    "All round good experience, from tranquility gazing at the rolling hills and nearby Springboks to being part of the daily farm activities. Was such a treat to go and fetch fresh eggs for breakfast. Marthie looked after us very well, providing wood for the fire, farm fresh milk and delicious rusks. The cottage was nicely set up and comfortable and clean. We will definately go back."

    "What a fabulous little gem on a working farm. Clean and spacious with all amenities you'd need. Inside and outside braai, with a gorgeous patio to watch the sunset. The best part is collecting fresh milk and eggs in the morning and meeting all of the farm animals which even include a pet buck :-)<div>We'd definitely recommend it.</div>"
