“The perfect stop between Joburg and Kruger”
+Beautifully and comfortably furnished. Daleen made us feel right at home from the moment we booked. No major detour needed to get to this quiet and tranquil spot - with a magnificent and romantic dinner laid on alongside the open-air fireplace. Delivered more than we expected and set us up for the final leg of our journey. Thank you!
−No complaints unless you count the tiny frog in the bathroom!!! Which we didn't it added to the charm.

“Excellent”
+You can choose between a breakfast for an additional fee or a free simple breakfast. The latter was perfect for us as a EU continental family. Dinner can be booked on request and was the best we had during our three-week stay in South Africa. The place was super cozy for us and our two kids, ages 11 and 13. It's right in the middle of the Panorama Route, and we spent two full days enjoying the gorgeous views and sights. Beautiful garden where you can enjoy walking around, plus a magnificent terrace where you can sit in the morning and afternoon. After booking, there was clear communication about what time we were expected, etc. The rooms are furnished with great attention to detail and comfort. The beds were wonderful and the luxurious bathroom had a shower and bath with hot water. As we were traveling in winter and the accommodation is located at a high altitude, there was a good fireplace with plenty of wood to keep the room at a comfortable temperature. The owner was wonderful. Many thanks!

“One of the best in a panoramic setting!”
+This establishment is situated in the most panoramic setting with a tranquil garden wrapped around the guesthouse. Daleen is such a friendly host and went out of her way to make our stay special. The decor is exeptional and the linen of good quality. The kitchen is well appointed and the honesty bar is a bonus. This is a serene getaway that comes highly recommended.
−It will be nice to have mirrors in the rooms close to electricity sockets.

“Best start for our round trip through the north east of South Africa”
+We stayed at Ploughman‘s Rest for 3 nights and absolutely enjoyed it. The villa is very comfortable and nicely decorated. Daleen was just wonderful and spoiled us with a great breakfast and the best typical South African dinner every day. We enjoyed her ideas for exploring the surroundings a lot as well as talking to her about the farm. Ploughman“s Rest was the best place to start our roundtrip through the northeastern regions of South Africa. We would love to come back next time and highly recommend Ploughman“s Rest when visiting the Blyde River Canyon region
