50 guests' feedbackWonderful. Beautiful spot and host/caretaker was so helpful.
It is a beautiful place in the Cederberge. Very peaceful and so many hiking trails to do.
Very nice stay. The accommodation at Cedarpeak Mountain Cottages is very peaceful with lots of hiking trails and nice pools to swim in. Good for the soul.
Spectacular walks in all directions, with clear streams, natural pools, unique rock formations and even a bit of rock art. Our cottage was very comfortable, with excellent WiFi, an indoor fireplace (already laid) and outdoor braai area, comfy arm chairs and a fully equipped small kitchen (with Smeg appliances). Renshaw was readily available if anything was needed and welcoming. Highly recommended. We will be back as soon as possible and will recommend Cedar Peaks to friends and family.
Wonderful place to recharge from the craziness of the world. Very grateful that there is continual effort to keep alien vegetation at bay which means protecting this magical place for future generations. Thank you!
What an incredible place to relax and unwind. The many hikes, rockpools and biking options are incredible and endless. We loved our 2nd visit to Cedarpeak. Looking forward to another visit soon.
A paradise for hikers and nature lovers. Tastefully decorated accommodation and such a peaceful breakaway. Renshaw is the perfect host as well.
Comfortable accommodation with wonderful views of the valley to far-off Citrusdal from its wide veranda and a large social kitchen make Cedarpeak Mountain Cottages the perfect destination for a group of friends to spend a few days!
Pristine and beautiful. We will definitely come again.
Very comfortable. Only complaint was the kitchen - unsafe gas burner. Microwave impossible to work, even with help from Google.
Very nice. Quiet and peaceful. You just have to take what you need with you. Town is a bit far away, so plan carefully. Friendly host. Walking routes are beautiful but can be a bit confusing in places.
Good hiking spot for short and long walks.
We had a wonderful time in this peaceful slice of paradise. Renshaw, who runs the space, is a lovely person who took the time to recommend great trails and is awesome to talk to. Will return.
Amazing location and a very friendly host. We were already out of breath on Dasklip Pass on the way to Cedarpeak and it only gets more beautiful the further you go! Great hiking trails, each one unique! We enjoyed it so much and would love to go back again! Take only enough food, one is not near any shops.
Thanks, this was really a great destination. I personally liked the hiking trails to blow of steam and bring me back to myself.
Best quiet place for getaway.
Lovely accommodation, friendly staff and so much to do! Plus, just to kick back and relax.
It was an absolute fabulous stay. We enjoyed the lovely hikes in the area. The accommodation was cosy and warm despite the freezing temperatures. Can definitely recommend and will be back in summer to test some of those rockpools.
The location was very good. Beautiful surroundings.
Spectacular views abound, lovely hikes, although not all of them are properly marked and the cottage has a great mix of rustic and luxury. Would love to come back.
The house (Blomhof) was neat and clean. It is very well furnished with a very nice fireplace and warm blankets on the beds. Plenty of wood to heat the house and grill. The surroundings are beautiful and we had a nice walk.
A strange mixture of class/expense. Smeg fridge vs no shelf/working space for food prep/washing up/storage of food. Quaint side tables next to beds but with uneven surfaces. No ventilation in toilet. I prefer a built-in braai.
We were seven retired friends staying in the Blomhof residence for three nights midweek. The weather was changeable allowing for fine walks along the well-marked trails and cosy time by the indoor fireplace. Free dry firewood and free WiFi added to our well-being. Lolling on the wide veranda we enjoyed the view all the way down the valley and some buck that came to graze on the front lawn.
Als was wonderful, place was everything you need and more. Als was perfect.
What a wonderful rest. Beautiful hiking trails (also nice for our 5 year old). And fantastic attention to detail that makes Rooibos Cottage very comfortable to stay in!
One of the most beautiful places we have visited.
Renshaw was a truly wonderful host. Our accommodation (as a couple) was perfectly adequate in Vleibosch - cosy fire over two days of (sometimes heavy) rain. I would certainly return, but to a slightly bigger cottage with our sons. Also would like to try Cedarpeak in the slightly warmer months. Either way, we will certainly make multiple returns.
Great breakaway for a weekend.
Lovely and stylish cottage. As there were only 3 of us in the end it was quite pricey. Might have been a nice touch to have some fresh fynbos flowers and also complimentary eggs on arrival. Also, there were no matches, but the hot water was divine, the bed very comfortable, everything worked, lovely walks - would have loved to stay longer.
This is a very nice and peaceful place to pack up for a weekend, within 2 hours' drive of the Cape. I was received very kindly. The hiking trails in places to go for views were pointed out to me. I hiked a few of the trails and the scenery is just breathtaking. House (Kleinbosch) itself was very neat and the porch was lovely to sit on. Lying on the sofa every afternoon and reading books. The road there can be a little difficult with a flat car, but is quite doable.
We had a nice walk and rested here. Stylish cottage and amenities. Friendly service.
Beautifully equipped cottage, and amazingly beautiful surroundings. We enjoyed walking, also swimming in the dam. It was a bit hot for any exercise for much of the day. We found the approach on the mountain pass, I think Dasklip rather formidable.
The caretaker was very helpful, friendly and helpful. The hiking trails are picturesque and the place is quiet and peaceful. Perfect place for a getaway if you want to escape from the busy life. I would recommend and they will definitely see us again.
The accommodation was clean and well appointed. Very comfortable and spacious for 7 guests. Great hiking trails on the farm with plenty of mountain streams to cool off in. Highly recommended.
Become one with nature again. Very comfortable unit. Silence. Beautiful scenery. Friendly welcome.
We had a wonderful stay in the Rooibos Cottage at Cedarpeak. We had a mix of warm and cold weather, so on the warm days we swam in beautiful rock pools and on the colder days we lit a fire in the modern fireplace. Our two small children loved the nature walks. Can highly recommend a stay here. We hope to be back soon. A special shout out to Renshaw who made us feel so welcome and went out of his way to help us feel comfortable.
Lovely spacious unit. Coal that kept the place nice and warm. I had a great time the 5 days we were there and will definitely return again.
Cedar Peak became a special place close to our hearts after I got engaged to my partner over the weekend. I wish I could add an extra star to every topic, especially location. The farm really is a piece of heaven on earth. Many thanks to the website, Cedar Peak and many thanks Renshaw, you have made the weekend experience one to remember. It's like you said: This is a special place. You don't choose the farm, the farm chooses you.
Beautiful location. Simple, clean and comfortable cottage. Caretaker was very helpful and brought us eggs and lemons. It was very hot and a fan would have been good in the room. I would have liked some longer walks than the few short walks around the farm. If guests have done longer walks in wilderness areas and recorded them using GPS.
Living area is a bit cramped, but not unbearable, nice bath with a view!
The attention to detail was great, the cottage was fully equipped and we had everything we needed. The farm manager is extremely friendly and helpful. The surroundings are breathtaking. The perfect destination to relax, restore and have a little bit of adventure.
The surroundings are beautiful and the cottages are also very well laid out. Unfortunately everything was spoiled with the cutlery being very dirty, each item had to be washed before we could use it. Renshaw was very helpful and went out of his way to help us.
We loved our 3-night stay this past weekend and will definitely be back – this time with some friends as we’d love to share this special mountain space with them! Our unit, Vleibosch Cottage, situated close to the farm dam, was comfy and equipped with everything we needed, except a hairdryer, which I knew about because I'd checked with the venue before leaving home and had brought my own; on arrival, however, we were pleasantly surprised when the farm manager greeted us with not only a hairdryer, but a few freshly laid eggs and a punnet of blueberries! The open-plan lounge/bedroom leading out onto the patio has views over the dam and the mountains behind it. There is a stream with rock pools at the far side of the dam, which we enjoyed exploring. The farm’s chickens paid us a daily visit. Cellphone signal from the cottage is excellent but Vleibosch Cottage does not have Wi-Fi (although Wi-Fi is available in the larger cottages). Vleibosch Cottage provided the perfect off-the-beaten-track base to simply sit and read, and explore the enormous property with its mountains, streams and rock pools, and incredible rock formations. A 3 to 5 minute walk from the cottage took us to the start of numerous mountain trails of varying lengths. This area is pristine – very natural and untouched – and as such, because so few people walk the mountains here, some of the longer trails have become somewhat overgrown. Two hours into our walk we couldn’t find the next set of trail cairns, took a wrong turn and landed up lost. What should have been a 4 hour walk turned into a 7,5 hour trek through kilometres of thick fynbos and over numerous fallen rocks. Fortunately, as we headed back in the general direction of home, we gained cell reception and were able to send a WhatsApp message and location pin to the farm manager. We were also fortunate to find a jeep track lower down the mountain, which the farm manager knew well as well as where it would lead to. Following the track, we eventually landed up at Beaverlac! The farm manager was already waiting there to pick us up. What an adventure! We were unprepared for the extra-long walk and got very sunburnt, but at least there were some small streams along the way and we were able to hydrate. Our advice when doing the trails here is: walk prepared. Take a hat, sunscreen, water, and a fully charged cellphone with the manager’s number on your phone. Cedar Peak Mountain Cottages is a gem of a place that will appeal to nature lovers and hikers – and those looking to get away from it all. We can't wait to go back! PS: A special thank you to Renshaw, the farm manager, for being a great host and for helping us out of our pickle!
I would definitely recommend this destination for people who want to get out of the city. The hiking trails and waterfalls are beautiful and not too difficult. Renshaw was an excellent host who even brought us fresh eggs in the morning. The house is beautiful and neat and well equipped.
Had a wonderful stay. Restful. Most beautiful cottage. Lots of flies in the middle of the day, otherwise perfect!
Had a lovely time in the most magical space. Renshaw welcomed us with open arms and told us everything we needed to know.
We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility and nature.
See stars.
The road to Cedarpeak is not for sissies. The dirt road has probably not been scraped for years, so it's not easy. There's a bit of tar in the middle that lets you breathe, but give yourself extra time on the way there if you want to take it slow and save your shock absorbers. But once you're up on the mountain at Cedarpeak, everything is just perfect. The views, tranquility, walking trails, wonderful farm dam with a piece of "beach". We stayed 3 nights but could easily have stayed a week! We stayed in Kleinbos, and of course the bath with a view was the big attraction for me. It did not disappoint! Bed was comfortable with good linen. The kitchen area is a bit neat, and a drying rack would help a bit. Enough plates and glasses etc., but a nice sharp knife was also wanted. Little things that would make the stay even better. The cottage has a lovely little fireplace, warm blanket on the bed and electric heater for winter, but no fan for warmer summer days - I'm glad we drove together. The farm manager was very helpful and helped explain walking routes and told a bit about the area. Can't wait to go again!
Highly recommended if you'd like to get away and rest. Accommodation is very neat and well equipped.
