Camped on spot no 38, close to the ablutions and kids play area. Enough shade. The camp area is paved with bricks, which makes putting the pegs in difficult. Ablutions was clean. Bring a very long lead for electricity and your own drinking water. You can rent kayaks to go down the river. Take antihistamine for the weeping willow trees and dust.

We had a wonderful 7 night stay in our tent with a magnificent view of the river! Our braai was cleaned every morning (thank you!), ablution blocks always clean and enough hot water, and a warm welcome from Wilhelm.We thoroughly enjoyed the serenity of this well kept caravan park, and look forward to returning in the future.

We are camping here and we just love the calmness. The place is kept clean and they have strict rules to make sure that no one is inconvenienced by others. We feel safe. It is close to everything which is perfect for us.

Very nice camp site, clean and good amenities, lots of grass and tall trees. Beautiful river and amazing pool with super tube.... but not very dog friendly, not worth bringing your dog because you need to keep them on a leash at all times, more dog friendly camp sites around the area. Pitty....

Fabulous place. Beautiful views and river. Dogs allowed. Beautifully kept and excellently run with courteous staff. Cannot fault this caravan park. A very peaceful getaway but weekends are busy with lots of children.

Lovely stands and well maintained But that is about it. When we arrived only limited ablution facilities were open. When enquiring the very friendly manager told us that they only open more ablutions during weekends. When more and more campers arrived the other ablution block for the ladies was opened but with no hot water at all. We were told that the owner said they cannot start the boiler there is not enough campers. REALLY? We paid for hot water!!! How on earth can you tell your guests they cannot have hot water?? Toilet paper is only restocked once a day and there was no hand soap or paper towels supplied. To sum up : I dont think I can recommend Silwerstrand to friends and family and I will definitely not visit them again.

Lovely camping grounds next to the Breede River. You can swim in the river or in the pool. Best of all its pet friendly so doggo can go with.

Review №15

Great place for kids(pool with slide), more suited to caravans than full on camping. Tons of rules! Dont pay the extra R40 per person to be riverside, just means you near the river not along it. Rather take a site at the back as it much less foo t traffic and river is 1 minute walk

Review №34

We had a thoroughly great time at Silwerstrand campsite. There is lots to do including the dam to take a boat out onto and fish, and the favorite being the super tube. The ablutions were neat although I was there on my own with my son and daughter and was not able to use the family bathroom at the time due to vandalism from kids the weekend before. There was also a group of men who spoke and laughed till the early hours of the morning (management did sort them out for a more peaceful sleep the next night). It is also close to Robertson with so much to do like wine tasting etc... This site has a real caravan park resort feel to it, but has much to offer if you are taking kids with.

Review №38

Generally enjoyed our stay. Mostly older couples, dog-friendly; but enforces lead-rule very strictly, which was sometimes a bit of a bother for us. I guess they had dog-trouble in the past, so its understandable.Swimming pool is very nice and ablution block def. above standard for camping spot.Please thumbs up if you found this review helpful :)

Review №39

Beautifully clean ablutions and camp sites with plenty of shade. Some of the sites are quite a distance from the power points, so ensure you have at least a 30m lead if youre going to make use of 220V. The road between the site and the adjacent golf-course as well as the mowing of the golf-course makes the noise levels a little more than ideal, but Silverstrand is definitely worth a visit.

Review №46

After making a reservation, we were informed on the day that it didnt exist and would have to go elsewhere. Their reason was I am not the only person in the office . Shocking, and all the owner does is make out that it was our fault. Zero apology, zero accountability. Think twice before you book and watch the comments on how they try to deflect the blame. I am certainly not the first to complain and certainly wont be the last

Family friendly, amazing owner that takes no nonsense. Easy access to the River, lovely clean swimming pool with a super tube. No funny people. We felt safe, nothing gets stolen, our phones were left in the tents all the time. No late night noise and drunken chaos. Very clean ablutions and a great laundry. We booked again for next year!

Review №53

If there was no stars or even a minus, it would definitely be my rating! The rudest, unhelpful reception after a misunderstanding with our reservation, and absolutely no interest to be forthcoming and meeting us halfway! The campsite we were allocated to was in the middle of a road between the other campers, and when we decided to leave, they just gave our gate deposit back and didnt even offer to refund any amount, all the while being blunt and not giving a hoot!! WOULDNT RECOMMEND THEM AT ALL AND WILL DEFINITELY NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN!!!

Review №60

Decent stands but ablution facilities and servicing thereof are limited during the week, with no soap or towels and only one toilet roll per day being provided. The gravel road next to the premises is noisy and kicks up lots of dust. Building rubble in the clearing next to the river requires attention.

Ju
Review №61

An amazing place for the whole family, ablution blocks are well maintained and the area in general is very well kept. Lots of things to do with the whole family. With the river also located nearby is it amazing for the avid kayaker. But i would not suggest this place for couples and lovers for the outdoors. Tha area is located right next to a gravel road which has moderate traffic during the day, also the rules for dogs are too strict.

Strictly for families with young children. Expect laughing and screaming kids from 7am to 10:30pm, running all through the park. Running through your site, tripping over your tent ropes. Nice clean park, well run though.

Ch
Review №65

Yet to encounter a friendly staff member after a week’s stay, from the terrain workers through to the head management, there is a general “you-owe-me” undertone to the way clients are addressed. Bathrooms were mud-soaked for the entire trip and toilet paper seems to be scarce in Robertson?? Furthermore, the directors could really spare a few cents and buy some decent, working shower heads. Outside, taps are far and few. Trees and bushes around sites are generally unkempt. However non of these vanities trump the scathing attitude of the staff, which really does take away from the camping experience I drove 2 hours to try and have. A beautiful place, ruined by an absent (-minded) management.

Review №74

What a great weekend! Our boys had a fabulous time kayaking on the river, swinging on the ropes, fishing, swimming in the river and pool. If you are outdoor people, this is the campsite for you. Clean, neat tidy sites with excellent ablutions. I prefer being in a campsite that is quieter and well run, so rules work well for me. It allows for a degree of respect and security for your fellow campers. We have supported their sister campsite in Montagu for years and will continue to support this one too! Well done guys, thanks for a great weekend!

Terrible experience, the owners don’t care about their paying campers or about campers health, when a person goes and explains they are allergic the owner gets stroppy and rude and shows you out of the office!!!! How they managed to get the rating they have is beyond me as even the swimming pool is so small, their ablutions are not up to standards....would not recommend this campsite to anyone not even my enemy!!!

Thank you but will not be back. Uneven camping grounds, toilets not cleaned as often as should. Dont like grumpy vibe from the owner. Gives out an unwelcome feel. Not much attraction for kids... supertube only on mornings until 12 and afternoon from 4. Mid day heat no-go.

Definitely for kids and motor boats only. Not a peaceful River getaway if thats what you looking for. Grounds kept immaculate, well maintenaned and organised. Very few taps on premises, you need to walk far into someone elses camp to get to water.

Review №89

Never again!! Bad experience when we stayed 4 nights at Silwerstrand.Reception was not helpful and owners was rude. We have been there a few times but this was the last as my friends says the same.We were very disappointed with Silverstrand this past week tho we have been there a few times and never experienced rude owners and not helpful. When we checked in on Wednesday there were already problems with payments that we made 2 months in advance but we have managed to sort it out. We were told that there is only 2 toilets open where we were and the rest of the toilets only opens on Friday over weekends. About 13 plots was taken,so if one person is in the shower and I need to go to the bathroom I will have to wait! In March we booked 4 plots for 16 not realizing that a few people had canceled as time went and wouldnt think it would of been a problem as it is out of season. It was only 20% full Friday when another 4 people checked in we had to go to the office to talk to the owner as things didnt add up and we were confused. We then paid for 16 people tho we were only 8 as we didnt tell them before hand as it is our fault and I understand but if we were told the Wednesday already there wouldnt of been issues. After payment the owner didnt even say thank you or anything. Saturday another 2 people checked in as everything was paid for when we spoke to the owners on Friday. My friends was asked to pay more for the Saturday. So there was another discussion.Sunday when we checked out I gave the remote to reception for the deposit of the remote. Reception told me that I have another remote on my plot and if one of my friends surname was ......... so we said no and she refuse to give my money till I call my friends.What a big disappointment and spoiled out stay!!
