Lilac Lodge / Purple House

Gerieflik, goeie waarde vir geld!

Baie vriendelike en hulpvaardige personeel. Geriewe is netjies en skoon.

Very relaxed.

Nice place to stay and very cosy.

Heerlike speelarea, eenheid en toebehore binne vuil, nie 3-ster.

Susan was baie vriendelik met ons aankoms, geen probleme met inboek. Die tuin, speelare en swembad was mooi, veilig en kinders het dit baie geniet. Die eenheid binne was 'n ander storie: een lig asook muurprop se bedrading was foutief, eetgerei en oondjie het nog stukke kos en olie van vorige gaste gehad, vatdoeke/bankkussings/komberse en beddegoed was stowwerig met vlekke op. Kraanwater is nie drinkbaar nie blykbaar, maar moes dit by die hulp hoor, so vat maar eie water. Nie baie beïndruk vir die prys en 3-sterre nie.

Kamer was reg toe ek arriveer het. Slegs een nag oor gebly.

Gasvrou baie vriendelik. Ontbyt was lekker en woning baie interesant met baie oudhede.

Pragtige tuin, lekker oorgeslaap.

Badkamers en kombuis kan opgeknap word. Geen plastiek-eetware vir kinders nie. Oulike speelplek en lekker swembad.

Aangenaam.

Lilac Lodge is maklik om te kry.

Too noisy

The N3 was closed at Harrismith and all southbound traffic was diverted via Bergville and Winterton to rejoin the N3 at Estcourt. My room was no more than 30 meters from the road and massive truck traffic throughout the night made sleep impossible.

Value for money, cosy room with adequate amenities and friendly hosts.

Cosy well laid out room with an adequate small kitchenette with a TV and enough blankets for the cold. Would recommend Lilac Lodge/Purple House to fellow travellers.

Van korte duur.

Die kamer was vuil en my seun het vir 'n ander kamer gevra. Die tweede was skoner maar 'n half ge-ete quiche het daar rondgelê. Al was daar reeds vir die nag betaal is hulle daaruit en het by ons kom oornag in Bergsig.

Perfect overnight accommodation.

Enjoyed both stays to and from Hibberdene. Friendly, efficient management and staff.

Aangename ondervinding. Skoon plek, mooi tuin.

Dit was 'n baie aangename ondervinding. Skoon en netjiese huisie met 'n baie mooi tuin. Verkeer bietjie lawaaierig soos die trokke op die pad verby ry. Slegs as oornagpunt gebruik maar het alles gehad wat benodig was!

Perfect overnight stay.

From Johannesburg, good place to stopover on your way to the coast.

Perfect overnight stay.

Enjoyable overnighter. Only comment: Needs a bit of maintenance with shower drainage and the ceiling fans needs to be checked.

Waarde vir jou geld, baie gasvry.

Gastehuis baie netjies beslis waarde vir jou geld.

Geen kommentaar

Vriendelike gasvrou.

Net ‘n oornagplek

Daar was beperkte beskikbaarheid op laat kennisgewing. Baie aangename gasvrou

Rustig, verkwikkend en aangenaam.

Pragtige omgewing, vriendelike ontvangs en gasvryheid. Kan hoogs aanbeveel word.

My one night stay was nice, the room was clean, secure for vehicle to park, H had a good night's rest.

Was good value.

Mooi groot eenheid.

Mooi groot woonstel, geskik vir 6 naby middel van die dorp. Skoon en netjies, goeie oorslaap plek.

Lovely home.

Nice and central to Drakensberg and all its attractions. All the facilities for a nice visit. Enough space for everyone.

Felt like my own home.

After we were done moving my daughter's things, it was a wonderful, safe and peaceful evening where we could just relax. Everything was neat and clean and value for money. I would really recommend it to my friends and family.

Well rested because there was no disturbance that bothered.

I was very kindly received and immediately they made me feel at home. The mattress slept wonderfully and that is why I felt so good the next morning.

Wonderful stay, but the beds need to be replaced, as incredibly hard and dipped in the middle. The stove plates took an age to heat up to a mild simmer.

Wonderfully old main house with lots of character. Our cottage was clean and neat. Suzanna was a wonderful hostess. Our double bed definitely needed replacing as it was most uncomfortable. The stove plates also took forever to heat to a mild simmer. But had a great weekend.

Clean and neat. The owner was very friendly and helpful.

The place was clean, neat and much bigger than I expected. The owner was very friendly and gave us a map of the area and on the map all the nice places to eat and attractions were indicated, which made it easy to find our place. Overall it was a very nice stay and I would definitely recommend it.

Lekker ruim met 'n plattelandse atmosfeer.

Thule se vriendelike ontvangs en hulpvaardigheid het ons dadelik welkom laat voel. Die geriewe is pragtig uitgelê, maar van die vertrekke het 'n bietjie opknapping nodig. Die swembad en lapa is 'n besliste pluspunt, asook die sentrale ligging van die akkommodasie.

The lodge is very nice.

I had a good night's sleep at the lodge, had the pleasure of the electric blanket. The lodge is convenient in that it is on the main road, one does not have to go out of town to get to the lodge. I would like to thank the manager who waited for me to arrive as I arrived past 22:00. Thank you for the comfort afforded to me at this lodge.

Het soos my eie huis gevoel.

Baie hartlik ontvang. Sommer dadelik tuis gevoel. Susan het 'n kaart voorsien en ons goed ingelig oor doen- en sien-dinge in die omgewing. Kaggel was 'n wenner!

Neat and peaceful.

Neat and peaceful, without any disturbances.

Was goed, privaat.

Het meer verwag soos beskryf is oor die plek. Was nie 'n losstaande eenheid, soos gesê is nie.

'n Voldoende ingerigte instansie wat voorsien aan die reisiger se behoeftes.

Die geriewe wat gebied word is netjies en voldoende (alhoewel komplimentêre koffie in die eenhede dalk 'n goeie idee sal wees). Pragtige tuine wat 'n moeë reisiger gou laat ontspan. Oulike speelplek vir kinders en vir die fiksheid-bewustes is daar oefen geriewe beskikbaar (goeie idee!). Baie dankie.

Very enjoyable with a tranquil atmosphere.

We really enjoyed staying there and getting to know the area. Susan is very friendly and helpful. Will go there again!

We had a very nice stay!

The hostess was very nice. Our room was clean and neat and the breakfast was delicious!

Die verblyf was uitstekend.

Ons het eintlik net daar geslaap maar dit was baie goed geleë, rustig, veilig en niemand het ons enigsins gepla nie.

Baie vriendelik en goeie waarde vir geld.

Kan aanbeveel. In baie mooi omgewing en baie gasvry.

Goed geleë en baie netjies en alles wat jy nodig het.

Baie goed geleë indien jy op pad is na die Drakensberge. Baie netjies en skoon.

Snoesig, wonderlik.

Verblyf was wonderlik. Lekker snoesig geslaap.

Comfortable, spacious and reasonably priced.

Accommodation was very spacious with separate bedroom/bathrooms, and a nice lounge. Braai are at the back of the cottage. Big garden with lots of facilities for the children. Well located for the Bergs trips out. Good breakfast available to start the day. Comfortable and well priced.

Had a great stay.

Safe, neat and clean.

So so.

I was downgraded to a smaller (less comfortable) room, was a bit disappointing, but I expected the guesthouse to at least lower the price (or maybe just a breakfast or something to compensate) but nothing. Still as the grave!

I didn't get the room I booked.

I won't stay there again. You don't get what you book.

Enjoyed the stay and sleep.

Friendly reception, room neat and clean. Close to shops. Would've appreciated WiFi.

Neat, comfortable, and peaceful accommodation.

The Purple House is well located close to shops and eateries, and yet it is peaceful and set in a beautiful garden. Fully equipped, neat and comfortable.

Baie aangenaam met katjies om jou geselskap te hou!

Baie goed ontvang deur gasvrou en volle inligting verskaf oor besienswaardighede in en om Winterton.

Peaceful and welcoming. Exceptional unit with all the facilities you need in a unit such as this.

Peaceful area. The unit is very well equipped and well maintained. Friendly reception, etc.

Good value for money.

My parents stayed here on 23 and 28 October and enjoyed it very much. They especially mentioned how friendly Susan was! On the 23rd they had an unfortunate incident where the lawn mower made a rock hit the passenger window of their car. It could have happened anywhere and Susan compensated them for the damage. Thank you again for everything, we will definitely be back!

Neat, and great location.

The reception was friendly. The unit fulfilled our requirements 100%. It was neat, equipped with everything we needed.

Lovely, peaceful experience, simply wonderful.

Our stay at Lilac Lodge/Purple House was a wonderful experience. The accommodation is neat, friendly reception, and the breakfast was a nice surprise. Very peaceful atmosphere created, and anyone will be able to relax and explore the Winterton area from this base.

Homely atmosphere and spacious kitchen, comfortable accommodation. The place has potential if it gets some TLC.

Maintainance needs attention. Doors don't close properly, few bulbs obsolete, windows don't close properly, place mats dirty, stains on carpet on the way to bedrooms.

An excellent place to stay.

Purple House is a lovely place. Highly recommended stay.

Good value for money.

Very friendly service. The place is neat and safe. Very good value for money.

Unfriendly and disappointing.

We booked a free standing, 2 bedroom, self-catering cottage and were initially given a single room with a 4-poster bed. We were told that the owner of the guest house was away and that that was what was allocated to us and that there was nothing else available. It was only after speaking to an agent that the owner was prepared to give us another small room with 2 single beds - no self-catering. A very unsatisfactory experience.

Voorwaar aangenaam. Baie netjies en modern met 'n wonderlike atmosfeer.

Vandat ons gearriveer het tot ons huistoe is, was ons net met gasvryheid en liefde behandel. Alles was net perfek.

Baie aangenaam en skoon.

Sien die sterre.

Uitstekende verblyf en waarde vir geld.

Ons het lekker gebly en was beïndruk met gasvryheid sowel as akkommodasie met 'n kaggel. Sal beslis die akkommodasie aanbeveel en indien moontlik weer daar gaan bly.

Net oornag, maar baie vriendelik ontvang, als baie mooi, skoon en netjies.

Die tweeslaapkamerhuisie was baie gerieflik, skoon, netjies en ons het als gehad wat ons benodig.

Sal beslis weer daar oorbly.

Ons het heerlik, gerieflik gebly. Alles was baie mooi skoon en netjies.

Nice place for an overnight stay.

However, I would have prefered a better DStv package.

Een nag oorbly op pad na KZN.

Baie aangename omgewing, vriendelike ontvangs. Uiters netjies en beslis waarde vir geld. Sal beslis aanbeveel vir enige reisiger.

Magnificent

The host was friendly and the venue was superb!

Wonderlike gasvryheid van eienaar en het dadelik tuis gevoel.

Ons was op pad Dragon Peaks Mountain Resort toe en het 'n dag vroeër vertrek as beplan en het gesoek na 'n gastehuis op pad soontoe. Ek het toe The Purple House nageslaan en dit baie oulik gevind. Ek het 3 dae vooraf bespreek en het akkommodasie gevind. Baie dankie aan LekkeSlaap vir die spoedige terugvoer en kan die webblad vir enigiemand voorstel. Julle diens is puik!

Heerlike verblyf in Lilac Lodge.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier en die eenheid was baie netjies, smaakvol toegerus en silwerskoon. Dit is redelik privaat en bied genoeg spasie tussen ander eenhede.

Pragtige en romantiese kamer. Diens was uitstekend en die vriendelikheid van die eienaar.

By aankoms was die eienaar baie hulpvaardig en vriendelik. Sy het selfs uitgevra na ons planne vir die naweek, en het plekke aanbeveel waarheen ons kon gaan. Ons het ook 'n kaart ontvang van die omliggende gebied wat baie gehelp het. Wat die verblyf self aanbetref, ons was baie beïndruk met die kamer wat ons gekry het. Ideaal vir ons rede vir die naweek weg. Die kamer het by aankoms 'n fantastiese reuk gehad wat regtig indrukwekkend was. Ek sal Lilac Lodge & Lekkeslaap aanbeveel vir almal wat ek ken, en het eintlik al klaar!

Had enjoyable stay with friendly people

Lovely accommodation. Service great, as is value for money.

Aangenaam verras en het dit baie geniet.

Sal weer besoek aflê wanneer ons in daardie omgewing kom.

Warm welcome, great first impression. Comfortable stay and excellent nights sleep. Thanx

My sister and I had a fun time in the purple house - always visited the purple house in Kei Mouth, Eastern Cape and this stay sure brought back some wonderful, old memories.

We had such a wonderful stay

Lilac lodge is a quiet and beautiful place, suitable for the whole family, we had such a wonderful time and would go back there anytime.

What a nice place

Lilac Lodge is a great place to stay at.

Amazing place to stay

Great people, great place, great area, and makes for a very memorable holiday!

Perfect position to visit surrounding attractions

I enjoyed my stay tremendously! Very friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely visit Lilac Lodge again, but not alone next time! :)
