"Great place to switch off"

"We enjoyed our stay at Pumula. Stayed in apartment 3 and it was great and really quiet. There were a few minor draw backs when we arrived, pots and dishes weren't very clean, while we also had to wash out the bath and shower.Though overall, we really enjoyed the time there, and the fact that you have a beautiful view and you can switch off from the hustle and bustle of work life, really helped.

Establishment Response:

We sincerely apologize for your bad experience."

"Aangename verblyf"

(South Africa) Mrs Terblanche

"Ons het heerlik op Pumula Guest Farm gebly. Die omgewing is pragtig, die diens voortreflik en die huisies gerieflik toegerus. Ek sal enige iemand aanbeveel om van hulle verblyf gebruik te maak. Drie dae was net te kort om alles regtig te ondersoek en waardeer.

We had an enjoyable stay on Pumula Guest Farm. The scenery is beautiful, the service outstanding and the cottages comfortably equipped. I would recommend anyone to use their accommodation. Three days was just too short to really examine everything and appreciate.

Our hosts Kevin and Guiletta were so accommodating and always ready to help with everything...even our 2 flat tyres. The foreman of the farm was always there to entertain the kids. The Bullnose House is a real gem and clean and very neat and cosy. Thanks so much for an unforgettable family weekend. Pumula provides farm fresh eggs, milk and rusks every morning - out of this world!!"

"This is a very well run establishment. Nothing is too much trouble - this is the first guest farm that I have been to that gives back to you. Free eggs, milk, wood and spotless accommodation. Whatever you need is there, including jacuzzi steam room. I will be back for sure. I have already passed the information on to some friends.

All I can is say fantastic, fantastic and special thanks to Guilletta for going out of her way to help us.

Fondest regards

The level of hospitality and cleanliness was excellent. We very much enjoyed the pleasant service from the staff, and the fresh farm eggs and milk we got every day. We have already booked our next trip! Nice touches were hot water bottles and blankets, as well as ceiling fans in the rooms."


"Gorgeous farm and lots to do"

(Australia) Mrs Hartmann

"Oh the serenity! Our family loved the farm stay with all the animals to pat (including the friendly dogs, peacocks and horses). We had a great first night stay on our trip from Johannesburg to East London. The pony rides were loved by the kids."

Our second visit to this lovely farm was even better than our first. It's a great part of the Free State with lovely sandstone mountains and wide vistas.

Guillietta and Kevin are kind, welcoming hosts, and of course the complimentary farm milk and eggs delighted our party. There is so much to do at Pumula. We got up at sunrise and took long walks before breakfast, but also chilled out in the clubhouse and round the outdoor pool and indoor spa bath. If Kevin's around you can learn a lot about how a farm operates, and enjoy his jokes.

We still haven't got around to the horse-riding, or done a trip to the ruined castle, or gone on the tractor rides, but that leaves us lots more to do next time. Spring is a great time to visit the farm. We saw three new foals, there were calves and lambs, and of course the friendly dogs who join you for walks and braai’s (barbeques). We just loved it there.

"Pumula Guest Farm a delight"

"What a pleasure visiting Pumula! The website pictures do not do justice to its charm, and don't show the rolling lawns around the guest cottages, or really explain the lovely clubhouse for visitors. And no-one mentioned the lovely lakes that we saw from our bedroom and patio. There was free firewood so we had roaring log fires outdoors every night as we watched the stars.
The cottage was well equipped, with the addition of fresh farm eggs and milk, and if we had wanted to, we could have picked vegetables from the garden.
Horses cropped the grass, and there were cows on the hillside.

Our hosts were friendly and helpful, and the cottage was decorated in true African handcraft style - attractive and ecologically sound. We didn't ride horses or do any of the numerous activities available for guests, but we just loved the place. Can't wait to visit again."

"The attitude of the owners was amazing nothing was too much trouble and they really paid attention to the little things that made us feel special i.e. milk eggs wonderful activities for the kids etc.

Although I think the rate was probably market related it is unfortunate that at R1600 a night for the unit we would not be able to afford that for an extended period of time. We would love to book a mid week.

We were referred to pumela by friends that had stayed there before and were not disappointed at all. Thank you for a lovely stay, we wish the farm much success."
