Peaceful chalet in the forest area with beautiful natural gardens, comfortable and clean accommodation and lovely outdoor living spaces. Friendly hosts and welcoming pets. Truly relaxing and the perfect place to recharge your batteries.

Dear Adela, Brett, Wallace and Grommet, I always have so much fun swimming in the dam, walking on the crystal road and paddling in the Drift. Grommet is such a sweet dog. Thanks for the pies and the garlic. Can`t wait to see you next year. ps. This place must be part of heaven. Love Becs

Thank you very much for an absolutely amazing stay. From the start everything has been wonderful. You have made our stay as a family with our kids so comfortable and memorable. This place is majestic and so soul fulfilling. It has been a rejuvenating and energizing experience, and at the same time relaxing and tranquil. Thank you for all the treats and sharing your organic vegetables with us. You have really made us feel so at home and comfortable. You will definitely see us again.

Dear Brett and Adela. We couldn't have hoped or wished for a more restful and peaceful stay! Thank you so much for taking care of us . We loved the garden and pottering around and exploring. What a life time of work and dedication. The dogs just couldn't have more fun. We would love to be back.

I always have so much fun with the glistening , twirling waves at Buffalo Bay, playing rugby, swimming and surfing. The cycling was the best along the crystal road. I enjoyed dyeing the t-shirt, it was super fun to do. Braaing at your fireplace was cool to. Oh, how could I forget the dam the best part. Grommet always looks just as cute or cuter this year. Wallace was fun to play with. No suggestions, its perfect. Love Eth

Elephant Rest is a hidden gem. Brett and Adela your hospitality is fantastic and way beyond the call of duty. Just love the beauty, the peace and quiet and the garden which has become a haven for a myriad of birds species. Your love of all things natural comes shining thru what you have achieved here. I have and always will recommend Elephant rest to my friends and acquaintances and fellow birders.

Thank you for being such gracious hosts. We loved all the little small touches, and it made the weekend really special. The best thing the weekend was the wonderful fire place that kept us warm over the stormy weekend.
