Good overnight stay.

Very pleasant overnight in a comfortable room with an outside patio. Hosts were most welcoming and provided us with a delicious packed breakfast as we needed to depart early. Easy access close to the main thoroughfare.

Baie tevrede met die verblyf en vriendelike en behulpsame gasheer en gasvrou.

Gasvrou (Jenny) en haar man het goed na ons omgesien en die kamer en geriewe was skoon en netjies. Hulle was ook toegeeflik en het toegelaat dat ons later vertrek sonder ekstra koste. Die enigste negatiewe opmerking wat ek kan noem (waaraan mens niks kan doen nie) is dat die gastehuis naby die hoofstraat is en dat die padgeraas sommige mense mag pla. Dis egter goed geleë om vining by ander plekke uit te kom.

Very satisfied with the stay and friendly and helpful host and hostess.

Hostess (Jenny) and her husband looked after us well and the room and facilities were clean and tidy. They were also accommodating and allowed us to leave later at no extra charge. The only negative comment I can mention (which you can't do anything about) is that the guest house is close to the main street and that the road noise might bother some people. However, it is well located to get to other places.

Baie lekker gebly, vriendelike eienaars van gastehuis.

Waarsku net gaste dat die gastehuis naby die besige pad geleë is en die geraas van die verkeer was baie erg.

Teleurstellend vir 'n drie ster gastehuis.

Alhoewel die kamer skoon was is die dekor oud en afgeleef. Koffiebekers was net omgekeer op 'n plastiek, 1 ply toiletpapier, Ricoffy-koffie, seephouer was 'n plastiek houer wat net hervul word en label kom al af. Baie lawaai van hoofpad dwarsdeur die nag. Jy parkeer agter 'n hek maar die motors is bereikbaar vanaf tuinhekkie.

Disappointing for a three star guest house.

Although the room was clean, the decor is old and shabby. Coffee cups were just upside down on a plastic, 1 ply toilet paper, Ricoffy coffee, soap container was a plastic container that is only refilled and label already comes off. Lots of noise from main road throughout the night. You park behind a gate but the cars are accessible from the garden gate.

Die dekor is oud, want dit het antieke meubels deur die hele gastehuis en nie moderne meubels nie.
Die koffie bekers is omgekeer op die plastiek wat ons daar sit as gaste mors, kan dit direk gewas word en is meer higienies. Enkel toilet papier word gebruik aangesien dit net septiese tenke op die perseel is en dubbel toilet papier nie voldoende en nie gebruik kan word nie. In die badkamer is daar 'n etiket by die toiletpapier om te sê dit is 'n septiese tenk.
Ricoffy word gebruik in die gastehuis vir 13 jaar al, ek sal na die saak kyk en dit vervang met Nescafé.
Die seephouer het die bediende gesê, sy het dit vervang aangesien die gaste voor u dit gebreuk het en daar was nie 'n ander een nie. Sodoende het ek nuwes gaan koop.
Ongelukkig in Desember is daar baie verkeer op die N2 hoofpad, alhoewel ek dubbel glas op die vensters, die hele voorkant opgesit het, help dit baie wanneer vensters oopgemaak word kan die verkeer pla.
Die motors parkeer agter 'n hek en daar is 'n tuin hekkie wat toe maak. Ons is die eienaars al vir 13 jaar en het nog nooit enige problem ooit hier gehad nie.

Ons bied verblyf aan al is dit in hoog seisoen 1, 2 en 3 dae en langer aangesien ons net van die N2 af is en dit is ook so op die webblad gesê.

U het vir 2 nagte gebly en ek het u die familie kamer gegee, want dit is al wat beskikbaar was.
Die kamers aan die agterkant word nie gepla deur die verkeer nie.

Huis weg van die huis, spesiale behandeling, vol liefde, lag, opregte omgee, en waarde vir geld.

Ons was soos familie behandel. Het toegang tot die sitkamer, kombuis, eetkamer gehad. Dit was wat die so lekker gemaak het. Ons was op die hande gedra. Jenny het uit haar pad gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel, en om pamflette bymekaar te maak om ons advies te gee waar om te gaan. Dit nadat sy ons gevra het waarvan ons hou, ens. Ek het lank laas sulke persoonlike, omgee aandag geniet. Ons het net spesiaal gevoel.

Home away from home, special treatment, full of love, laughter, genuine care, and value for money.

We were treated like family. Had access to the living room, kitchen, dining room. That was what made it so nice. We were carried on our hands. Jenny went out of her way to make us feel at home, and to collect leaflets to give us advice on where to go. This after she asked us what we liked, etc. I haven't had such personal, caring attention in a long time. We just felt special.

Nie 'n aangename ervaring nie.

Alhoewel die foto's op die webtuiste 'n prentjie skep, is dit nie heeltemal wat 'n mens kry nie, ons het gevoel dit was misleidend. Die beddegoed was gevlek en oud en die matrasse het al beter dae gehad. Die asblik in die kamer het nie 'n deksel nie en is sommer uitgevoer met 'n plastiese inkopiesak. Die badhanddoeke is verweer en oud en heeltemal te veel dekor (oud) in die kamer. Dit is ook 'n bietjie vol en min ruimte om iets soos jou tas ens gemaklik te kon neersit. Die plek was netjies en skoon maar ons het gevoel dit is heeltemal oorprys in vergelyk met die ander plekke waar ons oor gebly.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Not a pleasant experience.

Although the photos on the website paint a picture, it's not quite what you get, we felt it was misleading. The bedding was stained and old and the mattresses had seen better days. The bin in the room does not have a lid and is simply lined with a plastic shopping bag. The bath towels are worn and old and way too much decor (old) in the room. It is also a bit full and little space to be able to put something like your bag etc. comfortably. The place was neat and clean but we felt it was completely overpriced compared to the other places we stayed.

Forestview Guesthouse 's response

Goeiedag Retha
Dankie vir die terugvoer, jammer dat julle nie gelukkig was nie. Ek het met my bediende gepraat en sy se daar was Jik kol op die beddegoed. Dit is verwyder en ook die handdoeke vir die kamer waar julle in geslaap het. Die matrasse het ek nog nooit 'n klagte gehad oor nie en sal na gekyk word. Die dekor in die kamer is oud want die hele huis het antieke meubels in, en nie moderne meubels nie. Die fotos wys dat dit antieke meubels in die hele plek het.

Ek het vir julle 'n ekstra kamer aangebied waar julle jul bagasie kon insit aangesien dit redelik baie was. In die kamer is die asblik met 'n plastiese sak uitgevoer sodat as gaste tee sakkies in die kamers gebruik hulle dit daar kan ingooi.

Al die kamers het ingeboude kaste wat net bo ekstra komberse in het verder is dit leeg vir gaste om te gebruik.
Dit is 'n B&B en nie selfsorg eenhede nie, sodoende is dit kamers met die nodigste geriewe en 'n huislike atmosfeer soos dit jare terug was, sodat gaste tuis voel.
Beste Groete

A very pleasant stop over, easy access for disabled and the hosts extremely helpful.

Forestview is very well situated and the grounds very pleasant. The room was easy for my husband to access on crutches and the owner Jenny and her partner were extremely helpful and accommodating. The room we had was very big and comfortable and included a huge armchair for my husband to relax in. Although the decor is somewhat dated, the value for money and the friendliness of the hosts makes that a minor detail.

Die diens was uitstekend. Jy voel baie tuis. Wat dit nog meer soos jou huis laat voel is dat die eienaar lekker met jou gesels terwyl sy jou ontbyt voorberei en jou op jou naam verwelkom. Het ook 'n baie mooi uitsig na die berg se kant toe vanwaar daar "paragliding" gedoen word.

Die verblyf was goeie waarde vir geld. Ken en Jenny is baie vriendelik.

Die opset is ietwat eienaardig deurdat 'n mens die gastehuis se kombuis met die ander gaste deel. Dit was wel skoon maar vereis dat gaste hulle gebruik moet sinkroniseer. Ons het twee aande lekker gebraai en die braaiplek is vir ons skoongemaak. Hulle stortgeriewe is uitstekend.

Forestview het 'n goeie ligging net langs die deurpad deur die dorp, en ook naby die restaurante. My kamer was groot en skoon met 'n en-suite badkamer - goed vir die prys. Ek sou 'n buitenste kuier-area wou gehad het met tafeltjies en stoele. Die handdoeke in die badkamer was al afgeleef, en die stortkop is klein. Vir 'n kort verblyf is dit heel billike waarde - die eienaars is vriendelik.

Great room for my price, but towels were tired and shower head small.

Forestview has a good location just off the thoroughfare through town, and also close to the restaurants. My room was large and clean with an en-suite bathroom - good for the price. I would have liked an outside sitting area with tables and chairs. The towels in the bathroom were worn out, and the shower head is small. For a short stay it is very reasonable value - the owners are friendly.

Onberispelik netjies en gasvry!

Alhoewel dit 'n ouer plek is met ouer meubels (antiek) was ons baie beïndruk met hoe netjies en skoon die kamers was. Die eienaar en personeel was ook baie vriendelik, maar geensins tot so 'n mate dat ons privaatheid in gedrang was nie.

Impeccably clean and hospitable!

Although it is an older place with older furniture (antiques) we were very impressed with how neat and clean the rooms were. The owner and staff were also very friendly, but by no means to the extent that our privacy was compromised.

Het slegs een aand oorgeslaap - het dit egter geniet en sal weer daar oornag.

Die eienaars was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam, en die kamer was skoon en netjies. Ons het heerlik geslaap en sal ander mense ook verwys na die gastehuis.

Only stayed one night - enjoyed it though and would stay there again.

The owners were very friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and tidy. We slept wonderfully and will also refer other people to the guest house.

Gawe gasvrou en gasheer, huislik, behulpsaam. Eenvoudige, dienlike akkommodasie.

Ons beveel graag hierdie gastehuis aan vir reisigers op daardie roete. Omgewing ook baie mooi en 'n vinnige afry na die strand-area aan te beveel, voordat daar verder gereis word. Eetplekke en garage skuins oorkant die hoofstraat.

Nice hostess and host, homely, helpful. Simple, serviceable accommodation.

We are happy to recommend this guest house to travelers on that route. Environment also very nice and recommend a quick drive down to the beach area, before traveling on. Eateries and garage diagonally opposite the main street.

Home-from-home accomodation

The most outstanding feature of this establishment is that it is extremely clean and very well run. Our room was comfortable and we had direct access to the lounge and kitchen. The three other guests were very friendly and we had pleasant chats with them and our hosts. It was interesting sitting virtually in the kitchen while the owner (a qualified and experienced chef) prepared our breakfast. We all parted as if we were friends of long standing. Really a pleasant stay!!!

Nice and clean accommodation. A little too close to the N2 though. You'll need a car to going to the beach, however they have an excellent breakfast. As well as friendly and helpful landlords.

They should be 5-star!!! We were treated like Kings, and children are very welcome!

It was absolutely amazing, and our entire family felt the same. We got lots of tips from the hosts, and they made our stay one filled with precious memories.nWe were treated like kings, our breakfast was ready when we came out of our room, the house is furnished beautifully with gorgeous accessories, all very African. When you want to braai, Ken sorts everything out for you, you just have to light the fire! Thank you so much for sacrificing your lives to ensure others have a good time!nAnd Ken and Jenny are so kind to the children, our little boy had the time of his life! It's absolutely worth it to visit Forest View Guest House!!!
