Was onvergeetlik!

Warm verwelkoming gehad van die gasheer, die dierbaarste kat. Huisie was ingerig met die nodige. Alles was netjies en gerieflik. Lekker kaggelvuur gehad wat die huis verwarm het.

It was our first visit to the Baviaanskloof and we really enjoyed it.

The setting is truly special, but Langhuis needs maintenance. The tops of the kitchen cupboards lift up and the cupboards, tablecloth, some of the cutlery and pots were unfortunately not clean. One of the photos showed a standing fan, but there was no fan. I would also suggest that there should be gas - "back-up" for times of load shedding. A single plate stove with kettle will suffice.

Ongelooflik. Wonderlik. Pragtig. Rus en Vrede.

Ons het oornag in "Die Kerkie" en dit was wonderlik. Die kerkie het ons totaal en al verras met sy pragtige en netjiese uitgelê binnekant. Daar is twee badkamers, die een badkamer in die slaapkamer het 'n lekker groot bad in met 'n wonderlike uitsig oor die dammetjie. Die ander badkamer het weer 'n stort in. Die aandgeluide by die dammetjie was ongelooflik. Ons het tot 'n vark gehad wat ons vermaak het om in die dammetjie rond te rol asook skilpaaie en eende. Dit was werklikwaar 'n uitsonderlike ervaring om in die kerkie te kon oornag. Die wind het opgekom voor ons kon braai, maar daar is 'n wonderlike braaiplek binne in die huisie. Dit was te heerlik om binne die huisie te braai en by kerslig te eet. Ons sal definitief hierdie kerkie aanbeveel vir die stilte, naggeluide en totale rus en vrede na 'n lang dag op die pad.

Unbelievable. Wonderful. Beautiful. Rest and peace.

We spent the night in "Die Kerkie" and it was wonderful. The little church totally surprised us with its beautiful and neatly laid out interior. There are two bathrooms, the one bathroom in the bedroom has a nice big bath in it with a wonderful view of the little pond. The other bathroom again has a shower in it. The evening sounds at the pond were incredible. We even had a pig that entertained us rolling around in the pond as well as turtles and ducks. It was truly an exceptional experience to be able to spend the night in the church. The wind came up before we could barbecue, but there is a wonderful barbecue area inside the cottage. It was too delicious to barbecue inside the cottage and eat by candlelight. We would definitely recommend this little church for the silence, night sounds and total peace and quiet after a long day on the road.

Great little house with balcony to catch the winter sun.

Offers all amenities needed for a good stay. Beautiful setting. Also conveniently close — walking distance to the well-stocked Padstal where you can also buy wood for the inside fire (braai) place. The ad shows water in the dam, but does state that it could be dry, it was.

Baie dankie, die natuurskoon en verskillende plante en diversiteit was om te sien. Die roete sal ek nie sonder 'n 4x4 aanpak nie, want die laaste deel deur die natuurreservaat is baie uitdagend. Pragtige deel van ons land!

Sielskos, verfrissend, verrykend.

Ek was so bevoorreg om vir 10 nagte in Ou Kerkie tuis te gaan. Ek was oormoeg toe ek daar aangekom het, maar het vars en verfris daar weggegaan. Die rustigheid, vars lug en natuurlewe is net die regte medisyne om 'n mens sommer weer nuwe lewenslus te gee. Die huisie is ook uitstekend toegerus. Daar was wel iets wat vir my sleg was: Om daar weg te ry.

I was so privileged to stay in Ou Kerkie for 10 nights. I was exhausted when I got there, but left fresh and refreshed. The tranquility, fresh air and wildlife are just the right medicine to give one a new zest for life. The cottage is also excellently equipped. There was something that was bad for me: Driving away from there.

Oupatjie is netjies en goed toegerus, maar nie so stil en rustig as wat mens sou verwag nie.

Die huisie is baie na aan die hoofpad deur die Baviaanskloof, dus is daar baie verkeer. Die werkershuise is direk aan die oorkant van die pad. Hulle het die hele Saterdagmiddag en -aand partytjie gehou en musiek gespeel.

Oupatjie is neat and well equipped, but not as quiet and peaceful as one would expect.

The cottage is very close to the main road through the Baviaanskloof, so there is a lot of traffic. The workers' houses are directly across the road. They partied and played music all Saturday afternoon and evening.

Comfy cottage.

There are a number of lovely features: indoor braai/fireplace; plunge pool and corner bath with huge windows and views of the Baviaanskloof. The cottage had everything we needed for a two-day stay, including lots of firewood. There are two bathrooms, so it really is more than spacious enough for two people. It was lovely watching the tortoise trundling back and forth and having cows grazing in the garden. The cottage is across the road from the Baviaans-padstal and -restaurant, and there are several beautiful walks/short hikes close by, so it couldn't be more convenient.

Ons het saam met vriende deur die Baviaans gery, omtrent 4 uur by ons akkommodasie aangekom (die Langhuis). Ons wens ons kon langer bly.

Volgende keer bring ons vriende, en die kids, hulle sou dit nou baie geniet het. Die gras, apies in die bome, en die boom is wonderlik. Wens ons kon die padstal ook sien, dit lyk van buite net so oulik. PS. Onthou net toiletpapier.

Wonderlike plekkie van vars lug onder die Baviaans.

Die padstal is letterlik 200 m van die huisie af. Tydens Februarie is daar nie meer water oor in die dam nie, maar is vir seker nader aan die winter. Die huis is goed toegerus met al die nodige goed nodig vir oornag of selfs vir 'n paar dae.

Goeie basis vanwaar die Baviaans verken kan word.

Weereens heerlik gekuier in die Baviaans met die Ou Kerkie as basis. Beveel al die staproetes aan - vroegoggend langs die rivier, boesmantekeninge na ontbyt en dan Waterkloof (by bure) na middagete. Die Ou Kerkie bly lekker, maar kan baat vind by 'n paar opgraderings, veral in die kombuis - die huidige stoof en mikrogolfposisies is onprakties (IMO kan hulle eerder in die oop vuurhert staan, wat dan ook die rookreuk sal oplos, maar besef dat besoekers dalk die binne-vuur mid-winter sal mis). 'n Paar basiese items soos sout en peper en 'n bondeltjie hout sal ook waarde toevoeg. Behalwe vir die matras (wat kliphard is) is die kamer en badkamers baie goed - die bad is 'n wenner. Laastens, die beskikbaarheid van WiFi was 'n reusebonus vir ons - dit maak nie slegs kommunikasie moontlik nie, maar ook aanlyn navorsing oor die omgewing, geskiendenis, geologie, ens. Dit voeg maw baie waarde toe tot jou besoek aan die Kloof. Ons sal weer daar gaan bly.

Good base from which to explore the Bavian.

Once again a wonderful time in the Baviaans with the Old Church as a base. Recommend all the walking routes - early morning along the river, bushman drawings after breakfast and then Waterkloof (by neighbors) after lunch. The Old Church remains nice, but could benefit from some upgrades, especially in the kitchen - the current stove and microwave positions are impractical (IMO they could stand in the open hearth instead, which would also solve the smoke smell, but realize that visitors may miss the indoor fire mid-winter). A few basic items like salt and pepper and a bundle of wood will also add value. Apart from the mattress (which is rock hard) the room and bathrooms are very good - the bath is a winner. Finally, the availability of WiFi was a huge bonus for us - it allows not only communication, but also online research about the environment, history, geology, etc. This adds a lot of value to your visit to the Kloof. We will stay there again.

Stil word in die Baviaans.

Die Oupatjie-eenheid het al die geriewe wat nodig is. 'n Donderstorm was 'n goeie begin vir ons verblyf. Die staproetes en omgewing het vir voëlkykers talle verrassings opgelewer. Dankie vir die gasvryheid.

Dis ideaal vir staproetes in die Baviaans vir 'n naweek.

Nie geskik vir een aand oorslaap nie. Die 70 km-pad vanaf die Willowmore-Uniondale-pad is asemrowend, maar woes.

Uitstekende verblyf in die pragtige natuur.

Oupatjie is die ideale verblyf vir iemand wat net die stilheid en prag van die Baviaanskloof wil geniet. Die huise was skoon en het alles wat nodig is, insluitend krag. Ons het heerlik gebly en kan Oupatjie beslis aanbeveel.

Ongelooflik, ongelooflik, ongelooflik en so mooi!

'n Week was nie naastenby genoeg nie. Ons was so geseënd want dit het kort voor ons gekom het baie gereën in die Karoo. Alles was groen, soveel blomme. Behalwe vir dit, is die Baviaans die heel beste plek om uit te span. Die padstalwinkel is ook die beste in die hele kloof. Ons kuier vir seker weer by hulle!

A week was not nearly enough. We were so blessed because shortly before we arrived it rained a lot in the Karoo. Everything was green, so many flowers. Other than that, the Baboon is the very best place to stretch out. The paddock shop is also the best in the whole gorge. We will visit them again for sure!

Baie aangename verblyf in die Baviaans

Die ou kerkie is ’n baie lekker plek om te oornag en is baie goed ingerig. Daar is ’n lieflike houtdek by die braai-area waar mens sommer heerlik kuier. Die huisie is baie mooi geleë en die natuur rondom die huisie is pragtig. Ons was nou al 2 keer daar en sal vir seker weer daar oornag.

Sielsrus in die mooie Baviaans.

Ons het heerlik warm gekuier met ons winterbesoek aan Baviaans Cottages. Die groot vuurherd, warm en goeie kwaliteit beddegoed en heerlik warm water in groot uitspanbad het ons lekker snoesig en warm gehou! Die gratis WiFi was 'n groot luukse, omdat daar omtrent geen telefoonsein in die Baviaanskloof is nie. Gebruik dit spaarsamig net vir die nodige sake want die geen telefoonsein is natuurlik deel van die saligheid van 'n Baviaansvakansie! Die plaas het Boesmantekeninge wat gaste kan besigtig na 'n kort stappie oor 'n koppie. Dit was baie besonders vir ons kinders om dit te kon sien juis omdat hul onlangs daaroor eksamen geskryf het! Die Baviaanspadstal is net oorkant die pad en beskik oor basiese voorraad, daar is net nog 1 so 'n winkel in die kloof, en dit is baie gerieflik om nie te ver hiervan te gebly het nie. Ons sal beslis weer by Baviaans Guest Cottages bly op ons volgende besoek!

Peace of mind in the beautiful Bavian.

We had a lovely warm time with our winter visit to Baviaans Cottages. The large hearth, warm and good quality bedding and deliciously hot water in the large soaking tub kept us cozy and warm! The free WiFi was a great luxury, because there is almost no phone signal in the Baviaanskloof. Use it sparingly only for the necessary matters because the no phone signal is of course part of the bliss of a Baboon holiday! The farm has Bushman drawings that guests can view after a short walk over a koppie. It was very special for our children to be able to see it precisely because they recently wrote an exam about it! The Baviaanspadstal is just across the road and has basic stock, there is only 1 other such store in the gorge, and it is very convenient not to be staying too far from this. We will definitely stay at Baviaans Guest Cottages again on our next visit!

Oud, maar skoon, netjies en baie goed toegrus. En ruim.

So lekker om in droë Baviaans te wees midde 'n woeste reënstorm, die klippe in rivier en pad hoor rol soos water dit spoel, en die binnebraai aan te steek en vleis te braai.

Goeie oornag as jy beplan om dwarsdeur die kloof te ry.

Die huisie was skoon en netjies met alles in wat jy benodig, veral as jy die prys in ag neem. Die ergonomie was bietjie vreemd - die tweeplaat elektriese stoof kan net werk as die kombuisdeur toe is en die mikrogolf is bo-op die yskas weggepak - jy moet dit aftel en 'n prop vind waar dit kan werk. Die yskas kan so nou en dan ontvries word. Verder was alles puik - behalwe dat daar nêrens iemand was van die bestuur nie so ons kon nie betaal nie.

Good overnight if you plan to drive through the gorge.

The cottage was clean and tidy with everything you need, especially considering the price. The ergonomics were a bit strange - the two plate electric stove can only work when the kitchen door is closed and the microwave is tucked away on top of the fridge - you have to count it down and find a plug where it can work. The fridge can be defrosted every now and then. Other than that, everything was great - except that there was no one from the management anywhere so we couldn't pay.

The cottage internally and externally requires maintenance.

Glass in kitchen door cracked with a hole. Outside door handle of bedroom fell off. Mattress needs to be replaced. Impossible to have a good night's sleep. Lounge couch and two chairs' cushions are dirty. The curtains in the bedroom are stained from water leakage at the windows and door. The floors in the kitchen and dining room are chipped/pitted. The open fireplace in the kitchen resulted in an overwhelming smell of smoke when trying to sleep. Fire made by previous people. The bin itself in the kitchen needs to be washed.

Rustig.

Oupatjie was 'n lekker ou om by oor te slaap. Rustig. Mooi sonsondergang, terwyl die skape kom nagsê het.

Excellent accommodation at very affordable pricing.

Excellent and very friendly accommodation. Clear travel instructions and very good accommodation facilities. Beautiful scenery but the road through the Kloof to Patensie is as far as we are concerned in a worse condition than when we travelled it in 2007.

'n Baie lekker en stil tydjie baie na aan die natuur.

Die ontvangs was uitstekend en alles baie netjies en skoon. Die water in die badkamerwasbak wou nie lekker vloei. 'n Heerlike oornagrusplek en ons sal dit beslis weer besoek.

Baviaanskloof Cottages ranks amongst the best accommodation that I have used to accommodate our geology group of 30 retirees throughout the Cape Province.

Rustig, gemaklik en baie lekker ontspanne

Ons het heerlik gebly en gerus en gekuier. Die padstal was uitkoms en ons het heerlik op die stoep gekuier. Sal graag meer pakplek in die kamer wil hê vir tasse en klere, al is dit sommer net hakke en rakke teen die mure. Badkamerstort was baie lekker gewees, kyk heerlik uit oor die kloof se berge as jy stort. Pakplek in die badkamer is ook beperk. Stoele of bankie om buite te sit ek kuier sal ook baie lekker wees. Sal verseker weer gaan.

Peaceful, comfortable and nice and relaxed.

We had a lovely stay and felt at peace and had a good time. The farm stall was our saving grace and we had such a nice time sitting on the stoep. Would have liked more packing space in the room for bags and clothes, even if it's just hooks and shelves against the wall. Shower in the bathroom ws very nice, you have a nice view over the kloof's mountains while you shower. Packing space in the bathroom is also limited. Chairs or a bench to sit outside would also be nice. Will definitely go again.

Ons kom weer!

Die Langhuis is so karaktervol en het aan al ons selfsorgvereistes voldoen. Heerlike beddens, warm water vir stort of bad, so ewe 'n keuse gehad! Volledig toegeruste kombuis, heerlike braaiboma onder daai pragtige groot boom. Helder sterrenag en omring met die mooiste berghange. Dit was 'n hoogtepunt op ons weeklange reis deur die Karoo. Ons beplan vir seker weer 'n volgende besoek daar!

We come again!

The Langhuis is so full of character and met all our self-catering requirements. Lovely beds, hot water for shower or bath, so had a choice! Fully equipped kitchen, delicious braai boma under that beautiful big tree. Clear starry night and surrounded by the most beautiful mountain slopes. It was a highlight on our week-long trip through the Karoo. We are definitely planning a next visit there!

Privaat, stil en rustig met 'n uitsig.

Gewoon in Ou Kerkie wat 'n alleenstaande eenheid is. Baie netjies en ruim. Kyk oor 'n dam uit met baie voëls. Baie rustig en mooi omgewing. Niemand gaan jou pla nie, nie eers jou selfoon nie.

So rustig en netjies ... goed vir die siel se rus.

Is baie verras oor die plekkie. Baie netjies en baie rustige omgewing. Een aand se oorslaap was nie genoeg nie. Hul moet net meer bordjies plaas vorentoe, want mens dink die hele tyd dat jy verdwaal het, want daar is geen sein vir ons stadsjapies wat net op GPS staatmaak nie, haha! Ongelooflike mooi omgewing. Sal weer hiervan gebruik maak, maar vir langer as een aand.

So calm and tidy... good for the soul's rest.

Very surprised about the place. Very neat and very peaceful environment. One night's sleep over was not enough. They just need to put more signs up ahead, because you always think you're lost, because there is no signal for us city jays who only rely on GPS, haha! Unbelievably beautiful environment. Would use this again, but for longer than one night.

Well situated but some urgent problems that need to be resolved.

Potentially a great stay. Well situated in the Baviaanskloof. The unit was tastefully decorated and clean on arrival. Communication from the hostess could have been better. We had to drive a bit to figure out where to get the keys and had to ask around where to pay our outstanding total. The worst problem, though, was a serious infestation of ants, the biting kind. My personal opinion is that this cottage should not be rented out until this problem is resolved; it really made it unpleasant.

Dit was nie my idee van 'n rustige wegbreek nie.

Met ons aankoms by Baviaans Guest Cottages was die ligging van ontvangs onduidelik. Die verblyf is enkele meters van die pad af en is dus raserig vir iemand op soek is na 'n stil wegbreek. Die opset binne-in Oupatjie was onprakties en die vuurmaakplek het baie gerook. Alles was skoon en netheid was deeglik.

This was not my idea of a peaceful getaway.

On our arrival at Baviaans Guest Cottages the location of reception was unclear. The accommodation is a few meters from the road and is therefore noisy for someone looking for a quiet getaway. The setup inside Oupatjie was impractical and the fireplace smoked a lot. Everything was clean and cleanliness was thorough.
