Aangenaam, gerieflik, vriendelike ontvangs.

Ons moes 1 aand oorbly om 'n bruilof by te woon. Al waaroor ons spyt is, is dat ons nie kans gehad het om die restaurant te ervaar nie, dit lyk sommer lekker daar. Die ligte etes wat ons vinnig in die kamer geniet het, was baie smaaklik en goed voorberei.

Pleasant, comfortable, friendly reception.

We had to stay 1 night to attend a wedding. All we regret is that we didn't have a chance to experience the restaurant, it just looks nice there. The light meals we quickly enjoyed in the room were very tasty and well prepared.

Not 3 star at all.

Firstly, when we got there they were not expecting us and we had to wait in the car until while they prepared a cottage. The second thing was the kettle that was so dirty inside we couldn't even make a cup of coffee in the morning when we left at 6 (photo as proof). On the one side of the bed there was a screw standing out so high that it cuts your feet open. The small passage from the carpark to the cottage is so dark that you are afraid to fall. No light except a small solar light so big as a 5 rand coin. The steps to the door of cottage so broken, an old lady as myself struggles to find a way up. Trees at carpark so low it scratches the roof of your car. All in all a terrible experience. If it wasn’t that I’d already paid, I would have looked for other accommodation. Not a 3 star experience at all, because, to top it all off, there is no TV in the room. There is also no signal for cell phones. I left 6 am in the morning and only got back between 9 and 10 pm, so couldn't discuss review with owner.

Baie dankie dat jy dit onder my aandag gebring het. Dit is nou te laat, maar ek gaandie saak beslis opneem met die personeel. Hulle is ten volle bewus daarvan dat die geysers heel eerste ding die oggend aangeskake moet word. En die feit dat die vloer vuil was, is ook heeltemal onaanvaarbaar. Ek neem dit op met die skoonmaker.

Graag sal ek vir julle 'n nag gratis verblyf aanbeid om op te maak vir die ongerief. Ek hoop u aanvaar dit.

Kos en diens uitstekend. Die res maar heel onaangenaam.

Kamer het geen TV, tafel of stoel, klein yskas, verhitting of kas om jou klere in te sit nie. Kamer is ysig koud. Die trappie na die deur van kamer staan net op los bakstene en ek het amper geval toe ek in die donker daarop getrap het.

Food and service excellent. The rest but very unpleasant.

Room has no TV, table or chair, small fridge, heating or cupboard to put your clothes. Room is freezing cold. The step to the door of the room is only on loose bricks and I almost fell when I stepped on it in the dark.

Mooi weggesteekte plekkie wat deur familie bedryf word.

Skoon, netjies en moderne houthuis tussen die mooi lang bome en baie bekostigbaar. Net 'n bietjie donker in aande want daar is nie beligting tussen huise nie en lampie is nie juis van die beste nie. Andersins lekker geslaap. Dankie.

Beautiful, hidden place managed by a family.

Clean, neat and modern wooden house among long trees and very affordable. Just a bit dark at night because there is no lighting between the houses and the lightbulbs aren't the best. Otherwise has a good rest. Thanks.

Ek was aangenaam verras.

Alle navrae was vinnig en met gemak hanteer. Renee was baie behulpsaam en het veranderinge in ons bespreking sonder enige probleem aanvaar. Die groep was aangenaam verras met die spyskaart by die restaurant. Porsies was groot, goed voorberei en bekostigbaar. Die wooneenhede kan verbeter word deur dalk nog sitplekke/stoele op die veranda aan te bring en die staanwaaiers benodig aandag. Die res van die wooneenheid bied genoegsame gerief vir die prys wat betaal word.

I was pleasantly surprised.

All inquiries were dealt with quickly and with ease. Renee was very helpful and accepted changes in our booking without any problem. The group was pleasantly surprised with the menu at the restaurant. Portions were large, well prepared and affordable. The living units can be improved by perhaps adding more seats/chairs on the veranda and the standing fans need attention. The rest of the residential unit offers sufficient comfort for the price paid.

Die middae is warm en daar is geen waaiers in die kamer nie. Daar is geen hangplek vir klere nie. Tydens ons inboek was daar ander gaste wat ook 'n troue bygewoon het soos ons en dit is die tipe klere wat ophang nodig het wanneer jy inboek.
