Tuine is pragtig en alles is so rustig.

Ek het probleme gehad met kommunikasie. TV het glad nie gewerk nie, maar daar is 3x aan my gesê dat iemand oppad is om dit reg te maak, maar niemand het opgedaag nie. Sekere muurproppe het skielik nie gewerk nie, alhoewel die ligte aan was. Eers later die boodskap ontvang dat dit loadshedding was. Dit was onaangenaam om elke keer te rapporteer en niks gebeur nie.

Gardens are beautiful and everything is so peaceful.

I had problems with communication. TV didn't work at all, but I was told 3 times that someone was on their way to fix it, but no one showed up. Certain wall plugs suddenly didn't work, even though the lights were on. Only later received the message that it was loadshedding. It was unpleasant to report every time and nothing happens.

Hidden gem.

We had a wonderful peaceful stay at La Bastide Lavender cottage. What a beautiful place. The gardens are spectacular, the facilities were good. The pool was lovely. The view of the mountain is incredible. Perfect place if you are wanting to do a trip around Harties Dam.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, die swembad was skoon en altyd tot ons beskikking.

Die personeel was vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Die pad in en uit kan net 'n probleem word indien daar twee voertuie by mekaar verby moet ry.

La Bastide is 'n pragtige skoon eenheid. Baie meer gekry as wat ons verwag het. Zodwa is 'n gem. Die natuurskoon en berge gee rustigheid. Sal enige tyd weer terug gaan. Ligging is ook ideaal.

Ons het heerlik ontspan. Dis 'n pragtige, rustige omgewing. Die tuine en huisies is besonder mooi en huislik.

Die enigste probleem was dat die eienaars en personeel nie by die personeel is na 17.00 nie. Dit maak dit effens moeilik om die spesifieke huis op te spoor aangesien die huise nie gemerk is nie. Die eienaar het in die week 'n boodskap gestuur om te see inbook is voor 17.00. Na my mening is dit iest wat voor bespreking genoem moet word aangesien baie mense werk en nie so vroeg daar kan wees nie.

We had a great time relaxing. It's a beautiful, peaceful environment. The gardens and cottages are particularly beautiful and homely.

The only problem was that the owners and staff are not with the staff after 17.00. This makes it slightly difficult to locate the particular house as the houses are not marked. The owner sent a message during the week to see inbook before 17.00. In my opinion this is something that should be mentioned before booking as many people work and cannot be there that early.

My stay at La Bastide was good. It was neat and clean.

We experienced a few things that need to be fixed. The basin was loose. The wooden face cloth rack is loose. We saw a few spiders in the room and bathroom. The globe outside on the stairs is dark, making it a bit difficult to use the stairs at night. We could not use the WiFi as it was only available in certain rooms. So those were the only minor issues.

Beautiful, pragtig mooi en rustig.

Baie lekker gekuier, goed geleë, beslis die moeite werd. Voëllewe en naglewe bekorend met 'n vuurtjie. Skoon en netjies. Housekeeping was baie behulpsaam. Heerlike 2 - 3 km stap in die omgewing. Alhoewel daar 'n oulike koffiemasjien was was daar geen koffie vir die filterkoffiemasjien nie. Daar was egter sakkies koffies, tee en suiker. Baie dankie, julle stoep is heerlik, sou graag die opsie wou hê van 'n houtjie op die vuur. Housekeeping was baie gaaf om te help.

Although there was a nice coffee machine there was no coffee for the filter coffee machine. However, there were bags of coffees, tea and sugar. Thank you very much, your porch is lovely, would like to have the option of a log on the fire. Housekeeping was very nice to help.

Familiekuier in rustige atmosfeer.

Kamers en badkamers baie netjies en skoon. Van die kamers lyk beter as in foto's, so vermoed daar was onlangs verbeterings. Lekker speelarea vir kinders en groot grasperk vir piekniek. Melk en botteltjies water in yskaste was aangenaam. Kyk dalk net na sout- en peperhouer opvul. Maar het dit vreeslik geniet.

Family outing in a peaceful atmosphere.

Rooms and bathrooms very neat and clean. Some of the rooms look better than in photos, so suspect there have been recent improvements. Nice play area for children and large lawn for picnics. Milk and bottles of water in fridges were pleasant. Maybe just look at salt and pepper shaker refills. But really enjoyed it.

Lieflike Harties rustigheid.

Baie dankie vir pragtige fasiliteit. Enigste punt van kritiek en moontlike aanbeveling kan spruit uit ongemak om in en uit die landgoed te beweeg. Stelsel rondom oop- en toemaak van hoofhek is nie heeltemal effektief nie.

Awesome experience.

David was great at informing me on certain aspects regarding my stay at La Bastide. Zodwa prepared the electric blanket before we got ready for bed as well as charged the light for us way before load shedding hit the area, I'm so impressed, amazed and blessed to have encountered such amazing souls at La Bastide, the place is so tranquil. I would definitely go back there again.

Beautiful location and unit. Not so clean.

The gardens and the unit are gorgeous. The shower is dark and dirty with black mold everywhere. Shower head hardly works and hot water comes and goes. The kitchen is poorly stocked with only a few white sugar, black tea and coffee sachets in dirty, old, broken, plastic tubs. No washing up stuff to clean the 2 coffee cups for morning coffee. Water sits in rusty sink with only a hot water tap. Dusty, dark and cold, but at least there is an oil heater which helps. Hand soap and cream nearly empty in bathroom.

La Bastide 's response

We thank the guest for the comments regarding the gorgeous garden and unit. Every effort is taken to ensure the cleanliness of rooms prior to occupation and inspections are carried out to this end. Concerning the shower rose, it was replaced recently and the geyser was replaced only one week ago. Loadshedding certainly presents challenges with ensuring that hot water is always available on demand, this is regrettable and we apologize for any inconvenience. Single rooms do not have kitchens, they are not intended to be self-catering units. However, utilities such as a microwave and a bar fridge are provided for the convenience of guests, as are a limited supply of coffee sachets, tea bags, sugar, and guest toiletries. We have followed up on the specific observations of the guest and where actions can be taken to remedy issues, this will be done.

Rus en vrede.

Ons het al verskeie kere by La Bastide tuis gegaan en was nog nooit teleurgestel nie. Ons het gemerk dat daar so paar verbeterings aangebring is. Dit is waarlik 'n gastehuis wat ons weer en weer sal besoek en ook aanbeveel. Nêrens ander kry mens soveel gerief in eenvoud, die mooiste tuin en uitsig en baie rus en stilte. Sien julle binnekort weer!

Baie gerieflik, netjies en skoon.

Net 'n voorstel. Miskien kan die webtuiste net ook noem dat daar trappe is na die eenheid toe. Ek het 'n knievervanging gehad en my vrou het ook knie-probleme en dit was bietjie moeilik om daar op te kom. Die personeel was egter baie behulpsaam en het gehelp met die tasse. David was baie gasvry en behulpsaam.

Had an amazing 3 days at La Bastide in the lavender cottage. The cottage was clean and spacious. Really enjoyed the view as the gardens are well kept. Totally relaxed while I was there with nobody. bothering us. It's close to all the activities you want. Big thanks to Zodwa for looking after us so well. One of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on. Would highly recommend this place to everyone.

They will have to get aircons in rooms. Very warm environment. Then they will also have to pay more attention to the overall cleanliness of rooms.

Aircons a requirement. Maybe apply more pest control. Lots of spiders and bugs. Spiders are very large. Also pay more attention to overall cleanliness of rooms. I understand loadshedding is out of their control, but they will have to offer alternative options for guests and just make sure there are lights in the evening when guests return from a function.

Dit is regtig 'n oulike plekkie om te bly, veral om Hartebeespoort Dam te gaan verken of as julle net 'n oornagplekkie benodig vir besprekings vir Bill Harrops' se lugballonekskursie! Hulle is so 7 km van die aanmeldingspunt af, gerieflik naby.

We spent just one night at La Bastide. It was clean and very basic, but had a few necessities missing.

We missed having Rooibos tea, there was only Ceylon tea, no dustbin in the bedrooms, all doors were very squeaky and noisy when opening and closing, handwash soap in bathroom was finished and the single beds were very creaky.

Baie gerieflik en bekostigbaar. Sal vir seker aanbeveel.

Selfoonopvangs was net sleg, wat gemaak het dat ons gesukkel het om eienaars te kontak om hek oop te maak.

Thank you for the very positive review which is highly appreciated.
The problems associated with load shedding have resulted in poor cell phone signals from time to time.
This is not usually a problem and hopefully will soon be dealt with by the service provider.

Waarde vir geld.

Dis ons tweede keer hier, een keer in 'n kamer en die keer in die self-catering unit. Dis baie oulik en waarde vir geld. Daar kan dalk net na intiem skoonmaak gekyk word (spinnerakke in die hoek van muur en dooie miere agter die bed) kan sien daar is 'n mierprobleem gewees, ons het ook miereiers gehad by die bedkassie ens. (weet nie of dit uit die dak geval het nie). Verder was dit baie lekker en baie mooi! Sal definitief weer daar boek. Baie grasperk vir kinders en speelarea (kan bietjie afgespoel word, baie vol stof) maar baie oulike plekkie vir 'n vinnige wegbreek.

Value for money.

It's our second time here, once in a room and once in the self-catering unit. It's very cute and value for money. Maybe only intimate cleaning can be looked at (cobwebs in the corner of the wall and dead ants behind the bed) can see there was an ant problem, we also had ant eggs by the bedside table etc. (don't know if it fell from the roof). Furthermore, it was very nice and very beautiful! Will definitely book there again. Lots of lawn for kids and play area (could be washed off a bit, very full of dust) but very cute spot for a quick getaway.

Lovely place, sadly they don't offer something as basic as an iron, leaving me with creased clothes. I cast my eye just underneath my bedside table and there was dust and a spider web. Lastly, some doors made squeaky sounds when you open and close them.

It was quiet and pretty. The unit we stayed in was cosy, but can do with a thorough cleaning, but I suppose it's alright for a few days.

Also has insects, mostly spiders and flies, again manageable for a few days but not ideal with little children who are scared of them. Would have liked to see a zapper or something else to help control the problem rather than bug spray which is again not healthy.

It's the kind of place you always want to go back to and wonder if such peace and safety really still exists.

Loved this place, so peaceful and staff and owners made us feel very welcome.

Room we stayed in (Honesuckle) was very comfortable. Room had a heater and electric blanket on the bed, so we could keep warm. The basic cutlery was also provided, such as a microwave, kettle, plates, glasses and knives and forks ─ all we needed for a quick break away. The views from the patio are stunning, we could park right next to our unit which was safe and the pool was also very clean and a lovely area to relax. Really enjoyed our stay. Only 1,5 km to Van Gaalen Cheese Farm for lunch and walking trails and not far at all from Aviators pub where we could watch the rugby.

Ons het net 1 aand oorgeslaap. Het dit baie geniet. Dit is 'n baie goeie basis om al die besienswaardighede wat die omgewing bied, vanaf te verken.

La Bastide 's response

We thank the guest for providing a review, much of which we are delighted is positive.
We are extremely concerned that the rating for customer service was poor as we are normally favourably rated on this aspect of the experience. Unfortunately no issues were raised by the guest during the stay.
We are aware that owing to the late arrival time of the guest as well as their movements over the weekend, that there was no interaction between the guest and staff on site, which is regrettable. It is our policy to interact with guests, but if circumstances do not permit this, it is an opportunity lost. We do follow up all visits with an email which, inter alia, invites guests to provide us with feedback . Unfortunately we have received no feedback directly from the guest.

Stunning.

Baie mooi en netjies, goeie diens en gawe mense. Net kommunikeer oor telefoon maar kan glad nie oor die diens kla nie. Perseel is mooi en netjies, baie rustig. Enigste negatiewe ervaring, ons kamer was onder 'n ander een, dis nie 'n probleem nie. Die probleem is dat die boonste kamer houtvloere het. So ons het heeltyd die mense bo ons gehoor praat en selfs elke beweging gehoor, veral as iemand loop natuurlik klink dit verskriklik. Ons kon nie inlê nie, want die mense bo ons was al vroeg op en besig so mens hoor alles. Sal definitief aanbeveel en ons sal selfs teruggaan, net een van die ander kamers boek.

Thank you for the positive rating and kind words. From time to time one does have guests who are not as considerate as one would hope for. The upstairs room is carpeted. It is regrettable that the guest`s experience was not a peaceful one. Given the exquisite setting, we do try and create an ambiance where tranquility is encouraged. We shall however take note of these comments and will request guests in the future to consider the guests below.

Perfect little cottage for a relaxing brakeaway, loved the desing of each unit, just awesome.

Our stay was perfect !! One concern with open concept and a view different venues on the same road. Just felt like anyone had access to roam free even if they don't stay at La Bastide. Perhaps also just add another safty door as our door didn't seem to lock very tight and sure that if you whanted to enter, it won't be that difficult. Other than this concern we will defenitly recomend it and even stay ourselves on a next bace.

Thank you for your review. While the overall rating given was well below what we would have liked, we note that you had an `awesome` time and that your only concern was the swimming pool.
We have a gardener who cleans the pool daily as well as on a Saturday. There have been storms over the past weeks and it is quite possible that the wind blew leaves from the tree. The pool has been checked subsequent to your stay and is sparkling.
We do apologize for the inconvenience.

Sadly, Eskom load shedding combined with a cable which was broken by a fallen branch off a tree on a neighbouring property combined to produce this unfortunate and entirely unexpected result, which we have not previously experienced, a sort of "Black Swan" event. We will give consideration to establishing a gas heating option as a stand by emergency for guests who have bookings in self-catering cottages.

Was able to relax, cycle, walk, visit surrounding restaurants and enjoy beautiful mountains.

Communication was not to our liking, as we did not realize the owner was not on site at all. Robin was busy with route as we did not read e-mail in time before departure which indicated the route. Ruth was there every day to hear if we needed something and very friendly. The day before our reservation I called La Bastide to find out if they might have room for my daughter and 3 children. Left a message on my cell phone. Didn't get any feedback, negative or positive. checked again at Lekke-Slaap but yes all units were fully booked. Next to us a double room was open the entire period. Neither we nor Ruth knew what was going on as no one arrived there and she put such beautiful lavender flowers down for guests! Thank you Lekke-Slaap for your SMS about the route. We were then already in contact with Robin. When we left we received a call and my husband mentioned that we were only two people as booked. The question on that was "Didn't your daughter come!?" THE WHOLE OLD LONG STORY JUST TO CLARIFY THAT COMMUNICATION WAS NOT GOOD. THANKS HOWEVER FOR A WONDERFUL BREAK.

Alhoewel daar 'n paar eenhede naby mekaar is, is mens nog steeds apart en in 'n baie rustige omgewing. Die tuin is lieflik met al die blombeddings en verskillende blomme. Die lavender-bosse is asemrowend! Nie iets wat mens elke dag sien nie. Eenheid binne was pragtig met ordentlike meubels en beddegoed ens. Sal definitief weer oorslaap.

Vriendelike diens in 'n pragtige area.

Baie aangename mense om mee te gesels. Heerlike, netjiese plekkie om te bly in 'n bittermooi natuurskoon omgewing. Sou dit vir seker aanbeveel vir 'n wegbreek.

Ons het een aand oorgeslaap en was baie tevrede.

Ons was in die oulike solderkamer. Baie netjies met mooi prente teen die mure. Ons het baie lekker oorgeslaap. Net 2 goedjies wat gepla het - die ketel kan gerus 'n langer koord kry. Ek moes hom op die vloer sit om by te kom. En ons was bietjie senuagtig vir die perdebynes onder by die trappe.

We slept over for one night and was very satisfied.

We were in the cute loft room. Very neat with nice pictures on the walls. We slept well. Just 2 bugs that have bothered - the kettle can get a longer cord. I because of the bee hives at the bottom of the stairs.

Dear Willem,

Thank you for the wonderful comments.

We shall attend to the cord immediately - apologies for the inconvenience caused.

We'll also look into the issue relating to the staircase and see what we can do to either remove the problem or improve the situation so that it is more acceptable.

Thank you for your review and comment on the beauty of the property. The surroundings and mountain view too are magnificent, a true blessing! The accommodation is spread between three blocks and the single rooms are close to each other, built as they are in one block and not as separate cottages. We have attempted to create privacy by the positioning of the rooms with different perspectives and views as well as separate porches. If the privacy of the rooms was found wanting, we do apologise for this deficiency.

Baie gasvry ontvang deur Gwen en haar man. Het heerlik geslaap in 'n pragtige kamer. Die rustige atmosfeer was 'n welkome verandering van gewone besige gastehuise. Ons het heerlik gekuier. Sal definitief aanbeveel en teruggaan indien ons weer in daardie omgewing moet oorslaap.

Was 'n rustige wegbreek en baie privaat.

Ons het 'n troue by Green Leaves bygewoon en ek kon reël om vroeër in te teken sodat ons by die gastehuis kan regmaak vir die funksie wat baie gerieflik was. Die kamer was baie mooi en netjies. Die verwelkoming was baie warm. Robin, die dame wat instaan vir Gwen, het al van vroeg die oggend af met ons gekommunikeer om seker te maak die inklok is so vinnig en maklik as moontlik. Ons het ook gesukkel om bewys van betaling deur te stuur en die eienaar van die gastehuis was vriendelik genoeg om on bespreking te hou tot ek die bewys van betaling kon uitsorteer. Daar is ook gereeld gebel en gemail om seker te maak dat ek bewus is van die situasie. Puik werk!

Was a peaceful getaway and very private.

We were attending a wedding at Green Leaves and I was able to arrange to check in earlier so we could get ready at the guest house for the function which was very convenient. The room was very nice and tidy. The welcome was very warm. Robin, the lady standing in for Gwen, communicated with us from early in the morning to make sure check-in was as quick and easy as possible. We also had trouble sending proof of payment and the owner of the guest house was kind enough to hold the reservation until I could sort out the proof of payment. There were also frequent calls and emails to make sure I was aware of the situation. Great job!

We really appreciate the positive review and that we have scored very well on such important issues relating to service and security. We are blessed with a beautiful location and that being in the heart of Hartbeespoort/Skeerpoort, we have close proximity to wedding venues, restaurants and so many other activities.
We are very conscious of the need to be price sensitive and competitive and in this regard are now entering our third year without accommodation fees having been increased, although we shall need to review this in 2019 with a modest increase in March envisaged.

It was excellent and loved it!

We got there late on Friday (we were running Om die Dam ultra marathon) and Gwen was still awake and as friendly as ever. The place was in tip top condition and we were so pleased to get back after the marathon to find it spic and span again, we had left in a hurry and it was messy when we left! We also asked to stay longer because we were exhausted and once again, this was no problem for Gwen. We eventually left at 15:00!

Definitely not worth the money I've spend.

When we first walked into the room, we immediately noticed that the cushion covers on the chairs (inside and outside) and the inside bench were stained and dirty. That made me worry about the bed linen. When we went to bed that night, I picked up my pillow only to find a small scorpion underneath it. The room was also infested with spiders. I did not sleep the entire night - I was too worried about what could crawl into bed with me. The shower was also full of cobwebs, so clearly it was not cleaned recently - definitely not before our stay there. I was really not impressed. Also, the walls are very thin - I could hear my neighbour snore the whole night. Definitely not a restful experience. What a waste of my money.

La Bastide 's response

Good day,

It is unfortunate that the guest had an unsatisfactory experience. It would have been helpful to have been shown the problems at the time. The cleaning procedures are meticulously adhered to with inspections carried out prior to the guest arriving. It is difficult to understand how a small scorpion could have got under a pillow on the bed. It is possible that overnight a `daddy long legs` spider common in the area could have started a web. However, specifically, inspections are directed in part to this very sort of occurrence, prior to a guest taking occupation of accommodation rented.

Most reviews received are positive. Much feedback is received directly from guests who have booked direct, and is almost always positive.

La Bastide is promoted as being `quirky` and `quaint` - that will not appeal to certain people. It occupies a niche and positions itself as a country house in the French old country style. It is a `value proposition` and most guests comment that it offers good value for money, in a beautiful location and well situated for weddings, which is the main custom of the guest house. Most guests find the décor very different to the `run of the mill` guest house offering, and as such enjoy the different experience. The proprietors have recently commenced a programme which entails a review of the `product offering`. It is also important to ensure that the guest house remains an affordable one to its client base, which generally comprises younger people and wedding attendees.

King regards,
La Bastide

Although there is no braai area the owner gave us her portable Weber braai to use, my only disappointment was that there wasn't a TV in the room, however, the time was well used for enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

Thank you very much.
Yes, it is a beautiful location in the valley and with a wonderful view of the mountains. So many experiences to be enjoyed in the Hartebeespoort area.
We are striving to improve the guest experience, and hope that over the next few months, we shall make progress in this regard.

Baie oulik, rustige atmosfeer, voel baie welkom!

Pragtige plekkie, mooiste dekor en mens voel baie welkom! Die atmosfeer is rustig en jy kan vir 'n slag asem skep! Baie gelukkig met die diens en ons het wel lekker geslaap! Veilige parkering, netjiese kamers en perfek vir oorbly na 'n troue.

Pleasant and comfortable accommodation.

A bit more water pressure would be nice.

Baie lekker geslaap, sal vir enige iemand aanbeveel.

Vriendelike ontvangs. Netjies en skoon. Alles wat jy nodig het, tot 'n verwarmer en elektriese kombers om lekker snoesig te slaap. Sal definitief weer La Bastide gebruik.
