69 guests' feedbackWonderful and peaceful place. Unit was clean. Melanie takes care of her guests. My family enjoyed the walks and seeing the game roaming around.
It was really a pleasure to meet the owner and her son, very friendly and nice to talk to. Very helpful when we needed things from the store. We really enjoyed the silence and beautiful nature, with the many species of birds and the wildlife, especially in the mornings the walk was incredible. Would definitely recommend their place.
Lovely place. Small space but nicely appointed. Lovely outside area with a very nice braai pit. . Very close location to Dinokeng.
It was an absolute privilege to be able to stay there. It was so neat and clean. Just felt like a 5-star stay. I would be happy to recommend this place to anyone, even if it's just to get away from the noise of the city. Will definitely see you again.
We were received very kindly, and enjoyed every moment of the forest, it really is a place to just rest.
Have fun. Very nice neat place. Just what we needed after all the hustle and bustle in the city. Will definitely come again. Thank you for the hospitality.
It is wonderfully quiet and peaceful. The accommodation is very comfortable. Very nice clean and tidy. Melanie is friendly and helpful. She helps quickly if you have any questions or need help.
It was beautifully clean. I felt extremely welcomed. The trouble taken to even rake the grounds around the cottage was 5 star.
Amazing stay at Delmarei Privaat Boskamp. Great for 2 couples or a family. Easy road access.
We had a warm and friendly welcome by the host. She was very helpful with information on the area. The unit was clean and tidy, and we had a wonderful stay!
Very nice stay. So peaceful, worth it for sure!
I had a wonderful stay. It was exactly the peace of mind I needed after a difficult 6-month period.
Absolutely, would come back anytime.
It was really nice, just to get out of the city's hustle and bustle. Everything is so peaceful and the sounds of the foxes in the evening are just amazing. The host was also so hospitable and helped immediately if we needed anything.
Peaceful, restful and comfortable surrounded by bushveld.
Very nice stay will visit there again.
Very peaceful stay.
We used the accommodation at Haak-en-Steek. It is a cozy and comfortable accommodation to break away from the city. There are no city noises or city lights - only the natural environment, tranquility, and fresh air. There are roebucks, blue wildebeests, and blesboks roaming around and can be easily viewed by taking a short walk. It is 2 km from the nearest gate of the Dinokeng Reserve. The accommodation has solar panels and a gas geyser which had lovely hot water. Communication was excellent. Guests are provided with the necessary information about activities in the area, as well as the nearest grocery stores and restaurants. She received us personally on arrival and made us feel very welcome.
We had a wonderful stay, thank you Melanie.
We had a wonderful stay! The houses are clean, tidy and well equipped with everything you need. We had a nice walk and a nice rest. The peaceful woodland silence is a treat for the soul!
What an incredibly delicious 2nd visit at Delmarei Private Forest Camp. The Kameeldoring wooden house is beautifully neat and spotless. The luxurious linen and good night's rest are a great treat. We were able to completely relax and appreciate every moment of the scenery and fresh air. A perfect hostess made us feel like honored guests once again. Her incredible passion for what she does and love for Delmarei is so special. We look forward to visiting again soon.
Very friendly welcome. Everything that is needed. Nice and quiet and safe.
Very nice stay, thank you and thank you for all the effort, Melanie!
It was without a doubt one of the most peaceful and beautiful places we have ever stayed. The service was fantastic and the lady was so friendly and helpful. The place to stay was spotless and so beautiful. It's simple and yet still elegant with everything we needed to be able to stay there for the week.
Our stay was super peaceful in the heart of nature. The host was the perfect host, going the extra mile to ensure we were cool and comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble. The cottage is well equipped, spacious and tranquil.
Have a great time and relax.
It was absolutely brilliant.
Access to Delmarei is easily accessible from Molotto Road and directly from the main dirt road. The hospitality of the hostess was excellent, very helpful and went out of her way to ensure our well deserved rest. Can enjoy walking and cycling around. Thought the solar power could be a challenge, but not at all and works effectively. Everything from outside to inside was neat and clean with the most necessary of everything. Is provided with information of nearest shops and places with distances.
Wonderful stay in the beautiful and neat unit!
Tranquility was our requirement. Was still very dry because it is the end of winter.
Accommodation was beautiful, tidy, safe and quiet. Everything one needs for a few days away. That's how a forest getaway should be. Rooibos, Baldbucks and Blue Wildebeest literally on your porch in the late afternoon. Have a nice stay, visit and relax. Thank you.
Very nice stay. Everything clean and tidy. Hospitably received. Will stay there again. Chalet has everything needed. Restful.
It was a wonderful and peaceful two days at Delmarei Private Forest Camp. Exactly the rest we needed! Melanie put so much effort into the reception and also when it rained at the cottage (due to windows we left open), she quickly jumped to plan with new bedding.
We didn't spend much time in the house because there was a lot of things to do around in the area. The host was so accommodating and went far beyond to assist us. The beds were really comfortable.
Chalet was spotless and had everything one needed for a relaxing weekend. The host is a great hostess and goes out of her way to make you feel welcome and attends to all your needs.
Amazing place. Clean, tidy and well equipped. The house is private and the environment is peaceful. Perfect place to escape from the city. Melanie is awesome. Thank you Melanie for your hospitality. Definitely see you again.
Very quiet, clean and tidy. Not too far from the entrance of Dinokeng. Friendly and helpful hostess. Thank you very much, Melanie.
Peace of mind! So relaxing and will definitely return!
We had a great time at this little gem in the woods. Melanie welcomed us kindly and helped us if we needed anything. Saw various game and birds and heard the foxes and even a hyena at night. There is no power, but the solar system provides light, water etc. The only thing that might bother you is if the batteries start recharging early in the morning, the fan comes on which can be a bit disturbing if you want to go to sleep. Other than that it was fantastic. Thank you very much!
The host is amazing, she really made us feel welcome. The atmosphere is relaxed and the accommodation was clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. I would go back when possible. Thank you.
The place is well equipped with everything you need. Upon arrival, the hostess welcomed us kindly.
The place is very well equipped and a proof of concept that you can do a lot with solar and gas. Great!
We had a really nice stay. House is well furnished and very neat and clean. Very friendly reception. Exactly what we needed. Next time we stay longer!
We were warmly welcomed and the place was super clean and tidy. We would definitely like to book there again as the weekend is too short and it is also close to home.
Wonderfully peaceful and quiet!
Was welcomed at the gate by Melanie upon our arrival. The cottage is tasteful and comfortable. Saw the different goats grazing in our backyard every afternoon. Looking forward to seeing what they do with the other units. Hiking trails were pleasant and we also saw a lot of wildlife.
The accommodation was very neat and everything you need was available. Melanie lets you know in advance what to bring, such as braai wood and ice. You can go for a lovely walk in nature and there are many things to do in the area. We will definitely return again.
Thank you very much, Melanie, for your kindness and hospitality. This is a gem of a place in the middle of the woods. Private, beautifully neat and well equipped. (The shower's pressure is AMAZING!) Going for walks in the morning and late afternoon and seeing the various goats and blue wildebeest was a highlight. A wonderful experience from start to finish.
At Delmarei there are no external activities to do. The cottage is very comfortable for two people with the basic accessories for a self-catering unit. The place can be recommended for a few days of rest from the busy city life. The shops and other places in the greater Dinokeng area are 8 kilometers and further, so you need to bring everything with you to be able to relax for a few days. The hospitality was good and very friendly.
No load shedding with the solar panels and inverter. Gas geyser and gas stove.
All you need to relax and visit the nearby Dinokeng reserve. Fully equipped kitchen for 2 persons. Just waiting for the dam to be filled with sufficient water, which will attract more bird life and animals.
Thank you for a wonderful stay Melanie. What a beautiful, neat gem of a place. We will definitely be back.
Had a great time, just half an hour outside Pretoria, but it felt like we were deep in the bush. Could hear lions roaring at night, as well as the call of hyenas. Dinokeng is only about 15 minutes' drive from Delmarei. There is a nice walking path on the farm. Melanie is definitely a hostess and does her best to ensure your comfort. The cottage is very nice and clean, with good quality bedding and cutlery. We will definitely recommend the place to everyone.
Very clean, tidy and well equipped house, with everything you would need! The nature is beautiful, saw goats and blue wildebeest and many birds. Footpaths are a must. Would highly recommend them and would definitely go there again.
Both the cottage and the farm are absolutely stunning, and we had a wonderful time. The cottage is beautifully decorated, well-equipped, and very clean and well-maintained. The walking and cycling routes are lovely. A special thank you to Melanie for being so welcoming and accommodating, she was the perfect hostess. We will definitely be back!
See it was a lovely week of getting away and getting lost. Peaceful and quiet away from the hustle and bustle and yet everything you need quite close. Melanie and her husband made an effort to make us welcome without experiencing it as an effort.
Had a wonderful rest, just the right place to switch off and become one with nature. Frog singing in the evening was something special.
The hostess was extremely accommodating and friendly. She assisted us with all our requests with a smile. The chalet was private and so well equipped. The environment is very calm and relaxed. Absolutely loved staying at Delmarei. Definitely feel refreshed after our weekend away.
What an incredibly delicious treat at Delmarei Private Forest Camp. The house is beautifully neat and spotless. The luxurious linen and towels are a great treat. We had a wonderful time relaxing and appreciating every moment of the natural beauty and starry. Melanie is a perfect hostess and made us feel like honored guests. She has an incredible passion for what she does. We look forward to visiting again soon.
We had an unforgettable weekend break. Received excellent service and friendliness from Melanie. A little gem of a place in the bushveld.
Quality customer service. Comfortable and well equipped rooms. Clean and tidy environment, but worthy of the time out on the busy town life.
Words cannot describe how wonderful our holiday was here. The house has everything you need, it's beautiful, neat and very peaceful. Melanie was very friendly and hospitable. We will definitely come and holiday here again.
Thanks to Melanie for her kindness and hospitality. The unit is fully equipped with the necessary. Photos do not justify the place. It is picturesque and the tranquility is amazing. Would definitely recommend it 200 times over. They will definitely see us again in the future.
It was a very peaceful environment to stay in and the cottage was perfect.
Beautiful chalet with 2 bedrooms. So clean and nice and nice to stay here for a few days. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful and quiet. Definitely a recommendation if you want to get away from city life. The surrounding farm on which the property is located is also beautiful and we even went for a walk around and saw blue wildebeest, zebras and a large range of goats. Truly a beautiful farm and area. Highly recommended. Notes: The owners have a small "off-grid" battery and solar panel system that can power the lights, power plugs and a small refrigerator. The battery's capacity is not large, so the battery can go flat quickly, especially if it's cloudy. There are quite a few downlighters installed in the unit, thus using a lot of battery energy. Keep this in mind for evenings. I would suggest that you bring a "power bank" with a solar panel for yourself just to help the unit's system. There is wifi signal available, but remember you are in the woods, so the signal is weak. I suggest you turn off the "devices" for your visit here and enjoy the 1000s of birds around you and the peace and quiet of the Dinokeng reserve. They even have a "shed" on site, where you can purchase extra wood for a very affordable fee, and it's very comfortable. There are shops within a 12 km radius of the camp, so if you have forgotten something you may be able to find a lot of it at the "local" OK Bazaars supermarket. So there is no reason not to book right now and visit Delmarei Private Forest Camp. The people are super helpful and friendly. I highly recommend Delmarei to any small families and/or groups of friends for a welcome break from city life.
Was very private and quiet in nature with lots of birds.
I had a lovely break at Delmarei. Melanie was available and responded promptly to any requests. She is a very good hostess. The farm is very beautiful and it's nice to take a walk in the forest among the wildlife. The distance from Dinokeng Reserve is very close and made it easy to do day trips there.
What a pleasant place to just break away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Lovely quiet atmosphere, in nature, with the wild animals around you. Also conveniently close to Dinokeng nature reserve. I rested wonderfully. Would recommend anytime.
It was absolutely incredible. The little house was perfect for a couple getaway. Could not have been happier. The bed was comfortable and clean. The shower was spacious and had plenty of hot and cold water. The kitchen was well equipped (if you don't mind not having a microwave). The little stove top was sufficient. Sitting outside on the stoep, eating every meal was amazing. Listening to all the different bird calls and game come past. You never had to worry about the electricity being off, as there is solar power. Meaning, the fridge was always cold and the light was always on.
