We really enjoyed the wood fired hot tub and fireplaces in the rooms. The kids had so much fun feeding the animals and really just playing around on the farm which was fairly safe for the small ones. We will definitely be coming back!

Lovely family holiday, we’ve camped and stayed in the cottages and both were thoroughly enjoyable. Feeding the farm animals are a huge hit for little kids. Farm goodies available to buy were delicious. There is a lovely relaxed atmosphere at Petervale.

A hidden gem! Their campsite feels authentic - peaceful, private and spacious - NOT commercialized. You only hear the sound of nature here.We canoed in the dam using the complimentary canoes, went on a nice 5km walk to swim at a small waterfall, fed the farm animals one morning(donkeys, chickens, cows, Guinea pigs, geese, goats and others) and were lucky enough to milk their cow! Other than we just relaxed.There's hot water, electricity at the outside kitchen,a fridge and freezer and good mobile signal - all you really need.

 Had an amazing few days camping here! So many small, but thoughtful touches just make it - hand soap at the basins, dishwashing soap & scourers at the sinks, communal fridge & freezer, toilets never out of bogroll, canoes for all to use.
We hired a tipi & hot tub & it was awesome!
Lovely quiet, family-friendly campsite - we’ve already booked our next visit!

 I can’t recommend Petervale Guest Farm enough for a few days away to recharge the batteries. Accommodation is incredible (farm-style, with everything one needs and little touches like electric blankets and down duvets! ) and the hospitality of owner Rueben Roux is just next level. The hot tubs are just the cherry on the top! For kids, the farm is just paradise and there is so much to do - walks, bike riding, feeding and petting the farm animals, canoeing, swimming … and the mist beautiful dam. The campsites are paradise!

 I spent the weekend with my 10 year old boys. They had a blast from the minute we arrived, and they did not want to leave. Cottages have that rustic feel you want but have everything one needs. Animals. Bike riding. Dams. Canoes. Making fires. Picking fruit. Milking cows. What else would a couple of lads need ? Reuben was very relaxed and helpful. Will definitely visit again.

Almost perfect! Had the best time camping this past Easter long weekend with friends. Gorgeous setting. Reuben definitely works his butt off to keep it as amazing. On behalf of everyone with more than one kid get more canoe's!! More canoe's and ablutions in the other areas would make this the perfect campsite!

Really can recommend this camping spot My family and I loved discovering this amazing camping site. We stayed in a TP, which was neat, clean and had its own fire place. It was right next to the dam and very near great hot showers. Ruben and his team take pride in what they do - and they do it well! We will be back 🙂

Weekend at Petervale The initial enquiry and booking was handled in a professional manner. The setting is superb with the sound of a trickling stream and mountain views, perfect for relaxing which we did! Regards the cottage, it is reasonably furnished and a plus are the indoor fireplaces. The owners should take note of the following points - additional blankets in the second bedroom should be provided, it was still the end of winter afterall! Some TLC should be applied to the cottage, lounge and bedroom windows have no catches to hold them in place and bathroom window is held together with wire. Not what one expects at R1300 per night. Thought should be given to placing casual relaxing chairs on the patio in addition to the bench table. We had a good week end but I do not think enough care is being given to the cottages. This is a R700/R800 per night cottage.

Quiet weekend away A surprisingly enjoyable weekend away which the whole family enjoyed. Kids enjoyed the dam and animals, we enjoyed the peace and quiet. Used one of their tipis so didnt have to set up anything, everything was ready for us to enjoy.

Definitely returning We had a wonderful time at Petervale, camping at site 11 with friends was a blast. Ruben was very helpful with info about the site and making our stay comfortable and memorable. The kids really enjoyed the outdoors and the fam animal feeding, which was enjoyed at no extra charge.

Beautiful weekend camping in exquisite forest! Where does one even begin to describe this wonderland? Well, fistly, a big thank you to Reuben and his lovely parents. You guys are all amazing! We could not have asked for a better weekend than the one we had at Petervale. We slept in a tipi, under the pines at the waters edge. The forest is truly beautiful, pristine clean - we did not encounter one thorn all weekend and all of us were barefoot from Friday to Sunday. The children had the time of their lives! My grandson got to milk his first cow and both grandchildren fed all the farm animals - there is a guided tour and feeding of the animals at 9 a.m every morning. Children are also welcome to visit the animals throughout the day. The ablutions were clean and rustic. There is a canoe for your use, a tarzan swing for the children and frozen farm yoghurt and organic apple juice for sale. Two of the friendly farm dogs led us on our hike to God's Bathtub, a beautiful deep rockpool and waterfall. Sleeping in a tipi was a first for all of us- spacious and great fun! You are even allowed to pitch your own tents around the tipi. The sites are very big and privately laid out.We will definitely return to Petervale - there is something about spending time in the woods that uplifts the spirits of all who do it. And so reasonably priced too! Thank you, Reuben and family, for a very special weekend! Susan Bremner - Cape Town
