Peaceful Farm in the country. Very warm welcome by the owner even with home-baked cookies and melk tert were a nice welcome. The accommodation is spacious and more than provides for all your needs.

Oasis of peace and silence. Beautiful restored old house with everything you could need for self catering. The hosts are very kind and helpfull and the baked surprises, yummie! You are always entertained by the Zebras and Springbucks. No TV, no cell phone, no internet. Digital detox! We would recommend this place to everybody who love nature, peace and silence and by being far away, very safe. Would love to stay there again. The only suggestion is to open a part of stoep and cover it with branches to have a half shade.

Complete silence, peace and beauty. This was our second weekend here. It is absolutely beautiful and private. Rika and Stephen are the most fantastic people. You just want to move in there and never go home again.

Dit was ons tweede naweek hier. Dit is doodstil pragtig en privaat. Rika en Stephen is die mees fantastiese mense. Jy wil net daar intrek en nooit weer huis toe gaan nie.

Good afternoon Elisna Thank you very much for your encouraging words, they mean a lot to us. It was wonderful to welcome you and your two beautiful boys here. I will keep the "dinosaur and baby gorilla" toys that were left behind for them. We hope to see you again. Best regards Stephen and Rika Geldenhuys.

Goeie middag Elisna Baie dankie vir jou bemoedigende woorde, dit beteken baie vir ons. Dit was heerlik om jullle en jul pragtige twee seuntjies hier te kon verwelkom. Ek sal die "dinausourus en gorillatjie" speelgoed wat agter gebly het, vir hulle hou. Ons hoop om julle weer te sien. Beste groete Stephen en Rika Geldenhuys.

Excellent accommodation and surroundings. Seclusion with yet luxurious accommodation makes for a wonderfully peaceful experience in one of the finest surroundings.

Uitstekende verblyf en omgewing. Afgesonderheid met tog luukse verblyf maak 'n wonderlike rustige ondervinding in een van die puikste omgewings.

Tranquil, relaxing, family bonding and peaceful. We planned a family holiday to completely disconnect. My husband found Arnion after a wide search. Stephen and Ryka are so warm, welcoming and made us feel at home. The self catering house was well equipped, with a French press and excellent pots/pan for the braai. Wood was available for braai and the boma was well situated. As per our kids the pool was 'epic' and made for hours of fun. The beds were firm with high-quality linens. The wildlife was incredible - the kids were entertained watching the zebras, peacocks, guinea fowl and springbokke. The night sky was majestic with full view of the Milky Way. Overall, this was one of the most rewarding and peaceful holidays we had in a very long time. We would highly recommend Arnion for people who want to explore the Cederberg mountains and disconnect.

Quiet, safe with everything needed. The pool was a winner with the kids. There is a nice fireplace inside for cold evenings. House is clean and tidy and newly renovated. The hostess even made muffins and milk pie for us! Real farm hospitality and a nice place to switch off not too far from the city. The Zebras are curious and come close to home.

Rustig, veilig met alles wat benodig word. Die swembad was 'n wenner met die kinders. Daar is 'n lekker kaggel binne vir koue aande. Huis is skoon en netjies en nuut opgeknap. Die gasvrou het selfs muffins en melktert vir ons gemaak! Regte plaasgasvryheid en 'n lekker plek om af te skakel nie te ver van die stad af nie. Die Zebras is nuuskierig en kom tot naby aan die huis.

Wonderful country hospitality with peaceful, beautiful surroundings. Truly rest for the soul! Hosts surpass everything in hospitality and detail in destination, even pie received on arrival, beautiful surroundings.

Most beautiful farm with zebras. The house is very beautiful, the farm is even more beautiful. The silence and the zebras. Everything was great. Will definitely go back.

Mooiste plaas met sebras. Die huis is vreeslik mooi, die plaas is nog mooier. Die stilte en die sebras. Alles was wonderlik. Sal beslis teruggaan.
