  "This clean, respectable and quiet spot was a treat to visit. The spectacular view of the magaliesberg mountains from our bedroom and stoep was a treat. The walking trails were a great addition. Jenny and Alan were very hospitable and the cleanliness and attention to detail was very much appreciated. A definite spot to visit again for a quick break."

  "We were blown away by how green the area was after some really good rains. The road leading to the lodge was a bit dodgy and we were a bit concerned about what we had gotten ourselves into, but there was no need to have worried. The accommodation was lovely! We had a wonderful stay. Jenny and Alan were perfect hosts and even managed to send us on our way with some indigenous plants to plant at home. I would recommend the Guest Farm to anyone that wants to get away from the rat race and just get back to nature."

  "I loved the peace, quiet and solitude. Accommodation very acceptable. Our hostess, Jenny, was simply amazing. I didn't like the poor condition of the farm road and the bugs and mosquitoes definitely did not enamour my wife."

• "Well above our expectations"

  27 June 2013

  "What we needed was a breakaway from a hectic couple of weeks and it was exactly that. It was a welcome switch from a hustle-bustle-life to a time-freeze (even if it was just for a weekend). We enjoyed supreme privacy for the entire weekend and were oblivious to any form of life even though we were on an operating farm. Such was the kindness of the hosts that they upgraded our accommodation for the weekend when they realised they were in a position to do so. The unit was modern, well-equipped and comfortable. The jacuzzi-bath was a lot of fun and the fireplace helped set a laid-back mood in the evenings. The setting in nature is unsurpassed resulting in spectacular dawns. We will no doubt do this again in future."

  24 November 2012

  "The cottages are very comfortable and very well equipped. The swimming pool is great for cooling off after a hot day. The peace and quite of the area is what makes a stay at Thirsty Falls so special. If you wish, you can be totally alone and see nobody else. What a relaxing experience."

• "Four days at Thirsty Falls"

  13 July 2010

  "We had a fantastic time at Thirsty Falls, Jenny and Alan were not only great hosts but great people and great company as well. Nothing was too much to ask for and in fact Jenny realised that us 5 male species needed to be looked after and that she certainly did, fantastic breakfast's and dinner's and Alan treated us to an exquisite Poitje dinner.Accommodation was comfortable, clean and roomy even with 5 of us. The views are the reason people will always come back to Africa and an added bonus was the two dogs (Cassidy and Rudy) who gave it the complete family feel.If anyone is in the Rustenburg area and they miss out on Thirsty Falls, well it's their loss, I will be back one day.Thanks Jenny and Alan, you have left a lasting memory for 5 very happy Aussie visitors.Brian"
