18 guests' feedbackWe had a really relaxing time at Blommekloof. Our fur baby was with us and he could run around the premises without us worrying as the cottage is fenced, that was really nice. I have been to quite a few self-catering accommodations, and this is the first time I came to a kitchen that had everything you could think of you would need on your holiday, even a kitchen scale was in the cupboard. I would like to recommend that maybe a pool be installed for the summer months and maybe a rowing boat or canoe the guest can use as there is not much for teenagers to do but overall the accommodation is value for money and we would definitely be returning. Thanks to Ali for being a wonderful host.
Had a great time. It rained all the time and the access road was a bit washed out. Place itself well equipped and very tidy.
Calm and quiet. Can switch off nicely and Ali is very helpful.
We enjoyed our time at Blommekloof, especially the variety of vegetation and garden. Playground for children. Nice ponds, unfortunately the bass didn't want to bite. The fireplace does not smoke well and can fill the whole house with smoke, be careful. The children really enjoyed the farm animals.
The Sunflower Cottage is a beautiful spacious place for 4 people. The farm fresh eggs were a nice treat. The porch is surrounded by trees and vegetation so it is very private. The cottage has everything you need. The farm animals' sounds are also wonderful.
We had a very nice stay. Made fire all the time, atmosphere was great!
Value for money, clean, tidy, well appointed. The area is great, close enough to everything and secluded enough to get away from the city's rush and noise.
In contrast to a previous review "The silence is noisy" we would rather put it this way: The silence nourishes the soul and the inside, the silence is delicious, the surroundings beautiful, the place of residence clean and has everything needed in place, hospitable receipt. One good word that can sum everything up is "wonderful" if you are tired of life in the city (or town), pack your bag and come enjoy the beauty of nature and enjoy the peace and quiet.
My little town doggie had a great time among the farm animals for the first time in her life. Wonderful hiking, fishing, and relaxation, reading and nights around the campfire. The service was outstanding and the decor was excellent, contributed to lovely rest.
It was wonderful to get away from the city noise. No TV, no cell phone and no internet reception. If you want to get away from it all, this is the place for you. My children really enjoyed playing on the farm. They were all the way into the chicken coop. The children also enjoyed playing with the frogs after the rain. On arrival we received eggs. Thank you Claude and Ali. We had a nice stay.
Different than suggested and reviewed. Well equipped mountain home, pots, pans, microwave oven, gas oven and stove, good fridge. Felt unsafe in the sense that there wasn't much interaction, yet well received. Eggs and milk have dried up. Terribly poor cellular communication. The silence "noises" there. Take your dog with you. No cleaning services offered or refused. Road over Ruiterbos by far the better one.
Claude and Allie have created a beautiful place for tourists. Blommekloof was our base to tour George, Mossel Bay and Ruiterbosch. Don't miss the beautiful route to Bonniedale. The Old Cottage was neat and spacious with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Would definitely go again. Thanks LekkeSlaap and Blommekloof.
We had a great stay. No disturbances (cellphone, etc).
We thoroughly enjoyed staying there and would do so again and again. For me, the fishing was just what I needed and didn't even know how much I would have enjoyed it, there are a lot of fish in those ponds. Also just want to say thank you to Ally for everything she has done for us.
It was wonderful with beautiful scenery, 18 km cycling route was fantastic.
Real farm life. Thanks to Claud and Ally for the hospitality. Our yorkie kids had just as much fun.
We discovered the beautiful places as one of LekkeSlaap's special offers and will definitely go back. If you don't like nature, silence and total peace, stay away. The nature was amazing, a photography dream and just the right balance between rustic and comfortable. Ideal for a family with little people who love animals and who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
A peaceful farm atmosphere. A neat residential house with all amenities as required. Had a great time!
