Ongelooflik.

Wonderlike, behulpsame en puik gasvrou en haar gesin. Verblyf self was super mooi, gerieflklik en in 'n pragtige omgewing. Ons sal vir seker terug wees.

Absolutely amazing!

We travel regularly for business and this is the first place I am excited about. The accommodation was amazing, truly felt like a hideaway as the name suggests, the hosts are so friendly and accommodating and the food is just out of this world. We have found our forever accommodation when we come to PE again, without a doubt. Do we have to go home, that's all I want to know.

Lekker.

Die Lily Pond en bospaadjie is heerlik om by te ontspan.

Fantastic and tranquil.

It's a home away from home. Peaceful and beautiful. The owners are very sweet, friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Baie vriendelike en besorgte gasvryheid.

Lieflike rustige ligging in die bos en baie bedagsame gasvrou wat baie seker maak jy is konstant ingelig en nie verontrief nie. Groot bonus is die gesamentlike lapa wat tot op die fynste detail toegrus is vir 'n baie aangename verblyf of kampvuur.

Very friendly and concerned hospitality.

Lovely peaceful location in the forest and a very considerate hostess who makes sure you are constantly informed and not inconvenienced. A big bonus is the joint lapa, which is furnished down to the finest detail for a very pleasant stay or campfire.

Bang en nat.

Sal ongelukkig nie aanbeveel vir enige iemand nie. Ons het onveilig gevoel want dit is letterlik op die pad en daar was nie genoeg beligting wanneer ons laat by die huis gekom het nie. Die kamer het die heeltyd geruik na "muf" want ek dink nie dit word oopgelos nie. Die eienaar moet invest in 'n extractor fan of iets, want die beddegoed het die hele tyd nat gevoel. Ek het een dag my klere op die bed gelos en toe ons by die huis kom was my klere nat.

Translate to English.

Scared and wet.

Unfortunately would not recommend to anyone. We felt unsafe because it is literally on the road and there was not enough lighting when we got home late. The room smelled "musty" all the time because I don't think it is left open. The owner should invest in an extractor fan or something, because the bedding felt wet the whole time. One day I left my clothes on the bed and when we got home my clothes were wet.

Short but very sweet.

We arrived quite late from Cape Town so we didn't get to enjoy the day there, but what we can tell you is the hospitality we arrived to was unmatched. Communication with the host was seamless before arrival. The host met us in the rain and showed us our stunning room. In conversation we mentioned how we forgot to buy wine in Cape Town and he so kindly gave us a bottle from his private cellar which was just a beautiful gesture. The décor was absolutely stunning, pictures don't do it justice, all round we had a beautiful evening and everything was catered for. Due to the water shortage in the area we were not able to use the bathtub which was sad as we really looked forward to it after such a long drive, but the hot shower and good pressure was a good substitute. Thank you very much, we plan on staying longer next time we travel.

Beautiful, peaceful venue out in nature. Absolutely loved it.

We booked out the 3 rooms as a big family to celebrate my father's 70th birthday. Beautiful, clean lapa facilities and lovely rooms, 1 being pet friendly too. Wonderful host and staff. Came from JHB and it was good to be back home in PE at a lovely, peaceful venue. Perfect place for a little breakaway or celebration.

'n Wonderlike plekkie vir die wat 'n bietjie in die stilte wil verdwyn. Baie ontspannend.

'n Plekkie waar jy ten volle net kan "Netflix en Chill" in die stilte en skoonheid van die natuur.

Teleurstellend.

Baie beknop en ysig koud, definitief nie 'n goeie keuse in die winter nie, foto's baie misleidend.

Verras en baie beïndruk.

Ons het 'n heerlike 2 aande hier gebly en die gasheer en gasvrou is albei baie vriendelike en behulpsaam. Die kommunikasie is deeglik en ons sal definitief L'auberge weer besoek en aanbeveel. Hulle is hondevriendelik wat vir ons natuurlik nog 'n bonus was. Puik verblyf tussen die bome en dit voel of jy in die natuur is, pragtig!

Surprised and very impressed.

We stayed here for a lovely 2 nights and the host and hostess are both very friendly and helpful. The communication is thorough and we will definitely visit and recommend L'auberge again. They are dog friendly which was another bonus for us of course. Great accommodation among the trees and it feels like you are in nature, beautiful!

Baie lekker, rustige naweek-wegbreek om net te vergeet van die gejaag van die lewe.

Net 15 min buite die stad en jy voel soos in die middel van die wildernis.

Do not compare to other reviews.

Room was permeated with musty smell. DStv didn't work - we did report it next day. Would recommend them for larger groups or family but not for romantic getaways.
