Gorgeous grounds....terrible road condition

Early in the day our host indicated via phone that we should arrive before dark if possible. We realized upon arrival that the reason was the poor road condition leading to the property. It is fairly steep, gravel and rock with huge ruts and pot holes to traverse. We were in a rental sedan and found it precarious to get up the hill and through the rough road surface.

That being said, the guest house itself was absolutely pristine--virtually a paradise at the end of the road. The hosts were welcoming, friendly; the rooms was beautifully appointed; they had serious strong wifi; and breakfast served on their veranda outside was delightful. Bird feeders lured in beautiful birds while we dined.

I believe it would be helpful if we knew the road was going to be a struggle unless we had a higher car or an SUV.

Lovely little B&B in Sabie

Last minute booking and we were pleasantly surprised with our lucky choice. Owners were a very nice British couple and their Dogs and Cats were very friendly and great for people missing their pets whilst on holidays. Stairs inside are very steep and no aircon in rooms, other than that, we loved this place and would stay again if in the area.

enjoyable stay

Lovely guest house in a beautiful setting. Our host and hostess were very friendly and hospitable, directing us to a fabulous restaurant not far away....(that had wifi that we were desparte for due to work issues) Breakfast was delicious and set out on the patio overlooking a georgeous scene. Loved this place and would definitely stay here again when in the area.

Ruhiger Rückzugsort in sehr guter Lage

Nach ca. 1 km auf einer etwas abenteuerlichen Schotterstraße, die von der Strasse zwischen Sabie und Hazyview abzweigt, erreicht man das Porcupine Ridge B & B. Die Lage ist etwas abgelegen ca. 4 km von Sabie entfernt, aber sehr idyllisch und ruhig. Das Anwesen ist von einem wunderschönen Garten umgeben und ist ein sehr guter Ausgangspunkt für Touren auf der Panorama Route oder in den Krüger National Park (als Tagestour oder zur Weiterfahrt). Die Gastgeber Janet and John sind supernett und geben praktische Tips für Ausflüge etc. Sehr gut gefallen hat uns das Frühstück auf der Terrasse bei schönem Wetter. Auf einen Pool muss leider verzichtet werden. Die Zimmer sind geschmackvoll eingerichtet, ausreichend groß und komfortabel jedoch etwas hellhörig. Um Restaurants etc. zu erreichen, muss man jeweils nach Sabie fahren, da sich in direkter Umgebung des B & Bs keine Restaurants oder Einkaufsmöglichkeiten befinden.

Haus in den Bergen

Wir sind sehr freundlich nicht nur von den Gastgebern, sondern auch von zwei ganz lieben Hunden freudig begrüßt worden, später kam noch eine Siamkatze dazu.
Zum Frühstück gab es selbstgemachtes leckeres Lemon Curd. Zum Abschied haben wir das Rezept mitbekommen und schon ausprobiert >> sehr einfach und lecker. Danke dafür!

Prachtige omgeving en zeer vriendelijk ontvangst

De weg naar het guesthouse is een beetje stijl en slecht verhard. Uiteindelijk op het complex ligt er een prachtig huis met een mooie tuin en een zeer vriendelijk echtpaar. Ontvangst met koffie of thee en uitleg over de omgeving. De kamer is keurig verzorgd en ziet er zeer netjes uit. De eigenaren maken graag een praatje met hun gasten en verzorgen 's-morgens een heerlijk ontbijt. In het guesthouse is geen WIFI, maar er kan gebruik worden gemaakt van de computer van de eigenaar.

Porcupine Ridge empfehlenswert

Die Gastgeber sind freundlich+ hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war top. Die Räume waren sauber und gross, der Garten beeindruckend. Leider liegt das empfehlenswerte B&B etwas ausserhalb von Sabie und der Anfahrtsweg geht etwa 1 km über eine Staubstrasse. Dafür ist es aber auch ruhig.
