Exceptional setting and accommodation. We were pleasantly surprised with the cottage (Zebra), neat and well equipped. Ample wood was provided to drive away the cold with the stove. The surroundings are beautiful, peaceful and soul-enriching. Stars were beautiful because there is no air pollution. The walk to the waterfall was quite tough, just over 1 hour until there's a tough walk. But it was worth it. Our Beagle dog enjoyed the weekend just as much. Definitely recommend. Thank goodness for no cell phone signal, could put the phones away and take in the surroundings.

Uitsonderlike omgewing en akkommodasie. Ons was aangenaam verras met die kothuis (Zebra), netjies en goed toegerus. Oorgenoeg hout was voorsien om die koue met die kagel te verdryf. Die omgewing is pragtig, rustig en sielverrykend. Sterre was pragtig, want daar is geen lugbesoedeling. Die stap na die waterval was nogals taai, net oor 1 uur tot daar se taai stap. Maar dit was die moeite werd. Ons Beagle hond het die naweek net so geniet. Beslis aan te beveel. Dankie tog vir geen selfoon sein, kon die fone wegsit en die omgewing inneem.

Lovely well equipped cottage. Beautiful surroundings. Kind attentive staff. Not only was the cottage well equipped with everything we needed, but it was also great to see that there was even provision for animals (bowls, leashes). Lots of firewood was more than enough for the rainy weather we experienced. Loved the closeness of the farm animals and the staff was very attentive and kind when we arrived to ensure we were settled in. We loved seeing the wild animals being fed and the waterfall and rockpool. Communication was great. We advise alternative roads because of the rain. Easy, no-fuss process. We will definitely be back.

Peaceful visit. Nice environment. Staff very helpful. Have a great time and relax in front of the fireplace. Bonus: pet-friendly.

Rustige kuier. Mooi omgewing. Personeel baie behulpsaam. Heerlik gekuier en ontspan voor kaggelvuur. Bonus: troeteldiervriendelik.

Secluded, peaceful and beautiful. Very nice few days spent there in December. The road directions were perfect and very clear. The roads were washed out due to the lot of rain so the owner kept me updated 2 days before our arrival with progress by the roads administration to push the roads open. The owner was willing to give a full refund but we decided to wait and see if the roads were opened and they were! We were very happy to visit there and the caretaker Tyler was very friendly and assisted us with anything. There was only one really cold evening but Tyler made sure that there was plenty of dry wood available for the fireplace (and for the barbecue). Fantastic place for people looking for some rest for their soul.

Afgeleë, rustig en pragtig. Baie lekker paar dae daar spandeer in Desember. Die padaanwysings was perfek en baie duidelik. Die paaie was verspoel weens die baie reën so die eienaar het my 2 dae voor ons aankoms op hoogte gehou met vordering deur die paaie administrasie om die paaie oop te stoot. Die eienaar was bereid om volledige terugbetaling te doen maar ons het besluit om te wag en sien of die paaie oopgemaak word en dit was! Ons was baie gelukkig om daar te kuier en die opsigter Tyler was baie vriendelik en het ons bygestaan met enigeiets. Daar was slegs een regteige koue aand maar Tyler het gesorg dat daar oorgenoeg droë hout beskikbaar was vir die kaggel (en vir die braai). Fantastiese plek vir mense wat so bietjie rus vir hul siel soek.

Bo Kouga is a fantastic family getaway! There is no signal - we laughed, hung out, played and talked like never before! The view is breathtaking! We took the walking route and it was tough on our city jays but also worth the waterfall! A hidden gem! The accommodation is top class and plain and simple all in one. It was nice and comfortable and beautiful in one word! There are goats, animals, sheep, kayaks, ponds, nature from a fairy tale! We will go again for sure! It was the most enjoyable, peaceful three days we have ever had! Fun and rest like never before! The place is so beautifully hidden, it's a piece of paradise hidden away in the mountains!

Bo Kouga is 'n fantastiese familie-wegkomplekkie! Daar is geen sein nie - ons het gelag, gekuier, gespeel en gesels soos nog nooit vantevore nie! Die uitsig is asemrowend! Ons het die staproete aangevat en dit was tough op ons stadsjapies maar ook die waterval werd! 'n Hidden gem! Die akkommodasie is topklas en plain and simple in een. Dit was lekker gemaklik en pragtig in een woord! Daar is bokke, diere, skapies, kajakke, damme, natuur uit 'n sprokie! Ons sal vir seker weer gaan! Dit was die lekkerste, rustigste drie dae wat ons nog gehad het! Pret en rus soos nog nooit tevore nie! Die plekkie is so mooi versteek, dit is 'n stukkie paradys doer in die berge versteek!

A wonderful time away in beautiful nature. A wonderful time where we disconnected from the outside world so that we could reconnect with ourselves. Beautiful scenery. The cottage is comfortably furnished and very tidy. Our dog-kids enjoyed the walks and were safe and snug while we relaxed. Lovely fireplace inside and enough wood allowed us to have a good time even with the cold and wet weather. We will definitely visit again.

'n Wonderlike wegbreektyd in pragtige natuur. 'n Heerlike tyd waar ons diskonnekteer het van die buite-wêreld sodat ons weer kon konnekteer met onsself. Pragtige natuurskoon. Die kothuis is gerieflik ingerig en baie netjies. Ons honde-kinders het die stappies geniet en was veilig en toegekamp terwyl ons ontspan het. Lieflike kaggel binne en genoeg hout het ons lekker laat kuier selfs met die koue en nat weer. Ons sal beslis weer kom kuier.

Peaceful, breathtaking surroundings. It is the most beautiful place between mountains and the sugar bushes are in bloom. We walked to the waterfall and everywhere you marvel at the natural beauty. The house is cozy and well equipped and every day the big turtle and the cats come to say hello. We will for sure rest there again.

Rustige, asemrowende omgewing. Dit is die mooiste plek tussen berge en die suikerbosse is in blom. Ons het waterval toe geloop en oral vergaap jy jou aan die natuurskoon. Die huisie is knus en goed toegerus en elke dag het die groot skilpad en die katte kom dagsê. Ons sal vir seker weer daar gaan uitrus.

Heavenly silence. We stayed here for about 2 nights. The silence, nature sounds and breathtaking natural scenes had been heavenly. Tyler, the caretaker, was also very friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful rest.

Hemelse stilte. Ons het so 2 aande hier oorgestaan. Die stilte, natuurgeluide en asemrowende natuurtonele was hemels gewees. Tyler, die opsigter, was ook baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het heerlik gerus.
