Surrounded by nature. This place is not just a place to sleep - it is an experience you will remember for a long time. Joel is very hospitable and happy to help ensure that you land safely and knows how everything works at the cottage. The surroundings and view from the stoep are incredibly beautiful. We sat here for hours staring and relaxing. The thunderstorm in the night was not relaxing, but the fantastic smell of the wet field made up for the little stress. Mind you, you are in the wild, take insect repellent with you.

Omring deur die natuur. Hierdie plek is nie net 'n oorslaapplek nie - dit is 'n ervaring wat jy lank sal onthou. Joel is baie gasvry en help graag om te sorg dat jy veilig aanland en weet hoe alles werk by die huisie. Die omgewing en uitsig vanaf die stoep is ongelooflik mooi. Ons het ure hier gesit en gestaar en heerlik ontspan. Die donderstorm in die nag was wel nie ontspannend nie, maar die fantastiese reuk van die nat veld het opgemaak vir die bietjie stres. Let wel, jy is in die wilde natuur, neem maar insekafweerder saam.

Green accommodation, friendly, quiet, rest. Incredible view, location, silence and friendly host. Super environmentally friendly.

Groen verblyf, vriendelik, stil, rus. Ongelooflike uitsig, ligging, stilte en vriendelike gasheer. Super omgewingsvriendelik.

You can't get closer to nature. Fantastic 'off the grid' weekend close to nature. Blissful and refreshingly close to nature. Beautiful view.

Nader aan die natuur kan jy nie kom nie. Fantastiese 'off the grid' naweek naby die natuur. Salig en verfrissend naby aan die natuur. Pragtige uitsig.

Ultimate getaway! Joel's Cottage truly is a hidden gem on the most beautiful hillside. The views are beautiful and the attention to detail in the cottage is of very high quality. Everything you would need is in the well-equipped kitchen. The pool and outside bathroom are magnificent. We'll be back soon!

So special, we would love to go there again. Very nice! The place is a gem of silence and natural beauty, ideal for a few nights' getaway. Clean mountain water, solar heating for hot water and even a donkey in case the sun doesn't shine. Plenty of free wood. Well equipped kitchen and braai equipment.

So spesiaal, ons sal graag weer soontoe gaan. Baie lekker! Die plek is 'n juweel met stilte en natuurskoon, ideaal vir 'n paar nagte se wegbreek. Skoon bergwater, sonverwarming vir warm water en selfs 'n donkie vir ingeval die son nie skyn nie. Volop gratis hout. Goed toegeruste kombuis en braai-toerusting.

Definitely a place to go visit. Absolutely fantastic stay at Joel's. This is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature, scenic views, peace and quiet. Our 3 nights' stay was too short. We'll be back in the summer.

Hi Wickus, thank you for the kind words. It was my pleasure to host you guys. Looking forward to seeing you sooner rather than later. Take care always.

Hi Wickus, dankie vir die mooi woorde. Dit was my plesier om julle te huisves. Sien daarna uit om jou vroeër eerder as later te sien. Pas altyd op.
