Apartments in Haenertsburg

Comfy beds! Everything you need is there.

Eva Biebuyck (owner) is amazing - she kept in touch...provided really good info on where to eat nearby, and for us (as scientists) the best birding locations. So this info is for birders to the area [keeping in mind that we visited December 8-12 (2025) - birding may be quite different at different times of the year]: The Knysna Turacos (up to 15) are active near the cottages most mornings starting at sunrise - that is your best time to get photos. In the afternoons, you will see them in the trees about 100-150 meters away - so get up early. Sometimes they come down to the water bath at the main cottage (about a five minute walk)...but set up early to shoot them when they come to the almost dead tree just outside the cottage. These turacos did not respond to sound...(2) Narina Trogon - very shy! Will respond to calls by calling from a distance...but this is the only way to get this species to come closer (or at least give a clue to where it is). There seems to be 3-4 individuals in the area of the cottage (when using sound). We had much better looks/luck in Tanzania with this species. (3) at night if you use calls, there are African Wood Owls - we had to play the call for 20 minutes before one finally came in (10pm) and perched in the almost dead tree. We got some superb photos...(bring a color balanced torch/flashlight). As for other birds - yes they are there but shy...you will need many days to get all the listed birds! And you will need to do a lot of footwork (plan on only hearing the Flufftails at dusk...Comasche (caretaker - a great guy) has set up a table with old chairs for you to sit at dusk. Indeed Comasche is your best source of info - make sure to ask him - he knows the place and its birds/mammals 110% and is happy to share info. Overall we had a great time - hot water is wonderful...Internet is superb...Kitchen has everything you need. Our only suggestion would be to have fans in the cottage: if a sunny day, the cottage does heat up by day!

It's definitely the place to go if you want to relax

Very clean and cozy! The outdoors are serene and peaceful and the cottage was well kept, comfortable and clean We visited Rondebosie Farm Retriet on 11th May (checking out on 12th May) The cottage was so cozy and had everything one could need. The lemons in the basket was such a great touch, as well as the Rusks provided with the complimentary coffees and teas The towels were so fluffy and soft and the bedding was quite comfortable as well There’s a number on the gate that can be called for assistance- the gentleman Wa who answered my call was super helpful and also accommodating I took an evening walk and the view is very calming and serene! Definitely a getaway place I would recommend to anyone who is looking for some peace and quiet, a comfortable space to relax and enjoy nature in comfort
