Awesome.

I was a bit sceptical when we arrived. We were met by the incredible host, who allayed any concerns that we had. Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable. We met other visitors from abroad who became friends. I would recommend the site to other people. We would definitely be back. Thank you for the warm hospitality.

Beeldskoon, rustig, vriendelik.

Ons het vir 2 nagte gaan kamp opslaan by Khotso. Met aankoms was ons baie vriendelik gegroet. Khotso self asook die omliggende omgewing is verskriklik mooi en bied die siel 'n baie rustige ervaring. Die kampterrein is netjies, skoon en elke staanplek het 'n kragpunt beskikbaar. Die ablusiegeriewe is netjies en skoon met gasgeysers wat heerlike warm storte bied in die koue weer. Daar is 'n gemeenskaplike kombuis met 'n yskas wat die nodige items koud kan hou. Daar is ook 'n opwas wat gebruik kan word. Bring maar jou eie eetgerei, potte en panne. Khotso bied 'n eerlikheidssnoepie waar mens van 'n paar alkoholiese drankies, koeldranke, tjippies en tjokkies kan kies en dan jou rekening eers aan die einde van jou kuier kan betaal. Hulle bied ook groot sakke hout teen R80 om 'n lekker atmosvuurtjie mee te maak. Let egter dat hierdie hout nie die beste is vir kole om op te braai nie (verloor vinnig sy hitte) maar is wonderlike hout vir gesellige vlamme. Maak ook gerus 'n draai by Khotso se koffiewinkel (Balam River Deck) wat so paar honderd meter weg is van die plaas. Die koffiewinkel maak verskriklike lekker koffie en sit op die oewer van die Mzimkhulu-rivier wat sorg vir 'n beeldskone uitsig. Algeheel was ons tyd by Khotso se kampterrein net 'n groot plesier en aangename ervaring en die personeel se vriendelikheid en vinnige geselsies laat mens baie welkom voel.

Picturesque, peaceful, friendly.

We went to camp at Khotso for 2 nights. Upon arrival we were greeted very kindly. Khotso itself as well as the surrounding environment is incredibly beautiful and offers the soul a very peaceful experience. The campsite is neat, clean and every pitch has a power point available. The ablution facilities are neat and clean with gas geysers that offer delicious hot showers in the cold weather. There is a communal kitchen with a fridge that can keep the necessary items cold. There is also a sink that can be used. Bring your own cutlery, pots and pans. Khotso offers an honesty bar where you can choose from a few alcoholic drinks, soft drinks, tjippies and tchokkies and then only pay your bill at the end of your visit. They also offer large bags of wood for R80 to make a nice atmospheric fire. However, note that this wood is not the best for embers to grill on (loses its heat quickly) but is great wood for cozy flames. Also feel free to visit Khotso's coffee shop (Balam River Deck), which is a few hundred meters away from the farm. The coffee shop makes delicious coffee and sits on the banks of the Mzimkhulu River which makes for a picturesque view. Overall, our time at Khotso's campsite was just a great pleasure and pleasant experience and the staff's friendliness and quick chats make you feel very welcome.

Quiet and serene - stunning scenery.

We arrived a bit earlier and they were not ready yet. However, the room was clean and everything was available to us in the cottage - even down to tea and coffee. I wouldn't really recommend it for young teenagers as there isn't much for them to do, but it's still a lovely and quiet place.

Goeie kampplek, mooi ligging.

Lieflike ruim kamp staanplekke langs 'n klein rivier en by die voet van 'n krans. Baie mooi uitsig vanaf die krans. Kragpunte is by kampplekke beskikbaar.

Good campsite, nice location.

Lovely spacious campsites next to a small river and at the foot of a cliff. Very nice view from the cliff. Power points are available at campsites.

Aangenaam, ontspannend, rustig.

Die gastehuis was toegerus met die nodige. Die kombuis wat tot almal se gebruik is met 'n heerlike AGA antrasiet stoof wat 24 uur brand was baie effektief. Ons het dit geniet. Die kamer baie skoon. Ons verblyf was aangenaam/huislik.

Skoon en netjies.

Ek was baie verbaas toe ek die kampeer badkamer sien, dit is baie baie skoon en netjies. Die kombuis was ook baie skoon en alles was verskaf soos potte, panne en skottelgoedseep.

Clean and tidy.

I was very surprised when I saw the camping bathroom, it is very very clean and tidy. The kitchen was also very clean and everything was provided such as pots, pans and dish soap.

Vet pret!

Nie 'n braaier by die rondawel nie maar dit het gereën so dit het nie saakgemaak nie. Krag was af maar dit het dit lekkerder gemaak!

Fat fun!

Not a braai at the rondavel but it was raining so it didn't matter. Power was off but that made it more fun!

Asemrowende experience!

On arrival we had the most friendly reception and introduction to the facility. Everybody is so accommodating and friendly. There is loads to do and the most beautiful scenery. For mountain bikers and trail runners the trails at the old Duck is a must well marked and maintained trails! Horse riding at Khotso looked very well organised and the horses is in a very good condition. Tube rides on the river in the midst of the heat also a definite plus!

Needs to be updated, very Spartan

Lack of cooking utensils, not even an egg lifter. Feels isolated and the veranda should have a table and chairs to enjoy the nice view. Needs some love and TLC and it would be a nice little spot.

Gemaklik!

Baie aangename "backpackers" in die Suidelike Drakensberge naby Underberg. Kan dit ten volle aanbeveel! Al wat hulle kort is mikrogolfoond!

Very pleasant backpackers in the southern Drakensberg close to Underberg. Can definitely recommend it! The only thing they need is a microwave!

Rustiek, maar baie snoesig en gerieflik en niks wat skort nie.

Lekker. Sal weer kom as ek die kans kry.

Poor running of a great venue.

I cannot say it was a pleasant experience. Photos did not match the wretched, run down place we had to stay in. The beds and bedding was old and broken, the toilets weren't working and staff was not friendly or helpfull at all. Breakfast was good though ... we were starving at that point ...

Vir 'n "backpackers" was dit goed.

Ek sal aanbeveel dat elke kamer 'n klein spieël kry en die badkamer meer gereeld skoongemaak word. Ons het gesukkel met die warm water (stort). Maar soos ek sê - goed vir 'n "backpackers".

For a "backpackers" it was good.

I would recommend that every room gets a small mirror and the bathroom be cleaned more often. We struggled with the hot water (shower). But as I say - good for a "backpackers".
