88 guests' feedbackLovely at the foot of the beautiful mountains. Friendly reception. Lots to do in the area.
Views were breathtaking! Olive Cottage has everything you need and is wonderfully private. Shane was an excellent host and forwarded all information via WhatsApp in advance. He made sure our stay was going to be wonderful. We will definitely want to go there again.
We (6 adults and 2 young children) had a great time. The children rode bikes and moved around without us having to watch them all the time. Lovely walk on the farm.
Wonderful peaceful place. We had a very nice stay.
We had a great time on the farm. The scenery is beautiful and we especially appreciated the silence there. The place is very neat and well maintained and has everything you need!
Really great stay. Will be back.
Our stay was very relaxing, and we found that the cottage exceeded our expectations. The facilities were far more than mentioned on your website, for example, a hair dryer, coffee, tea, coffee plunger, and battery lights for load shedding outages. Guests should just be aware that the water supply is pressurised and therefore down during load shedding.
Very cute house. Public dirt road very bad, so drive slowly. It's worth it.
Very pleasant stay in a beautiful location.
No, will not visit again. This is not a working farm as advertised. There was no gift like wood, everything had to be paid for extra if you wanted to use it.
Very peaceful wine country accommodation.
We enjoyed having a stream right outside the door of the chalet. Our kids enjoyed playing in it too. The chalet itself was simple and tasteful inside and had everything we needed.
See stars.
It was a very comfortable cottage and well-equipped. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. Beautiful vistas of the mountains. A place to recommend to friends and to return to!
Will definitely visit again.
Fraaigelegen would be highly recommended by us.
With load shedding there is no water pressure.
Friendly service and a clean and peaceful environment.
Only stayed a night but it was really wonderful. Very friendly and genuine people.
Management quite involved and ensure a pleasant stay.
This unit is of high quality with everything one needs. Have fun on the large porch with an incredible view of the mountains. Friendly service and good contact all the time. We will definitely stay here again and then for a few nights.
The accommodation is everything as described and more. Lovely accommodation next to a stream and a great view of the mountains. One can also buy delicious products on the farm. Will definitely use this again.
The most beautiful scenery and really relaxing.
The view is so beautiful, especially after the sun hides its head. Lovely.
Nice farm environment, peaceful to stay.
Calm and quiet. Ideal place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Have a nice stay and enjoy the surroundings.
Definitely a place to recharge one's batteries. No disturbance, not even from the highway as the setting is far away from the busy highway. Lovely sites in the surrounding area to visit.
Road was tough. Kitchen could do with an update. Cleaner.
We were heartily welcomed and the cottage is beautiful, but not practical for pets. All pet-friendly places should allow for a fenced-in garden so that animals can be secure. Control measurements must be integrated. The bridge crossing from the car to the cottage was loose (front right corner). Pierre struggles to walk and has been on disability for the past 15 years and nearly lost his balance. Allowing pets does not = pet-friendly. Cancellations should be dealt with by the booking agent and ensure that in the event that the goods offered meet the requirements of the client. Owners should not be allowed to directly contact the client as they aren't customer service reps, they are merely a host, acting as an intermediary. We called as soon as we secured alternative pet-friendly accommodation and explained why it's not suitable. The agent acknowledged that the owner of the property was merely consistently calling to apologise for the bridge. Due to misleading info and the safety incident that occurred, we should have been reimbursed the full amount.
Beautiful peaceful surroundings - cottage very neat, clean and well equipped - definitely worth a visit again! The owner provides a great and friendly service! 10/10.
Beautiful, peaceful surroundings. The 'cottage' is equipped with everything you need. You don't even miss a TV, because it's too nice to sit outside or walk around the farm. The service was very good. What a great help that we were kept informed of the power outages. If I have to 'complain' about something, it's the road which is very bumpy in places. One has to drive extra carefully because there are holes and in places larger stones.
Had a wonderful time in Tulbagh with the most beautiful view and nice fireplace in the evening.
It was wonderfully peaceful. No city noises or anything like that - just the birds and animals. I will definitely go back again.
We had an incredibly nice weekend on the beautiful Fraaigelegen farm, lovely swimming pool, and a beautiful quiet and peaceful environment. Cabernet cottage has everything one needs to relax for a weekend (or longer!). We were kindly received and had a great time.
We really enjoyed our weekend stay, met the owner and he was so polite and made us feel very welcome. I will be going back to relax again.
The hosts are friendly and caring people, ensuring that all your reasonable needs are met.
Venishree received us warmly and the house between the mountains, vineyards and olive trees was wonderful.
After a long day out it was nice to be back at our place of residence. Road a bit bad for a small car but worth the drive there. Best thing: no mosquitoes.
Everything was neat. My daughter had fun running around on the grass. The only aspect that was not pleasant was with loadshedding is the water off. But the owner informed us about it ahead of time. Furthermore, we had a very nice stay. Will definitely come again.
It was very nice.
Peaceful and off the beaten track.
A place where you can just breathe. Very lovely setting.
Beautiful setting but there are a few things that were not up to standard. No water available during load shedding. The immediate surroundings around the house need some TLC and could improve. The house was very well equipped and we enjoyed the one sleepover very much.
Great night on the farm!
Will definitely stay there again on our next visit.
Beautiful setting. Friendly hosts. Lovely cottage.
Very nice and clean. Very beautiful with the mountains.
Beautiful setting, great customer service with a warm welcome and good bye. Highly recommend this spot and we will for sure be back.
House was clean and neat and kitchen was well equipped.
Try the olive oil, great quality.
The owners made us feel very welcome. Venishree and Juergen received us warmly and made us feel at home. The cottage is located in a beautiful environment. Mountains, vineyards, olive groves with plenty of space to walk and explore. Wonderful birdlife and an absolute treat for the eye and soul. The cottage is basic and equipped as described. All in working and good condition. Delicious linen and mattresses make the night's rest refreshing. Wolsely and Tulbagh are close by with great places to visit if you so choose. We had a great time.
The owners are extremely friendly and helpful and the farm is beautiful. The houses are neat and very well equipped.
Just what we needed for a proper breakaway. So quiet and peaceful, 10 minutes drive to Tulbagh centre. Will definitely return in winter to explore some more. The hospitality from Venishree and Juergen was top class, all information we needed was provided and they were always available when we needed to ask anything, but had all the privacy we needed too. Loved the fact we could have our dog there too! Cottage neat and tidy and had everything you would need. Beautiful walking through the olive trees and vineyards which were ready to harvest too. Could not recommend this place highly enough! Will return soon again.
If you are wanting a quiet and peaceful time away, I would really recommend this place. It's a place one can really unwind from the stresses of life.
Awesome view of the mountains and olive groves, very quiet and peaceful surroundings, good hosts and very clean and comfortable accommodation.
Both doors and the outside braai can do with some repairs.
Really relaxing, catch up with reading, listening to favourite music and just admiring the beautiful views. The ideal place for it.
We were there in January and got very hot, luckily there is air conditioning in the house.
Picturesque surroundings, beautiful farm and lovely hosts! Maybe just a good idea to make people aware that the dirt roads are more suitable for vans and SUVs.
The setting is beautiful, the Olive Cottage was simple yet functionally furnished, everything was there that we needed. Linen and towels were of top top quality. The stream outside the cottage was a big win for our small son and furry Labrador. Walks on the farm were glorious and even a mountain bike ride was possible. Hosts were very friendly and attentive, communication was excellent. I would highly recommend this farm as it’s far enough away from Cape Town to get away from city bustle yet close enough for a weekend getaway!
Beautiful surroundings. Very well equipped cottage. Peaceful and quiet. Friendly and hospitable hosts, Jurgen and Venishree. Communication pre-arrival and during the stay was tops.
The cottage has the basic essentials. Our previous olive/wine farm provided their olive oil for us to sue and a bottle of wine , rusks, a farm bread etc. That just seemed friendlier. The laundry service at Fraaigelegen was fabulous.
Nice place with interesting owners - if silence and openness are your thing, this is the right place.
What a beautiful and tranquil getaway this is. We loved the sounds of the birds and the beautiful sunrise and sunsets. The hosts really gave us a warm welcome and made us feel right at home and they personally delivered the fresh farm eggs we ordered. We stayed in the Shiraz cottage. It was very nice and clean and has everything you would need for the weekend, including utensils for the braai. We would recommend Fraaigelegen to family and friends anytime and would also love to go back there ourselves. Awesome weekend getaway!
Lovely place to stay, very peaceful, we would stay there again anytime!
Our host and hostess were very friendly and helpful. Very good WiFi which is a plus on a farm. Animals and birds around you, our 4-year-old enjoyed it immensely.
We were very warmly received by Venishree and Jurgen. The cottage is tastefully furnished. Would definitely recommend Fraaigelegen and stay there again.
Fraaigelegen really is in a beautiful setting, and very well located - close to Tulbagh, Wolseley and Ceres. The surroundings are beautiful, and the cottage is well equipped with quality bedding, crockery etc. Our host and wife's welcome was warm, and they make sure guests have everything they need. With the greeting, we felt like friends. One rests, relaxes and nourishes one's soul in this beautiful environment.
See stars.
Lovely and quiet. Warm and generous. Pet Friendly - Thank you. Dirt road is good condition but don't expect a clean vehicle.
What can one say? The location is perfect, nothing is too far. The surroundings are beautiful. The owners are hospitable. The cottage was clean and tidy. I would recommend it for anyone. Thank you very much.
Our family had a wonderful time at Fraaigelegen Farm. Breathtaking views, stunning sunsets, tranquil surroundings! Beautiful, clean, well equipped cottage. Enjoyed the quiet and nature without TV! Will definitely be back!
This is a beautiful place. The cottages are well equipped and clean. One sits calmly with a glass of wine in hand and gazes over the pond in front of you. A nice hearth for the winter months and open, quiet nights to sit and watch the starry sky. Our hostess makes sure that everything is in order and makes sure that the fire is burning in the fireplace when you arrive. We were also able to take our 2 Jack Russel puppies with us and they enjoyed the outdoors. The accommodation is centrally located for visiting Tulbagh, Ceres and Wolseley areas.
Beautiful well-equipped luxury cottage with everything you need. Very friendly and helpful owners. Would definitely recommend, so peaceful amongst the vineyards and mountains.
A very nice farm. Friendly service and neat accommodation.
The unit is relatively spacious with good internet reception. It offers peaceful and quiet accommodation and is well located for easy access to a range of surrounding towns (including Ceres golf course). The owner and her manager were extremely friendly and helpful. Would love to stay there again.
We had a wonderful family weekend. 2 Minutes away from Tulbagh and all the wine farms. The cottages have wonderful views and lovely trail runs just on the doorstep.
Lovely comfortable bed, pure white, clean bed linen and towels. Just one small problem: both the upper and lower door on the North side and the built-in wardrobe in the master bedroom are hinged so flat, which makes it difficult to close the doors. Juergen and Vaneshree received us kindly and made us feel welcome. Vaneshree's welcome note was warm and sincere. We really enjoyed the two days. The scenery is beautiful, despite the drought. (The water saving instructions when using the toilet were somewhat ambiguous.)
Amazing hosts, great farm and most amazing views. A place you can relax and unwind.
Fantastic view. Quiet, peaceful and blissful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Take your camping chair with you for sitting on the porch.
We are a family of 4 who were at Graaigelegen for the long weekend. Accommodation is clean and spider free. Good facilities with open lawn for children to ride bikes and run around while the adults sit on the veranda and have a barbecue. Thanks for a great experience!
We enjoyed our stay a lot. The guesthouse has everything that you need and the most beautiful views. The hostess Verishnee went out of her way to make us as comfortable as possible and was very helpful when we needed help. Thank you for the unbelievable memories.
Location is very nice and the self-catering unit contains everything you need. The fact that there is no TV is definitely a plus! Would love to go again but a bit expensive for retirees. Owners made us feel very welcome.
Owners friendly received us. House had everything we need. The only sound you hear is the doves and all you see is the mountains around you. You have to drive slowly on the gravel road to get there. Ideal getaway from the city.
Excellent value for money in a peaceful environment. Will definitely return.
We stayed in Shiraz. Lovely large, modern shower. We enjoyed every sunset with a glass of bubbly on the large patio with the fir crackling next to us. The fresh mountain air and tranquility was wonderful and we were able to recharge completely.
