Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Verified reviewvery good

Absolutely gorgeous get away, the most tasteful interior and comfortable beds, breathtaking views and absolute serenity in the isolation is indescribable. The only thing to be aware of is that the electricty is limited, our power stopped working our second evening and didn’t work up until we left the next morning. It might have been the geyser we forgot to turn off but yeah best be wary of that and bring power banks to charge phones incase. Atleast cooking is gas so you’ll be able to enjoy a meal and coffee during an outage :) Also when thinking of the hot tub as a main attraction, be aware of the fact that wood heating means atleast 20-24 hours of brewing until the temperature is nice. Lastly, the owners are really kind and responsive to any queries, and theres a 24/7 shop with essentials on the farm as well which is very nice!

An amazing getaway. The house is clean, beautiful and spacious. The bedding is luxurious and beds are extremely comfortable. So mane trails and hikes to choose from. The views are endless and it is a complete secluded space where you don't have to worry about the neighbours. The electricity might not last throughout the stay if there isn't enough sunshine for the solar panels so bring back up torches. The hot water is sufficient for a 5 minute shower max at a time. The gas stove means you can cook and boil water any time of the day and night regardless of the electricity. The hot tub is huge but takes a lot more wood to warm up. The farm stall is useful to restock fire necessities. We will go back again.
