Aangenaam.

Wat 'n aangename ervaring, die gasheer en gasvrou het ons so welkom laat voel. 3-gang maal en vars gebakte muffins was die kersie op die koek. Dankie dat u gesorg het dat ons warm en gemaklik was op 'n bibbernaweek in JHB.

Pleasant.

What a pleasant experience, the host and hostess made us feel so welcome. 3-course meals and freshly baked muffins were the icing on the cake. Thank you for keeping us warm and comfortable on a chilly weekend in JHB.

Gaste was baie gelukkig met die kuier.

Ons gaste het vreeslik lekker daar gebly. Hulle kon nie uitgepraat raak oor hoe pragtig dit was nie en hoe die eienaar se gasvryheid hulle so laat welkom voel het nie. Die ontbyt was bo in die boonste rakke. Welgedaan aan African Silhouette Guesthouse.

Dankie dat julle ons toe vertrou het met julle gaste. Ja! Dit was 'n heerlike groepie hartsmense.

Ons sien uit daarna, sou julle weer 'n funksie reel, om julle gaste te kan bederf en huisves.

Fantastiese vriendelike en hartlike ontvangs! Twee klipgooie van OR Tambo af.

Arriveer as vreemdelinge. Vertrek as vriende. Susan sal enigiets doen om jou verblyf so aangenaam as moontlik te maak. 15 minute van OR Tambo af en dit voel en klink of jy reeds in die Platteland is. Ek weet waar ek bly as ek weer verblyf naby OR Tambo benodig! Dis by Susan en African Silhouette!

Fantastic friendly and warm welcome! Two stone's throw from OR Tambo.

Arrive as strangers. Leave as friends. Susan will do anything to make your stay as pleasant as possible. 15 minutes from OR Tambo and it feels and sounds like you are already in the countryside. I know where to stay if I need accommodation near OR Tambo again! It's with Susan and African Silhouette!

Kan dit sterk aanbeveel. Hulle is vriende as jy daar bly.

Susan en Richard is die ideale gashere. Ons seun en sy bruid het daar gebly en 5 ster behandeling gekry. Onvergeetlike verwelkoming. Richard het ook die vervoer van en na OR Tambo gebied. Ons gaan oor 2 weke weer daar oorslaap.

Pragtige kamer en tuine! Diens uitstekend en gasvryheid het uitgestaan!

Pragtige gastehuis wat baie meer is as net 'n plekkie om oor te slaap. Kamer was pragtig en gerieflik, maar bowenal was Susan se gasvryheid en die moeite wat sy gedoen het om mens tuis te laat voel die kersie op die koek!

Delightful overnight with relatively easy access to O.R. Tambo.

African Silhouette was a very pleasant and comfortable overnight stay, including a delicious breakfast, for our mixed group of family and friends. We needed quick access to the airport the following morning but did not want to stay in an airport hotel. Susan is a delightful host, accommodating our dietary requests and family configuration without any hassle. We approached her home from badly pot-holed roads and Susan directed us to a better road for the airport trip.

Ekstra moeite is gedoen sodat ons die aand die lapa vir 'n braai kon gebruik. Die kinders kon op die trampolien spring en lekker op die grasperk speel. Die gasvrou maak seker dat haar gaste alles het wat hul nodig het.

Dit was alles wat ons by 'n plek gesoek het. Netjies, vriendelike mense en natuurlik die fantastiese ontbyt elke oggend. Die eienaar is voorwaar ’n wonderlike en vriendelike dame. Sy het voorwaar uit haar pad gegaan om alles so gemaklik en heerlik vir ons as gesin te maak.

Sjoe, Hans. Jammer vir die frustrasie wat jy moes beleef het.
Dankie dat ek kon verduidelik dat die hek tydelik buite werking is as gevolg van die donderstorm wat ons gehad het en oop en toe geskuif moes word.
Hiermee vra ek dus om verskoning dat ek nors voorgekom het, 22:56 die aand om die hek vir jou vriendin oop te maak. Dit laat my net weereens besef hoe belangrik kommunikasie is, dan sou ek nie in twyfel wees, of ons moet wakker bly of ook tot rus kom nie.
Gelukkig was dit stil, rustig en glo ek kon jy goed uit rus tot 10h15 die oggend.
Uit al die vele goeie resensies van die verlede, neem ek hierdie een ter harte en leer daar uit.
Weereens - Jammer - vir die ervaring.

Dankie vir jul besoek en keuse wat jul gemaak het om juis hier by die 'weggesteekte' African Silhouette Gastehuis te kom kuier en oornag. Julle het beslis die stillte en natuurskoon so in die klein landelike gebied naby OR Tambo geniet. Dit is altyd lekker om te sien mense waardeer nog stil oomblikke in die natuur. Dankie ook vir die verwysing wat julle hier gee en die herinneringe wat julle met julle saam neem met ander deel.

Wonderlike gastehuis met die amazingste gasheer, wat beskikbaar is 24/7.

Ons het vroeg oggend gery en laat aand terug gekom. Ons is vroeg ontbyt gegee deur die mees wonderlike host, wat uit haar pad gegaan het om ons te help. Sy was beskikbaar te alle tye vir ons versoeke en het uit haar pad gegaan om ons te help met enige versoek. al 100% aanbeveel dat die plek gebruik word. Ideaal vir mense wat meer as een aand gaan bly en is ideaal vir langtermynverblyf ook. Baie stil area so ideaal vir veiligheid en rus.

Wonderful guest house with the most amazing host available 24/7.

We drove off early in the morning and returned late. We were given breakfast early by the most wonderful host, who went out of her way to help us. She was available at all times for our requests and went out of her way to help us with any request. already 100% recommend that the place be used. Ideal for people staying more than one night and ideal for long term stays. Very quiet area so ideal for safety and rest.

Wat 'n pragtige boodskappie, dankie Sophia, Rita, Susan & Marthinus :
Julle is "baanbreker gaste"
Tydens jul 8 nagte se verblyf, het julle addisionele deure kom oop maak by African Silhouette Gastehuis
Van nou af maak ons met liefde ons deure oop aan ander gaste wat ook blind is, en is besig met die beplanning om voorsiening te tref ook vir hulle gids honde.
Julle besoek is 'n "eye opener" en dit was 'n totale FEES dat julle juis HIER kon wees.
Baie Dankie Dat Julle African Silhouette Gekies Het

Dit is natuurlik die mees wonderlikste ding vir 'n gasvrou wanneer haar gaste hulself kan geniet. Wegbreektye is maar skaars in die gejaagde lewe en hier op ons mini-plasie omvou ons graag ons gaste, soos julle, met hartlike, spontane boere liefde. Wat 'n voorreg dat ons dit kon doen.

Geniet julle lewensreis en kom loer gerus weer in by ons.

African Silhouette was die perfekte oasis vir ons ma-meisiekind wegbreek. Susan, ons gasvrou, het ons omtrent bederf, soos met heerlike ontbyt in die bed. Die ligging is naby genoeg aan die stad, maar buite stadsgewoel. 'n Ware, intieme oasis vir siel en hart.

Baie aangenaam met goeie vriendelike diens en heerlike ontbyt!

Die plek is 15 minute van die lughawe af. Susan is 'n vriendelike gasvrou wat 'n heerlike ontbyt voortsit. Die akkommodasie is baie netjies en toegerus met lugversorging en ook 'n buitestort. Daar is 'n swembad en braai boma en 'n klein dam wat die rustige atmosfeer beaam veral na 'n lang besige dag op die pad in die woelige Gauteng verkeer.

Die gasvryheid was ongelooflik, Hulle gaan uit hulle pad uit om jou welkom te laat voel en vir jou te voorsien wat jy nodig het. Die kamer was lekker ruim en warm en my kospakkie die volgende oggend was vars gemaak al het ek baie vroeg gery. Dit was reeds donker toe ek daar aankom en toe ek vertrek het so ek het nie veel van die omgewing gesien nie.

Aangaande Wi-Fi die spoed is vinnig, vrylik en gratis beskikbaar vir 20 min in die Wi-Fi hot-spot area, waarin gaste tot dusver tevrede was om die noodsaaklike op die net te doen. Soos by restaurante in ons omgewing, volg ek die trend, na 20 minute skakel dit outomaties af alhoewel hier by African Silhouette dit steeds beskikbaar is maar teen 'n minimale bedrag.
Geniet die res van jul Lewensreis en koester die spesiale oomblikke.

'n Stukkie vrede ... ver genoeg, tog naby genoeg. Susan se kreatiewe, kunstige en ontspanne styl dra by tot 'n besonderse ervaring wat jou sal laat terugkeer vir meer van die stukkie hemel!

Dit was baie rustig, 'n lekker kalm omgewing en 'n wonderlike rustige atmosfeer.

Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek naweek. Ons het dit erg geniet en lekker ontspan. Jammer dat die perde nie rybaar was nie! Verder was dit regtig lekker!

It was very peaceful, a nice calm environment and a wonderful peaceful atmosphere.

It was a lovely getaway weekend. We really enjoyed it and had a great time relaxing. Too bad the horses weren't rideable! Other than that, it was really fun!

Die personeel was aangenaam!

Die persoonlike diens van die eienaar was aangenaam. Die opvolg oproepe/e-posse was voorwaar 'n groot plus. Ek sal verseker weer van die akkommodasie gebruik maak.

Goeie, vriendelike diens!

Baie goeie diens en 'n baie mooi plek. Ekstra moeite is met die ontbyt gedoen, dankie. Dis effens moeilik begaanbaar vir mense wat fisies ingekort is, maar 'n wonderlike ervaring! Dankie!

Good, friendly service!

Very good service and a very nice place. Extra effort was made with the breakfast, thank you. It's slightly difficult to pass for people who are physically impaired, but a wonderful experience! Thank you!
