There are 2 rooms available for rent in a separate cottage on the farm. Very well equipped and the owner, Lettie, met us on arrival. We had the whole place to ourselves.

The street from the Main road to the property needs some serious rehabilitation. It's currently a hazard for non-Off road vehicles.

“Exceptional home away from home”
The place is clean and a home away from home. They have everything you need. Calm and peaceful environment. I'm lost of words to describe Lettie (kind, thoughtful etc). Wow 👌 👏. Self catering but she still bakes, provides goodies for you. We booked room 1 and 3 because room 2 was already taken when we booked. She accommodated us at room 1 and 2 which were in the same house. That's was thoughtful and accommodative. We appreciate that. May God bless you 🙏 ❤️

“Wonderful and peaceful stay at Ibis Nest”
Beautiful property situated on the banks of a river. The two bedroom house with two bathrooms is an absolute gem. The fully equipped kitchen has all the amenities you need & there is an outside barbecue as well. The DSTV has a full bouquet. There is a lovely free standing bath in the one bathroom as well as a fitted bath & shower in the second bathroom. Lettie is a wonderful host & we had freshly baked rusks as well as scones, cheese & jam, upon arrival, as well as bunches of lovely flowers in the rooms. The beds are comfortable & we had electric blankets as well as heaters & some chocolates on our pillows. There is lovely walking trails on the farm. We cannot wait to visit again.

“This was the best RELAXATION. Away from the city hussle, yet a short drive to shops”
This property was absolute WOW. Out in the nature, spacious and very well equiped. Enjoying a cup a coffee early morning or a glass of wine / Amarula late afternoon next to the waters was the best medicine for an extremely tired soul. The homemade rusks were delicious 😍
