Pure bliss in a perfect nature setting to break away from everything else. Fantastic location, views, comfort, clean and sufficient facilities and space. Everything a family needs for a relaxing breakaway. Enjoyed the challenging fly fishing experience to capture the attention of the elusive trout. Will certainly return to #14. Many thanks to the owners!

Quiet, very nice house in the mountains away from everything. Very nice weekend break with children and small children. The house needs some maintenance, especially with the wooden doors, but otherwise a very nice house with everything you need.

Rustig, baie mooi huisie in die berge weg van alles. Baie lekker naweek wegbreek saam kinders en klein kinders. Die huis het bietjie instandhouding nodig, veral met die houtdeure, maar andersins 'n baie lekker huis met alles wat mens nodig het.

Had a great relaxing weekend. The design, layout and mountain view of the unit is great. 4 x double rooms with en-suite bathrooms and enough cupboard space. The kitchen is fully stocked, except for a spatula and maybe some new tongs. The freezer containers have been damaged and need to be replaced. Concerns: A lot of the inside walls have damp damage, which needs to be repaired/repainted. The wooden door (upstairs) does not lock. The front veranda's wooden doors need to be looked at and the right-hand side has no door at all. Not all the lights were working, due to there being no globes on them.

A Scenic and Relaxing Getaway with Room for Improvement. We recently stayed at Unit 14 at Doornkop Fish and Wildlife Reserve and had an enjoyable experience. Pros: Breathtaking views - the view facing the mountain and stream is absolutely amazing. Standing outside, looking up at the mountain while listening to the calming stream, or simply gazing down at the water, was incredibly relaxing. Well-furnished and equipped - the house is really well furnished and equipped. We even had a coffee machine and two places to have a braai, adding to the convenience and comfort of our stay. Spacious bedrooms - the house features four bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom. Two of these rooms face the mountain and stream, offering stunning views, while the other two face the road and trout dam. Cons: Maintenance needed - the primary drawback is that the house does need some maintenance. One outer door is missing, but this wasn't a significant issue as the house remained warm inside. Additionally, it made it more convenient to step outside in the morning to enjoy the mountain view and stream sounds without going through two doors. The house needs a paint job and some waterproofing as the paint has started to bubble and peel off. One room facing the road has a serious bubbling paint problem, which made it less appealing for sleeping. The upstairs area also needs some work, but since we didn't use it, it wasn't a problem. Despite these issues, the house is still quite livable. However, if the waterproofing and paint job aren't addressed soon, it could become unlivable. In its current condition, I would definitely stay there again. Our stay was really fun, and we had everything we needed—except a spatula, which wasn’t a big deal as there were plenty of other utensils to use for cooking eggs. Overall, Unit 14 at Doornkop Fish and Wildlife Reserve provided a pleasant and memorable stay. We hope the necessary maintenance is carried out soon to preserve its charm and comfort for future guests.

Beautiful place with everything needed and we had a great time. We had a good time and it was enough for one night. We are disappointed not to be informed that there is no Vodacom mobile phone network. We feel it is essential. We also couldn't light the gas fires in the rooms at all - it seems that some of the gas bottles had been removed and the gas connections were faulty. A. g. No response, we couldn't call anyone.

Pragtige plek met alles wat nodig is en ons het heerlik gekuier. Ons het lekker gekuier en dit was voldoende vir een aand. Ons is teleurgesteld om nie in kennis gestel te word dat daar nie Vodacom selfoon netwerk is nie. Ons voel dit is noodsaaklik. Ons kon ook glad nie die gas kaggels in die kamers aansteek nie - dit blyk dat van die gasbottels verwyder is en die gaskoppelings foutief was. A. g. v geen opvangs kon ons niemand skakel nie.

Restful. Beautiful nature. Have a nice time. It was nice. The scenery is beautiful. The unit needs attention. The legs of the beds are creaky. Temporary supports under the double beds are only at mercy. One patio set doors off completely. We had a big storm and it rained. The winter is going to be a problem. There is no egg spatula in the kitchen. The glasses are insufficient. The dishwasher was a plus, thank you. There were plenty of pots, pans and crockery, thank you. The fishponds are very beautiful to look at and tidy. The fishing licenses are somewhat expensive at R250 per person. If the owner takes care of the above, I will come again. The maintenance has been addressed a few times now. If it gets attention, it's actually a very nice unit.

Rustig. Mooi natuur. Lekker gekuier. Dit was lekker. Die natuurskoon is pragtig. Die eenheid benodig aandag. Die beddens se pote is krakerig. Tydelike stutte onder die dubbelbeddens is net op genade. Een patio stel deure heeltemal af. Ons het 'n groot storm gehad en dit het ingereën. Die winter gaan 'n probleem wees. Daar is geen eierspaan in die kombuis nie. Die glase is onvoldoende. Die skottelgoedwasser was 'n plus, dankie. Daar was genoeg potte, panne en breekware, dankie. Die visdamme is baie mooi om na te kyk en netjies. Die vislisensies is ietwat duur teen R250 per persoon. As die eienaar na bogenoemde omsien, sal ek weer kom. Die instandhouding is nou al 'n paar keer aangespreek. As dit aandag kry, is dit eintlik 'n baie lekker eenheid.
