TESTIMONIALS

Esté Kaltwasser Fouché

We were very relaxed and not in for anything fancy or expensive. Beautiful views & calm surroundings. The only setback we encountered was that the gas for the warm water was finished after washing the dishes and the kids showering. They probably should have filled it before hand.

Despite being truly rustic, the cabins are well-fitted out with fine linen and everything, apart from a TV, thankfully, that you could possibly require for your stay. The owner/host, Kobus vd Merwe was hospitable, unobtrusive and available to personally sort out any minor problems that may occur. There are also campsites available, everything inclusive. You may also bump into their real-life local hero, a senior employee on the farm, who single-highhandedly rescued 2 men lost in the surrounding mountains, after a helicopter and official search and rescue teams failed to find them. This intrepid superhero responded to pleas from the victim's families and set out alone, accompanied only by his dog and his intimate knowledge of the mountains. He found them the following morning, literally close to death, after walking through the late afternoon and at night, by moonlight; one was unable to walk and the other in only a slightly better condition. They then had to start their long walk back. After each frequent stop they were forced to make, he first had to assist the one to his feet and then hoist the other onto his back. The 2 days we spent there, without a TV, were tranquil and soothing to our souls.

This place is a gem. Wooden cabins, rustic but totally well thought out and comfortable. A river flowing meters from the front deck. Water clean enough to drink or swim in! Kayaks. Braai heaven. Star gazing par excellence. Right in a beautiful orange orchard. This place is serene and the ultimate chill out. Thanks to Kobus for the friendly hospitality!

Very rustic little cabin nothing fancy but has everything you need. Situated in the most perfect spot next to the river. We enjoyed the star gazing at night and the absolute serenity is indescribable. Went canoeing up and down the river which was such a fun activity and great canoes to use as they are easy to steer and can take 3 persons per canoe. This was really one the best places I have visited to get away from everything and will definitely do so again. The owners where very friendly and helpful and only wish we could have staid longer. Stayed February 2015, travelled with family.

We stayed at Die Vlei and truly enjoyed the stay as there was allot of space around us with total privacy. Lovely homely bungalows that we truly enjoyed as the experience was natural silence. We had a swim in the river and i even hired a canoe and did fishing. Thanks Kobus we will be back. Regards, Werner

From Cape Town:

Take the N1 direction Paarl. Take the N7 turnoff (left) toward Malmesbury. Continue on the N7 for 175km. Take the turn-off right from the N7 highway towards Citrusdal. When you enter Citrusdal, stop at the first stop street and then turn right on Keerom rd and carry on driving for 23km. You will see the entrance to Die Vlei Campsite on your right hand side as it is a big white sign board on the right hand side of the road. Turn right there and drive straight down to river.
