Family with young children

Netjies, skoon en 'n goeie ervaring.

Nie geskik vir ouers met 'n 2-jarige nie. Kamer se dekor was baie mooi maar baie fyntjies. Ons het lekker warm en snoesig geslaap met ondervloerse verhitting, elektriese kombers. Daar was net nie 'n yskas vir ons om ons koue goedjies te kon stoor nie. Verder was dit mooi en gemaklik.

Neat, clean and a good experience.

Not suitable for parents with a 2 year old. The room's decor was very nice but very small. We slept nice and warm and cozy with underfloor heating, electric blanket. There just wasn't a fridge for us to store our cold things. Other than that it was nice and comfortable.

It was peaceful - rooms echo. Insects at night.

Clean, welcoming, clear rules. Loadshedding! No info brochures in the unit.

Hi Frances
Yip load shedding a real pain. We do get schedules but they not always correct.
Normally whatsapp them to guests. Apologies if I did not get those to you.

Tranquility.

Pragtige tuine en veilige omgewing. Ons huisie was perfek, netjies en skoon, smaakvol gemeubileer en met heerlike beddens en lekker storte met genoeg warm water. Ons het baie lekker gebly en kan KarMichael beslis aanbeveel. Eienaar het baie goeie kommunikasie met ons gehad en klomp lekker restaurante aanbeveel.

Thank you for taking the time to rate us. It is much appreciated.
Sorry that we were away, but glad the communications worked well.
Our team try hard to maintain standards and with COVID having smashed us hard, we had to adapt. Still a few more things to get back up to speed, but sincere and appreciative comments are always a good boost for us all.
Thank you

Pragtige landelike ligging.

Rose Cottage het seker die beste ligging. Vir die winter is betonvloere bietjie erg. Baie tegemoetkomende eienaar wat ons bespreking geskuif het.

Rose Cottage probably has the best location. For the winter, concrete floors are a bit harsh. Very accommodating owner who moved our reservation.

Fantastiese wegbreek vir 'n paartjie! Vriendelike diens. Skoon verblyf. Veilig.

Ons het in die selfsorg Rose Cottage gebly. Dis 'n pragtige plaas, ryk aan voëls en vlinders. 'n Hoogtepunt vir ons was die kraanvoëls wat hulleself in die landerye tuismaak. Die plaas is net buite Himeville geleë en dis maklik om oral heen te gaan. Die mense was baie vriendelik en het gesorg dat ons genoeg hout gehad het en dat die plek skoon was wanneer ons teruggekom het ná ons dag se uitstappies. Toe hulle uitvind dat dit ons herdenking is het hulle ons met 'n sjampanje bederf. As jy van JHB se kant af kom stel Google Maps voor jy vat Nottingham Road af en ry dan met Lower Lotheni Road. Ons sou voorstel om eerder via Howick, Bulwer te ry, veral in die aand, want die pad is baie beter.

Great getaway for a couple! Friendly service. Clean accommodation. Safe.

We stayed in the self-catering Rose Cottage. It's a beautiful farm, rich in birds and butterflies. A highlight for us were the cranes that make themselves at home in the fields. The farm is located just outside Himeville and it's easy to go everywhere. The people were very friendly and made sure we had enough wood and that the place was clean when we came back after our day's excursions. When they found out that it was our anniversary they treated us to champagne. If you're coming from JHB, Google Maps suggests you take Nottingham Road and then Lower Lotheni Road. We would suggest driving via Howick, Bulwer instead, especially in the evening, as the road is much better.

Die verblyf het voldoen.

Die koue kraan in die kombuis het glad nie gewerk nie en alhoewel die verblyf pragtig en netjies was, was die plek nie noodwendig skoon nie. Die water waarin ons gebad het was ook bruin. Die badkamer deur maak moeilik oop en toe as gevolg van die gordyn by die venster wat reg by die badkamer deur is. Ek sou voorstel dat hulle 'n blind binne in die gordyn kosyn gebruik. Kevin was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Die grond en chalets is pragtig.

The accommodation was satisfactory.

The cold tap in the kitchen did not work at all and although the accommodation was beautiful and tidy, the place was not necessarily clean. The water we bathed in was also brown. The bathroom door opens and closes with difficulty due to the curtain on the window which is right by the bathroom door. I would suggest that they use a blind inside the curtain frame. Kevin was very friendly and helpful. The land and chalets are beautiful.

Very enjoyable weekend, made even better due to the hospitality and excellent accomodation.

The accommodation was well appointed, clean, modern and very comfortable. The staff were friendly, accommodating and the breakfast was superb. I have no hesitation in recommending Kevin's establishment and will stay there next time I am up that way.
