Quiet and peaceful. It was nice to stay there. For people who want to get away from the hustle and bustle and recharge their batteries, this is ideal. The wildlife viewing tour that the host gave us was terrific fun, and it was a feast for the eyes to be able to see the wildlife so close.

Stil en rustig. Dit was lekker om daar te bly. Vir mense wat wil wegkom van die gejaag en hulle batterye herlaai, is dit ideaal. Die wildbesigtingstoer wat die gasheer vir ons gegee het, was verskriklik lekker, en dit was 'n fees vir die oog om die wild so naby te kon sien.

Beautiful, relaxed & peaceful gem in the Waterberg! From start to finish the host of Syringa Sands was in touch with us. We could drive around and see everything as if it were our own farm! We went for a walk, we went to the Waterpoele, we went for a drive around. The Bosveld and Waterberge were fairytale beautiful. Accommodation is clean, tidy and safe. Everything you need is there. It was a lovely visit and we will definitely go back again! Keep it up!

Van begin tot einde was the host van Syringa Sands in verbinding met ons. Ons kon rondry en alles besigtig asof dit ons eie plaas was! Ons het gaan stap, ons is na die Waterpoele toe, gaan rondry met voertuig. Die Bosveld en Waterberge was sprokies mooi. Blyplek is skoon, netjies en veilig. Alles wat jy nodig het is daar. Was 'n heerlike kuier en ons gaan beslis weer terug! Keep it up!

Great weekend, deep in the woods. Wonderful experience so deep and secluded. The road is indeed long and difficult and must preferably be undertaken in daylight! At least 3 hours of travel. High clearance vehicle is required. Pack everything you need!

Heerlike naweek, diep in die bos. Wonderlike ervaring so diep en afgesonder. Die pad is wel lank en moeilik en moet liefs in daglig aangepak word! Ten minste 3ure se reis. High clearance voertuig is nodig. Pak als wat benodig word!

Five star, quality, tranquility, calmness and beautiful nature. Would recommend Syringa Sands Forest Cottage to people looking for quiet. We will also visit Syringa again.

Vyfster, gehalte, rustigheid, kalmte en mooi natuur. Sal Syringa Sands Forest Cottage aanbeveel aan mense wat stilte soek. Ons sal ook Syringa weer besoek.

Our best stay in South Africa. This was our best cottage during our 4 week trip through South Africa. The combination of the simple but complete accommodation with the exclusive location makes it one of the best places to spend your holiday. The accommodation has everything you need and is comfortable, spacious and clean. And the location is one we've seldom experienced. Really in the wilderness. And don't forget the hospitality of the owners, which was also outstanding, and the drive over the farm was amazing. One note: you really need a 4x4, we've got a BMW x3 which was okay for now, but during harder conditions probably wouldn't get us there because of the insufficient clearance. We would definitely go back, but unfortunately we're back in the Netherlands.

Relaxed getaway in woodland. Lovely quiet, scenic surroundings in the woodland. Comfortable accommodation and friendly and helpful host and hostess. Will visit again.

Ontspannede wegbreek in bosveld. Heerlike stil, natuurskoon omgewing in die bosveld. Gerieflike verblyf en vriendelike en behulpsaamheid van die gasheer en gasvrou. Sal weer besoek.

Wonderful, relaxing and peaceful. We had a lovely stay. We relaxed in the quietness and peacefulness. Our two grandsons saw so many new birds and loved it there.

What a peaceful escape! Our accommodation was beautiful, clean and well furnished with all the necessary accessories for easy self-catering. The silence, scenery and facilities were first class! It was the perfect getaway where you literally experience the forest with all your senses. The game farm is in an incredibly beautiful environment with streams, ponds and mountains. The forest and trees around the accommodation made it feel as if we were hidden in the middle of a forest. Every day different goats came to graze around the residence. Sean and Alex (hosts) are amazing people and were very hospitable, friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to make it very enjoyable for us. We really enjoyed the game drive and it was great to hear the history of the game farm and surroundings as well as to see the vegetation, giraffes and different goats. Thanks for everything! There is no cell phone reception, but we had WiFi in the accommodation all the time, even during Eskom's "loadshedding" - one big plus! Due to the rainy season, the roads are not accessible for a regular sedan car. We can definitely recommend it and will visit again in the future.

Wat ‘n rustige ontvlugting! Ons blyplek was pragtig, skoon en goed ingerig met al die nodige toebehore om maklik te selfsorg. Die stilte, natuurskoon en geriewe was eersteklas! Dit was die perfekte wegbreekplek waar jy letterlik die bos met al jou sintuie ervaar. Die wildsplaas is in ‘n ongelooflike mooi omgewing met waterstrome, damme en berge. Die bos en bome rondom die blyplek het dit laat voel asof ons in die middel van ‘n woud weggesteek is. Elke dag het verskillende bokke rondom die blyplek kom wei. Sean en Alex (gashere) is ongelooflike mense en was baie gasvry, vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Hulle het uit hul pad gegaan om dit vir ons baie lekker te maak. Die wildrit het ons baie geniet en dit was wonderlik om die geskiedenis van die wildsplaas en omgewing te hoor asook om die plantegroei, kameelperde en verskillende bokke te besigtig. Dankie vir alles! Daar is geen selfoonopvangs nie, maar ons het heeltyd WiFi in die blyplek gehad, selfs gedurende Eskom se “loadshedding” - een groot pluspunt! As gevolg van die reënseisoen is die paaie nie toeganklik vir 'n gewone sedanmotor nie. Ons kan dit beslis aanbeveel en sal dit weer in die toekoms besoek.
