"Totally an awesome experience. We loved taking this 'road less travelled' and were well rewarded with the beauty of nature. Thank you very much Frik."


"Briljant"

(South Africa) Phia Marais

"Absoluut uitstekend. Ek bevel dit aan vir almal wat rus vir sy gees wil he. Die organisasie is onverbeterlik en pynlik netjies.

Dankie aan Frik, wat so uit sy pad gaan om alles net in orde, gerieflik en skoon te hou. Jou diens wat jy gelewer het is baie skaars en word baie hoog op prys gestel..."

"Absoluut uitstekend. Ek bevel dit aan vir almal wat rus vir sy gees wil he. Die organisasie is onverbeterlik en pynlik netjies.

Dankie aan Frik, wat so uit sy pad gaan om alles net in orde, gerieflik en skoon te hou. Jou diens wat jy gelewer het is baie skaars en word baie hoog op prys gestel.Jy het ten alle tye jou gaste op die hande gedra. Jy is ongelooflik kosbaar.

Ek kan net met lof praat oor alles wat vir ons aangebied was. Daar is absoluut niks om oor te kla nie.

Dit is n vyf ster motel in die veld. Die avontuur en skoon heid van die veld kan nie in woorde vas gele word nie.

Witteberg Privaat Natuur Reservaat sal my beslis weer sien. Ek het groot vrymoedigheid om dit vir enige persoon aan te bevel. Dankie Frik, jy is n meester.

"Clean, Comfortable & Peaceful."

(South Africa) Pieter & Verencia Benade

"Beautiful environment. Very friendly and helpful host. Clean, well equipped and real comfortable chalet. Unfortunately we spent only 1 night and did not had time to explore the area, which we think is a must. Therefore we do recommend at least 3 nights."


"Wonderful"

"Wonderful place full of surprises! Nothing comes served on a platter you have to go look for all the gems that lies abundantly strewn all over the place. Had a lovely time with a exceptionally good host!"


"Wonderful"

"We had a lovely stay over at Witteberg Private Nature Reserve after a long days travelling. Frik was so helpful, friendly and really made sure we wanted for nothing. It was a super gravel road getting there as well. Highly recommended."

We were warm and comfortable in the accommodation - loved the fireplace and plentiful wood supply. Plenty of hot water and everything worked well. Loved the chats with Frik about the history and the things to see. Wish we could have spent longer there to explore the reserve more! Beautiful fynbos, and lovely walks. All in all, a great find!"

"A Karoo - mountain experience!"

Lots of places to walk and hike, cycle (mountain bike) and drive. The mixture of Karoo and fynbos vegetation makes it and interesting environment. Anysberg nature reserve 1 hours drive away but you need a high clearance vehicle. Elandskloof farm itself is easy to reach via the Witteberg access road."

"We stayed at the self-catering rooms for four persons at the Witteberg Private Nature Reserve. Although the units are attached to each other, they are very comfortably furnished and equipped. We had an excellent time and appreciated the very comfortable set up. Cold nights were made cosy with a beautiful fire, and excellent braai wood was also provided. We were extremely well looked after by the manager, Frik Linde. The reserve is beautiful and peaceful, and we especially appreciated the freedom to just walk out of the front door and into the mountains.

Will definitely be returning to this haven!"

"Witteberg is literally off most maps, and we think we were very lucky to have discovered it via RoomsForAfrica. We were welcomed warmly by the owner, Frik Linde, and by a superb photo opportunity presented by two klipspringers posing on the rocky ridge above. The reserve stretches from edge to edge of a deep rugged valley. Frik is deeply rooted in its history, with a fund of stories about the people, the places and the history of Witteberg, which has been in his family for generations. We would recommend a stay to anyone looking for peace and quiet in stunning scenery. We would love to return in a few years to see how Frik's work in regenerating the native fauna is progressing."

The accommodation is wonderful.

We will definitely see you again for a longer stay!
