• Serisha (8/5): -
• Karen (8/5): THE SCENARY IS BEAUTIFUL. THE STAFF ARE FRIENDLY. THE CHALETS ARE CLEAN BUT SMELL OLD. - GREAT SPACE AND GOOD VALUE FOR MONELY THE CHALET SMELLS MUSTY AND OLD. THE RESTARAUNT TOOK A REALLY LONG TIME TO SERVE OUR MEALS, YET THERE WERE ONLY 2 OTHER FAMILIES PRESENT IN THE RESTARAUNT. IT WAS A QUIET TIME
• Pillay (8/5): - The nature They need better heating systems in the accommodation because it gets very cold and there price for wood is extremely expensive
• Sikhumbuzo (10/5): -
• Koekemoer (1/5): -
• Ridhwan (5/5): - Peaceful Chalets are still old. Not renovated after so many years of us visiting there
• Zakariyya (6/5): - Great location, good views Needs a lot of TLC.
• Mandy (5/5): - The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. If it weren't for the staff, this facility would have no customers. Holes in curtains, mold from condensation on back of curtains, broken blinds in kitchen, stained duvet cover (which they changed as soon as we told them), old couches that you just sink into (no stability), and was told that we couldn't have a fan because they didn't have enough to accommodate all the units.
• Jonathan (7/5): - The chalets were nice The fact we had no water the whole time we were there which meant no showers and baths lucky were only there for a night
• Khan (8/5): Midlands getaway for family birthday - Safety for our children was good we knew they were safe. This is a great fear when kids wonder off. They enjoyed horseriding and walks to the stables The pool area could be neater and better maintained with staff on duty. We were there with our children but lots of ppl just send their kids and we cannot tell them what to do your staff can. Also judging from your bookings the shop needs to be updated and well stocked. There's no places nearby to shop so the estate shop needs a revamp.and the shop cannot be a reception...you need to work on this and the reception to your premises
• Yougeshan (8/5): Lovely stat - Absolutely friendly staff makes family time enjoyable. Great activities for the kids and adults No internet access

• justin (8/5): great stay, and nice family outing, needs some better ,maintenance - Good value for money, friendly staff, and great atmosphere great staff, good facilities, maintenance on the unit was not great but ok, patio handrails where rotten and had screws stick out being a safety risk for our toddlers, chairs on dinning table needed some work, but generally good. We always enjoy our stay at saddle and trout and have stayed in a few different units, and always found maintenance was not well taken care of. We will be back despite the maintenance

• Shailen (10/5): -
• ishwar (10/5): - Unit 15b Perfect Location Staff absolutely amazing ,helpful and always with smiles. They made us feel at Home We couldn't fault anything about our stay
• Amaran (10/5): -
• Divaran (1/5): Misleading advertising . Definitely daylight robbery - Absolutely nothing Absolute disappointment and misleading advertising Everything was a disaster Requested for a baby cot They approved it but no actual cot was given. And even after telling the reception/staff nothing was done The actual property is run down and unkept The staff can’t do much to help The restaurant food is overpriced and not good at all No wifi in chalets No heaters or aircons for chalets Furniture falling apart Couches and beds stained Leaking taps Showers flooding Because of drainage issues and a whole lot more Doors don’t lock or shut properly or don’t even close at all. So many pictures but unfortunately not allowing me to post more than 4
• Michelle (8/5): -
• Shahira (10/5): - Very beautiful views , and we were near the stables this time so it was a bonus.Very clean and peaceful. I didn't like the fact that if we didn't hear the housekeeper knocking,that they would enter with their own key.It was a bit odd because valuables or other things could of been left out etc. And the pond being under construction, we were told we could fish in the pond next to it which was boring considering it was stocked up with baby bass, and they didn't really put up a good fight.
• Haike (10/5): -
• Pralesh Maharaj (8/5): -
• ishwar (10/5): Home Sweet Home - The Most Perfect Location 15b Everything was Perfect
• Steve (6/5): - The view was excellent , and the horse riding was also very nice.
• Tania (8/5): I have stayed there several times and have never been disappointed. - "Sporting" facilities, peaceful location The weather was hot and humid with no wind resulting in the bedroom and lounge being hot. Air conditioners would be first prize but ceiling fans are a necessity.
• Sharadene (3/5): -
• Renolan (10/5): - Superb Excellent N\a
• Renolan (10/5): - Clean environment Friendly Breathtaking views Sliding doors could do with padlocks or additional latches for safety
• Instant Turf cc (5/5): Peace and quiet - Reception welcome Slow service restuarant
• Raeesa (7/5): -
• Thabo (4/5): - NOTHING NOT FLEXIBLE LIKE THE OTHER RECEPTIONIST, THE GUY WAS MORE UNDERSTANDING , TO BE SPECIFIC LIKE SHIFTING THE DATES. SO SINCE THEN I DONT BOOK MIDLANDS SADDLE TROUT. COS I HAD PAID FOR 5DAYS AND STAYED FOR TWO NIGHTS, I REQUESTED WAY BEFORE I WENT TO SLEEP OVER BUT WAS TOLD THAT THEY MANAGER WILL COMEBACK TO ME, MIND YOU I WAS NOT ASKING FOR REFUND, BUT MY OTHER DAYS TO BE SHIFTED. THATS IT I AM NOT HAPPY AS I WAS ROBBED MY DAYS.
• Kyra KiKi Naidoo (6/5): -
• Zakia (1/5): Extremely disappointing - Very poorly kept resort. Not clean. Everything broken in the games room. Real waste of my money. Everything
• Hannes (7/5): -
• du Toit (5/5): - The staff was very nice The restaurant was not nice at all didn't have a lot of options not willing to comprise. The place it self needs alot of attention. Not the same as when I was there 10years back
• Vijay (8/5): -
• Rachael (8/5): -
• Nzama (8/5): - Whole staff was very welcoming, we enjoyed games with Clive. Horse riding was great, I learnt how to ride a horse. You pay extra for activities.
• Phelelani (7/5): - View Blinds needs some work
• jessica (7/5): -
• Pillay (7/5): Honest opinion. - Everything was good. Game room needs alot of attention . Upkeep on the property needs a little more tweaking to get it top level.
• Mluleki (9/5): -
• Ellisha (8/5): Saddle and Trout Experience - Quiet, peaceful, The view The accomodation could do with an upgrade, especially the couches(had no back rest pillows) and the outdoor patio furniture. Crockery could be more expansive and shower could be more functional. Small shower space with shelving inside the shower in an awkward position.
• AshinaR (8/5): Midlands Weekend - Large open spaces, fresh air and beautiful horses,our family always enjoys this lovely resort. The chalet is always homey and comfortable affording us a wonderful night's rest. My kids love the horses, the games room, bicycles and other amenities. After the thunderstorm at Dawn on Saturday morning, there was an electricity outage until late in the afternoon. This was no fault of the resort as it was being managed by Eskom but it did put a damper on our getaway. The resort did provide a gas stove in the chalet so we were able to prepare meals. Price of firewood at R100 a bag.

The man who took us for the horse riding was super friendly and good to us and the horses. Fantastic. The meals for dinner were very small. My husband ordered fish and chips and realised he was starving still after and ordered pizza to take back to our sachet. Just maybe to make a larger option.
