The house was perfect for our holiday. The fenced garden was so nice for our toddler and dog so we didn't have to worry about the water. A real highlight was swimming in the river. The big veranda was lovely for lazy afternoons and braaing. The beds are very comfortable and lovely linen and towels. The kitchen has everything you need. Best if all you feel as if you are in the middle of nowhere but there are shops and restaurants close by.

Beautiful house in a lovely location overlooking the river, clean and equipped with everything one may need, we’ll be back!

Loved everything about the place, everything is well thought, lovely quiet and peaceful surrounding. Place has everything you will need, and the things you never think of, they are there. Lovely host, goes over and beyond, really appreciated that, i will definitely be coming back.

We had a truly lovely stay at the stone barn. Much bigger than expected. Very relaxing atmosphere. Our favourite experience was going to the river within walking distance and had a lovely picnic and swim. Would definitely recommend the stay and would come back for sure.

An unforgettable stay at Hamstead Farm Eco and Pet-Friendly Cottage! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking mountain views and the abundance of birds and wildlife all around us—it truly felt like a peaceful escape into nature. Dianna was an exceptional host, always available with helpful suggestions for events and activities happening in the area, which made our stay even more enjoyable. A special thanks to Aathol as well, who went above and beyond by assisting us when we had trouble with a flat wheel—such kindness and hospitality made us feel right at home. The cottage itself was spotless, with top-notch facilities in excellent condition. Every little detail was thoughtfully taken care of, ensuring we had a comfortable and relaxing stay. We highly recommend Hamstead Farm to anyone looking for a serene getaway with warm, welcoming hosts. We can’t wait to visit again!

Loved our stay.

The place was so nice and the host was so accommodating to us showing up late! We were only able to enjoy the place for a night and wish we could have stayed longer! Great views and super clean--highly recommended!

We absolutely loved our time at Bianca’s place! The location of the home is spectacular, right next to the lake and very private. The home is spacious, clean and has everything you could require in terms of amenities. We had a lovely, relaxing family holiday here!

Our family had a lovely stay! The setting is amazingly peaceful with beautiful views of the river and surrounding hills. The cottage is very tastefully decorated—clean and cheerful, having everything we needed and the kids especially enjoyed exploring the grounds after a long day in the car. Niki is a very responsive and helpful host. Highly recommend this lovely spot!!
