgot that bath. I got into him at 3:30 the first morning. The bath came in close 2nd as my highlight of the weekend!

Nice farm visit.
Apart from a bakkie that sped past us at the speed of light and splashed our car full of stones, we got to Ben's Cottage quite easily and received a warm welcome from Sanna and her little girl. The men brought us wood and even another braai (which we didn't use at the time). Later, Sanna brought us a delicious freshly baked bread with butter and homemade jam - it was heavenly! The chickens, guinea fowls, geese and finches entertained us for hours and food time was something to experience! The place is well furnished and we had a great time. Only one negative point is that I only contacted Ben afterwards after I hadn't heard anything from him by the morning of arrival. However, this did not detract from a lovely stay.

The Bergzicht Cottage is nicely decorated and well-equipped. We made a nice fire and there was enough wood. The kids had a ball on the farm and even planted on their own piece of land and decorated it. Ben and his team spoiled us with freshly baked bread, butter and apricot jam! We would definitely recommend that you stay a night or 2 at Zandrivier on your way through Seweweekspoort en route to the Klein Karoo!

We spent only one night in the Bergzight cottage, and wish had stayed longer. It's a typical farmhouse with everything you need. A great big fireplace inside and a braai outside. The owner, Ben, provided firewood for the evening which we really appreciated. DStv and WiFi worked. Nice place for kids with all the farm animals roaming around and friendly dogs and a friendly owner. We will stay here again, thank you Ben.
