                      We loved the freedom that our kids and pup had and the beautiful scenery and fresh air. The fact that the horses roam freely brings such a nice warm feeling. The service that we got was so nice and everyone is so friendly. Really just a lovely place to hide away from every thing.

                      I really loved how peaceful our stay was, our cottage was clean and the kitchen was everything we needed and more. We LOVED the goats! The scones were delicious. The one thing you could improve on is having more profit range in your shop.

                      The coffee shop can improve. Things in kitchen, no plastic bowls of even potato masher. Very expensive.

                      I loved our long weekend stay at Thaba-metsi. My 2 girls were constantly entertained with pony rides, tractor rides, feeding animals, swimming and long nature walks. I went for a run on the farm property, and was met with horses grazing and birds chirping around me. Our house was wonderful, with absolutely everything we needed - and even farm fresh eggs from the little shop on the premises. We loved it, and will return in future.

                      The whole experience was amazing, Thabametsi delivered on what it promises, it is not a resort but a farm. While access to the farm is a bit of a challenge as the 8 km stretch road leading to the farm is treacherous but it adds to the whole experience. But overall we had a wonderful stay and the staff at the farm was just awesome.
