Quiet and just what we needed, away from the hustle and bustle of life. Everything was neat and tidy and our guests were top notch. They made us feel comfortable and if anything was needed, they were there to help. The supply of wood and blitz and just a whole pack of ice was extra special. Only minor inconvenience was the double bed. The base cracked a bit and I felt the inner springs of the mattress. Was a bit uncomfortable.

Rustig en net wat ons nodig gehaad het, weg van die gewoel van die lewe. Alles was mooi netjies en ons gaste, was uit die boonste rakke uit. Ons lekker gerus laat voel en indien enigiets nodig, was hul daar om te help. Die verskaf van hout en blitz en sommer hele pak ys, was ekstra spesiaal. Enigste klein ongerief was die dubbelbed. Die basis het so bietjie gekraak en ek het die matras se binnevere gevoel. Was bietjie ongemaklik.

If you need silence in style, Jantjieskraal is the place to be. It was just two days of peace and rest. We were received with open arms. Nothing out of place. Had a great sleep, made a big fire and just relaxed on Jantjieskraal's yard. It's our people. Thank you for such a privilege!

Wie stilte in styl nodig het, is Jantjieskraal die plek om te wees. Dit was sommer net twee dae van vrede en rus. Ons is met ope arms ontvang. Niks uit plek uit nie. Heerlik geslaap, groot vuur gemaak en net ontspan op Jantjieskraal se werf. Dis onse mense. Dankie vir so 'n voorreg!

It is a beautiful farm - an artist's dream because there is so much to paint. We were there during the flower season and the flowers were breathtaking and the delicious sweet smells of fynbos were everywhere. If you love birds, there is a paradise of different birds - during the day and at night. There is great walking and the farm is very safe. We never felt scared. The farmer's house is also only a few meters away.

Dit is 'n pragtige plaas - 'n kunstenaar se droom, want daar is so baie om te skilder. Ons was daar tydens die blommetyd en die blomme was asemrowend en die heerlike soet reuke van fynbos was orals. As jy lief is vir voëls, is daar 'n paradys van verskillende voëls - in die dag en die nag. Daar is heerlike stapplek en die plaas is baie veilig. Ons het nooit bang gevoel nie. Die boer se huis is ook net 'n paar meter daarvandaan.

Waters and meadows where there is rest. The owners were wonderfully hospitable, helpful and friendly hosts. The environment itself forces busy city dwellers to deeply relax and take in the nature, silence, and animal life. The 2km walk to the Berg River was an easy, beautiful and educational outing (there is even a picnic spot by the river if you want to linger there for a while). The cool little house made for fun on the 30+ degree days, so even in midsummer it's a nice getaway. I will go again!

Waters en weivelde waar daar rus is. Die eienaars was wonderlike gasvrye, behulpsaam en vriendelike gashere. Die omgewing self dwing besige stadsjapies om diep te ontspan en die natuur, stilte, en dierelewe in te neem. Die 2km stap na die Bergrivier was 'n maklike, mooi en opvoedkundige uitstappie (daar is selfs 'n piekniekplekkie langs die rivier as jy 'n rukkie daar wil vertoef). Die koel huisie het gesorg vir lafenis op die 30+ grade dae, so selfs in midsomer is dit 'n lekker wegbreekplek. Ek sal weer gaan!

Peaceful relaxation. Very friendly hosts, 2 separate units connected by an open stoep (patio): kitchen/lounge and bedroom/bathroom. Very peaceful, a birding paradise.

This break away was just what we needed. Lovely, historical, off-grid cottage and beautiful farm. We loved our stay at Jantjieskraal. The birdsong at dawn and dusk. The farm animal sounds. The walk to the Berg River. The sunset bench at the big tree. The fynbos. The cute little cottage. Thank you Ilze and Giel for sharing you beautiful farm with others. We would love to visit again one day!

Terribly peaceful atmosphere. On a farm, goats bleating and cows lowing, lovely scenery. Very quiet for the person who wants to get away from the city's hustle and bustle.

Vreeslike rustige atmosfeer. Op 'n plaas, skapies blêr en koeie bulk, lieflike natuurskoon. Vreeslik rustig vir die persoon wat wil wegbreek van die stad se rumoer.

Calm, quiet. Ilze makes a lot of effort to pass on information that predicts that the visit will meet our expectations. Friendly reception, everything was as in the photos, clean and tidy. Lots of wood with which we could keep away the winter cold and hang out until late at night. Lovely walk and enjoying nature. Would just prefer the cottage to be further from the main house, overlooking the field.

Rustig, stil. Ilze doen baie moeite om inligting deur te gee wat voorspel dat die kuier aan ons verwagting sal voldoen. Vriendelik ontvang, alles was soos op die foto's, skoon en netjies. Baie hout waarmee ons die winterkoue kon weghou en tot laat aand kuier. Heerlik gestap en die natuur geniet. Sou net verkies dat die kothuis verder van die hoofhuis is, met uitsig oor die veld.
