8 guests' feedbackThe location, history and cleanliness of Paardeplaats is fantastic. The visit with the owners was fun and very informative.
The farm is picturesque. Rooms are neat. The bed and bedding were top notch.
Beautiful surroundings with breathtaking scenery. Rooms are well furnished and tidy. The host and hostess are very hospitable and make you feel very welcome. Delicious food and good company. We will definitely go back!
We were really warmly received and had a lovely visit and dinner with Brian and Gerda, the owners of Paardeplaats Nature Retreat. The food was top notch and we will definitely visit again. A very comfortable atmosphere made our stay worthwhile.
Had a wonderful time. Pity the dam was dry so no fishing on-site.
The best place ever, if you want to spend time with your family and Jesus. Brian and Gerda are the two best people who will welcome you with an open heart and attitude. Accommodation is very neat and clean, a true gem, worth every cent.
I have visited many places but this has been the first time that I experienced such friendliness.nIt felt as if we had known Brian and Gerda a long time. nI would definately recommend their place to my friends and family and we will be back again.nThanks again Brian and Gerda.
