17 guests' feedbackAfter quite a tough year so far, we were looking forward to a quiet, stress-free and peaceful breakaway. And that's exactly what we got. Joanne has created a well thought out, safe, private and beautiful bush getaway that provides you with a deluxe and comfy king size 4 poster bed, a rustic bathroom that ticks all the boxes, a crystal clear mini pool, a braai and bonfire area, and the most relaxing recliner rocking chairs you've ever watched the sunset on. All the things most other hosts forget, Joanne has considered.
Wonderful scenery, very private and cozy. Friendly and helpful host. Would definitely recommend!
Absolutely amazing, relaxing and the host is the most attentive and kind. Action was extremely helpful and pleasant as well. Will definitely be going back here again! Loved the place. Deposit of R500 to be refunded to, please.
Our stay was amazing, peaceful, and beautiful. Loved being in the bush and experiencing the lovely green scenery with a splash to cool down.
Good break from the hustle and bustle of the city.
We had a lovely time at Basil's Boma - tranquil and relaxing - the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the busy city! The bush chalet unit was perfect. The bed was super comfortable, and we woke up to a lovely view in the mornings, where we then went for early morning hikes up the beautiful mountain. We loved that the kitchen was outside (it was very functional) and the braai area was so big. The wrap around patio with 3 wooden glass doors that opened provided a lovely breeze and openness to the place. It was wonderful that there was a small dipping pool for hot days, but it was freezing! Overall, we had the most amazing experience, and we will definitely be back!
Friendly, good service.
After a struggle with a place that canceled on us we were able to get a place at Basils Boma at short notice and they stood by us and carried us on their hands. Thank you very much for the wonderful service and kindness. If I could give you 10 stars then I would.
Nice walking trails.
Baie gasvry en vriendlike ontvangs. Eienaar is n kenner van die area en altyd behulpsaam.
The place is amazing. Ideal weekend and getaway.
We had a great time and recharged our batteries for the busy week.
Easy access to mountain bike trails that run through the farm. The accommodation was well maintained, neat and we will definitely return to get a break from the city.
Perfect unique place for getting away from the city. Netjies and Joanne make so much effort. Would definitely recommend Basils Boma.
See stars.
Terribly good and good hospitality! Enjoyed the company and the privacy even more! Only you, wifey and the forest!
We had a great time, the tranquility of nature and sitting around the campfire in the evening was food for the soul! Will be able to recommend for sure. Neat, clean and 10 out of 10 for hospitality.
