Value for money. Neat, clean and friendly staff.
Friendly reception immediately made us feel at home. Clean tidy and highly recommended. The breakfast was well prepared. We enjoyed the morning of our departure on the stoep and had a beautiful view of the surroundings. Highly recommended if you want to relax and love nature. Our time there was just too short.

I enjoyed my 3 days there and will go again.
The staff ware friendly and went above and beyond what I expected. I got the feeling that the staff was really interested in making my time there as pleasant as possible. They were ready to supply me with anything I need. I really enjoyed the view and quiet. It was exactly what I needed. I was happy to see that they are working on the gravel road to make it better.

Dear Mr Barad,
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review, and for your feedback about the service received. When we spoke on the phone I recommended Keepers Cottage as I felt it would be suitable for you and your family. I was not in reception at that point, so asked if you wouldn’t mind sending me an email with all we discussed so I could send you info in the morning. On Monday I received your call before I had a chance to attend to your email - my apologies for this.
I believe there was an innocent misunderstanding regarding the oil. We do keep a small stock of necessities for guests in our Homestead shop, so when you called asking for cooking oil I let you know that we have in our Homestead shop. When you told me you only needed a little bit for breakfast this was arranged and I personally brought the oil to you in the cottage.
I sincerely apologize if you felt I was not very nice or helpful and we can assure you that this is not the level of service we wish our guests to experience.
We thank you for choosing to stay with us and trust you had a wonderful time, and we were so pleased to be able to share our peaceful corner of the African Bush with you and your family.
Kind Regards,
Cheryl Bingham

Still excellent service.
2 years back we spent a weekend at Tomjachu and were very impressed with their service, accommodation and view. With our second visit this year (Keepers Cottage) we were even more impressed with the beautiful renovations. We also appreciated Nadine and Jack's friendliness and service. What a gem you have in the bushveld which we would surely recommend to any couple looking for a quiet, romantic breakaway weekend.

Beautiful surroundings and very peaceful.
My mother and father's bedding was not clean. The cushions on the inside were old and dirty and had no plastic covers. After her arrival home she was full of bite marks and was diagnosed by a doctor with rickettsia. It seems like something bit her in the room. We stayed in another chalet and had no problems. I am only disappointed because I paid for the holiday. Bedding must be clean as well as the bed itself.

Dear Reina
We are very disappointed to hear that you were unhappy with your experience at Tomjachu. We choose not use plastic pillow covers as many of our guests find them uncomfortable, and all our linen is fastidiously cleaned, and all linen, mattresses and pillows are steam cleaned before guest arrival.
We are very sorry to hear about your mother's diagnosis with Rickettsia, however Rickettsia is a condition most commonly associated with African Tick Bite Fever, and our location in the bush on a reserve does increase the chances of infection through tick bites, especially pepper ticks which are difficult to see. It is unlikely that she contracted this illness through something biting her in the room.
We apologise if you felt any discomfort during your stay, but we do maintain very high standards of cleanliness and hygiene on the property.
We do hope you will visit us again and that we can impress you upon your return.

Delicious pampering in nature.
Very nice, clean and tidy lodge - and beautiful nature! Privacy is ensured. Service is very friendly and efficient. The unit was serviced every day, including Sunday and the holiday. The braai is cleaned every day and new wood is supplied daily. Lights are hung on the porch every afternoon, which creates a romantic atmosphere. It's spoiled! Next time we will book the unit with its own private pool!
