17 guests' feedbackBeautiful remote location. Would love to have had more time to hike on the farm and in the mountains. Definitely a place to spend more than one night.
It was a weekend where friends met to catch up and this was a perfect destination for that. Road is tough but fair warning of the terrain so no excuse not to get out there! Far out and remote with the quiet serenity of nature and stunning views of a dam at eye level, as it meets the mountain and incredibly blue skies.
We enjoyed a wonderful long weekend in the comfortable and spacious chalet overlooking the beautiful trout dam. All our needs had been considered from a bag of rusks on our arrival, to a huge bag of firewood for the braai and the indoor fireplace - we were at home from the moment we arrived. Kirsten and her family are very friendly and they did their best to make our stay a pleasure. Loadshedding has become a status quo unfortunately, but they provided a gas plate option and several rechargeable lights to assist us when the power was off. We enjoyed fishing at the two trout dams and luckily our efforts were rewarded with several good catches. It was so secluded on the farm and we enjoyed exploring the paths and fields that surrounded the chalet. On one of the days, it was misty and rainy and we were able to relax in the comfy living area and play cards and Jenga and even watch some cricket on our computer because they very kindly supply wi-fi to the chalet! We would definitely recommend this as a lovely getaway for a family with teenagers.
Lower green scenery among hundreds of sheep, lambs and cattle. Absolute hospitality, every moment. Icing on the cake is the healthiest and liveliest rainbow and brown trout, nothing smaller than 1.5 kg. Definitely a part of our beautiful country to see.
The interior of the unit we stayed in could do with a good cleaning and a little sprucing up/better maintained.
Als is green, and as far as the eye can see it is unspoiled nature. The mountains around and the natural valleys are picture-perfect. Terribly beautiful wildflowers. It is clean and fresh air and lovely to sit at the table in the sun. One can see that the farmer loves his farming. Suggestion: if possible. cut a walking path to the dam and around the dam, this will only make it easier to get to the dam which is in front of the chalet. To fully enjoy the pond, maybe a bench or two. He and his wife are very friendly and nice. We really had a great time relaxing and hanging out.
A bit far on the dirt road but worth it, really enjoyed it.
Our family had a fantastic time staying over in the Rainbow Trout chalet, overlooking the dam. We enjoyed canoeing, hiking in the mountain, forests and rock pool areas, watching the new born lambs and seeing 1700 sheep being fed. Kirsten and Eckart are very friendly, informative hosts and it was interesting to learn about their german community, Lüneburg. Highly recommended for a true farm stay.
Peaceful and relaxing, overlooking a beautiful trout dam. Walking in the surrounding hills possible.
Great rest, we are so sorry we didn't stay an extra night. The wind was blowing nice and rough which would force us to rest more and maybe just play games, drink a glass of wine and use the fireplace. Was really lovely, nice walk and explore. And trout were caught there.
Beautiful mountains, ideal for walking and cycling. The children enjoy the farm, the pond, the rowing boat, and especially the animals. Good place to switch off and break away from the hustle and bustle of life.
The cottages are well equipped with a huge veranda to sit on and stare out over the dam and mountains. The drive up into the mountains is great fun with such beautiful scenery. Our young children enjoyed driving along to help feed the sheep and being able to just run and run and run. We will be back.
The scenery is absolutely fantastic. Only negative was that the unit was not clean!
Excellent, mganificent, outstanding.
The people were very friendly and even put in extra effort because we were on honeymoon. It was so relaxing and pretty on the farm.
Great place between the mountains.
Was a lovely experience just upgrade your safety for example the front door does not lock properly. Thanks so much.
