Lovely host.

We overnighted at African Dawn on our way home from Robertson to Johannesburg. Dawn is a gracious host who made sure we were well cared for. The room was clean and had everything needed for our stay. We were grateful for the aircon as Calvinia is a dreadfully hot place! Our breakfast was good. No complaints.

Uitstekende gastehuis in stil omgewing.

Die gastekamer, badkamer en kombuis is besonders ruim en silwerskoon. Geleë in 'n stil straat waar die vragmotors wat deur die dorp ry, glad nie gehoor kan word nie. Die matras en linne was van uitstekende gehalte en vir seker 'n goeie nagrus. Dawn is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ontbyt was heerlik en was baie billik geprys. Ons sal vir seker weer daar oornag.

The Dawn in African Dawn is a most hospitable host and owner of a beautifully decorated, comfortable, air-conditioned set of units in a treed garden that shades you from the Karoo sun.

African Dawn is a must-stay in Calvinia and leaves you relaxed and happy as you set out for sunrise over the Vanrhyns Pass. Thanks, Dawn. Keep up the great hosting. No reservations about recommending African Dawn for a stayover.

Baie netjies en goed toegerus. Ongelukkig geen braaifasiliteit.

Die koffiewinkel op perseel bied uitstekende kos en maak op vir die tekort van braaifasiliteit. Die pizza kan hoogs aanbeveel word.

Uiters netjiese eenheid met alles wat nodig is.

Aangesien die plek as B&B geadverteer word moet kliënte net daarvan bewus wees dat die ontbyt nie outomaties by die prys ingesluit is nie. Dit is 'n ekstra koste en het ek duidelik nie die advertensie reg gelees nie. Ons het wel aandete daar geniet in die "coffee shop" en was dit heerlik en smaakvol. Beveel African Dawn aan met graagte.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Extremely neat unit with everything needed.

Since the place is advertised as B&B, customers just need to be aware that the breakfast is not automatically included in the price. This is an extra charge and I clearly did not read the ad correctly. We did enjoy dinner there in the "coffee shop" and it was delicious and tasty. Recommend African Dawn with pleasure.

We were given a lovely room with bathroom and kitchen, absolutely perfect for our needs. The B&B is within easy walking distance of the town centre. There are several restaurants just a short drive away. The perfect stop-over in the Karoo. The owner, Dawn, is very friendly and obliging. A full English breakfast is included.

Dawn was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig, ons aangeraai na 'n restaurant vir die aand en self die bespreking gemaak. Ons eerste besoek aan Calvinia 2 jaar terug was nie so aangenaam nie, maar die storie is definitief herskryf en ons sal definitief weer by haar gaan oornag sou ons weer deur Calvinia moet reis.

'n Plek om te ontspan, uit te rus en die natuur te geniet.

Vriendelike en persoonlike diens. Die eienaar het ook namens ons 'n bespreking by 'n plaaslike restaurant gedoen. Die beskikbaarheid van etes op die perseel is 'n pluspunt. Die eenheid is baie goed toegerus. Ons was voorsien van gebottelde water om te drink aangesien die area waterprobleme het a.g.v. die droogte. Dit is in 'n stil omgewing. Die eienaars is baie hulpvaardig en ingelig om allerhande vrae te beantwoord.

A place to relax, rest and enjoy nature.

Friendly and individual service. The owner made a reservation at the local restaurant on our behalf. The availability of meals on the premises is a plus. The unit is very well equipped. We were provided with bottled water, as the area had water problems and restrictions because of the drought. It is in a quiet area. The owners are very helpful and able to answer any questions.

Ons sal altyd by African Dawn tuisgaan as ons in Calvinia moet oorslaap.

Dis die tweede keer dat ons by African Dawn tuisgaan en sal altyd weer terugkom daarheen. Hul gasvryheid en die netheid van die plek is van die boonste gehalte.

Gemaklik, netjies en stylvol.

Een aand hier was dalk te kort. Ons het baie lekker gebly en die ontvangs was goed. Dawn het vir ons 'n baie lekker restaurant aanbeveel waar ons heerlik geëet het. Die kamers was lekker warm, gemaklik en baie netjies en skoon. Ontbyt was ook baie goed gewees, veral die muesli wat hulle self maak! Gaan beslis terugkeer.

Baie aangenaam.

Dit was net geweldig warm en die lugversorging het gesukkel om die woon-eenheid af te koel. Ons stel voor dat 'n tweede lugversorging-eenheid vir die groot ruimte geïnstalleer word.
