The location was great as we were only there for a night prior to an event. However the house and furniture could do with a lot of TLC and a bit of extra cleanliness.

The cabin itself is wonderful, well maintained and fully equipped with all the creature comforts. Clean and spacious...very happy. Unfortunately it sits off the main road, which has a constant stream of traffic, especially large container vehicles and trucks. This makes sitting outdoors noisy and unpleasant. In a different location, it would tick all the boxes.

Once again, thanks for a wonderful stay in Underberg. Home away from home! Great hike at Sani Spoors wit hthe best coffee to finish a 6 km hike. A visit to Kenmo Lake always a must, and a climb behind Bergview to end the weekend!

We had an amazing stay at Berghaven. We came with our 9 month old baby and the place very much accommodated her too. The house is very neat and cosy. Everything is in order and we are looking forward to coming back with our friends, probably in summer. It has been very cold but the place is well equipped for such cold days. So thank you very much. Keep up the good work,

Such a comfortable bed and lounge suite and warm friendly atmosphere in the cottage. Only negative (something out of your power) was no electricity and water. Great having sport on the TV - we all enjoyed watching our teams playing rugby. Loved it here so much that we booked in for another day. Thank you.

Firstly we would like to thank you for accommodating our stay to an extended night. Much appreciated. On entering the main driveway, my family and I were taken aback by this beautiful cottage. The atmosphere, warmth and "cosiness" felt like home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rooms were all neat and tidy. The DSTV Channels were a bonus. Both the kitchen and the bathroom was well equipped and comfortable for use. We truly loved our visit!

We had a really wonderful stay. The garage was a real life saver for our car as we experienced some heavy hail on one day of our stay. We were very happy with the facility. Thank you. Mavis was great, the garden is lovely!
