"Tranquillity"

20 August 2017

"Loved the luxurious bed and was blown away by the amenities. The kitchen was superbly equipped and the whole unit so spacious and clean . It is certainly a place to which I would love to return. The only drawback was the access road with the corrugations, but still worth the drive!"

"Relaxing stay"

05 December 2016

"We arrived at The Outpost down a pretty good dirt road in a normal car. On arrival one sees unusual looking cows and rocks and a green farm with blesbok eland ostrich and dams. Our unit the Fishermans was awesome and had everything one needs. Amanda was very friendly. Would definitely come back and recommend this place for anyone to stay at who wants to relax and have some time out. It is near Dullstroom which is also nice."
"Recharge and connect with loved ones"

"We enjoyed a night in the Fisherman's cottage and wow, it was a treat. Breaking away from all the business of the city, sitting on a comfy couch in front of the fireplace (we got a cold night, full moon in a gentle mist, looking out over the dam) ... Certainly lost track of time and just recharged. Our host, Amanda, was amazing. She responded promptly when I sent her a message. With us arriving quite a bit late, she was so accommodating and made sure everything was perfect when we arrived. The coffee for two and rusks was really special, thanks Amanda. Appreciated that you came and said hallo as well. Oh and sjoe, the next morning there was an Eland bull that came and said hallo to us (well at 20meters he was just showing off how beautiful he were) was so blessed. Really a beautiful place. The road to the farm: Would have easily been accessible for any sedan, roads on the farm itself was nicely kept. However the gravel road to the farm (Machadodorp road) can vary depending on the season, so if anyone reading this has low profile or small tyres please go slow. For the rest, just over 60km/h the shaking stops and its a smooth ride."

"Excellent stay, we enjoyed a lot "
"Lovely secluded getaway near Dullstroom"

08 July 2016

"I've stayed at several guest houses and chalets in Mpumalanga, and the Outpost is definitely the nicest. The houses are fairly generic on the outside, but large and beautifullly appointed on the inside. It's a little off the beaten path, but well worth the effort to get to. Little touches like rusks and coffee for morning make this a special getaway. Highly recommended. "
"Short pleasant break"

"Stayed at The Outpost for just one night, owners were very helpful with telling us where to fish and describing walks on the farm, nice roomy units, clean with wood and even hot water bottles for the cold winter nights!!"
"Clean and well equiped"

"We enjoyed our stay in Sara as everything was clean, well equipped and neat. Only criticism is that there are no fish in the dams. "
"Our experience at Die Stal"

28 March 2016

"We stayed at Die Stal for 2 nights recently. It was fully equipped, clean, comfortable, cosy, great for families. Only issues we had were all the flies. There were a lot of flies every day during the day and night. They left Doom but we were unable to use it as we have small kids and it is not safe to use around them. The wood they supplied was a nice idea but it was extremely wet, and took ages to start burning. Also the 2 bags we bought extra. The only other small problem was the farm workers who passed by the place frequently from early in the morning on their tractor. It can be disturbing when trying to rest. But overall a pleasant stay."
"Rus en vrede"

03 December 2015

"Ons het baie lekker hier oorgeslaap. Mens kan maklik ente gaan stap of selfs draf. Ons eenheid (Feathers) was skoon, gerieflik en groot genoeg (selfs al was ons net twee). Lekker om nie 'n tv te h nie sodat mens dieplaas geluide envols wat kwetter terde kan geniet. Mens kry nie sommer meerplekke soos die waar jy werklik rus en vrede kan vind nie. Ons sal slegs twee sake wil aanspreek: 1.Badkamerdeure is nogal noodsaaklik vir privaatheid2. Diehout wat voorsien was, was nat en het moeilik gebrand. Mens moet maar jou eie hout saamvat. Nie te min,verdien die plek myns insiens 4 sterre. Baie dankie!Hendri en Anneke"
