Pleasant, relaxing and stress-free.

We stayed at Karoo Scense on Christmas Eve. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. The room was comfortable with a fridge and kettle, but no other cooking facilities. There is a very nice, sheltered and private outside area to relax in. We arrived on bicycles and there was a washing line to hang our clothes on and a safe place to keep the bikes overnight. WiFi was only available from 16h00. The website needs updating with photos of the bedroom. There were no date balls which I was really looking forward to.

Goeie waarde vir geld - aangename Karoo ondervinding.

Ons was aangenaam verras met die lekker verblyf. Baie privaat en rustige omgewing, ons het in die aande gestap en sterre gekyk en die eetplekke ondersteun.

Good value for money - enjoyable Karoo experience.

We were pleasantly surprised with the nice stay. Very private and peaceful setting, we walked and star gazed in the evenings and supported the eateries.

Fantasties.

Brita is 'n fantastiese gasvrou, vriendelik en bedagsaam en laat jou onmiddelik tuis voel. Die huisie was baie skoon en netjies en baie smaakvol. Die plekkie het ook 'n baie goeie ligging. Ons sal einige tyd weer daar gaan bly. Baie dankie Brita en Lekkeslaap vir 'n onvergeetlike langnaweek. Marie Bolton.

Fantastic.

Brita is a fantastic hostess, friendly and considerate and makes you feel immediately at home. The house was very clean and tidy and very tasteful. The place also has a very good location. We will stay there again some time. Thank you very much Brita and Lekkeslaap for an unforgettable long weekend. Marie Bolton.

Extremely uncomfortable and boring.

You may not flush the toilet. You may not use water and if you shower, it is with ice cold water. There is no parking ring for vehicles. Your car is in the sun all day. There is nothing to heat food with and no broom to sweep. There is also no TV and on a Sunday afternoon just pretty much nothing to do. Mosquitoes carry you away if ants haven't done it.

Rustic and quaint.

Baie basies, maar baie gerieflik, voetrus in stort is definitief 'n groot pluspunt!

Swak.

Die plek is vuil. Kakkerlakke en spinnekoppe orals. Geen veilige parkering. Beddegoed gelap. Buitensporig duur vir wat jy kry. Die plek hoort nie eintlik op die webblad se site nie.

Weak.

The place is dirty. Cockroaches and spiders everywhere. No safe parking. Bedding patched. Excessively expensive for what you get. The place does not actually belong on the website's site.

Kon nie beter nie.

Lekker gekuier met ons gashere. Meer gevoel soos vriende. Rustieke en kunstige akkomodasie.

Uitstekend gemaklik, geen TV is 'n groot plus!

Dit is in 'n baie stil deel van die dorp en die verblyf is uiters privaat. Geen gedeelde areas nie so mens voel baie gemaklik. Die eenvoud van alles vind ons verfrissend en is baie bly daar is geen groot TV-skerm nie.

Excellently comfortable, no TV which was a plus!

It is a very quiet part of the town and accommodation is very private. There are no shared areas and one feels comfortable. We found the simplicity of everything refreshing and we were happy there was no big TV screen.

Iets anders, baie aandag aan detail en besonderse gasvryheid!

Ons het heerlik gebly. Die koninggrootte-bed met luukse perkallinne was 'n bederf. Die plekkie is goed toegerus vir 'n stil wegbreek. Daar is egter nie 'n mikrogolf, stoof of TV.

Something different, lots of attention to detail and exceptional hospitality!

We had a great stay. The king-sized bed with luxurious percale linen was a treat. This place is well equipped for a quiet getaway. However there is no microwave, stove or TV.

Karoo Scense 's response

Hi, ek is so bly jul lekker gekuier. Ongelukkig is ons plekkie nie uitgerus vir 'n stoof of mikrogolf oond nie, op ons webtuiste noem dit wat beskikbaar is. Ons 2de plek sal wees met 'n stoof en mikrogolf oond en 'n TV bied ons nie aan nie, want mense kom om weg te breek van 'n TV ensovoorts.

Mooi bly
Vriendelike groete
Brita

Baie lekker en het baie tuis gevoel.

Ek het vir 20 jaar naby Prins Albert op 'n plaas gewoon en dit was vir my heerlik om weer daar te kuier. Ons het dadelik weer tuis gevoel daar.
