"It nice getaway place to relax with family. We had a good time. We will definitely come back. "
"We were a group of 11 friends visiting Schoemanshof over the weekend. Kruisbessie is a beautiful wooden house with ample sleeping space for everyone. The kitchen is very well equipped. The only thing that Kruisbessie didn't have was a coffee plunger (but we always take one with.... just in case).
"We loved the view and the proximity to the river. We loved going for walks on the farm and sitting around the fire at night. We would definitely like to visit again."
"Wonderful! We would definitely go back again. "
"Our stay was very nice. "
"What a hidden gem! We loved this special place. Thanks you."
"We wanted a place where our whole family of 10 could go and where we had our own space away from it all. Exactly what we got. The house is a beautiful rustic haven. Loved the kitchen area. Everything we needed was there from the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms to the tv. You can fish too. The staff on..."

The houses were well appointed, very clean, and it was clear that a lot of thought went into the design and furnishings. The setting is spectacular, and Schoemanshof comes highly recommended if you..."

"This is a beautiful place, but you must go in summer to enjoy it more. We will be back soon."
"We had a truly lovely time, although next time we'll go in summer when we can enjoy the outdoors and the river to the fullest. We stayed in Doppruim and the house had everything we needed. "
"We really enjoyed our stay. So close to nature. The little house is simple, but very beautiful. Will definitely go back."
"We were a group of 11 friends and colleagues that enjoyed the weekend at Schoemanshof in kruisbessie. The view was great, the area was calm and it is a great place to go and just relax. I would recommend it to groups of friends or family between 10 and 14 people."

"We were 11 ladies that went to Schoemanshof. Every single person was impressed when they walked in! We had such a stunning weekend!

more"Beautiful and tranquil, we had a fantastic time and will definitely go back."
"This is one of the best places I have ever stayed at. The unit is clean and catered for all our need, and then some. I would highly recommend it to any large family or just a group of friends looking to get away. I am already planning my next trip back"
"We had a super relaxing weekend with friends at Kruisbessie at Schoemanshof. It has a great atmosphere due to the thatched roof and the huge deck with braai. The house is well equipped and the bathrooms are beautiful (bring a bottle of bath foam and tea lights). For kids it is an excellent mud fight..."
more"Kruisbessie was the perfect place for the boys night out. We were 14 guys celebrating a bachelors. There is paradise and then you have Kruisbessie. It was unfortunate that we did not get to meet with the hosts as we had arrived a bit late. But i must say everything at Kruisbessie was setup for our a..."
more"Schoemanshof accommodated our large group (9 adults and 6 children) with ease. The large stoep is the ideal spot to relax after a long day of fishing - that's good too- and everyone, including the children, enjoyed the stay immensely.
My five-year-old was in tears when we told her on Sunday m..."
"We had a restful weekend in lovely surroundings. Will definitely consider returning. The cottage was basic but charming and adequately equipped. The natural environment is surprisingly beautiful and the farm atmosphere was very pleasant."
"We had a wonderfully restful stay in beautiful surroundings."
"Very pleasant accommodation and views with everything that you need right there. Location is perfect for a quiet getaway. The hosts, GP, Hesme and their dog, were friendly without being intrusive."
"It was a relaxing and peaceful place. Lots of fish. Also good to have seen the historic places on the farm. We will go there again - great hospitality."
"We had a great weekend at Schoemanshof with my 12 cousins. The venue is neat and tidy, fully furnished, it is indeed a home away from home. Great river view, peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Thank you very much, we have enjoyed our stay"
"Wens ek kon vir die res van my lewe hier bly!
Rustig, mooi natuurskoon en netjiese, skoon verblyf. Beste plek waar ons nog die jaar gebly het."
"We loved the whole set-up. The ambience of the actual place was stunning and the service was good. My husband and I are definitely planning on going back."
"The area is secluded. Being all by yourself and having privacy was just what we needed. I treated my wife for her birthday and she loved the accommodation. We had such a good weekend and requested to stay a little longer. It was a great stay."
"We enjoyed our stay at Schoemanshof. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The location is beautiful - hills behind and the river in front. It feels like the rest of the world just does not exist for the time you are there. "
"We had a very pleasant break-away with our friends and family. The house we stayed in called 'Kruisbessie' was well equipped for lots of people (14 max). The house and deck over looking the Vaal river are truly beautiful and the atmosphere pleasantly peaceful, with the only noise entering your ears..."
more"Was a very nice stay... Had a wonderful time... Will definitely come again and try the other houses."
"What a great relaxed weekend!!!
I was very surprised about this place as I only booked from the Internet and wasn't sure what to expect.
It is the cutest little house I have ever seen, it was very neat, clean and everything you need and very taste full.
We enjoyed the lapa as well as we..."
"A friend and I stayed in the one room Kolegusrus cottage at Schoemanshof. It was completely tranquil. The only noise came from the prolific bird life and the river running below the lapa.
The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and the little extras gave it a 'home away from home' feel. It ..."
"We were fortunate enough to find the Kollegrus house available for a weekend at Schoemanshof, a quaint little house with a nostalgic resemblance to the late 1800's, built between tall thorn trees and neatly trimmed lawn overlooking the Vaal River. The house has a fully equipped kitchen with all the ..."
