"We only stayed for two nights, but simply arriving there made us wish it was for longer. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, the scenery is breath taking and the accommodation is exactly as it's advertised so there are no nasty surprises or unexpected drawbacks. It's close enough to Dullstroom for popping in and out for a bite or a visit, and the actual drive between the two is just stunning. Definitely coming back here again."

"Lovely setting, friendly, efficient staff. We settled for the cheapest 6 sleeper chalet. Was well equipped and warm with an unexpected fire place outside. The bedding however was seriously old as was the bathroom, although it was clean and everything worked.
Next time we will upgrade to the thatched cottages as hopefully they will be a bit 'younger'."

"The rondavel was a bit cold. We also did not know that the ablution would be seperate , but we adjusted to it.
The ablution can maybe be upgraded.
The gravel road was also at some places very bad, so it can also be scraped maybe."

"The Cottage have all you need, clean, beautiful landscape pictures, stunning dam views, staff really going extra mile and they have stock supplies.... ice, wood and warm fresh home made bread... Heaven"

"We loved waking to quiet nature sounds. The fields and dams are gorgeous.
The braaiplace at the cottage needs a serious upgrade, we couldn't braai as the grid was way to high to heat the meat and lots of the other braaiplaces were not cleaned properly. The fireplace also does not air properly, ..."

"Petals and bottle of champagne for Valentines day !"

"We loved our short stay there. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and there were nice facilities for our little boy. Beautiful surroundings and challenging fishing. Joy was helpful with hiking and surrounds info. Will definitely be back!"

"My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stayed. We were particularly pleased with the Die Houthuis and would recommend it to anyone looking for a country cabin breakaway.

"Alles was volgens ons idiaal."

"The family and I had a good time, place is clean and family friendly.

Owner was amazing and very helpful, she os amazing!

I'd return again, loved it!"

"Plek is netjies en goed gele‘. Lekker gerus."

"We loved our stay at the farm . Very peaceful would loved to stay for week .Thanks "

We waited untill 11 but we finally left without showering. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay there."

"We enjoyed our stay. Would have like the heads up about the fire place. Our house was covered with smoke.
We were actually looking forward to the fireplace in winter."

"Stayed overnight. As they had heavy rain, road very slippery, would not recommend travelling if one does not have 4X4. Cottage comfortable. Water was foul smelling and brown. Other then that stay was good."

"Dit was aangenaam maar dat die restaurant nie oop was nie en swembad was nie skoon nie, dit was bietjie ongerieflik.

Before leaving, we took a casual hike to the top of the koppie that has a beautiful view of the dams and farm.

If it was not for the other guest's dogs barking at us in front of our unit, I would return any day and would recommend it to anyone. SafariNow website does not indicate that this is a pet friendly establishment.
Establishment Response:
Thank you for your review. We apologies that the other guests dogs bothered you. We will definitely make guests aware of that in future."

"The place is nice, we really enjoyed ourselves during our stay. Celeste was welcoming, she has great hospitality, she was very kind. I wouldn't mind going there again, anytime."

"Calm relaxing weekend"

"We really enjoyed our stay, beautiful surroundings, very clean. Good family environment. Will definitely come back."

"We had a lovely time at Elandskloof in our luxury chalet. We had everything that we needed to look after ourselves in the unit and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

I'd recommend taking some bottled water for drinking as the fresh spring water may not agree with all constitutions. more

Using the heated swimming pool and jacuzzi was particularly decadent."

"Lieflike uitsig, pragtige damme

Ablusieblokke kort dringend aandag of net 'n baie goeie skoonmaak en sal ook beter vertoon. Breekware in rondawels kort aandag."

"What a great experience to stay on a working farm, and see the farmer go up and down feeding his animals and daily chores. The Elandskloof valley is absolutely breath takingly beautiful. It was our first time trout fishing in the many dams, we also enjoyed the horse ride."

"It was a most relaxing weekend, pity about the wind ans lack of catching a fish, but it was a good weekend."

"Thank you to all the staff and owners of Elandskloof Trout Farm. It was a fantastic stay. We will definitely be back."

"Was baie lekker, sal weer kom!! Groete."

"We had a lovely stay at Elandskloof.

Very friendly staff."

"Highly recommended. We had a great time in a safe and secure environment. My eight-year-old especially enjoyed the ostrich and the donkeys that were walking freely between the bungalows and chalets. Will definitely visit again."

"Dit was 'n baie lekker naweek - ontspannend. Dit is lekker as mens sien dier en mens kan wel saam wees. Ons seun het die visvang vreeslik geniet en dan natuurlik die swembad wat onderdak is. Ons sal defnitief weer soontoe gaan. Dankie baie.

It was a great weekend - relaxing. It is lovely to see that man and animal can live together. Our son terribly enjoyed the fishing, and naturally also the covered swimming pool. We will definitely return. Thank you."

"Ek was baie ingenome met die plekkie. Ons het baie lekker geslaap en die mense is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ek sal weer en weer soontoe gaan.

"Ek was baie ingenome met die plekkie. Ons het baie lekker geslaap en die mense is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ek sal weer en weer soontoe gaan.

Net een negatiewe punt, die warm water swembad is baie aangenaam maar daar moet warskuwings borde op gesit word dat die warm kook water aan die onderkant van die trap uitkom. Ek het my kuit amper verbrand met die kookende water.

I was very impressed with the place. We slept really well and the staff are friendly and helpful. I will return again and again.

A small negative aspect, the heated swimming pool is very pleasant but a warning board should be placed stating that the boiling-hot water runs into the pool at the bottom of the stairs. I almost burnt my calf on the scorching water."

"We stayed at Elandskloof for four days in the farmhouse which sleeps 11. The furnishings were acceptable, but what made the holiday really good was the scenery, the affordability, the helpfulness of the staff, the heated swimming pool and the fly-fishing. A great place to unwind and relax."

"It was fantastic, excellent service, accommodation is top quality.

We really felt at home"

"_it was pleasant except for the spiders in the hut; we did enjoy it! loved the views and sites. when the power failure struck all was extremely dark but fun_

Z't :-) and even the ouma and oupa from Netherlands enjoyed it "

We could've played cards or read something (I don't mind that there is no TV) if there was a fireplace!! We booked out a day earlier and went on with our tour. "

"Dit was elke sent werd. 'n Onvergeetlike vakansie. Die omgewing, die natuurskoonheid, die plaas, die rustigheid, die gasvryheid, alles was in een woord net fantasties. Ons sal beslis weer terug gaan en kan dit beslis vir enige persoon aanbeveel wat van die natuurskoonheid en rustigheid hou. Baie b..."

"Did not catch any trout, but the location made it worthwhile!!!"

"Simplistic and serene!"

"Thank you for a wonderful get away will definitely return "

"Elandskloof is stunning, and there is a lot to do for a family, it was peaceful and just what we looked for, the animals are all so tame and the donkeys, geese, ostrich came right up to the children and was very gentle, really a big treat. The establishment in general is very tidy and well looked after but I was not so happy with the chalet (accommodation) as I had a crawling 11 month old and the chalet was not clean, there were a lot of spiders and cobwebs, I was very uneasy at night, it was very old but I see they are busy renovating and the new chalets looks much better, they also used that photos on the website, so pictures can be very deceiving, but we still enjoyed the stay and would go again, but stay in a newer Chalet."

"We arrived late the evening, they waited for us and got a friendly welcome. The atmosphere was great, it was quiet and the place was kept neatly. We had a lovely time and would definitely make use of their fantastic services again."

"The accommodation was what we expected, the service was excellent, the place is kid-friendly and it’s affordable. We've stayed at Elandskloof many times, enjoyed it and will always revisit. I can definitely recommend."

"It’s a lovely place. It was quiet, the venue is away from the city and the place is situated in a beautiful area. I will recommend and would certainly go back."

"The owner Celeste was extremely friendly and gave us really good service. The surroundings was admirable especially the view of the lake. The chalet was cosy and felt homely. Our stay was wonderful."

"We have been to Elandskloof many times before and the atmosphere is always great. The place is clean and room service is on point. I enjoy fishing for trout in the Dam and its a great experience for me. I would recommend and would definitely be back."

"What a beautiful farm setting to relax in! Loved the view, the sheep and all the farm activities."

"The place is spacious and the service was very good. The room was well equipped and met our expectations. It was a nice experience and we`d would go back again. It’s also highly recommended."

"I must say we had an excellent stay, everything about the place is on point. The service was fantastic and I will make use of the establishment again."

"My stay was good, There was no other problems. The rooms was neat and comfortable and the kitchen was clean and had everything you needed."

"We stayed in a rondaval and we found it clean and pleasant. It was situated on a working farm away from the main farm buildings and is part of a mixture of accomadation including a caravan park Close to Dullstroom so one had the added bonus of the lovely town.

"Great surroundings and location. Nice mountain biking. Lots of trout fishing available. Will definitely stay there again."

"My stay was very good, I have already recommended this establishment to various people. I will surely be back re-visit."

"My stay at this establishment was amazing. The rooms and everything in the room was clean. The scenery and atmosphere was peaceful. I was very pleased with the service I received and will definitely make use of this establishment in the future. Highly recommended."

"Could not have imagined a better way to enter 2016... Breath-taking scenery, roaming animals, fresh air, it is heaven on earth for children and adults alike.

"Could not have imagined a better way to enter 2016... Breath-taking scenery, roaming animals, fresh air, it is heaven on earth for children and adults alike. The short hike to the quaint little waterfall was just enough to make you appreciate the cool water and the kids loved playing in the stream.
When my three novice little fisherman weren't busy trying to land a big catch, they were in the pool, or on their bikes and did not once utter the words "TV" or "I'm bored".
The pool is covered, heated and has an incredible view!
Farm animals roam free and we befriended the local donkey whom the kids lovingly named "Dave"
Accommodation in the chalet was basic but clean, the units are serviced, and only a stone throw away from the dam.
The power outage we had the last night just added to the ambiance and I would not hesitate booking at one of the units without electricity next time.
I can't help but think this part of Dullstroom must be what heaven looks like.
"

"When I entered for the 10 km marathon and booked my accommodation I never in a month of Sundays could have guessed the beauty and serenity of Elandskloof. Accommodation was practical and very clean. Ablution blocks always had hot water and were regularly serviced because of the race. "

"The service was very good and understanding. Room nice and cosy with very helpful staff.
Dams looked very nice as well and well stocked. Will go back.
Roads are sand and well kept for all cars.
Office is also very frendly and understanding.
Thanks"

"A little piece of heaven. Quiet, beautiful, everything you need when you want to take a break from your busy life. Friendly service. Thank you for a wonderful stay."

"We had an absolutely fantastic time here. The place was so neat and clean. We had no problems at all. We definitely want to come back in Winter so that we can catch some fish."

"My stay at Elandskloof was excellent. They were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious and clean. I will recommend them to others."

"I had a great stay at Elandskloof. It was nice to be outdoors and in the fresh air. The rooms were clean and spacious. I will recommend them to others. "

"Waar is dit anders so rustig. Afgesny van als. Heerlik gerus, bietjie energie gemors om te prober visvang, glo nie daar is regte vissies nie. Ons luck nie in daarmee. Die volstruis en donkie het vir baie pret en plesier gesorg.

Where else is it so quiet. Cut off from everything. Visit was delightful, some energy wasted to attempt to fish, do not believe there is really fish. We were not so lucky. The ostrich and donkey brought a lot of fun and pleasure.

Will definitely go “visit” there again.

The rest of the weekend was just as good, the rooms were spotless and well appointed in a rustic way, which is exactly what you would expect at a Trout Farm in the Mountains surrounding Dullstroom.

I would recommend this Resort anytime"

"This was such a very nice relaxing place to visit. We loved it and will definitely recommend it to friends and family."

"We enjoyed staying at Elandskloof for this very first time, the surroundings are absolutely lovely, prices are reasonable, and accommodation was neat and tidy. Thank you for making a normal weekend a weekend to remember."

"We absolutely loved Elandskloof Trout Farm! We were only there for 2 nights, but it felt like we were there for a week! We loved the rusticness of having no electricity at our little house, and the openness of fields and dams! We will definitely be back soon!"

"We had a wonderful time at the farm. The staff are friendly and the establishment is really run well. This is a fantastic place for children as their are many activities to keep them busy - e.g pony rides, quad biking, jungle gym, swimming etc

The only item of concern is that the luxury chalet does not have a fireplace indoors and the unit is fully tiled which would be very cold in the middle of winter.

This is a really relaxing environment to unwind from the city stress..."

The accomodation although rustic was fantastic. The setting of the resort was just what we needed.
