"Skilderagtig"

"Die konstante verandering in die lug, weerkaatsing op die water is voedsel vir die siel. Huisie is pragtig toegerus."
"Weekend stay"

10 February 2020

"We spent the weekend at the cabins, it was clean neat and quiet. It had everything we needed all I took with me was spices and my best pan. There were no mosaquitoes which was my biggest concern. The chest fridge was a bit small, but fine for 2 people for 2 days."
"To experienced the beautiful sunrise over the dam with the backdrop of nature in all its beauty."

"The lovely, clean & well equip rustic cabin was quite welcoming; however, missed the complimentaries - coffee sachets, sugars etc normally presented on arrival. The comfortable bed with its the clean crisp bedding was a great hit. The fireplace though was causing a bit of smoke build when we used it & maybe a gas heater could be an additional feature to this otherwise perfect setup."
"Complete peace"

"Loved everything about Platbos, was exactly what we needed. It is a very relaxing and tranquil place. Love that is very private.We would have liked more hiking trail signs up, as one could get lost if taking the incorrect path."
"The views"

04 February 2018

"It was a beautiful cabin on the lake. The views were breathtaking and it was so nice and secluded. The bed was not the most comfortable- but I am a fussy sleeper. There was so shampoo - so remember to take your own. I am definitely going to return in winter. The "no electricity" was not a problem at all, as there were solar powered LED lights and two USB points to charges phones etc. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. Thank you"

"It was just perfect. Peaceful. The surrounding mountains were magical. The cottage was tastefully designed. We didn't want to leave and will definitely return."
"Great"

"We spent a lovely weekend in this tranquil setting. The view over the dam and up to the mountains, some snow capped, was stunning. The finishes in the cabin are of high quality, the furnishings very comfortable. Best of all, the three cottages are spaced far apart so one has privacy and peace. We'll probably be back next year for a weekend."
