Heerlike wegkomgeleentheid vanaf die daaglikse geharwar en besige lewe.

Pragtige natuurskoon en verskeidenheid staproetes. Die gasvryheid en diens was uitstekend.

Pragtige plek, swak ingerigte huis.

Die omgewing en stapplekke is onverbeterlik. Die huisie self lyk egter of daar baie lanklaas aandag aan gegee is. Vier poedingborde bv. vir ses mense, vyf groot borde, te min glase, en geen vadoeke of afdroogdoeke, 'n lig sonder 'n gloeilamp in en 'n deurhandvatsel wat aan een skroef hang en sommer afgeval het na dag een. Dit lyk nie of enige iemand gehaltebeheer toepas en die plek inspekteer voor gaste opdaag nie, en dit vergelyk swak met ander plekke in dieselfde prysklas. Wat baie jammer is, want die plaas self is lieflik. Die inwonende opsigters is baie gaaf en tegemoetkomend, maar iemand moet kyk dat die huis ordentlik toegerus is voor gaste arriveer.

Beautiful place, poorly furnished house.

The surroundings and walking places are unbeatable. However, the cottage itself looks like it hasn't been attended to in a very long time. Four pudding plates e.g. for six people, five large plates, too few glasses, and no dish towels or paper towels, a light without a bulb in it and a door handle that hangs from one screw and just fell off after day one. It doesn't seem like anyone applies quality control and inspects the place before guests arrive, and it compares poorly to other places in the same price range. Which is a shame, because the farm itself is lovely. The resident caretakers are very nice and accommodating, but someone needs to see that the house is properly equipped before guests arrive.

Ons waardeer hierdie terugvoer. Ons het die probleem met huishouding aangespreek om te verseker dat Lavender-kothuis die uitstaande ervaring bied wat gaste verwag.

Stunning views.

Rockhaven Guest Farm is well worth a visit if only because of it's stunning views and remote location. The cottage was rustic but clean and comfortable. The walks absolutely lovely except they are poorly signposted. My only real beef with this places the totally inadequate directions. I don't mind going over a steep mountain pass but would like to know when I'm on it that I am going in the right direction. But if you want to be gob smacked by incredible natural beauty, great bird-life and spectacular flora, this is the place to go!

'n Wêreld weg vir 'n wegbreek!

Die private en spesiale ligging van hierdie kothuis is ideaal om weg te breek en te rus! Dis pragtig, die omgewing - en wat is lekkerder as om in die koue reënweer vuur te maak en die mis orals buite te geniet. Ons is wel dankbaar dat ons met 'n bakkie die nat modderpad aangevat het.

A world away for a getaway!

The private and special location of this cottage is ideal to get away and rest! It is beautiful, the area - and what is nicer than making a fire in the cold and rainy weather and enjoy the fog hanging everywhere outside. We were grateful, though, that we took on the wet and muddy road with a bakkie.

An area of outstanding beauty, dark starry nights, and deep peace. A wonderful place.

The remote rocky mountainous area is one of exceeding beauty. The accommodation provided is comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, and the cottages sits discretely within the landscape. Everything one needs is provided, in a quiet understated way. There is a lovely harmony between the natural world and the cottages on the farm. Swimming in the dam and in the river pools was wonderful. Jaap and his wife were charming, and assisted us with whatever we needed. I would love to spend more time there: the starry nights and the quiet world were wonderful.

Vredevol.

Hul sê dis dierevriendelik, maar hul 2 honde het met ons s'n kom baklei op ons stoep. Eerder nie dierevriendelik aandui nie. Andersins was dit heerlike plek wat rustigheid skep. Pragtig verby!

Peacefully.

They say it's animal friendly, but their 2 dogs got into a fight with ours on our porch. Rather not indicate animal friendly. Otherwise, it was a lovely place that creates tranquility. Beautifully over!

Thank you for your positive review. We will address the problem with the dogs. Please note that we prefer only one dog per guest cottage.
