60 guests' feedbackRefreshing, chilled, beautiful, amazing. A place to relax.
My brother and I thoroughly enjoyed the silence. The view was beautiful, especially the mountains. Our reception was very good. I would go and relax there again anytime.
The stay was so peaceful and we really enjoyed it! The host was great, and the dogs were so friendly and well behaved. It was so good to see stars again! Well suited for children.
The path up to the cottage is a bit challenging, but not difficult at all if you have the right vehicle. Would highly recommend the place, especially if you are an outdoor enthusiast.
The place was as advertised. We enjoyed our time there, but it got very cold because the weather suddenly changed and it rained. So, if you don't like cold weather, bring heating items like a hot water bottle or a heater.
Very peaceful and mind-refreshing. Home away from home.
The beds are comfortable, and kitchen well kitted out. We will definitely come to this place again. Beautiful surroundings.
Home away from home. Hospitality.
Mountain View is a great place to stay in Badplaas. It is peaceful and the owner Wimpie is a great guy.
Most beautiful environment, accommodation was very clean and tidy, owner and caretaker are very friendly and helpful. Can definitely recommend the stay!
Owner was very friendly, accommodation was very neat and clean. Great value for money.
Firstly, the dirt road is not very comfortable, no car will be able to drive there safely, secondly, their privacy in bathrooms is not good at all, windows are not shaded, curtains are completely transparent. No coffee or sugar put out, at least I made provision, but we travel often, it just gives a welcome feeling on arrival. No atmosphere-creating lights outside, pitch black! No security on the farm either, makes you uneasy.
Challenge experienced ,the other chalet bathroom basin was not working properly only have hot water , not cold which created negative imapct to us. And on saturday morning when we prapare to go to swim, the swimming pool was not clean, we have to request prior , also created negative ipmact amine , woner and agnet know for quite sometimes about the bookings , in nutshell can say things were nite well orgainise for us.
Special location. Nice peaceful atmosphere. Very cute place.
Very neat and clean. Have a nice time!
Very warm, friendly hosts. Stunning location.
Cleanest clean place in the "bush". Calm atmosphere, I don't like big dogs, but the Great Danes are so calm and don't bother you at all. Great visit, looking forward to the next time.
Good retreat venue especially for friends, team building and social events.
The place is very beautiful, dogs are very friendly and well mannered and the place has the nicest water.
Interior decoration needs attention. Door frames can be rounded.
For those who are satisfied with the minimum, this will suffice. We love dogs, but it bothers you when everyone rushes into your place. Very nice view and lovely silence, but some places need a bit of renovation. After all, we slept nice and warm on a bitterly cold weekend.
It's clean and safe to visit.
Was quiet and peaceful, the surroundings are beautiful, accommodation was clean and tidy. Would recommend to anyone, very definitely going again.
It a very quite and safe place to visist. Very good for children. It has a nice view of the mountain and there is a fireplace.
The place is very clean, quiet and reserved.
We were kindly received, Wimpie and Andre made us feel very welcome. Accommodation has everything you may need. Very cozy braai area and private. We really enjoyed the dog children, nice manners and very loving. Perfectly located for morning and late afternoon walks. Right place if you want to relax. Would recommend to anyone.
Andre is a very friendly and helpful person. He welcomed us and explained everything and checked in every day to see if we were still satisfied. The resort is very neat, as are the cottages we stayed in. We really can't complain about anything. Will definitely go and relax there again.
We found a neat and comfortable place. Our no. 2 house was unfortunately at the playground and the children of no. 3 and 4 were there all the time. Our Yorkies couldn't handle the screams and games. They barked a lot and were well behaved towards the other dogs, which we do not know. They always go with us when we are on vacation and are used to other dogs. We went away every day. Next time we will ask for no. 7 or 8 so we can be away from the playground.
It was only after we had booked that it was explained to us that a further R300 deposit must be paid which will then be refunded electronically. Such information must already be mentioned in the advertisement. It feels like a cow being milked. Other than that, I really enjoyed it.
Accommodation unit very good, road to accommodation extremely bad.
The atmosphere is reviving and calming,you can feel the spirit of tranquility.It is perfect if you need to escape the busy noisey city life and its pollution.At Mountain View you can smell the fresh air from the trees while enjoying the beautiful sight of the mountain.Andre' the host is very caring( the man of God)and helping as well.
Beautiful and peaceful place at the foot off the hill.
Will definitely visit again, thank you for your hospitality!
We literally owned the farm! Peace of mind! Chilling with friends, listening to music, barbecue! This farm is one of its kind!
Beautiful view and lovely people.
See stars.
The place is very nice, friendly and quiet.
TV and heater needed.
Hospitable and friendly. Beautiful environment.
A quiet getaway weekend with beautiful scenery and the mountain view right in front of your door. The Chalets are tidy with only the essentials. Nice and private with everything you need within a 4 kilometer radius around the accommodation.
It was good value for money and the scenery is stunning. The road is a bit bad, but not impossible. A TV would have been nice.
The caretaker is friendly, but a bit of a nuisance. It is a very peaceful environment. Beautiful view and many birds. Amenities are very neglected.
Wow, what a lovely green, natural place. The dogs were very friendly. The people are very welcoming.The braai area was nice.
We were received very kindly and nothing was too much for the owners to make us comfortable. We were there with our grandchildren but it was raining a lot so the children were indoors and got bored, then the owners came to our rescue by making their children's toys and games available. We will definitely go back again and would highly recommend Mountain View Retreat.
We were worried about the dirt road, but it was not too bad. Had a lot of fun. Take many mosquito repellents along!
Although not luxurious, we had a wonderful stay. Beds very comfortable. Wimpie communicated from the start on how to get there. Very close to Badplaas and suitable for day visit. We felt very welcome and could switch off from the hustle and bustle of the city. If we are in the area, we will definitely stay here again.
We did not give time to view thoroughly because we were tired, but we're going back in September.
Friendly, efficient reception and good accommodation.
Just want to say thanks to Wimpie and Ander for their hospitality. We enjoyed the one night a lot. It's stunning there! Was just disappointed to leave earlier because of theft in our complex.
Great place to get away from hectic life.
Nice place to visit.
Nice quiet place, friendly staff members.
Our stay was amicable. The treatment we got from Andre was beyond this world. He was very helpful and made us feel at home. Very helpful, very handy. Made very much sure everything we needed was there. We really enjoyed our stay. We have found ourselves a second home. Thank you Andre.
The chalet was well equipped, clean and tidy. The site is nice and tidy with a swimming pool and a beautiful "view" over the whole area. This is truly a retreat and I will definitely go again!
Best place to switch off and bond with family and nature.
This was a convenient stop en route to the Kruger Park. It was peaceful and quiet, and offered value for money for a family of four adults and one young child. Nothing fancy, but clean and adequately equipped.
Beautiful place and really friendly and kind hosts.
Very good telephone and email service with directions. Friendly welcome in the evening upon our arrival there. The chalet was neat and clean. The geyser was apparently specially turned on beforehand, but still cold water late at night. Then my clever man found the switch (which was in the "off" position, pushed it "on" and voila, hot water! It's the ideal place for a quiet weekend or a few days away from the city bustle. The dirt road up was just badly washed out and full of bumps and rocks and caused damage to the vehicle's tyres.Nevertheless enjoyed the view, quietness and safety.
Bathroom soap full of hair. Ants everywhere. People didn't know we booked. Poison is scattered everywhere. Cook rat on pillow upon arrival. Fry dirty. No, will never go there again.
There were dogs that licked the braai stand. Not enough light at night. Rooms not tidy. Not even a car port nor a security guard in the yard.
