    A beautiful place and an amazing setting. The hosts were super friendly and welcoming and made us feel relaxed and right at home. We loved the Country House and the views were spectacular. Lots of bird life and the fishing was great. We will definitely be back

    Most beautiful place. The hosts Santie and Pieter went out of their way to make us comfortable. The kids loved the flyfishing lesson. We will definitely be back!

    The road is a challenge. There is minimal reception. And for this reason it’s a perfect getaway. The hosts are also very accommodating. Calm and relaxing with lots of space for hiking and walks. Fly fishing is also on the premises with bass fishing in Lake 4. There are basic items available for purchase on the farm (like ice) In the rooms you have your own fireplace and one of the most calm quiet environments. Well worth the stay!

    Loved our time at Valley of the Rainbow! Beautiful scenery, quality service, clean and well equipped facilities. The most friendly and helpful staff that went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend Valley of the rainbow if you're looking for a kid friendly getaway just two hours from Pretoria. Will definitely be back.
