    The hosts were wonderful. The setting was beautiful. They have a few short walking trails around their farm as well as information about hiking in the area. As others mention, the bathroom is in off of the porch, so you do go outside to use it....

    The cabin was beautiful, unique and creative - it transported us to a different world. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Location was perfect for us and Peta was an exceptional host.

The Karkloof is largely a farming community with the largest strip of East Coast indigenous bush flanking the hills. Old Pine and Evergreen Cabins are located on our property with crisp clean air, beautiful spring water, star filled skies by night, and abundant birdlife by day, free from noise and pollution. It is close to the Karkloof Conservation Centre which has lovely walks with bird hides, "next door" (thats farm speak), to the Karkloof Canopy Tours for a zip line through afore mentioned forest, and close to the Sappi biking trails, over 200 km for the energetic. The Karkloof Club has a bistro overlooking the polo fields. The cabins are on our private farm and are in a safe and secure environment. We are also on the Midlands Meander.
