We came in from Botswana for an overnight stay. We arrived on a Sunday and were welcomed with open arms. We got food, probably the tastiest roasts we've ever eaten. It was an exceptional experience!

Ons het van Botswana af ingekom vir oornag. Ons het op 'n Sondag aangekom en is met ope arms ontvang. Ons het kos gekry, seker die lekkerste sosaties wat ons nog ooit geëet het. Dit was 'n uitsonderlike ervaring!

A bushveld treasure. Whilst the photos of the cottage do some justice, the experience of being at the cottage is worth the travel. The accommodation was very clean, with all amenities provided, even thoughtful consumables were made available like mozzie spray, milk and bathing soaps. A note to travellers, the property is deep set in the bushveld, and network can be problem in terms of connectivity due to loadshedding. There is Wi-Fi on the property in a certain 'spot' and full connectivity and Wifi at the The Padstal. The accommodation is beautifully incorporated in to the property and the bushveld and is a truly tranquil environment. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners, their children and their animals, with the dogs and cat, who regularly visited at us the cottage and kept the children busy. The accommodation is deeply set in the bushveld, with few options for going out, but we did manage to find the biggest and oldest area Baobab Tree, had lunch at a neighbouring golfcourse on the Limpopo River looking across to Botswana and an absolute life changing visit to another neighbour on their game farm. On the farm itself, we were unfortunate not to take part in the horse-riding as the horses had been retired, but did enjoy an evening game drive, visited the vulture restaurant and went on a peaceful hiking trail. Lots of swimming was also enjoyed. The hosts are super hosts and are the most accommodating one can ever find. The Corner Padstal, an oasis treasure, was a brilliant addition to the property and we definitely recommend a stop over for good, wholesome, value for money food and most probably the best milkshakes in The Southern Hemisphere! We were able to purchase locally made produce and other pretty collectables as well as indigenous plants and not to forget the stress relief of the driving range. We thank Henk and Anel for their time and definitely look forward to returning for the hunting season. Please add more pictures to website for others to view as well.

Henk and Anel looked after us very well. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble, and the man can grill! Our group of 9 men booked 3 units, on our way back from Botswana. Als was great and tidy when we arrived, and dinner was soon made for us [without prior arrangement]. The best barbecue after a long long time. The rooms / units are spacious, luxurious and have everything you could need. Nice woodland atmosphere and the one outdoor shower was well used. Showers were hot and beds comfortable. A few of us soon jumped in the pool [even though it was the month of July] and we hung around the fire late. Breakfast at the paddock was delicious, and Anel made wonderful nut coffee. Jugs full. Feel free to pay them a visit - and make sure you feel like having a nice, quiet visit.

Henk en Anel het baie mooi na ons gekyk. Absoluut niks was te veel moeite nie, en die man kan braai! Ons groep van 9 mans het 3 eenhede bespreek, op pad terug van Botswana af. Als was puik en netjies toe ons opdaag, en daar is gou vir ons aandete gemaak [sonder vooraf reël]. Die beste braai na 'n lang lang tyd. Die kamers / eenhede is ruim, luuks en het als wat jy kan nodig kry. Lekker bosveld-atmosfeer en die een buitelugstort is goed gebruik. Storte was warm en beddens gemaklik. Paar van ons het gou in die swembad gespring [al was dit Julie-maand] en ons het laat om die vuur gekuier. Ontbyt by die padstal was heerlik, en Anel het wonderlike moerkoffie gemaak. Kanne vol. Maak gerus by hulle 'n draai - en maak seker jy is lus vir lekker rustig kuier.

Friendly, hospitable, relaxing. Anel and Henk are friendly, hospitable and helpful. Go out of their way to help. Have a great time and relax. Would definitely recommend. The Padstal (which they own) was just as delicious, especially their roast cake.

Vriendelik, gasvry, ontspannend. Anel en Henk is vriendelik, gasvry en behulpsaam. Gaan uit hul pad om te help. Baie lekker gekuier en ontspan. Sal beslis aanbeveel. Die Padstal (wat hul besit) net so 'n lekker gewees, veral hul roosterkoek.

Great little place to stay with friendly hosts. Great place to stay and to get away from the noise of everyday life. Quite far from shops, so ensure you have all your necessities with you before you go.

Average. We were moved to Bushveld rest because it was closer to the wedding venue we were traveling to. There was no water on Sunday morning, so we couldn't shower or use the facilities. It was disappointing.

Gemiddeld. Ons is geskuif na Bushveld rest toe want dit was nader aan die trou venue waarna ons gereis het. Daar was geen water Sondagoggend nie, so ons kon nie stort of geriewe gebruik nie. Dit was teleurstellend.

Very sorry about the water problem. It was really unforeseen circumstances with the pressure pump bursting on Saturday night. We had to wait for the cooperative to open on a Sunday and buy a new pump. Again sorry about this. regards Anel

Baie jammer oor die water probleem. Dit was regtig onvoorsiene omstandighede met die drukpomp wat Saterdagnag gebars het. Ons moes wag om die koöperasie op 'n Sondag te laat oopmaak en 'n nuwe pomp te koop. Weereens jammer hieroor. Groete Anel

Received a very hospitable welcome. Everything clean and tidy. After a long day of driving it was a lovely place to stay.

Baie gasvry ontvang. Alles skoon en netjies. Na 'n lang dag se ry was dit 'n heerlike knus plek.

Place is nice, very basic. The 7.5 km road was not pleasant. Bad corrugated iron. Really hurt for my car's part. The apartment is completely basic and nice and clean. I think R950/night for 4 bed and R1100 for six bed is too expensive! Who gave the place a 4 star rating? It's a 2.5 star for sure.

Plek is nice, baie basies. Die pad van 7,5 km was nie aangenaam nie. Erge sinkplaat. Kry eintlik seer vir my motor se part. Die woonstel is heeltemal basies en mooi skoon. Ek dink R950/nag vir 4 bed en R1100 vir ses bed is te duur! Wie het die plek 'n 4 ster rating gegee? Dit is vir seker 'n 2.5 ster.

It is not nice if our guests are not satisfied and we will definitely work on the kitchens. Fortunately, this rarely happens and our guests are usually completely satisfied as the other feedback shows. Just want to mention that we have never advertised ourselves as a 4 star but as an ordinary farm accommodation that strives for hospitality and farm tranquility. We are in constant contact with the Roads Department. But unfortunately they have not scraped the road for a long time due to various reasons. Spoke to them again today and promised to come scrape the road soon. Unfortunately, this is a problem throughout the Bosveld and an annoyance for us.

Dit is nie lekker as ons gaste nie tevrede is en ons sal definitief aan die kagtes werk. Gelukkig gebeur dit min en is ons gaste gewoonlik heeltemal tevrede soos die ander terugvoer wys. Wil net noem dat ons, onself nog nooit as 'n 4 ster geadverteer het nie maar as 'n gewone plaas akkommodasie wat strewe na gasvryheid en plaas rustigheid. Ons is voortdurend met die Paaie Departement in verbinding. Maar hul het ongelukkig lanklaas die pad geskraap agv verskeie redes. Het vandag weer met hul gepraat en beloof om die pad binnekort te kom skraap. Ongelukkig is dit maar 'n probleem deur die hele Bosveld en 'n ergenis vir ons.

Lovely stay, tranquil and beautiful area. Very nice stay in a well-equipped house, friendly reception and lovely time around the fire with enough wood. Can recommend it.

Heerlik gebly baie rustig en mooi omgewing! Baie lekker gebly in goed toegeruste huisie, vriendelik ontvang en heerlik gekuier om braaivleisvuur met genoeg hout verskaf! Kan aanbeveel.
