The perfect sleepover in Bavian.
Everything is beautiful, clean and tidy, and the kitchen in the accommodation is fully equipped with everything needed. The hostess was very friendly and helpful, and gave good advice on activities in the area. We had a great time around the barbecue fire in the quiet and peaceful surroundings.

Silence, peace and quiet.
Our reservation was for the Goat and Ostrich unit, but the owners made the big old farmhouse available to us which was a great surprise. We were received very kindly, felt very welcome and were even allowed to book ahead of time. There are three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a very large well appointed kitchen, lounge and a fantastic massive veranda. It was very nice and comfortable and we could get the feeling of farm life again, which was the icing on the cake. The house was neat, comfortable and very comfortable and the braai facilities were also very nice. We really enjoyed hanging out on the stoep and just being able to take in the silence and natural beauty. Had a great time and slept and was completely rested for our tour through the nature reserve.

Very nice stay in the house with plunge pool.
House is private with 5 bedrooms and enough facilities at a reasonable price per person, so good value for money. The freshwater splash pool was a lifesaver on an extremely hot day in the Kloof. Would love to stay there again.

We stayed in a lovely large farmhouse, with a small swimming pool. We could walk a long way on the farm and enjoy the area. It was also a big plus that we had a fence around the house to keep our dogs separated from the farm activities. Friendly service. Thank you very much.
