Off the grid living. Lovely getaway close to home. Would feel safer with WiFi and had to miss the Springboks game, but altogether a quiet, romantic stay. Thank you.

Hi Rosanne, Thank you for your review on Thatcher's Rest. Just to let you know that we have had the Wi-Fi reinstated and so far, it's working well. Over the past 14 years, we have found that most guests are really happy to get away from 'city/town stuff' like Wi-Fi, cell reception and TVs. However, we have also found of late, more and more guests are requesting Wi-Fi. Hopefully, you will visit again and should there be a good game on, please feel free to join us at our home to watch along with our friends and ourselves. Warm regards, June

If you want peace, this is for you. This was our second stay in what I call "a little piece of heaven". If you need to switch off with no access to any communications or electronic devices, look no further.

Absolutely stunning; I could have easily stayed there for three weeks! Our stay was idyllic. The location is one of the best I have experienced in the country, and the attention to detail to maintain a sense of peace and privacy, while providing fabulous outdoor amenities, was exceptional. The cottage was well-equipped, comfortable, and charming. I loved swimming in the dam, and my family enjoyed fishing. The customer service was outstanding. I forgot some of my clothes and jewelry, and they were promptly returned to me via courier, with my offer of reimbursement for costs waived as a favor. I will return to the accommodation at the first opportunity.

It was delicious. We were able to relax and had a fantastic view. We had a wonderful stay. We would have appreciated it if the hostess/gentleman had unpacked after us and examined everything, welcomed us. They order e.g. that you must let us know if you want to use cleaning service. How? There is no reception of any kind. We didn't have enough toilet paper. The master bedroom's shower leaked down onto the enclosed porch. For the price of the housing, they can provide enough wood for free. Otherwise everything was great.

Die was heerlik. Ons kon ontspan en het 'n fantastiese uitsig gehad. Ons het heerlik gebly. Ons sou dit net waardeer het as die gasvrou/heer ons na ons uitgepak en alles ondersoek het, ons kom welkom geheet het. Hulle beveel bv. aan dat jy moet laat weet as jy skoonmaakdiens wil gebruik. Hoe? Daar is geen ontvangs van enige aard nie. Ons het nie genoeg toiletpapier gehad nie. Die hoofslaapkamer se stort het gelek na benede op die toegeboude stoep. Vir die prys van die behuising, kan hulle gerus maar genoeg hout gratis voorsien. Andersins was alles puik.

Hi Mariette, in response to your review, we regret that you did not find everything to your satisfaction. We will address the issue with the shower, which was unfortunately unforeseen. Many self-catering establishments do not supply any firewood. We always supply the 'first fill and top up' in both the Boma area and the indoor fireplace. It is mentioned on our site that there is no cell phone signal at the cottage. All of our previous guests have mentioned that they appreciate the complete privacy they get once they are at the cottage. Regards, June

Hallo Mariette, in reaksie op jou resensie is ons spyt dat jy nie alles tot jou bevrediging gevind het nie. Ons sal die probleem met die stort aanspreek, wat ongelukkig onvoorsien was. Baie selfsorg-instansies verskaf geen vuurmaakhout nie. Ons verskaf altyd die 'eerste vul en vul op' in beide die Boma-area en die binnenshuise kaggel. Daar word op ons webwerf genoem dat daar geen selfoonsein by die kothuis is nie. Al ons vorige gaste het genoem dat hulle die volledige privaatheid waardeer wat hulle kry sodra hulle by die kothuis is. Groete, Junie

Absolutely stunning! Absolutely stunning accommodation built on water, surrounded by beautiful nature. This is a perfect place to reconnect with your loved ones and nature and enjoy peace, relaxation and tranquillity. We absolutely loved the rowing boat! The accommodation is well equipped and spacious with an amazing outside area. The glass patio is also stunning! I'd recommend this place to anyone; young, old, as a couple and as a family.

Quietest place under the sun! Everything 100% in working condition, beautiful place. Road just very bad! No reception for mobile phones. Will visit again.

Rustigste plekkie onder die son! Alles 100% in werkende toestand, pragtige plek. Pad net baie sleg! Geen opvangs vir selfone. Sal weer gaan kuier.

Very neat house in such a peaceful place. A wonderful home for those who love nature, tranquillity, solitude and fishing. A cosy house, with a beautiful deck where you can spend not only sunny days but evenings around the boma. We spent an absolutely wonderful time there alone with nature.
