"It is definitely worth the money and effort. Would recommend to anyone."

We had a very nice stay.

"Great, excellent, value for money."

Great! Everything was perfect. We have no complaints and would definitely go again. Owners were friendly and helpful, the place was clean and tidy. Many thanks to Meerhof!

"Stunning and peaceful."

It was a beautiful stay. Such a peaceful place with the most stunning views. The only thing that I would change about the place is the bathroom - a little bit more privacy would be wonderful. Other than that, the place is stunning, the food we had at the restaurant was delicious and value for money, and the wines are delicious. Thank you, we will be back.

"We will be back."

Had a nice stay for sure.

"Perfect glamping experience close to Cape Town."

Fantastic stay, host was wonderful. Will definitely come back.

"Fantastic."

It was stunning, definitely a winner. My 2 year anniversary was top notch.

"Quiet, private, secure."

It was a lovely break. Excellent value and enough wood for 2 cold winter evenings. Special preparations were exactly what we arranged.

"Beautiful and peaceful surroundings."

We really enjoyed our two nights at Meerhof Luxury Glamping. Everything was there that one needed for the two nights and the silence and beautiful views were exactly what we needed.

"Quiet, peaceful."

Meerhof exceeded our expectations. Quiet, beautiful and nice view.

"Heaven on a piece of farm."

The best place ever. Definitely this is my most favorite place. So much tranquility.

"Great place to go and just relax and forget about the world."

Stay was great, even though it rained the whole time we still enjoyed it.

"One for the books!"

We had a great time! The stay was absolutely great! We just made our next reservation and look forward to our next visit.

"Soul food."

We had a very nice stay. It's peaceful and breathtakingly beautiful. Could see up to Table Mountain on the horizon. Let our dog (10 month old Pomeranian) loose and he thoroughly enjoyed himself! His nose pressed into every bush and was on a proper journey of discovery. Everything you need is there. Beautiful clean towels. The bed slept great. Really can't find any negative point. Overall. AWESOME. If you are looking for silence, this is the place to visit!

"Awesome views and value for money."

We really enjoyed our stay. It is spacious and private, with awesome views. The host was very friendly and helpful, and they went out of their way to repair damage in time from strong winds the week before our stay.

"Fantastic."

My husband and I really enjoyed it! The view is something special. At first I was a little stressed out about the baboons walking around there, but when they were no longer there on our last day, we actually just missed them.

"Beautiful stay."

Awesome spot for a weekend away from the hustle and bustle.

"The weekend was relaxing and totally amazing."

The place looked very secluded, but once we booked in, being hidden away was one of the best parts of our stay amongst other things. The quietness allowed us to connect and just appreciate Mother Nature. The views are breathtaking. My husband and I would recommend this to any married couple who want to find themselves again and light that flame all over again. It really was an amazing weekend. Thank you, Mia, it was awesome.

"Relaxing and cosy."

Breathtakingly beautiful views. Loved the sounds of the different birds chirping in the morning. The indoor fireplace was lovely for the chilly winter days.

"Perfect escape from daily rush."

Perfect location and perfect accommodation for glamping. Convenient and comfortable space where one can just relax and escape from the daily rush.

"Tranquility, nice view."

Very nice view and surroundings. The place is well rented and equipped, even with our 1 year old boy and dog.

"Amazing place to stay."

Very nice and peaceful place to stay. Perfect to get away from the busy life. Availability of a nice restaurant with wine tasting within walking distance of the cottage.

"Definitely not a place to go to in the winter."

It wasn't so nice because of the weather; it was raining. But would love to go in the summer.

"Good value for money."

Nice stay. I would have liked if the toilet could have been more private. The bed at the back still needs a support so that the pillows don't fall through and you can sit against the back. Please sit a few nails on the walls in the room and bathroom so you can hang your clothes. Or else hangers. Everything else one needs. Bed linen, towels, shower gel, cream, hand soap, etc. Very cute.

"Beautiful nature clean."

Lack of supervision with cleaning of unit. Entire unit needs a decent clean. Out of gas with shower and hot plate. Grill was very dirty, had to wash it first. Tent side sails don't seal properly, mice run in and out. The unit is actually a gem.

"It was really relaxing. The view was fantastic as well."

See stars.

"Great if you like silence."

We had a great time at Meerhof even though it rained a lot.

"Koringland wine farm outdoor visit."

Good location, up to Table Mountain view. Swartland wine route offers many 'chameleons'. Meerhof good wine and the pies at the restaurant are very tasty. Inside, fireplace on a cold evening is a big plus.

"Needed such a stay just to "recharge"."

Safe, peaceful accommodation. Could sit back and enjoy the beautiful nature and silence. Had a little trouble with the hot bath, otherwise it was very nice and relaxing. Will go again.

"Tranquility itself with a view!"

The most beautiful view! Very comfortable, there is everything you need. The hot tub works great! Can't wait to go again.

"Quiet getaway in nature with a beautiful view!"

We had a great stay and will recommend it to friends.

"Would definitely recommend staying at Meerhof."

We truly enjoyed our stay and the staff friendliness of Mia and Gerrie was great. The views were stunning, peaceful and quiet. The only complaint/comment would be that there was no hammock as per pictures and we only got 15 pieces of wood on arrival, not fully stocked as advertised, but Gerrie did bring us loads more which we paid additionally for.

"Great stay in country close enough to the city to not take too long getting there."

Lovely stay, may need some areas of maintenance upkeep but lovely stay nonetheless in a beautiful valley with awesome views.

"Nice rustic luxury."

Our stay was nice and the views are amazing. The only shortcoming was the noisy roof tent when the wind blows. This kept us awake at night but luckily the wind stopped after a while. Not sure how this will be in summer when the wind blows for longer periods. Other than that, it was a nice rustic glamping experience.

"Beautiful and peaceful."

We loved our stay surrounded by beautiful views. It was tranquil and peaceful - with a lovely fireplace to keep us warm. It is comfortable. Noisy at night when the canvas top blows in the wind, though.

"Nice, quiet, beautiful views!"

We had a great stay, the team is pleasant and helpful. The bedding and towels were of good quality and we slept very well. We had a nice rest in front of a big fire all weekend long! I would like to suggest that the utensils in the kitchen be replaced, because the ones that are there have already been used. The kitchen was not properly cleaned, the trash can and white crates where things are stored were dirty. The hot tub for me is always the highlight of why I choose a place, but this was a disappointment for me this time - it did rain a lot, but that wasn't the problem. From the time we got there 4 o'clock it stopped raining until about 10 o'clock at night, and our fire was big for over 4 hours, but the water wasn't even lukewarm right through, just the top layer. In my opinion, the tub may be too big for the size of the oven, or it's because it's a steel tub. We've used the hot tubs a few times in the winter and rain, and it didn't take nearly as long as that one. If the bath just takes a long time, they should inform people to keep 6+ hours in mind so that when you check in later you know that you are not wasting all the wood for the first night. We didn't try again on Saturday, so didn't use the hot tub at all on the weekend. Other than that it was good, the most beautiful views ever!

"A real getaway and switch off place."

Meerhof "glamping" has an incredible amount of potential. The accommodation was safe and private. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets and saw sparkling stars. The early morning coffee on the porch with baboons chatting in the gullies and tiny birds flying around was welcome entertainment. The kol-kol worked well and it was refreshing to be able to relax in it. There were also nice big new towels available. There were a lot of insects, but unfortunately not enough insecticide. The bedding was unfortunately not freshly made and quite on the used side. A fresh, clean fitted sheet with top sheet and mattress protector should be standard linen. As far back as Oct 21 there has already been mention of the shower having only 2 settings, namely blazing hot or ice cold. The situation is still exactly the same. With a little more emphasis on finer detail, Meerhof will certainly be able to bring an unsurpassed experience.

"Lovely but could do with an upgrade."

Beautiful location but we had some issues with finer details. Final touches are important and these were missing. The front door lock was not working, no handles on some drawers, window handles were broken or even missing, no instructions on how to work anything, e.g. Kolkol or how temperamental the shower was, bedside lamp on one side of the bed but not the other, not great light, containers holding cleaning equipment very dirty, very hard pillows, no brochure on what you can do locally and no emergency information anywhere. While these seem like small issues, this is what determines a good status, not such a good stay. Lovely location though.

"Toilet was not cleaned and there was dog hair on the blankets."

Very peaceful escape.

"Fantastic idea, terrible execution. To be absolutely honest, the overall experience was fine. I had a lovely time. However, in terms of service, that part appears to be almost non-existent in my experience."

Starting with communicating with Mia via email. I made contact via email asking about wines and confirming that we were still able to bring our pet. She answered just fine to this email. Later, I sent a second email enquiring about wine tasting and the costs. This email was ignored. I had to send a third email to get a response. This time they did not even bother to respond in the language I made the enquiry in. She switched to Afrikaans for no reason at all. Then the actual stay - we made contact with Gerrie 30 minutes prior to arrange collection of the keys. We were told to meet him at the restaurant. We arrived, met with Gerrie, exchanged greetings and handshakes. I, in passing interest, asked what made them decide to set up a glamping site. This question appeared to irritate Gerrie and he shrugged with a huff and stated that they were building another 2 sites, not even addressing the initial question. Anyways, he stood there with a blank stare and I was forced to break the silence by asking "So what now?". To which he responded, "Follow me." We followed down the road and arrived at the site. The premises were extremely hot inside. Even the cutlery and glasses were so hot they could not be easily handled with a naked hand (yes, that hot). Gerrie had brought with him 2 wireless solar rechargeable fans. He placed them on the desk. That was it. Again, to break the silence and awkward interaction, I asked if there was anything I needed to know. Gerrie responded, "Yes, the hot water was gas and to turn the hot water on first before the cold." That was the end of our interaction; he left by saying if we needed anything to contact him, not even an "enjoy your stay". Okay, so this interaction was a little off, but then we discovered signage that was in complete contradiction of what we found at the place. 1. A sign saying no smoking - despite ashtrays strewn throughout the property (not even properly cleaned, clearly recently used). 2. A second sign stating no open fires outside during summer, yet they have a built open fire pit as part of the feature of the premises, not to mention the hot tub that would require transfer of embers. Speaking of the hot tub, the water was filthy, filled with insects, muck, and algae. Green in colour and slimy to the touch. No clear instruction was given on how to drain or refill with fresh clean water. As mentioned earlier, the premises inside was extremely hot, so we turned on the fans to try to cool down the glamp. They worked for a full 35 seconds before dying. Again, no instruction on how to recharge. Luckily, upon digging around, we found the little solar panels intended for the fans. We connected them and set the fans in the sun to charge. One of the fan's connectors was broken/loose, and we had to struggle and figure out a way to connect it. That night at about 9pm, the batteries of the solar system gave up the ghost, and we were without electricity for the entirety of the night, meaning fridges, lights, and water were no longer options. Oh, and the fans that we "charged" still did not charge or function properly. The following morning, I contacted Gerrie about the electricity. He arrived a short while later and connected a generator. We had electricity, this time at the expense of silence. Now that we had water, I decided to have a nice morning shower. The shower is a slipping health hazard trap just itching to hurt somebody. Okay, with all that said, every other experience was magical. Sunsets were fantastic, bird life around the site is amazing, the peacefulness was exactly what I was looking for. We were even graced with a troop of baboons making the routine way to the watering hole. What a lovely experience. Final morning - check-out morning. I tried to contact Gerrie to find out what he needed from us before we left. He did not even bother to answer his phone on this day; I was forced to contact Mia to get the details. So overall, I loved the place because of what I and my partner made of it, but in terms of service, good God. The troop of baboons provided us with better service. If you don't love what you do, then don't do it at all. Is it too much to ask for service with a smile? To get a little information without feeling like it's a chore? Hell, I was not even sure if the water was even drinkable.

"More camp than 'glamp'."

The photos are old. In the photos there is an indoor hot tub which is no longer there. The one outside is neglected. The place as a whole is very neglected. The tent rattles in the wind so much that one cannot sleep. The fridge is very small and the kettle is burnt black inside. No shower head works properly and sprays everywhere. I don't think the outside hot tub's water is exchanged between guests. No one can sit comfortably in the so-called hammock. The weeds stand higher than the wall in certain places and ruin your view. We left a day early just to be able to sleep in a decent bed.

"Wonderfully peaceful."

It was fantastic, peaceful. The scenery was breathtaking. The house itself was very nice and clean and we immediately saw and appreciated the white bed linen and towels. The outdoor shower was also very nice, everywhere in the house you only see the wonderful nature around you. Will definitely come again. There may be other chairs outside that one can sit on without wetting the other material chairs after being in the kol kol. The stairs can be a bit dangerous to get in and out - maybe an arrangement or strips to prevent slipping.

"Beautiful location, very neat. Views for miles."

Totally isolated with nothing and no one in sight. We will definitely be back again.

"Location within "Mother Nature"."

For anyone who is a wine lover, the location is perfect.

"Perfect!"

Beautiful! The staff was also very friendly and helpful.

"Incredible experience."

Perfect getaway from CPT, roughly 45 mins drive and you're in the serene valley near Riebeek Kasteel. Can't recommend this location enough, the hosts are friendly, helpful people. The glamping site is immaculate and very well-kept.

"Definitely worth it!"

The view was breathtaking. The indoor barbecue and the hot tub are the highlight.

"Lovely house, just a pity the wind blew so much that we couldn't use the outside braai or porch."

Fantastic location, stunning house. Tent roof needs some attention, but otherwise, lovely house.

"Very private. Very nice for a couple's getaway."

Was away for an anniversary weekend. Will definitely go again. Nice and quiet with a nice view and sun bag. Kolkol is perfect and braai area inside makes it very convenient. Very happy. Thank you very much.

"Rest for the soul with a painting-beautiful view."

All you hear is the sound of a few birds, and the braai wood on the fire. This 'glamping' gives you rest for the soul, far from everything and everyone, where you can sleep with an open door (and tent wall) and not have to worry about your safety. The view is remarkable and magical, every moment of the day and night and the cottage contains everything you need for a break from city life. My only suggestion for future visitors would be to pack plenty of Peacepul Sleep as the mosquitoes and a few flies are quite ambitious.

"Perfect getaway for 2."

I would suggest making 2 more glamping spots so a group of people can go and enjoy it.

"Wonderful experience."

We had lunch the Sunday at the restaurant delicious food, wine tasting, good prices and very friendly staff. The glamping was amazing. Thank you for a lovely experience.

"Lovely few days, very quiet and private."

Enjoyed everything about this place.

"Delicious."

Beautiful place, dead quiet and incredible view. The hot bath had been wonderful.

"Awesome."

Very nice location, place has everything you need.

"Such a romantic location, excellent view, and excellent reception."

Rustic glamping experience. Warm welcome by Meerhof and a complimentary bottle of wine. Well stocked with the necessities. Excellent view.

"Very pleasant, full of peace and quiet."

We really enjoyed our visit. The place is extremely centrally located. The view is to dream of. It is close to a town and yet very private.

"Nice and quiet and nice wine farms to visit. Nice roast in the evening."

Very nice stay, thank you. The view is very nice from the tent. Just an awful lot of spiders, but that's understandable. But someone who has a phobia of spiders will find it difficult.

"Good value for money and very relaxing atmosphere. Outstanding."

It is located in an exceptional location, with beautiful views and very quiet natural beauty.

"Very beautiful farm and unit. It have everything that you need for your stay."

The unit was clean when we arrived. The only thing was that we were not informed that the hot tub was moved outside of the unit. The inside hot tub was one of the reasons that attracted us to Meerhof.

"Very peaceful."

Had a bit of trouble with the KolKol hot tub, definitely recommend taking some dry wood with. The wood provided was too wet and unfortunately we could not make use of it. (Whole cabin was under smoke).

"Had a great time relaxing."

My wife and I had a great time relaxing with our 2 small dogs. The place was really very beautiful. All the people at the farm were also fantastic, from the moment of arrival until check out. Very friendly and helpful. Will certainly not be the last time we come to visit.

"We enjoyed it, but there is room for improvement."

1. The shower is either blazing hot or freezing cold. 2. The only sharp knife was blunt and broken off. 3. The towels are old and worn. 4. They provided only three towels. If you used two towels at the kol-kol bath, you didn't get two dry towels for the shower. 5. The fridge door is stuck to the floor. 6. The shade net on top of the tent roof flaps and flaps on the tent roof when the wind blows, then no one can sleep. 7. Their restaurant and wine tasting are then on Mondays and Tuesdays, which was not pointed out to us during the booking.

"We had an amazing stay at Meerhof Luxury Glamping."

The views were amazing. Tranquil and peaceful.

"We really enjoyed the break."

Meerhof luxury glamping was a nice getaway. It's very private and Gerrie was always available if we needed anything. I would only recommend that swimming towels are provided for the hot tub and warmer bedding for the cold evenings. Luckily we packed an extra blanket. Then small things that were not available were flashlights and matches to light a fire, steak knives and a dishwashing sponge. Other than that we had a wonderful stay.

"Bliss"

One can just sit and rest and forget about all the hustle and bustle. It's picture perfect just to sit and stare.

"Was very pleasant."

We really liked the glamping tent and the view was amazing. There was everything we needed. If I can only highlight one problem it is that the solar system that provides the power needs new batteries. The power does not last all night and then the geyser cannot arrive the next morning for hot water. System sits on and off for probably 2 hours until the sun is high enough to make enough power to pull the pump before there is hot water. This is a small problem that can be easily solved and will make everyone happy and satisfied.

"We had a great time. Flies were an issue. Will recap Doom next time."

Overall it was a very nice visit. Even with the rainy weather. It was a lovely visit.

"Awesome, Quiet, Private."

Will stay again, great place to chill and unwind.

"Very cosy little spot."

The accommodation was lovely. We left early as we were unable to sleep due to the sound of the wind blowing through the tent. It was extremely loud and unpleasant. It would be nice to have the option of having the hot tub filled and warmed prior to arrival. The views were magnificent! Bedding and curtains could do with an upgrade in order to be "luxurious". Good value for money otherwise.

"Peaceful, relaxing, private and serene!"

Everything you need is there, comfortable and well-appointed. The kitchen area just needs a little bit of an upgrade. Wonderful to be able to bring the furkids with you!

"Lovely two days together."

First we had a wine tasting and then delicious soup at the cellar and restaurant. The accommodation is large but cozy with everything you need. The outdoor hot tub was already lit and hot upon our arrival at our request. The view over the wheat fields with a beautiful sunset is special. The indoor braai warms the tent wonderfully and our braai was nice. However, remember to bring enough dry wood because the two crates available go quickly. The solar power went down due to the cloudy weather so bring your own lamps. The shower is either very hot or freezing cold. Also just confirm if there is bedding. There was no duvet or blankets on the bed. So we just dressed warmly and slept tightly under the blanket. All in all we enjoyed it immensely.

"Great location, but the place needs attention. For R840 per night you can really get better."

The deckchairs outside were in a battered condition, we couldn't even sit outside. The ashtray in the bathroom was broken. Not at all the nice chairs outside, which are shown in the photos. We couldn't get the kol-kol bath going. The solar didn't work properly - if I hadn't taken my own loadshedding light we would have been stranded. The manager, Gerrie, mentioned this when he went to unlock the place for us (that the battery system is not that effective). In all honesty, he wasn't really terribly helpful either. Shower head (water does not spray strongly) can definitely be replaced.

"Wonderfully peaceful with no generators or any noise around us. Silence was wonderful."

Was a lovely visit for 2 nights, hot tub takes about 1.5 hours to heat up, just smokes badly, but once water is warm it's worth it. Front door a little loin lame and needs a little attention. Nice fireplace for the cold evenings. Perfect for a romantic getaway.

"Nice."

See stars.

"Nice with nice view."

Was delicious and neat. There are baboons that are far away on the field which makes you feel a little uncomfortable. A bit unsafe, but otherwise a very nice place. There is also no door to the bathroom if you are a family that needs to stay there, not very practical. On the photos it showed there was a hot tub inside the tent and outside, but there was no indoor hot tub at the time.

"Lack of communication, actual farm was closed over my stay and never communicated, no water, water then fixed but no hot water the whole stay. No bottle opener to open wine while on a wine farm."

I did email, but here goes: I booked on a wine farm to wine taste - the farm was closed and never communicated. We could not access the accommodation because the farm was closed and the contact people never answered their phones. We then had to drive around to the workers on the farm to try and see who could help. No water - they then filled the water tank late the first evening. No hot water the entire stay. Beautiful location, but perhaps mention to people at a pet friendly place that baboons are running around. Huge potential for a beautiful stay, unfortunately poor communication and lack of details.

"Was not of the best stays l had."

We had electricity problems on our 2nd day due to no solar power and the road is bad with a normal car.

"Lovely glamping experience."

Lovely private, peaceful and secluded spot, but still close enough to everything for sightseeing and going out.

"Perfect romantic getaway for you and your partner."

I can not criticise on anything. No TV and limited electricity which makes it perfect to keep it simple and enjoy the surrounding beauty. This is where you go to recharge. All the staff members, including Jako, went out of their way to make our stay as lovely as possible.

"Amazing break away."

If you need a break away from the buzz of the city, this is the way to go. From checking in to needing more wood, Gerrie and his team were amazing. I would recommend Meerhof Luxury to anyone who needs to recharge.

"Quiet, cuddly, practical."

The people were always available if we needed anything and went above and beyond for us!

"Best getaway, best value for money, hospitality and people-people who carry you on their hands."

Everything was perfect, from the complimentary wine in our room to the wood fired pizza. I will definitely go again.

"Very, very nice."

Very nice, comfortable and perfect location.

"Breathtaking."

It was wonderful, the silence and beautiful view was worth it.

"Very peaceful and private."

Wonderful break from the busy Cape.

"Peaceful accommodation in a beautiful setting."

This glamping tent is highly recommended. There is everything you need and in this time of load shedding, it was great to always have lights because everything runs on solar. A bit difficult to regulate shower. Then blazing hot and then freezing cold. Maybe only the gray cups that are a bit stupid. The Jacuzzi is a winner. The most beautiful view from the porch. You even see Table Mountain! We had a great time.

"Beautiful place with a beautiful view of Table Mountain, unique, quiet and beautiful."

Beautiful place in seclusion, but not too far from the inhabited world. Friendly reception, nice breakfast in the restaurant nearby.

"Secluded which is exactly what we were after."

It is really lovely, location and privacy is sublime, but if I have to nitpick, there are a few "issues" that need to be resolved and they are things that I read in a few reviews, so I would think that Meerhof should hopefully attend to them so it makes it that more pleasant for the next people. The hot tub and fire place is inside which is fabulous, but the chimneys on both are lower than the tent roof so the smoke does not draw properly. Meerhof are aware of it as my husband asked if it is drawing properly (we read the reviews that stated it didn't) and the response was "sometimes, it draws 50/50". When it is raining and absolutely freezing, you don't want to have to start opening the windows and doors so the smoke starts flowing out, but we had no choice and that made the whole place ice cold when we were literally trying to make it warm. The water pressure was terrible, you either froze or burnt yourself (another point we read in reviews). We turned the heat and pressure on the gas outside to low, that helped regulate the water a little so at least we didn't have to jump in and out that much as we did on the first night. The gas for the cooker was empty, we only discovered that on the first night at 20h00, we didn't want to hassle anyone that time of night so that was a little pain as we had to relight a fire to cook and got smoked out again. We told them in the morning and it was sorted out no problem at all, but that is a detail that should have been looked at before we arrived. On the whole it was great and we will go back for sure but hopefully the chimneys get sorted and they find a solution for the water in the shower.

"Glamping but not luxury."

Loved the idea of a glamping tent and everything under one roof. The view is amazing and the hosts are super friendly and very helpful. The tent is big and open but definitely not luxury. Something we thought was going to be great but wasn't. When we arrived the tent/building/accommodation smelled like smoke, we discovered the reason behind the smelly room, was the woodfired hot tub, that's inside the tent and makes a lot of smoke as you have to open the "boiler" to constantly feed it wood to heat the water, the smoke is a definite no-go, everything smells like that, even the clothes inside the suitcase. It's a great idea, but not so effective in reality. Other than that it was nice, great setting, great hosts.

"Quiet, scenic, good location, "nice"."

Really something different and worth a visit. Lazily stretch out, decide for yourself when you get up and lie down. Most beautiful sun bag, outdoor bonfire makes way with expansive view. Nature goes on with its day-to-day needs, while you can enjoy it and conveniently close to surrounding villages. Worth a return.

"Comfortable, secluded and restful."

Nice place. Private, comfortable. Excellent wines and a gorgeous view from the restaurant. Regrettably the hot tub did not work when we were there. Received a bottle of wine on the house - nice surprise.

"The silence is so wonderful."

Lovely, relaxed visit, friendly welcome and everything you need to recharge your own batteries. Most beautiful sunset, will definitely go again because would love to see how beautiful those golden fields will look when they are planted too.

"Quiet, romantic and private."

Perfect place to be alone with spouse. Can have a great conversation and be in love again for free.

"First night great, second: poor."

At least one of the 2 contacts in Johannesburg took my call after the power never came back on after that with load shedding at 6:00 on Saturday. Wasn't prepared for deep darkness. Other contact who came to replace our guest on Saturday morning (hesitant at first) was just not available. Phone direct to voicemail. Terrible inconvenience experienced second night. No apology since. Not even when we checked in at breakfast on Sunday. So much for new inverter installed. So disappointed.

"Great location and quiet. Good for the soul to unload."

Gerrie welcomed us and took us to the accommodation. We rested very well and enjoyed the silence. It is very nice that all the amenities are inside, such as the fire place and jacuzzi. I would suggest putting up instructions for the jacuzzi as previous people have damaged it because they don't know how it works. The shower's water also got cold very quickly, and the faucet is very sensitive with the setting. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it.

"Pleasant."

We were disappointed that we could not use the hot tub already on Friday evening. The water still wouldn't heat up after several hours. My husband first had to take out all the ashes (from previous guests) the next morning and when we started the fire again the water started to warm up. The bed is also very creaky and I have woken up many times during the night when my husband turns over. Lastly, the shower was a problem. The water was either so hot that you burn or ice cold. No matter what we tried, we couldn't find a good medium.

"The location is wonderful but functionality and cleanliness spoils the experience."

There are many previous comments about issues with the shower's hot/cold water but nothing seems to be done to improve this. Cleanliness was a big issue generally. The hot tub is unusable as when you fill it all the old soot and worms etc. come into the water as the runaway pipe is too high. Tried flushing twice. The solar inverter had issues that they wanted to work on the Saturday during our visit when one wants privacy. So had to have a generator running most weekend to use the fridge. Should not rent out weekends when it's not fully functional. Spoils the experience for the client.

"Beautiful accommodation, placed on a wine farm with stunning views."

Epic accommodation on a beautiful mountain too hidden away from Meerhof Wine farm for privacy and enjoyment. Well created and spacious accommodation with views galore and just pure silence and fresh air. Built on stone with glamping tent covers and powered by solar. Off grid living is something else, won't lie. First off-grid living and enjoyed the experience. Well, weather decided to be 42 degrees, but the hot tub, now cold tub, kept us cool all day.

"Place is very nice."

Place is very nice. Just a pity that we were dependent on generator.

"Hot tub unusable but the view is nice."

First of all, I would like to mention that the location of the tent has an amazing view and you can enjoy the most beautiful sunsets, but there are quite a few unpleasant features of the stay. . First, the hot tub is unusable. My husband had to take out the dead worms and lice before we turned on the water. After we poured the water, worms and lice still came out, and this made us not want to use the hot tub. . Second, we had to wash all the cutlery and glasses before we could use them due to dust and cobwebs. . Thirdly, the bedding had old stains on it and the blankets had a hole burned in them, which disturbed our rest a bit considering that it was not clean. . Lastly, the shower is either way too hot, or freezing cold. We tried all the methods in the book to make it work but had a lot of trouble.

"Quiet, nicely recharged, good service! Definitely value for money!"

Meerhof we will definitely see you again! Note that it is solar, so try to use as little power as possible. If there is what is needed! Need a pickup truck to get to accommodation. Looking forward to our next visit! Thank you guys! Heart people!

"It was lovely, a nice resting place."

Enjoyed every moment to the fullest.

"Best place ever."

Would recommend Meerhof Glamping anytime to anyone wanting to get away and relax a bit from busy life. Really enjoyed having alone time with only the birds you hear. Beautiful view, nicest room and cozy.

"Nice quiet break from the busy world."

Very nice stay. Exceptional view over the wheat fields with a beautiful sunset.

"It was lovely and relaxing."

No one around made it very private with a stunning view.

"Excellent, nothing short, excellent service."

You can just enjoy yourself there, it's very neat and nicely rounded, also do a lot of things to make it even more enjoyable for you and are also prepared to always do something extra. Will tell everyone about them, it was really nice! If you are looking for service, it is at Meerhof!

"Peace of mind not too far from home."

My wife and I enjoyed ourselves here with our dogs and children. Less than an hour's drive from Durbanville. Place is good to rest. Dogs could walk around as they wanted and not too far from the town if you needed something. Got good customer service when we asked for something. You do need a 4x4 to get there, but the road is not too rough at all. Solar only, but it didn't bother at all, system was well charged even though it was cloudy one day.

"Great break from the city. Meerhof was an ideal getaway for us."

Silence of the city and a romantic background to just relax. Cornel and Jaco are a fantastic host/wife and we had a wonderful time at their farm. We can highly recommend it! We will definitely see Meerhof again soon.

"Lovely setting, quiet and private. "

Perfect for a romantic getaway. Close to some lovely wine farms to keep you entertained. Lovely sun sets while sitting around the boma fire.

"We had a wonderful stay. Will definitely do it again. Most calming and beautiful surroundings."

Our last night was a bit of a challenge, was stormy and windy. The alarm made an irritating sound right through the night. The control of hot and cold water in the shower was a big frustration. However, we still enjoyed our stay. Would suggest replacing the outside chairs. Hope to see you soon.

"Beautiful views. The Cape wind blows the "glamping" part out the window!"

The reception was not very friendly. Would have appreciated if there was a bigger fridge as a "bar fridge" just can't keep everything cold while on holiday. We had a great stay and really enjoyed the surroundings with the most beautiful views, even Table Mountain in the distance!

"Terrible."

Dirty, sour welcome, mice nest and mice living in chairs, birds fly into the tent through gaps at 5am and poop everywhere, Hole in fitted sheet and something ate holes in our nightwear and we didn't notice until we went to bed the second night otherwise we would have left. Previous guest's contact lense left on bedside table and either very hot water or very cold water. Tent smells of wood smoke as the wood-fired hot tub is in the room. I have directly emailed the owners, but no response over 10 days after leaving, so hence my review on here. The pictures tell a different story altogether. Very unpleasant experience.
