Serene, quiet and mindful.

8.0

It was so quiet, removed from the chaos of a city. The loft apartment was wonderful. A serene space inside, filled with plants and light and truly a beautiful bed positioned to relax as well as be naturally exposed to the light. The access to the fire pit was lovely in Winter, and when ready to indulge, the food that Rodney produced was incredible. The dogs were a treat, and so wonderful to have on my walks as they led the way and made me feel that much safer when walking away from the farm.

It worked for me as it was remote. If one was wanting to do any other activities, it may be far away.

Magical retreat in the Magaliesburg

10.0

The property is quiet and serene, whilst still providing modern niceties like great wi-fi and all the necessities for self-catering. There is a big fire pit in the common area, as well as a small braai area around the different accommodations, all of which are fully stocked with wood. Allowing guests the option to braai or make a fire to sit to around. Rodney is an exceptional host. Lovely, warm, accommodating and helpful, without being overbearing. He's very knowledgeable of the area and is quick to fill you in on the local sights and hiking spots. Nothing seems too much of a ask for him and he made us feel completely at home, during our stay. The accommodation offers catering at extra cost. I'd highly recommend booking dinner for one / two nights. My partner and I had a three course meal, which was both amazing and great value. We chose to have dinner by the fire pit, looking out on the stars. The food, atmosphere and attention to detail was fantastic. All in all, we'd jump at the opportunity to come back a second time.

The property is quite remote in the sense that it is 30 minutes to the closest shops or restaurants, so I'd suggest bringing all the necessities and food in at once. Additionally, the gravel road leading to the property is a bit tricky to navigate in a sedan / hatchback, but would be absolutely fine with a bigger car. However, once you get used to the roads traversing them becomes a lot less tricky.

The scenery, wild-life, long walks and peace and tranquility were amazing. Rodney was an exceptional host, checking in constantly and lighting our fires at night.
