Lieflike rustigheid en baie rustig.

Baie netjies en spesiale plekkie. Ek het lekker gebly daar. Al wat fout was, is die bad se prop is stukkend, maar verder is dit 'n baie aangename plekkie - net jammer ek moes vroeër vertrek het.

Lovely tranquility and very peaceful.

Very neat and special place. I had a nice stay there. All that was wrong was the tub's plug was broken, but other than that it's a very pleasant place - only sorry I should have left earlier.

Alles wat 'n mens nodig het om tuis te voel tydens 'n 4 dae kuier.

Ons het elke oggend 'n uitstekende ontbyt gekry. Ons het 1 aand ook die kok se goeie kos geniet. Orals was dit netjies, interessante opset. Definitief die moeite werd en ook baie gasvry.

Everything one needs to feel at home during a 4 day visit.

We got an excellent breakfast every morning. We also enjoyed the cook's good food 1 night. Everywhere it was neat, interesting setup. Definitely worth it and very hospitable too.

Great venue in Barkly West.

The facilities were very comfortable and the kitchen very kindly stayed open to provide a dinner for my wife and I. Added bonus was the large, walk in cold room. If you are an overland visit and carrying a bunch of perishable groceries then this is an added convenience.

Dit was 'n ongelooflike ervaring. Alles was perfek.

Ons het 'n heerlike ontbyt gehad. Die personeel was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die tuine en omgewing is pragtig! Ons het baie lekker met Joy die gasvrou gesels. Die kamers het ondervloerse verhitting. Alhoewel winter, was dit lekker warm in die vertrekke. Ons sal definitief weer Die Olyfhuis besoek.

It was an incredible experience. Everything was perfect.

We had a delicious breakfast. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The gardens and surroundings are beautiful! We had a great time chatting with Joy the hostess. The rooms have underfloor heating. Although winter, it was nice and warm in the rooms. We will definitely visit Die Olyfhuis again.

Lekker ruim huis met alles wat jy benodig.

Baie netjies en goed ingerig vir reisigers. Ideaale oorblyplek. Ons kinders en kleinkinders het daar gebly en praat met groot lof van die oornagverblyf. Lekker plaasatmosfeer met uitstekende veiligheid.

Very neat and Joy was unbelievably helpful.

The place is very nice and a bit far from town for someone who doesn't have a car, but for my parents it was not an issue as Joy promised to help them with that and she did as promised.
