Ons was teleurgesteld.

Nie lekker gebly nie, die badkamer is slordig en die stort sal voetswamme veroorsaak.

We were disappointed.

Not a nice stay, the bathroom is sloppy and the shower will cause athlete's foot.

Heerlike oornagplek vir moeë reisigers.

Ons het baie lekker oorgeslaap in 'n stil en rustige omgewing. Die kothuis het alle denkbare geriewe met 'n fantastiese lekker bed waarop ons heerlik in droomland kon beland.

Great stopover for weary travelers.

We had a very good night's sleep in a quiet and peaceful environment. The cottage has all imaginable facilities with a fantastically comfortable bed on which we were able to end up in dreamland.

Bietjie klein maar rustig.

Ons het een aand oorgeslaap. Baie lekker stil plek, bietjie beknop maar alles wat ons nodig gehad het vir een aand.

A bit small but quiet.

We slept over one night. Very nice quiet place, a bit cramped but everything we needed for one night.

Rustige wegbreek uit die dorp uit.

Heerlike akkommodasie vir ons 3 gesinne. Goeie slaapplekgeriewe en kombuis wat toegerus is met die nodige. Het saamgekuier op die verskeie stoepe en selfs op 'n warm dag geswem. Die tuin voor die akkommodasie en die hoofhuis is besonders groen en mooi. Het ook die stappies op die landgoed saam met die honde en kinders geniet.

Peaceful getaway out of town.

Lovely accommodation for our 3 families. Good sleeping facilities and a kitchen that is equipped with the necessary. Hanged out on the various porches and even swam on a hot day. The garden in front of the accommodation and the main house is particularly green and beautiful. Also enjoyed the walks on the estate with the dogs and children.

Dit was voldoende vir oorslaap, nie regtig kuier nie.

Die verblyf was gepas vir net 'n oorslaap, maar ek sal dit nie aanbeveel as 'n plek waar 'n mens langer as 2 dae kan ontspan en rus nie. Die omgewing rondom die huisie was ook nie kindervriendelik nie.

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

It was sufficient for sleeping over, not really visiting.

The accommodation was suitable for just an overnight stay, but I would not recommend it as a place where one can relax and rest for more than 2 days. The environment around the house was not child-friendly either.

Lieflike wegbreek van die stad.

As jy van die natuur hou, is dit die plek. 'n Lieflike plek in die natuur waar jy rustig kan stap in die tuin. Daar word nog gebou aan meer huisies, maar dit sal 'n pragtige plek wees wanneer hulle klaar is en al die idees wat hulle wil inbring. Dit is 'n rede waarom ek weer sal terugkom.

Lovely break from the city.

If you like nature, this is the place. A lovely place in nature where you can take a leisurely walk in the garden. More cottages are still being built, but it will be a beautiful place when they are finished and all the ideas they want to bring in. This is a reason why I will come back again.

Only good for a sleep and go. I wont be back.

The gardens are just weeds. Old machinery and building rubble lying around. Very sad indeed. I won't be back.

Haldon Estate 's response

We have the most beautiful gardens which are treasured by many who have visited Haldon Estate. We have been doing a lot of maintenance to the Historical House and as an extra we are busy installing hot tubs at the units, which we believe will be a great treasure in the future and appreciated by all our clients. We have also enclosed some units for more privacy and to keep a dog inside the perimeter when needed. No old machinery, but as we are an estate, we do have a truck and trailer, a watering van in case of fires etc. Our machinery is not in the way of any of our clients and are parked at our main house.
Haldon is a truly special place and the majority of our clients are in true appreciation of our History and Gardens.
We apologise should you not have enjoyed your stay with us. We can only assure you that at Haldon we will do our best to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Oornagverblyf op pad na Noord-Kaap.

Ons het een nag oornag op pad na die Noord-Kaap. Ons is 'n gesin van 5 en het die 5-slaap eenheid bespreek vir die aand. Die eenheid is voldoende gewees vir ons behoeftes en was maklik toeganklik vanaf die N8 waarop ons gereis het. Die elektriese komberse op die beddens was baie gerieflik aangesien die aande maar redelik koud is. Ons verkies meestal 'n eenheid met 2 badkamers en die eenheid het net een gehad (dit was so geadverteer met net een badkamer, ons verkies steeds 2).

Overnight stay on the way to Northern Cape.

We stayed one night on our way to the Northern Cape. We are a family of 5 and have booked the 5 bedroom unit for the evening. The unit was adequate for our needs and was easily accessible from the N8 we were traveling on. The electric blankets on the beds were very convenient as the evenings are quite cold. We usually prefer a unit with 2 bathrooms and the unit only had one (it was advertised as having only one bathroom, we still prefer 2).

Pragtige omgewing, vriendelike en baie behulpsame gasvrou.

Alhoewel die omgewing my aanvanklik bekommerd gemaak het a.g.v. die baie kleinhoewes, is ek aangenaam verras. Haldon Estate is geleë op 'n lieflike plasie met ryk geskiedenis. Dit is lekker weggesteek van die stad en baie rustig. Doreen was vreeslik vriendelik en het ons vooraf gekontak met aanwysings, ons ontvang en alles mooi gewys. Heerlik gebly, lekker vuur gemaak en gebraai. Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel vir oornagplek.

Beautiful surroundings, friendly and very helpful hostess.

Although the environment initially worried me because the many small holdings, I am pleasantly surprised. Haldon Estate is situated on a lovely place with a rich history. It is nicely hidden from the city and very peaceful. Doreen was extremely friendly and contacted us in advance with directions, received us and showed us everything. Had a great stay, made a nice fire and grilled. Would recommend anytime for an overnight stay.

Lekker ruim eenheid.

Dit was 'n lekker ruim eenheid met al die nodige geriewe. Hoewel die beddens elektriese komberse op het, was die komberse bo-op die beddens baie dun vir 'n baie koue wintersaand. Ons het nietemin baie lekker gebly.

Nice spacious unit.

It was a nice spacious unit with all the necessary amenities. Although the beds have electric blankets on them, the blankets on top of the beds were very thin for a very cold winter evening. Nevertheless, we had a very nice stay.

Goeie dag, baie bly julle het lekker gebly. Ja die koue het vinnig ingekruip. Ons het ons dik duvets, met snoesigge komberse saam met die elektriese komberse by gesit om te verseker dat almal baie lekker warm slaap in hierdie koue tyd. Daar is ook meer as genoeg ekstra komberse beskikbaar op aanvraag. Die lugversorger in hoofslaapkamer help ook darem teen die koue aande. Vriendelike Groete en baie dankie vir u terugvoering. Groete
Doreen. Haldon Estate.

Baie basies maar skoon.

Die verblyf is baie skoon en netjies. Maar baie basies. As jy soek vir iets luuks is dit nie die plek vir jou nie. Pad na verblyf is 'n kort stuk grondpad wat nie lekker ry nie. Dit lyk meer soos plot as estate en daar is nie perde nie.

Very basic but clean.

The accommodation is very clean and tidy. But very basic. If you are looking for something luxurious this is not the place for you. Road to accommodation is a short stretch of dirt road that is not pleasant to drive. It looks more like plot than estate and there are no horses.

Hallo Alecia, baie dankie dat jy die moeite gedoen het om vir ons 'n resensie te skryf. Die foto's op ons webblad wys duidelik wat jy kan verwag indien jy by ons bespreek. Ons eiendom is 15ha groot en die tuine tot teen die kop agter 4 ha. Soos reeds maande terug gesê is, die perde wat voorheen hier was, perde wat gered is en hulle is na 'n beter plek gestuur. Sovêr my kennis strek, adverteer ons nêrens dat ons perde het nie. Nie te min ons respekteer jou opinie en wens jou 'n rustige vakansie verder.

Pragtige behuising net buite dorp.

As jy nie in die middel van die dorp wil bly is dit die plek om te oornag. Ons het in Saffron gebly. Uitsig oor die pragtige tuine van die estate. Puik diens.
