Everything at the guest farm was in order. We experienced exceptional service and attention to detail. Units were clean and a healthy supper @ R250 pp were served by kitchen staff in our unit. Only problem was the remoteness of Pieter's farm. He gave me directions from Piet Retief, but I got lost twice before reaching the property on the Swaziland border. Badly potholed roads (not their mistake) My family had a quiet nights sleep, well rested thanks!

The perfect place to relax and unwind with family. The host and staff are so friendly. The comfiest beds in lovely rooms. Coffee and sugar provided. Meals are cooked on request. Lots of places to braai, fishing and watch the bunnies run around.

Just 18 km from Piet Retief (Mkhondo).Easy accessible. Beautiful place set in a valley. Has a swimming pool. Some animals for the kids to look at. Had a lot of fun, caught some bass and talapia in the farm pond. Excellent friendly service from staff. Will recommend this place to all my family and friends. Thank for a great weekend.

The road to paradise, a refuge, peace and calm often begins with a very hard journey first. Nothing comes easy and the roads towards the Guesthouse, and getting there were unacceptable, which is directly due to the South African government for not maintaining the infrastructure. Upon arrival, we were immediately received almost like family, not guests. Thank you to the the entire team, Tannie Anta, to Piet and all the wonderful animals and surroundings. It was the best night of sleep and rest of our entire trip to South Africa and I would recommend your place to anyone, anywhere and any time!!! Merci beaucoup!!!

Road there was horrendous. Booked 2 separate beds, got 1 double. Room was changed. Bathroom had no light. Shower was terrible. No power backup and no water in the morning so couldn't even brush teeth.

Emahlathini guest farm that i saw on the internet is not the same as the one we went for. Everything was so horrible, the service, the food, no network, dogs coming to our rooms. I don't think will ever visit that place.

This place is terribly run down and misrepresented. After a long journey down a dirt road the pool was broken and unswimable, the property was completely run down and a mess. The animal enclosures were horrific and dirty. After we expressed our discontent and moved to another location our card was still debited for the full amount. It was a terrible experience. The photos on the website must have been from years ago. I would look elsewhere.

WoW... from start to end. One beautiful, peaceful, rustic & enchanted place. The hospitality from the owner, son & staff was so endearing, the food was to die for!!!!!! This was most definitely the most memorable getaway my fiance & I have which will last us a life time. The solitude, fresh air & tranquility was awesome. The facility was just absolutely great

This place is falling apart, the electrical connections are unsafe, the only thing that is working in this place is the pool and the TV. It is dirty and definitely not as advertised or presented on the photos - there is no deck anymore, the pool table is broken and there is only 1 que, frogs in the basin, lights are falling out of the roof, the shower is moulded, the geyser is hanging on threads as it is rusted through and leaking - I requested my money back with no luck or assistance - just a stuff you! This place should not be made available to the public as it is unsafe - almost all electrical sockets / wiring is exposed. You can’t even open the blinds for light to come in, as they are also broken (85%). The beds are nice though. I have photos to proof the state of this place.
