A lovely picturesque farm getaway with all modern conveniences. In spite of arriving and departing in rain, our 2-day stay at The Little Farmhouse was most delightful. The spacious cottage has been perfectly renovated and is well appointed, with comfortable beds and warm bedding. Our hosts had even provided hot water bottles, and there was a gift of firewood to keep out the winter chill. One thing I missed was a pair of kitchen scissors! Very picturesque woods, a little waterfall, and a stream close by, with cows, sheep, and lambs on the farm track - we would love to return in summer!

Magical. We stayed at Overberg Gems - The Little Farmhouse for a silent retreat. It was peaceful and beautiful. But we were there for the flooding! Kevin - the farmer couldn't have been kinder - checked in on us to see if we were okay, brought extra wood when the electricity went down, let us stay an extra night for free when we got stuck there due to road closures in the storm. They also gave us a bowl of fresh farm eggs to welcome us. Wonderful people.

A good choice for a summer family getaway. I think that The Little Farmhouse is suitable for families with children. It is very rustic and laid back with a lovely wooded area in front with an outside hot tub, cold shower and braai area. The weather was very cold when we were there and due to the fact that it is situated amongst many trees, the actual house is freezing. As such, it is much better suited to a summer stay than a winter stay. We didn't make use of the farm itself as we spent time hiking etc off the farm. For us, it was a little too rustic, but I am sure it would suit many people. The showers were lovely and hot, the bed was comfortable. Drinking water was supplied separately.

Loved the cool farmhouse, hot tub, the donkeys, forest setting. Only irritation were the flies! And a good swimming spot.

Farmhouse getaway A+. This little gem can really be recommended. No cell phone reception or Wi-Fi, a real getaway. Why is nobody talking about the Lions' roars coming from Panthera Africa about 3.5 km away? A real treat. Neat, clean, comfortable stay. The hot tub works well, just follow the instructions to the T. Donkey-greetings in the mornings made for more excitement. The birdlife is amazing. Thank you for a beautiful 4 days. We will be back.

Best family weekend away! Wow! This place took my breath away! The house is old and full of antiques yet has everything you need. A massive porch overlooks the donkeys grazing on your lawn while steam rises from the wood-fired hot tub, the kids are running off into the forest to catch frogs or feed the Alpacas. Loadshedding hit one night while we were in the hot tub, but the air was clear so we stayed inside the warm water even longer while watching the starry night sky. There's no signal so the days are long and slow, perfect for a mental reset. But the ability to wonder off and explore the farm was my ultimate favourite! We're definitely coming back. Hands down best winter family holiday we've had in years! Warning: The owner refused to tell me, but there is a chemical in the hot tub water that puts you to sleep as soon as you get out of it! Haha!

A fantastic family extended weekend. We spent 4 days at the Little Farmhouse. A well appointed cottage that housed 5 of us comfortably. The hot tub was a welcome addition in the cold weather. The hot water bottles on the beds were a nice touch and were really needed.

Wonderful, fun, relaxing, home away from home, great experience overal. Beautiful setting, lovely and rustic farm house accommodation with everything you need. Nice and clean and neat. The hot tub is amazing and a really fun experience. The donkeys came to visit which was great, lots of space to explore, great hosts and just an all round great stay. Would highly recommend and will definitely go back!

Something else. We had a great time and played cards around the table on the porch. The small, heated pool was lovely to relax in. Braai was also a hit with fairy lights. Future visitors should only be informed that there is no WiFi or cell phone reception. The upstairs bedroom up stairs has no door. Persons sleeping in the upper room have to go through other rooms to get to the bathroom. Other 2 rooms have en-suite bathrooms. People just take note of it.

Iets anders. Ons het baie lekker gekuier en kaartgespeel om die tafel op die stoep. Die klein, verhitte swembad was heerlik om in te ontspan. Braai was ook treffer met feetjieligte. Toekomstige besoekers moet net ingelig word dat daar geen WiFi of selfoonopvangs is nie. Die boonste slaapkamer op met trappe het geen deur. Persone wat in boonste kamer slaap moet deur ander kamers gaan om by badkamer uit te kom. Ander 2 kamers het en suite-badkamers. Mense net kennis neem daarvan.
