  • "Boschfontein stay"

    28 April 2015

    "We had a very relaxing stay at Boschfontein farm, in the chalet for 2 people. It is rustic accommodation with an outdoor kitchen using a gas fridge and oven, a 'donkey' boiler for hot water and a solar battery for lighting. The views are amazing and it was very peaceful!"

  • "Farm Stopover at Boschfontein"

    17 September 2014

    "A beautiful, tranquil place to stay. Old style farm hospitality form Louis Botha and his lovely wife.I stayed only one night but it felt like I have known the Bothas a long time. They went out of their way to make me feel at home, and Louis even took me for a drive to the far end of his farm, although this was not part of my reservation arrangements.My room for the night was comfortable and clean, and breakfast was super.I can recommend Boschfontein Guest Farm any time."

  • "Very nice cottage"

  • "Relaxing weekend in the Waterberg"

    10 June 2013

    "We stayed in the 2 - sleeper self - catering chalet up on the mountain in the middle of the bush. What a beautiful view of the Waterberg and the bush of the game farm! The rustic chalet is well equipped and the bed is comfortable. We loved relaxing on the stoep enjoying the view. It is also nice to walk around the farm. I fired up the donkey boiler, and in no time we had hot water for a bath and shower. The water remained hot until the next morning. The farm is also conveniently close to the Marakele National Park, which we visited on Saturday and Sunday morning. What fabulous mountain and bush scenery in the park! The accommodation at the farm is good value for money, we will be back!"

  • "Asemrowend!!"

    "Perfekte nag in die Bosveld - volmaan, vuur, stilte, natuurgeluide, buitestort... besonderse belewenis!!"

  • "Very private!"

    23 April 2012

    "Very nice secluded cabin overlooking valley. A little dark at night as no electricity and battery supply low. Host and hostess are extremely nice and go beyond the call of duty. It was interesting to be able to share their world. Thanks."

  • "Escape to the bush"

    02 January 2012

    "Our family of four really enjoyed this peaceful stay in a mountainside cottage. The view is fantastic. It is easy to take hikes and you can see zebra and different antelope. The cottage is very basic but does have everything you need. There is a nice swimming pool at the main guest house, about 3 km away. If you want a quiet bush getaway, this place is perfect and our hosts were very helpful."

  • "Christmas weekend"

  • "Boschfontein Guest Farm & Hunting Lodge"

    27 October 2008

    "If you need quiet and peace combined with excellent hospitality, visiting Boschfontein is a must. Shirley and Hilton, the friendly owners of this establishment, have left no stone unturned to make the visit by my wife and I a memorable experience. As a break-away weekend from the rat-race, I cannot imagine any better destination. The view from the chalet is exquisite and we were even entertained with a dinner and game drive by our hosts one evening without any additional cost. I have already made my next tentative booking!"
