  • "What a place!"

    10 October 2018

    "A beautiful, spacious house refurbished to very high standards (except kitchen: spacious, well equipped but basic); tastefully decorated and fully equipped to make it feel you are in a home from home. Set in the beautiful surroundings of the Bergview Estate with lots of safe walking and hiking trails to suit any taste. Peaceful, yet within easy driving distance of all that the central Berg has to offer. We cannot recommend this place highly enough!!"

  • "Lovely place to stay"

    04 June 2018

    "Emfuleni is a lovely home, spacious and well equipped. The children said it is "die beste huisie" and that says it a lot. We had everything we need. We had a lovely walk, the Grotto hike and it was so good to clear our heads in the beautiful surroundings of Emfuleni and spend quality time with the children. We will definitely be back in the future."

  • "A wonderful, spacious home from home"

    11 March 2018

    "A lovely full scale spacious house in a beautiful location. Although we did not meet the owner, we were in touch by phone and he was very prompt, friendly and helpful. Everything looked recently refurbished yet homely. Not yet the kitchen, but there was a good stove/oven, good size fridge/freezer, plenty of crockery etc. and plenty work space."

  • "The tranquility of the location."

    02 January 2018

    "Proximity to the foothills of the majestic mountains, the amazing 360 degree views, the spaciousness within the house and access to Drak.Sun.The old and recent cookware and tableware, the smells emanating from steel cabinets and the present of Phumi on departure day in the house at eight. No privacy for breakfast and packing."

The house had everything that I needed from a well catered kitchen to enough space to entertain a few friends for a braai. I would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a good few days of quality rest."

    10 October 2016

  • "A preview of paradise"

    03 October 2016

    "We had a great time in the cottage. It was easy to find, beautifully situated, very quiet. The place is well taken care of and well-equipped. Using the fire place added to the atmosphere at the end of cold days, but we had hot ones as well and made great hikes and other excursions. We'd love to come back some time next year, if possible!"

  • "Perfect peaceful get-away"

    29 September 2015

    "Everything you need to know is on their website, they email you the door code and car pass to print... and that's the only interaction we had with anyone during our whole stay - which is exactly what we wanted. <br /><br />House is clean and tidy whilst feeling homely. To our relief, the house is situated on the edge of a complex - not overlooked by anyone with brilliant views of the 'Berg.<br /><br />Whole heartedly recommend this place to anyone.<br />"

  • "Emfuleni"

    14 September 2015

    "We spent a wonderful weekend at Emfuleni. the surroundings are so tranquil and beautiful. The house is comfortable and we wanted for nothing. We would love to return soon."

  • "wonderful stay!"

    11 August 2015

    "My stay at emflueni was so wonderful! The house was so clean and tidy. The atmosphere was very tranquil and relaxing. I enjoyed every minute of my stay. Emflueni is in the perfect position , in the middle of all the action and close to the shops and surrounding resorts and restaurants. Although, it would have been that much better to have the full dstv package with all the channels to choose from after a long day of outings. Other than that it was great! Will definitely be back."
