We
needed
a
place
to
take
photos
for
my
sons
matric
farewell
he
and
his
friends
wanted
to
take
photos
in
the
field,
they
wanted
a
farm
feeling.
I
contacted
a
lot
of
places
in
Bloemfontein
but
I
could
not
find
the
right
place,
some
of
the
places
I
contacted
charged
a
huge
amount
of
money
just
to
take
photos.
I
went
onto
Google
Maps
and
search
for
a
place
near
Monte
Bello
because
the
Matricfarewell
was
held
there,
then
I
saw
Olive
Hill
Country
Lodge,
I
contacted
them
and
from
the
moment
they
answered
the
phone
they
where
very
helpful
and
said
that
I
can
come
and
and
have
a
look
if
it
will
work
for
us
to
take
photos
there,
upon
arrival
at
Olive
Hill
Country
Lodge
Derik
was
very
friendly
and
helpful.
The
place
was
perfect,
just
what
we
had
in
mind
the
large
verandah
in
front
of
the
Lodge
is
beautiful,
as
well
as
the
garden,
and
the
farm
feeling
what
the
children
wanted
was
there,
with
sheep
in
the
background
as
well.
On
the
day
the
parents
could
also
join
the
children
and
we
had
a
special
gathering
with
our
children,
before
the
children
had
to
go
to
Monte
Bello
Estate
that
is
just
a
5
minute
drive
away
from
Olive
Hill,
that
was
also
very
convenient
for
us.
Derik
opened
one
of
the
rooms
for
us
to
use
the
bathroom
facilities,
the
room
is
beautiful
and
very
clean
I
can
highly
recommend
this
place
for
a
brake
away
weekend,
or
an
overnight
stay
as
it
is
not
far
out
of
the
city.
Thank
you
Derik
for
your
friendliness
and
help
we
had
a
wonderful
time
at
Olive
Hill
Country
Lodge.
