Beautiful scenery.We had a great time relaxing and staying. The cottages are on a beautiful farm and it was really just a pleasure to stay there. Lochner quickly solved our gas geyser problem. We will definitely stay with them again - and this time we will take our friends with us!
Peaceful relaxation space.Tailswaai met all our requirements. Parents could visit and everyone could play on the wonderful lawn. Stargazing was an unexpected bonus and we also had fun playing in the dam. Little kids could spread their wings. The team was wonderful and helped us quickly every time with a few small requests.
Peacefully cozy fantastic. Very peaceful, enjoyable, fantastic stay. Waking up to the silence of the farm was the best ever. Rain on Sunday made everything very cozy. Would love to book again.
Was a great experience being there. Would like to make a turn next. The place is very nice and quiet. Enjoyed a late evening braai with free firewood. Nice breeze from the mountains.
