"We stayed for 3 nights at the 2 bedroom Pretty Pig cottage. Despite the cold winter nights we werekept warm by the electric blankets and firestove. The cottage is situated next to a small dam and I can just imagine how gorgeous it must be in summer. Even in winter we saw many birds from our patio. The owners were courteous and friendly. The kids loved seeing chickens, sheep, cattle and horses. We loved exploring the small town which is close by.Beware of roadworks on the Standerton road from Johannesburg which added an hour to our journey. Rather take the N17 to Bethal and then Volksrust - or check with the owners."

"Braai on the stoop with your favourite tipple, look out over rolling farmland interspersed with small dams and sheep, horses and cattle grazing nearby, surrounded in the distance by hills and mountains, with the wind the only sound in the tall trees. With all the comfort of a well laid out and equipped fully functional cottage that is home for such a short the only regret is having to leave."

"Having travelled the world, I have never come across such amazing hosts as Johan and Ronelle.The thought that goes into making the difference in a holiday, comes naturally to them. I arrived as one only can from the madness of JHB and left with a calmness I have not felt for years.Every morning I was delighted by the beautiful sunrises and enamoured with the little town of Wakkerstroom which is steeped in history. The fact that we could take our dogs was a definite bonus.My 10 year old son claims to have had the best holiday of his life. I have with out a doubt left a little of my heart behind and cant wait to return in the summer."

"What a beautiful little piece of heaven. We only stayed a night much to our disappointment as we were in the midst of a long travel and needed a stop over for the night. The owners, Johan and Ronelle went out of their way to make our stay comfortable, thanks! Amazing touches that make the place magical- a smiling face on a willow tree, a swinging bench by the vlei...true hits with our little children. We would definately recommend staying there...and longer than one night if you can."


"Forellenhof"

(South Africa) Gerhard Pretorius

Lovely views from the stoep and although Wakkerstroom is only down the mountain, one can't see it, which adds to the ..."
