Thabametsi Farm

An absolute gem for children. The staff are exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The animals are all gentle souls and you can pet them with ease and comfort

.

No breakfast or coffee shop as advertised animals and space was great

Massive fly problem could not enjoy the patio facility there were hundreds of flies obviously not the owners fault

we had fun with the kids. its a nice peaceful pace when you want to get away from the busy life of JHB.

Lovely place. Staff very friendly and helpful

The place is the best I've found for a stay with kids under the age of 10! The place has oodles of jungle gyms and kid obstacle course equipment, tractor rides, donkey cart rides (fun but fast!), and friendly farm animals including a curious fluffy sheep. The cottage we stayed in (Lavender) was very spacious and clean. Johannes was very welcoming and helpful during our stay

While they have a lot of kids equipment, some of it has definitely seen better days and is in need of TLC

The Idea behind this type of accommodation really is fantastic, its exactly what a family with kids needs and wants, the animal interaction is completely priceless. The idea behind the accommodation is set up really well.

The property is in dire need of a upgrade, I understand times have been tough especially for the tourism industry, but nothing that is advertised on offer is actually on offer. The staff were helpful to let my little one help feed the animals but no horse/pony/donkey/tractor rides available. Our initial dwelling we were meant to stay in had no hot water and we are very grateful that we were upgraded to a massive dwelling, but again a few things weren't working, no outside lighting, no gas for the gas heater, many lights weren't working inside, some electric blankets weren't working. They advertise for a massage, breakfast, fresh bread or scones etc but no one is available to order these things from. There is a sign for a farm shop but when asking if its open we were told it hasn't been open in a while. It was really sad to see as we would have loved to support this property more. We feel like this is a little untapped piece of heaven.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Going out of their way to assist and help. Beautiful setting. Peace and quiet.

The double bed was uncomfortable - not a proper double bed mattress. No extra blankets, which is strange for winter time. Interesting that mugs weren't microwave safe.
