Fynbosrust was a festival. If you want total silence, but with comfort, this is the place for you. The cottage is tastefully laid out, with beautiful carpets. The kitchen and other facilities are comprehensive. There is a comfortable outdoor barbecue on a veranda with a mountain view like few. Inside, the fireplace is also nice. Carin is an excellent hostess: she often followed up with us, made suggestions. In addition, she was also very helpful after the stay: we forgot a bag of toys there and she made an enormous effort to get that bag back to us (in the midst of bad weather). There are beautiful hiking trails and we would love to come back again to enjoy them - and the cottage. Highly recommend.
Absolute "gem" of a place. There is everything you need and more. The team's attention to detail is remarkable. Her communication from start to finish is flawless. Would really recommend to anyone looking to get away from the busy city.
Most beautiful decor! Located in such a beautiful area! Perfect getaway from the Cape, not too far to drive and so secluded, you can't help but switch off!
Carin is very helpful and goes out of her way to make you feel at home. Would recommend it to everyone.
Wonderful getaway in the mountains!
Words can not describe how special and beautiful this place is, from the beautiful surrounding mountain scenery to stepping onto the deck and taking in the fresh air and beauty. The house is well thought out with fresh flowers on the table, table settings laid out already, warm blankets and a fantastic big fireplace with enough wood for those cold evenings. We spent 6 nights and we are well rested. From reading on the deck while sitting in the sun to migrating to the fireplace as evening sets in. Enjoy the views of the birds at the bird bath and don't forget the two mongoose that come to visit. Binoculars and bird books are a must! There are some nice hikes so don't forget comfortable shoes for that. The tranquillity and soulfulness are world class. Thank you Carin, we will be back soon.
Had a great time in this lovely house with a fantastic view. Very neat and stylish. Wonderful living area, beautiful bedrooms and a comfortable wooden deck with plenty of firewood. Exceptional customer service!
Fynbosrust is lovely, it's tidy and has everything you need. The silence and beautiful view is really wonderful. Thanks, Carin!
We had a wonderful stay - the house is perfectly furnished with everything you need. View over the valley is beautiful. Nature sounds are refreshing after the city noise. Nice that you are isolated, because our dogs could walk around without bothering others. The area also has nice places to visit such as Monk's Gin for nice gin tasting.
Very tidy and well equipped with modern facilities including a Nespresso machine. Beautiful setting with mouse dogs, badgers and birds visible from the front porch. Pet-friendly restaurants close to accommodation (Calabash and the Orchard). Baboons were a bit troublesome especially because we Schnauzers wanted to play with them but that is just part of nature where we share their habitat.
Thank you Carin for your incredible place of heaven that I could experience for 2 days. You have literally thought of everything and more. I didn't know about the world out there or power problems. I will definitely come back again! Thank you thank you
Everything was just perfect. The house is well stocked with everything you need, the remoteness of the house and glorious views and the indoor and outdoor fireplace added to our amazing experience.
Great place to get away. House is equipped with everything you can think of that you will need. Even coffee, tea, 500ml milk and salt and pepper and other spices. Enough wood to make a fireplace for the whole winter. I want to go again.
What a beautiful place. Can't get enough of the beautiful mountains. Would still like to give it more than 5 stars. Nice clean and comfortable, everything one needs. Great with the solar power, loadshedding didn't bother me at all.
We could relax wonderfully and just sit and look out over the most beautiful fynbos and mountains. Well equipped home with pampering such as a dishwasher, warm blankets and a lovely fireplace.
The Eskom situation didn't help, but great place to spend time.
We all loved the peace and quiet, the walks and stillness. Sheba loved the early morning walks and watching the views from the deck. It's the perfect place for recharging. We'll definitely be back!
We will definitely go back to Fynbosrust again. This is the perfect place to recharge your battery. We would also recommend it any day. There are nice hiking trails to a waterfall and in the mountain. It is very safe and quiet. There is no traffic to disturb your getaway. We will see you again soon.
Fynbosrust is an incredible hidden gem! Perfect for a break in the countryside to renew the soul. Very private and only nature's silence can be heard. The house has all the amenities one might need and Carin was very helpful with all the questions and requests we had. We hope to visit again soon for more than just a weekend - it was an absolute pleasure to be there!
Our experience was very good, can definitely recommend it.
Me, my wife, and 10 month old son had an amazing time at Fynbosrust. The house is very neat and has everything you need. The location is beautiful and it was a great time to just enjoy "forest TV". P.S. Carin is amazing!
Beautiful place to stay with everything your heart desires!
Carin made us feel at home and we were able to relax very well. The facilities are fantastic and there is everything you need. We will definitely go back!
The house was beautiful and the surroundings even more beautiful. Will definitely go again.
Exceeded expectations and will definitely visit again.
The house has everything one needs to enjoy the time with loved ones/friends. The nature around you is a highlight.
The house, location and how comfortably it is equipped let everyone relax and enjoy nature. Nice family evenings and togetherness like in the old days. We will visit often.
Everything you need at home.
It was really worth it to spend our 8 year wedding anniversary at Fynbosrust. Will definitely book again but this time for more days. Thank you very much Carin, we enjoyed it there, the place is very beautiful.
It is one of the best places to relax and appreciate the Cape nature. It's a place where you can get away from the hustle and bustle and recharge. Perfect for you and your better half or family of 3 or 4 people.
We felt so relaxed and rejuvenated being immersed in the mountains with nothing but the sounds of birds. The house was immaculately clean and you can tell the owners put a lof of love and attention into the details. The insulation is really good so we stayed super warm even though it was going into winter. The bed is extremely comfortable. We had no problems with running out of electricity even with a cloudy/rainy weekend. I would come back every weekend if I could.
We can recommend Fynbosrus to anyone looking for a peaceful destination in nature. The house is simple but very practically designed, with beautiful furniture and top finishes. The place is dead quiet at night, and withthe exceptionally comfortable bed, we both had the best night's rest in recent memory. The location is perfect; beautiful walks in fynbos, waterfalls and mountains, and only 90 minutes from Cape Town. Our 2 nights there made us feel like we had been on holiday for a week. Will definitely be going back.
The 2km road to the cottage is bad gravel. Not suitable for anything other than a bakkie/ SUV.
