Gemaklike oornagverblyf.

Kristalhelder swembad, lekker lapa-area en vele plekke in die tuin en op die stoep om te ontspan.

Comfortable overnight stay.

Crystal clear swimming pool, nice lapa area and many places in the garden and on the veranda to relax.

Goeie verblyf.

Ilze is 'n vriendelik gasvrou. Ek het 'n sak daar vergeet en hulle het my gebel om daarvan te sê. Groot waardering daarvoor.

Good stay.

Ilze is a friendly hostess. I forgot a bag there and they called me to say about it. Big appreciation for that.

Geruste nag.

Ons het die familie-eenheid en 'n dubbelkamer buite gehad vir die nag. Ons kon die braaigeriewe langs die swembad gebruik en Ilze het uit haar pad gegaan om ons kuiertjie lekkerder te maak. Ons het veilig gevoel en al die geriewe was baie netjies en skoon. Ons kan kan dit enige tyd aanbeveel.

Restful night.

We had the family unit and a double room outside for the night. We were able to use the braai facilities next to the pool and Ilze went out of her way to make our visit more enjoyable. We felt safe and all the facilities were very neat and clean. We can recommend it anytime.

Was baie lekker, net een ongerief: Die riool het by die drain uitgekom en ons slaap belemmer met die reuk.

Baie mooi plek. Baie veilig. Die personeel is baie vriendelik.

Vriendelike diens en naby besighede.

Hoewel ek per ongeluk my besprekingsdatum verkeerdelik met bespreking ingetik het, was die gasvrou baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig en my met `n ander paar opsies van kamers ingepas. Ons het heerlik gebly, hoewel dit naby die besighede is, was dit ook rustig en nie die gedruis van voertuie in jou ore nie, sy het my ook dadelik die volgende oggend na ons vertrek, geskakel en gesê dat ek my elektriese skeermes daar vergeet het. Baie dankie vir jou moeite. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Friendly service and close to businesses.

Although I accidentally entered my reservation date incorrectly when booking, the hostess was very friendly and helpful and matched me with a few other options of rooms. We had a great stay, although it is close to the businesses, it was also peaceful and not the roar of vehicles in your ears, she also called me immediately the next morning after we left and said that I had left my electric razor there . Thank you for your effort. Will definitely go again.

Waarde voor je geld!

Hippiegevoel, relaxed, mooie kamers, gezellig! Bij zonsondergang lekker in de sfeervolle tuin kunnen genieten van een wijntje en de vuurkorf! Geen ontbijt inbegrepen en geen eigen badkamer, maar hier kan je niet over klagen als je kijkt naar de prijs.

Value for you money!

Hippie vibe, relaxed, beautiful rooms, cosy! Chilled in the nice garden with a glass of wine next to the fire as the sun was setting! Breakfast is not included and you don't have your own room, but you can't complain about it if you take the price into account.

Baie unieke ondervinding!

Oorspronklik het ek en my ma per abuis die verkeerde eenheid bespreek in die hoofhuis met die gemeenskaplike badkamer - maar die eienaar het baie vinnig vir ons plan gemaak en ons laat ruil met 'n groep jongmense in die familie eenheid - ons was vreeslik dankbaar! Die eenheid self is interessant, en lyk tot 'n mate asof die doel was om soveel moontlik te hergebruik - die wasbak in die badkamer is uit klippe en klein teëltjies gemaak. Dit is baie oorspronklik maar nie vreeslik bruikbaar nie. Ons het die kombuiswasbak gebruik vir alles. Verder was ons baie gemaklik en ons het ons eie afstandbeheer gehad vir die hek.

Very unique experience!

Originally my mother and I mistakenly booked the wrong unit in the main house with the shared bathroom - but the owner very quickly made a plan for us and let us swap with a group of young people in the family unit - we were very grateful! The unit itself is interesting, and seems to some extent that the aim was to reuse as much as possible - the sink in the bathroom is made of stones and small tiles. It's very original but not terribly useful. We used the kitchen sink for everything. Furthermore, we were very comfortable and we had our own remote control for the gate.
