Pragtige ligging, maar nie die geld werd as niks werk soos geadverteer nie.

Die pragtige foto's wat aanlyn geplaas is, weerspieël nie meer die huidige toestand van die huis nie. Alhoewel 'n absoluut pragtige ligging, kort die huis, tuinmaak en algemene instandhouding aandag. Ons is altyd dankbaar om binne die Clarens-streek te bly op ons reise, maar die huis (veral elektronika en algemene instandhouding in en om die huis) moet teruggebring word na sy vorige spoggerige aansien-vlak.

Beautiful location but not worth the money if nothing works as advertised.

The beautiful photos posted online no longer reflect the current condition of the home. Although an absolutely beautiful location, the house, gardening and general maintenance needs attention. We are always grateful to stay within the Clarens region on our travels, but the house (especially electronics and general maintenance in and around the house) needs to be brought back to its former fancy prestige level.

Such a beautiful stay!

We absolutely loved our time in Clarens and we were blown away by our accommodation. The views were out of this world. The only disappointment is that your wording of being able to use Kiara Lodge was very misleading. As we went there to go play putt-putt but we were told that we couldn't. So I would recommend that you relook at that. But we loved exploring Clarens and had a beautiful family weekend. Thank you.

As jy stilte en rustigheid soek, is dit die plek.

Baie lekker plek om net rustig te raak en tyd te spandeer met jou gesin. Die plek was netjies en baie skoon. Kamers is lekker ruim met baie spasie. Die beste is as dit loadshedding is, werk al die ligte in die huis. Sal definitief weer hier kom bly. Dankie.

If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the place.

Very nice place to just relax and spend time with your family. The place was neat and very clean. Rooms are nice and spacious with lots of space. The best is if it is loadshedding, all the lights in the house work. Will definitely stay here again. Thank you.

Vriendelike ontvangs, pragtige uitsig.

Baie dankie dat jul ons so hartlik ontvang het en baie akkommoderend was. Daar is alles wat nodig is in die huis en ons het heerlik gebraai, baie dankie. Elke kamer met sy eie badkamer is 'n groot pluspunt, maar ook die groot eetkamertafel en die tafel buite, maak dit is lekker om saam te kuier. Dankie dat ons hondjie kon saam kuier, dit was 'n bonus!

Friendly reception, beautiful view.

Thank you very much for receiving us so warmly and being very accommodating. There is everything needed in the house and we had a great barbecue, thank you very much. Each room with its own bathroom is a big plus, but also the large dining room table and the table outside, make it nice to hang out together. Thanks for letting our puppy hang out, it was a bonus!

Awesome space for dogs, great location.

The dogs loved the ample space to roam and morning/afternoon walks was sufficient to tire out energetic dogs! Inside fireplace was great for evening chills as well as electric blankets. House is close to Clarens for golf, shopping etc.

Gemiddeld.

Dit was snerpend koud, maar tog geen hout vir die kaggel. Ons het bespreking gemaak vir 8 persone maar was nie meegedeel dat die huis slegs 6 persone huisves nie, die gevolg was 2 persone op die sitkamerbanke. Glasware nie eenvormig, een van elke glas beskikbaar.

Average.

It was bitterly cold, but still no wood for the fireplace. We made a reservation for 8 people but were not told that the house only accommodates 6 people, the result was 2 people on the lounge sofas. Glassware not uniform, one of each glass available.

Ongelooflike mooi plek - waarde vir geld.

Daar is waterbokke en takbokke op die plaas. Die jakkalse het in die aand geroep. Dit was waarlik privaat en ons sal beslis weer hulle besoek.

Incredibly beautiful place - value for money.

There are waterbucks and deer on the farm. The foxes called in the evening. It was truly private and we will definitely visit them again.

Lekker gebly.

Het die uitsig en rustigheid geniet. Netjies en gerieflik. Alhoewel ons die hele huis gehuur het verstaan ek dat indien jy dalk net een kamer gebruik, die res aan ander vreemdes verhuur word. Maak dis seker dat jy nie die huis met ander deel nie. Ons verkies 'n hout- of houtskool-braaier. Hier is slegs 'n gasbraaier. Uitkloktyd was Sondag 10:00. Die skoonmaker het al 09:00 opgedaag en letterlik onder ons voete begin skoonmaak en beddegoed verwyder. Het die gevoel gekry day ons in haar pad was.

Nice stay.

Enjoyed the view and tranquility. Neat and comfortable. Although we rented the whole house I understand that if you only use one room, the rest is rented out to other strangers. Make sure you don't share the house with others. We prefer a wood or charcoal grill. There is only a gas grill here. Check-out time was Sunday 10:00. The cleaner arrived already at 09:00 and literally started cleaning under our feet and removing bedding. Got the feeling we were in her way.

Nie wat ons verwag het nie.

Die bestuurder het ons nie ontvang nie, die man wat ons ingeboek het sou na ons terugkom oor 'n braaier. Sondag toe ons die bestuurder bel was daar geen antwoord. Toe ons moet uit check het niemand hulle fone geantwoord, ons moet die plek toe ooplos. Geen koffie, niks waarmee jy jou glase ens kon was. Geen privaatheid die mense in die res van die huis was vroegoggend wakker, kon nie laat slaap. Dit was glad nie wat ons verwag het nie. As jy op Dynasty se website gaan sê hulle daar's 'n portable charcoal braai, ons het vleis saamgevat om te braai, ons kon toe nie. Niemand wou ons help. Sal dit nie aanbeveel, soek eerder rond, daar's beter plekke.

Translate to English.

Not what we expected.

The manager did not receive us, the man who checked us in would come back to us about a braai. On Sunday when we called the manager there was no answer. When we had to check out no one answered their phones, we had to leave the place open. No coffee, nothing to wash your glasses with etc. No privacy the people in the rest of the house were awake early in the morning, could not let sleep. It was not at all what we expected. If you go to Dynasty's website, they say there's a portable charcoal grill, we took meat with us to grill, but we couldn't. No one wanted to help us. Would not recommend, look around, there are better places.

Daar kort aanwysings waar om sleutel te kry aangesien daar nie ontvangs by die hek is nie. Kort dalk mikrogolf. Verder is die plek skoon en netjies.

Die ligging is pragtig, nooit gedink die Golden Gate is so beeldskoon nie. Die "gastehuis" is op 'n plaas en ons het volstruise, wildsbokke gesien en die huil van jakkalsies is nostalgies vir ons stadbewoners, en die stilte is wonderlik!

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

There is a lack of directions where to get a key as there is no reception at the gate. Short maybe microwave. Furthermore, the place is clean and tidy.

The location is beautiful, never thought the Golden Gate was so picturesque. The "guest house" is on a farm and we saw ostriches, antelopes and the howling of foxes is nostalgic for us city dwellers, and the silence is wonderful!

Good day,

Thank you for your review and comments.

We always tell our clients to call to our colleague, Mara, 30 minutes in advance. We will make sure our clients understand us and, in future, we will try to call our guests on the day of their arrival to remind them about the key collection.

We hope to see you next time and hopefully, this will be managed in a better way.

Have a nice day!

Kind regards,
Nancy
