Lovely, the hospitality was amazing. Keep it up 👌🏾

Beautiful, quiet and secure setting. It gives a sense of peace. Its atmosphere fosters a sense of comfort and peace, making it ideal for meaningful social interaction while subtly reflecting principles of well-being. The view from the main road screams peace!!!

The place is beautiful & secluded.

The place is quite beautiful but I believe they can do more in terms of reception and how they receive their customers. I can’t remember the African lady’s name Nokukhanya or Noluthanda tried her best to make our stay comfy. The place is tranquil and liked the fact that there are no TVs in the rooms. The light switches were beautiful and unique. The coffee/tea cups were just beautiful. The outdoor chairs are to die for. The property is highly secured. Marketing photos about this place don’t lie, though during our stay the place was under renovations and reconstruction.

Misleading advertisement, poor facilities

Property has a pool, which would nice for a summer visit. There is a dam, but you'll need to drive and find it for yourself. It's not nearby facilities.

It was a very horrible experience

It was absolutely horrible, no idea why this property is still listed. My car almost got damaged, they are doing road works. The turnoff is invisible and you have to practically drive through a mini cliff to get to it. False advertisement, no breakfast was provided This needs to be urgently removed and this is a safety risk.

Great people working there. They go beyong their expected duty to make you comfortable. The air, animals, the fishing and picnic outing. Seeing the animals and how much they love the animals. Security is very high.

Experincing the nature within in peace and serenity....Awesome...

If there is a place that provides serenity and peace, it is this game farm. The hospitality of the staff makes you feel at home while the sounds of the birds create a heavenly experience.

Tranquility less than 2 hours from the city

Such a peaceful place to really get away from it all. The sunset picnic at the dam was so special!

Historic buildings in nice setting with great hosts.

Good location a few km from the N2 and I’m the middle of a big game farm. Very nice, historic buildings thoughtfully conserved. The fort tower was a real highlight. Nice pool to relax in after a long drive. Clara and Sean were excellent hosts. Their passion for the place really came through and was infectious. They prepared nice meals and Sean took us on a good game drive around the farm with interesting insights on land/ game management, history, and the plants/ animals themselves.

Special stay at Trumpetters!

The hostess went the extra mile from arrival to departure. She prepared beautiful meals and made the guests feel at home. Rooms and facilities are beautifully restored. The watchtower and history of the place was special. Unfortunately did not have the time to explore much on the game side of things.
