    Nothing, we loved everything about our stay

    The views from the cabin are breathtaking. We loved the natural wood feel of the decor. Thought had been put into all amenities in the kitchen. It was so well kitted out

    Some milk in the fridge - even box milk would have been nice but plenty of fire wood was great!

    Truly beautiful location with a balcony overlooking the forest. Saw some amazing birds. Very peaceful

    The location is beautiful and the cabin fits perfectly with its surroundings, with plenty of character and charm. Peta gave us a warm welcome and was an absolute pleasure to deal with. There was an abundance of firewood, including kindling (which is rare). Beds were comfortable and the cookware, crockery and glassware are top quality (also rare). The view from the balcony is nothing short of spectacular!

    It would be good to have a small study table, even a fold up one for work. A bedside lamp would be useful in the second bedroom.

    Shawn welcomed us when we arrived and shared interesting information about the area, biodiversity and people. The cabin is more like a chalet. It feels safe and is fairly secluded. Very well equipped

    If I had to choose something, it would be the mirrored wall in the bathroom otherwise it was perfect.

    The utter peace and tranquility The evidence that the owners cared about their visitor's needs - there was even a Moka pot and ground coffee. The little quirky touches and the abundance of Firewood. I loved the walks, clearly marked and maintained, and of course the fact that there was no load shedding We will be back-up

    During rain the tin roof was very noisy causing most of us to lie awake. For the daily rate for self catering we expected the unit to be serviced (dishes and beds daily). Too few blankets in the unit despite reports of a massive cold front coming.

    Great location for exploring the Karkloof area. The Karkloof Saturday market and the Old Mushroom Farm were both about an 8 minute drive away, and even doing Nottingham road was easy from here. Lovely cabin, and nice indoor fireplace which was cleaned and prepped every day.

    Everything was super - even the cold weather was kept at bay by the little wood burner in the main living area.

    Location was beautiful and peaceful - we enjoyed the fabulous view across Karkloof every morning.

    We loved how intertwined it felt with the nature around us. A nice fireplace for when it’s cold and very comfortable rooms with beautiful views into the trees and over the valley. The kitchen was well kitted out and even had camp chairs for outside.

    Nothing at all, these guys are the best in terms of service etc. maybe provision of shower gel for those guests who might be travelling unprepared. 😊

    Perfect location.. [Hideout] The best place to disconnect with the reality and connect with nature in this beautifully designed cabin.! Sean is the best and well organised host!🙌 in vague reply’ , This was a lot more than our expertise and we enjoyed our time there. Great escape from the reality… So, peaceful’ you can even meditate and read your favourite book whilst overlooking the green mountains and vegetation. We enjoyed the two nights at this Cabin and it felt like heaven. The connection with the nature was one of the best things you can expect in this beautiful Hideout. 👌😊
