Guest Reviews
- RB (8/5): -
- George (10/5): - Spectacular
- F. (10/5): - Accommodatie voldeed aan alle verwachtingen. Zeer gastvrije hosts.
- Harry Pokker (10/5): Peaceful remote location, kind staff - Cameron, the owner was very cool and kind. His wife too. It is a remote location, very peaceful. Morning breakfast basket was very cool touch. Owner kindly let us do late checkout. The walls between rooms are not the thickest. One german gentlemen talked several hours with phonr and we could hear everything. Quite annoying.
- Carin (10/5): Whether you’re looking for a quiet getaway, quality family time, or just a reset in nature, this farm stay is a gem. We - The setting is absolutely beautiful, with wide open spaces, fresh country air, and stunning views in every direction. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying slow mornings was a true highlight. The accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Staff were so accommodating to our needs and our family. Nothing - the stay was perfect
- Jacqueline (8/5): Bucolic scenery - Big rooms complete with small kitchen and fridge. Very quiet and in a beautiful setting. Nice and very generous breakfast basket and dinner options. Some rooms had heaters but there was no heaters in our room. However there was a fireplace that we made use of but it didn’t quite suffice to warm up the place and keep it warm until morning. That being said, there were ample blankets available to stay warm. Note that it was particularly windy when we stayed.
- Xpotential (10/5): Exceptional! The most wonderful & peaceful farm stay, abundance, friendliness, lots of love! - The fresh farm breakfast basket was such a lovely surprize! What a lovely alternative way of doing. And the abundance was exceptional. The home cooked meals & fresh baskets which can be ordered is such a great idea, no need to go anywhere. Quality of food is exceptional, and again, abundance.
Loved the fireplace, and the private braai provided on your doorstep.
Rooms & amenities of exceptional standard.
The farm atmosphere was fantastic! Beautiful farm animals & wildlife.
A definite recommend for a peaceful getaway! Nothing
- Barbara (10/5): Very accommodating! - Very friendly staff! It was perfect for us!
- Fabian (10/5): -
- Janelle (10/5): Home away from home - It's a beautiful, well-kept farm perfect for a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the world. The breakfast basket and burgers basket were delicious! It felt like home
- Kate (10/5): The accommodation is like a five star hotel, only better, with amazing attention to detail. - Beautiful location; peaceful; excellent breakfast. Nothing.
- Natalie (10/5): -
- Anastasia (10/5): Отличная ферма, с потрясающим завтраком и неповторимой атмосферой! - Очень отзывчивый персонал, который помог организовать сюрприз моему мужу на день рождения. А какой вкусный завтрак! Фермерские яйца, гранола, йогурт, фрукты, сыр, салями и черри с огорода. Свежий хлеб! Шикарно!!! Да и в принципе все понравилось! Отличные номера, удобная кровать, а атмосфера ‘домика в деревне’ вообще бесценна! Вид на осликов из окна шикарен. Все очень понравилось!! Обязательно вернемся;) Не хватило освещения в кухонной зоне, непосредственно над рабочей поверхностью.
- Samantha (10/5): -
- Susan (9/5): Excellent and exceeding expectations - hoping to return soon - The room and facilities exceeded my expectations, the option to order an evening meal was well presented, all the food was of excellent quality and the check-in/check-out interactions friendly, helpful and professional. The accommodation is located on a beautiful working farm which shares an access road. The road requires minor maintenance after the recent rains in the area. This is, however, a minor suggestion and did not detract from the stay and experience.
- Stef (9/5): Zeer mooi gelegen locatie! Zeer lekkere baskets. - Leuke locatie op een mooie rustige plaats geleden. Alles is aanwezig voor de kinderen om het naar hun zin te hebben, de zeer lekkere baskets die je kan bestellen zijn voorzien van alles wat je nodig hebt. We hadden deze plaats gekozen om na onze landing in Kaapstad even tot rust te komen.
- Wolfgang (10/5): Toller Aufenthalt nahe Stanford - Freundlicher Empfang; sichere Umgebung; schöne Farm mit verschiedenen Tieren; geräumige, stilvoll eingerichtete und sehr saubere Suite; Kühlschrank als Honesty Bar mit verschiedenen Getränken befüllt; Parken direkt am Haus; umfangreicher Frühstückskorb mit farmeigenen und regionalen Produkten; großzügiges und schmackhaftes Abendessen und auch Braaipaket auf Vorbestellung gegen Gebühr; Großer, sauberer Pool; schön angelegter Dam. Wir hatten einen gelungenen Aufenthalt. Nichts
- Johan (9/5): -
- Nia (9/5): -
- Dagmar (9/5): Wir haben uns rundherum wohlgefühlt. - Ruhige Lage, gemütlich eingerichtetes Appartment, toller Pool, zuvorkommender Gastgeber
- matthias (10/5): Traumhaft!!! Wir kommen gern wieder! -
- Carina (8/5): -
- Toni (10/5): Peaceful farm getaway with beautiful accomodation and fantastic food. - This is a beautiful farm , very peaceful with good walks up to the dam, serviced rooms and a lovely pool. The food that they offer is plentiful and delicious , definitely something you should pre order for a night. They also offer good braai options. Everything is lovely
- Michelle (10/5): -
- Christina (9/5): -
- Marc (10/5): -
- Meera (9/5): Amazing farm stay - The accommodation was comfortable and clean. Rooms are spacious and well maintained. Appreciate that provision was made for mosquito repellent too! Rooms are cleaned daily.
All necessary toiletries and kitchen equipment were provided. Accommodation even had an air fryer which was a huge plus. Bed was a bit worn and sagging a bit.
- Marc (9/5): -
- Laura (10/5): Connect with nature, slow down, relax and breathe. - Disconnect, relax and breathe.
Comfortable beds. Outstanding food and service.
We loved the vegetable garden, where we were encouraged to pick and eat ourselves.
Cameron and the team really have an excellent experience prepared for you.
- Guenter (10/5): Schöner Aufenthalt auf einer Farm - Schöne Unterkunft mitten in der Natur. Es gibt jede Menge verschiedene Tiere auf der Farm. Das Frühstück wird morgens um 8 Uhr in einem Korb gebracht. Empfehlenswert speziell für Familien - Tiere, ein weitläufiges Gelände und ein großer Schwimmingpool, es gibt viel zu entdecken!
- Katie (10/5): Everything wonderful. Property, staff, food, location! Ordered food to BBQ… simply Devine!! - Everything. Just marvellous 🤩 No AC in the unit we were staying in
- Andrea (10/5): - Es war wieder wunderbar entspannend in der White water farm.
- Oscar (9/5): Fantastisch hotel op een prachtige plek - Prachtige omgeving. Wij verbleven in her gigantische farm house. Ruim en smaakvol ingericht. Er is een airco maar op warme dag ontbeert die wel wat kracht om de slaapkamers goed te koelen
- Heinz Günter (10/5): Würde immer wieder gerne hier ein paar Tage verbringen. - Sehr schön gelegen und ruhig. Nichts!
- Oliver (10/5): - Hier hat es uns gut gefallen, der Obst Gemüse Garten war auch schön
- Jacob (10/5): Excellent. - Excellent location. Wonderful rooms. Very big. Excellent breakfast. Love the animals on the farm. Excellent cheese and wine platter in the evening.
- Mona (10/5): - Super schöne Farm mit Liebe zum Detail. Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt und das Frühstück war sehr lecker
- Maryse (10/5): -
- Bert (9/5): Wij komen zeker terug. Aanrader! - De prachtige inrichting.
Vriendelijke mensen. Top ontbijt!
Heerlijk zwembad. Alles klopte.
- Ju-Né (10/5): -
- David (10/5): -
- andreas (9/5): - Perfect stay to relax in nature,
great service and hosts !
- Doris (10/5): Kleines Juwel in ruhiger Lage - Die Suite war äußerst geräumig und der Pool ausserordentlich groß und sauber. nichts :-)
- Rochelle (10/5): Lovely stay in a serene environment. - The facilities were great. Breakfast basket delivered to your room is absolutely genius. The access roads can be a problem in bad weather
- Clemens (10/5): Luxus trifft Idylle auf einer Südafrikanischen Farm - Diese Farm ist wirklich zu empfehlen. Es gibt jeden Morgen einen Frühstückskorb mit selbstgemachte Brot, frischen Eiern von den eigenen Hühnern, Saft, Wurst, Käse, Joghurt und Müsli. Milch ist bereits im Kühlschrank vorhanden und wird erst berechnet, wenn die tägliche Menge von einer Flasche nicht ausreicht (R14/ Flasche).
Man kann sich für R15 im Zimmer kleine Füttertüten für die Hühner, Esel, Schweine oder Alpaka nehmen. Das macht wirklich Spaß und die Tiere freuen sich auch. Man kann sich tagsüber wunderbar am Pool entspannen und abends kann man sich was in der sehr gut ausgestatteten Küche etwas kochen. Zum Kochen kann man sich in der Farm Kochkörbe bestellen. Es gibt Burger, Pasta oder Braai. Man bestellt den entsprechenden Korb per WhatsApp bei der Rezeption und man erhält gegen 17 Uhr den Korb mit allen Zutaten zu seinem Zimmer/Haus. Die Zutaten sind super frisch und sehr lecker! Wir können es nur empfehlen. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und wären gerne länger als 2 Tage geblieben. Wir hatten das Gatehouse und würden es immer wieder buchen. -
- Rhett (9/5): -
- Paul (10/5): Very enjoyable - Quiet and peaceful and clean and big. Nothing
- Horst (10/5): Outstanding Relax and enjoy nature - One of the best stays we had in South Africa. An amazing place, highly recommend if you are looking to relax and enjoy nature and animals. We were so sad leaving this place (oasis). The owner Cameron does really understand what hospitality means. Many thanks Nothing, all was perfect for us
- Rob (9/5): -
- Clemens (10/5): Excellent stay, highly recommended for families - The Dairy Suite was excellent for my small family (2 adults, 1 toddler) and made the stay very easy. The farm is very well kept up and the staff was exceptional. Lots of animals and wildlife on the farm, great with kids. Excellent stargazing during the night. A BBQ was provided and the farm offers to supply with grilling ingredients or they can also be purchased in the little town, which is 10km away. Breakfast was superb, farm to table. Highly recommended. Wifi was slow, but I guess that was also a good thing!
- Toni (10/5): Beautiful farm stay just outside of Stanford . - Beautiful location, sparkling pool and comfortable spacious room. The breakfast basket is excellent and they offer a variety of great food options .
- H (9/5): Hadden een heerlijke week - Heerlijk ontbijt. Prachtige kamer, en vooral dat heerlijke zwembad!
Groot gebied rond de boerderij om te wandelen. Er zijn ezels ,alpaca,s en springbokken. Niets
- Lawrence (10/5): -
- Diederick (9/5): Great place to stay with amazing breakfast included and nice food to order on the accomodation. Highly recommend. - Beautiful location, very quiet and amazing friendly staff. Great food to order, both ready to eat or braai/burger packages to cook yourself. Also the included breakfast is delicious with fresh fruit, yoghurt, granola, eggs from their farm and bread or croissants. Nothing
- Patrick (10/5): Very nice - Very friendly people, nice place. Good value for money.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
- Geert (10/5): - Vriendelijk en efficiënt ontvangst door alle medewerkers
- Erich (10/5): -
- Lauren (10/5): -
- Craig (10/5): Would love to come again, especially with our family. - Generosity !
In fact too much for late eighty year olds !
The “honesty” of the farm , the beauty of the surroundings. The buck, llamas and cattle.
And more . . . . Nothing reallly to worry about. There were a couple of small things but have been lost in the midst of all the good things !
- Shaun (10/5): The perfect break-away if you like to recharge in nature while having a luxurious/comfortable stay! - -Big and fresh breakfast portions and the fact that it mostly is organic produce
-Delicious brownies
-Ample wood to enjoy a fire in the cold evenings
-Animals on the farm
-Beautiful decor
-Spacious rooms
-Well equipped for multi-seasons with the big and warm beds, fire place inside etc
-Clean and quality bedding
-Perfect lighting in the rooms
-Most important - The beautiful views and tranquility -Hard to find something that can be improved but for someone that likes to braai, I think it would be great if there can be some combination of braai wood that makes better coles (eg Rooi krans or kameeldoring). Otherwise one bag of charcoal. That said, the Bluegum/eucalyptus wood is great for a nice social fire!
- Iris (10/5): - Es hat alles rundum gepasst, das Frühstück war sehr lecker, es gab alles was man braucht. Die Zimmer waren sehr schön eingerichtet, sauber und hell. Ein großes Badezimmer und ein netter gemütlicher Balkon. Da gab es nichts.
- Carolien (10/5): -
- Laura (10/5): -
- Rasim (9/5): - Приятная атмосфера и хорошие руководители и персонал Было немного мух когда мы кушали завтрак, но это пустяки
- Peter (10/5): It's a beautiful farm and we only wish we'd booked to stay another day. - The room and amenities included were wonderful. Such attention to detail. We loved the presentation & quality of the farm breakfast basket delivered to our room in the morning.
- Colette (9/5): Excellent welcome and reception with Natalie. Lovely cottage with good quality furnishings, great pool, walks, outside s - It has everything to relax and chill No hot water at the kitchen, us brits love to do the dishes although we appreciate one if the maids would do this
- Andreas (8/5): Für einen kurzen Aufenthalt in Ordnung - -Die Esel direkt hinter unserem Zimmer
-Der Pool und die Daybeds
-Einrichtung der Zimmer
-gut ausgestattete Küche
-gefüllter Kühlschrank mit Getränken gegen geringen Aufpreis Vermisst haben wir zum Beispiel Sitzkissen für die harten Holz- Stühle auf der Terrasse beziehungsweise einen kleinen Tisch.
Ausbaufähig, finden wir auch das Frühstück, ziemlich wenig Auswahl, eine Sorte Käse, eine Sorte Wurst, Tomaten, Obstplatte und acht kleine Scheiben Brot für vier Personen ist einfach zu wenig. Unsere Kinder mochten die speziellen Marmeladen wie zum Beispiel Orangenmarmelade und Pflaumenmarmelade nicht. Gerne auch etwas Abwechslung mit Croissant etc. zudem musste das Ei noch selbst zubereitet werden. Auf der Farm gibt es auch ein Restaurant, warum wird hier nicht ein Frühstück angeboten für alle Gäste. Das wäre dem Preis auch angemessen für die Unterkunft.
Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis im oberen Bereich.
Die Begrüßung beim Check in war sehr kurz und hektisch, da schon die nächsten Gäste angekommen waren. Hier hätte ich mir mehr Infos zur Farm und zum Zimmer gewünscht. Jedoch war der Gastgeber stets über Handy zu erreichen.
Wir würden das nächste Mal eine andere Unterkunft wählen.
- Faizan (10/5): - Picturesque. Peaceful. Relaxing. Clean and modern accommodation in rustic farm setting. Very friendly staff. Would have loved to stay longer. Our trip was shortened slightly due to overstrand fires, but the owners were very understanding
- Patrick (10/5): -
- Jonatan (8/5): - Great experience and very friendly staff
- Behrschmidt (9/5): - Best breakfast ever
Animals all around, springboks were very nice surprise
Nathalie was great host
Close to Stanford
- Per (10/5): -
- Rosemary (9/5): -
- Georgia (9/5): A beautiful, tranquil farm stay with thoughtful touches that we would happily return to, especially with family. - Beautiful, peaceful setting with stunning surroundings. The farm feels very special and thoughtfully done. We loved the little touches, especially the Build a Braai basket for dinner and the breakfast basket delivered in the morning, which made the stay feel relaxed and easy. The suite was lovely, and Cameron, the owner, was fantastic and very welcoming and helpful. We had a little trouble getting hot water in the shower, and it was quite warm overnight without air conditioning. These were comfort notes rather than major issues.
- Jenny (10/5): -
- Tobias (10/5): Wundervolle Farm - Eine wirklich schöne Farm. Wir haben uns sehr wohl in den Zimmern und auf der Farm gefühlt.
Tolles Frühstückskörbchen. Frühstück war völlig ausreichend, hätte für uns aber dennoch etwas mehr Gebäck/Brot sein können.
- Uli (9/5): Entspannt und komfortabel - Die Ausstattung, der Service, der Pool und die Tiere.
- Matthias (10/5): - Einfach toll;)
- Gerhard (8/5): -
- Carol (9/5): -
- Natalie (10/5): Ticks all the boxes - and even more! - If you are looking for an unpretentious and authentic introduction to rural South African life and hospitality, look no further. Arriving from grey, wintry Europe with a strong desire to leave city life behind, we were simply looking for a place to relax, unwind, and ease into the country without frills or fuss. White Water Farm delivered exactly that.
Set against the Overberg landscape, the farm combines natural beauty with real, down-to-earth charm. From our stoep we watched “fierce creatures” roam freely — springbok in the fields, baboons climbing the opposite hill, guinea fowl and hadedas passing by — alongside alpacas, donkeys, chickens, and cattle. Everything felt calm, alive, and grounding.
Hospitality: Exceptional. Cameron and the team genuinely care and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. A special mention of and thank you to Natalie, whose warmth and attention made our stay especially memorable.
Accommodation: Thoughtful and full of character. The interiors show a great eye for detail and eclectic touches, and the spaces feel immediately comfortable to the extent that we even joked about staying for good.
Food: Breakfast arrived each morning in a basket with fresh eggs, cold cuts, homemade jams, veggies, granola, yoghurt and cheese from the neighbouring dairy farm. The focus on local produce is something we appreciate especially. For dinner, there are several excellent restaurant options nearby. Also, ready-made sets are available from the farm to cook your own meals on premise.
White Water Farm is a rare find — authentic, generous, and quietly special. We hope to return soon. Nothing to fault.
Breakfast albeit very fresh, healthy and delicious could be slightly more varied esp. regarding cold cuts. After day 3 we would have appreciated something different.
- Nina (10/5): Sehr schöner Aufenthalt auf toller Anlage und stilvoller Unterkunft. - Die Anlage war sehr gepflegt und schön, toller Pool. Auch die Unterkunft war schön eingerichtet. Nichts, etwas mehr Geschirr könnte zu dritt in der Wohnung sein. Aber das ist kein wirklicher Minuspunkt.
- Debra (10/5): -
- Zoe (10/5): - We had a beautiful stay! Our little girls loved it, especially feeding the lovely farm animals every morning and dips in the pool! Breakfast is exceptional - I think the best I have ever had!!
- Devon (10/5): Amazing. Will definitely come back. - The guest houses are very nice. Modern, spacious, beautiful and clean. You really feel cosy and at home here. It also has a full kitchen. The breakfast basket that is left at your door in the morning was also amazing. After checkout we went to go feed the farm animals. The lighting in the bathroom can improve a bit. But no biggy.
Make sure you wake up no later than 8am on your checkout day. Because the breakfast basket are just ingredients. So you need time to make it yourself using your kitchen in your room. And you will still need time to toilet, shower, brush your teeth and pack up everything for a 10am checkout. We did it all by waking up at 8am. So maybe wake up earlier if you have children.
- Wayne (9/5): Luxury and tranquility - The rooms are just lovely. There is everything you need plus a fully equipped kitchen and a wells rocked fridge . The rooms have a balcony inthe front and in the back and both have lovely views . There are pigs, cows, alpacas and donkeys . A lovely vegetable garden to visit and a great spot for walks . Ther is also a superb pool area. The breakfast baskets are a must ! We lived everything ,
- Virginia MacKenny (10/5): Spacious, generous, friendly and beautifully farm orientated with fresh food and welcoming attitude. - Spacious accommodation includes a dining space (and hence a table where one can work), a spacious bedroom and a lounge plus two verandahs. Bed had good sheets and comfortable mattress. Breakfast was exceptionally generous, healthy and delicious. One can cook in the room with an induction plate so mega-quick and when the eggs arrive in the breakfast basket you can make them how you like them. The unique aspect here is that the establishment is clearly happy to encourage you to wander the farm and engage the animals - small packets of animal feed can be found atop the fridge for a minor fee - so you can go feed the donkeys, pigs or other creatures. all lovely
- Maloe (10/5): -
- Maria D (10/5): LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE - The environment, peacefulness, the animals. The food was spectacular. I adore this place and you should book it asap.
- Sebastian (10/5): -
- Pamela (10/5): An excellent 2night stay - The farm was easily accessible surrounded by beautiful mountains. The cottages had a small front terrace, inside a kitchen area, shower room, bedroom with a very comfortable bed and lively bedlinen and then a little sitting area overlooking the back garden which had a braai and two chairs.
The delightful donkeys came to have a look at us, and the alpacas were in another field nearby,
We had a breakfast basket delivered in the morning and ordered a braai basket and a burger basket for the nights of our stay.
Natalie was a wonderful host, so helpful, caring and knowledgeable about the area, so big thank you to her. Nothing to dislike
- Johanna (10/5): - Sehr schöne Unterkunft auf einer Farm. Ruhig und entspannt! Die Betten sind sehr bequem.
- Jolijn (10/5): Hele fijne locatie! We komen zeker een keer terug -
- Sanne (10/5): 6 nights at the white river farm was absolute worth it - The feeling of being on a farm (lovely animals, surrounding and the local products) and experiencing the luxury of the facilities as the pool and the design of the accommodation Nothing to say, all great
- Flick (5/5): We had what we needed. A quiet peaceful comfortable night. - Lovely room with plenty of space The air conditioning was very noisy and not very effective. There were no plugs in any of the sinks or basins, so washing dishes wasn’t easy without wasting water—especially since there was no running hot water and we had to boil a kettle.
The paving outside doesn’t appear to be cleaned regularly, as there were bird droppings, dust, and spider webs everywhere. The gardens also need some TLC. However, we did have a lovely, quiet night self-catering; it just feels like a little more attention to detail would make a huge difference.
- Noel (9/5): Un havre de paix . - La nature . Les équipements. Rien
- Geldenhuys (8/5): -
- Andrea (10/5): Ruhe zum wohlfühlen - Wir hatten das Gatehouse und es ist ein entzückendes Ferienhäuschen. Total gemütlich.
Der Kontakt vorab war perfekt und unser bestellter Korb mit Wein und Käse für ein gemütliches Abendessen auf unserer Terasse stand bereis im Kühlschrank. Tagsüber hört man die wenig befahrende Straße
- Kelisha (10/5): -
- Matthijs (10/5): Stunning farm! - Absolutely stunning farm, super friendly staff and delicious meals. We will definitly come back! -
