    No water when loadshedding occurs (The host at least did let us know).

    Our host, Delyse, was very accomodating and kind. Dinner was superb! I loved the "Honesty Bar" area. We stayed in Room 5 and everything was very comfortable, with a modern rustic feel.

    Loadshedding is currently a major pain, and affects the flow of water in the accommodation, a better system to provide updates to guests around the schedule, or a way to keep water flowing when the power is off would be a welcome update. Maybe backup power for pumps and lights.

    The location is idyllic and pastoral; a relaxing environment in a farm setting, plenty of walking to do, and good opportunities to ride mountain bikes. Lots to keep young children interested while they explore in a safe space. Dinner was first rate, and reasonably priced. The break was pleasant for standard fare, good poached eggs!

    Although we loved the dinner that was organised for us, we would have liked to maybe have options to choose from instead of a set menu.

    We loved everything about our stay at Dalmore! The service was amazing, Delyse really helped us with organising our activities and looking restaurants in the area. The farm pets were very friendly and added to the farmy-feeling of our stay.

    Maybe the rental of mountain bikes can be introduced ? Or a boat/canoes on the Spioenkop Dam? When traveling from overseas it would be a big plus for the people staying at Dalmore.

    Loved everything, the food was amazing, and I loved the walks and views of cattle and space.

    • One-Bedroom Chalet - Cottage 3

    Everything was great! Very friendly and welcoming.

    This is my fourth stay at Dalmore Guest Farm - my previous three stays had been overnight stays and I so enjoyed the three nights (and days!) that I was able to stay this time. The perfect place to relax, unwind and reconnect with nature - I loved the herd of Nguni cattle that were in a field directly opposite my cottage, and the visits from the Dalmore kitties and dog. I had lovely walks to the dam, and a beautiful swim in the pool. There was a delightful Belgian tour group staying at the same time, and it was so great to see tourists back and travelling in our beautiful country. What wasn't so great was a couple of guys from Germany who stayed one night, had dinner and wine, and left very early the next morning without having paid a cent of their bill. I truly hope that Dalmore was able to track them down and that it was an honest mistake, but if not, this truly was disgraceful, especially when our hospitality industry is trying to recover after Covid, and when visitors from overseas have such a great exchange rate to work with for their holidays.

    On arriving, we were greeted by friendly staff and sense of calm in the air. The grounds were beautiful. Our 3 daughters (6 years and under) had the best time play with the animals (specially Wilson) , swimming and exploring on their own. Very safe location. The food offered was incredible and well worth the price. The dam 4km away is a good outing and a fun walk for the family, with horse,buck and cows to see along the way. The owners, Andrew and his wife, were kind and friendly, always available and willing to assist with any of our needs. Will definitely recommend for families looking for a peaceful getaway.

    The only downside is that you have to negotiate an unpaved road for 6 km to arrive, but if you drive carefully you will manage with a normal car.

    Very nice location, you can relax if you want, but also a nice base camp for hikes in the Dragon mountains. Breakfast (included) is excellent, but also the evening dinners (menu of the day) are always a pleasant surprise. The lodges are comfortable and spacey with a nice view over a meadow, where white herrons and Ibis feed.

    Be aware of the fact you're really in a farmers area. The farm is on a dirt road and for European principles a bit far out of Bergville and Winterton (if you would want to go there for quick groceries or easy dinner).

    The self catering cabins are really spacious and give you a feeling like coming home, also due to the fact the dogs and cats come to greet you frequently :) The pool area is super nice to end your day after doing some activities in the Drakensbergen. The bed was very comfortable. Owners are really friendly and quite funny with their communication on site.

    The network coverage was very poor and the fact that there are no generators installed for business purposes.

    I really liked the way the manager made us feel, she showed us around and made sure we feel free and comfortable, she even went abroad to notify us about the loadshedding and water schedule in Bergville.
