Dit is baie naby aan Kaapstad maar nie so baie verkeer nie. Lekker gebly.

Dit is goed vir baie wynplase se besoek. Kaapstad is binne bereik. Ons het lekker geswem om af te koel. Mense is baie gasvry. Die omgewing is omring deur berge. Die tuin is baie mooi en skep 'n rustige atmosfeer. Sal weer daar gaan bly. Dankie.

It is very close to Cape Town but not so much traffic. Nice stay.

It is good for visiting many wine farms. Cape Town is within reach. We had a nice swim to cool off. People are very hospitable. The area is surrounded by mountains. The garden is very beautiful and creates a peaceful atmosphere. Will stay there again. Thank you.

Gerieflik geleë vanaf trouvenue. Stil omgewing en heerlikste tuisgemaakte ontbyt.

Benita, die gasvrou, het ons rondom die ontbyttafel vertel van die omgewing en die geskiedenis. Alles was tuisgemaak en smaaklik. Kamers is baie ruim en skoon.

Conveniently located from wedding venue. Quiet surroundings and the most delicious homemade breakfast.

Benita, the hostess, told us around the breakfast table about the area and the history. Everything was homemade and tasty. Rooms are very spacious and clean.

Feels like a hotel instead of a B&B.

The owner of the B&B was only there for 5 minutes on our second day. No personal touch. The swimming pool was not clean, the garden and surroundings were also not clean.

Lumley's Place sal ons regtig kan aanbeveel!

Netjies, skoon en Benita en haar span het dit regtig aangenaam gemaak om by hulle tuis te gaan. Wat vir ons belangrik is, is 'n skoon, gerieflike bed, 'n lekker stort en gemaklike kussings. Het dit alles gekry. Ontbyt elke oggend was 'n treat. Was baie lekker om ook die mense van Pniel beter te leer ken! Vriendelike mense!

Baie dankie Magda dat ons gasvryheid uitgestaan het vir jou. Ek dank God dat Hy ons in Pniel, n vorige sendingstasie geplaas het. By Lumley's Place strewe ons elke oomblik om altyd die kamers netjies en warm hartlik asook die ontbyt voor te sit sodat u as gas absoluut tevrede sal wees. Hartlikheid loop immers deur n mens se maag - lekker kos , lekker glimlag. Ons is lekker gerieflik naby die meeste wynplase in Dwarsriviervallei of Bankhoekvallei gelee. Seeninge vir 2019

Friendly staff, our room was looking tired and needing some attention (Ghecko room).

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were a group of four staying there for a wedding at Boschendal. It's location was very convenient for us in that regard. The one room, the Ghecko room, needs some TLC. However the bed was very comfortable with great linen. The weather wasn't great the night we were there so we didn't get to enjoy the outside area and pool area. I did feel that our room was on the pricey side. Can't fault the staff though as they were great. It's just our room that needs some work to bring it back to what you would expect from a 4 star establishment.

Lumley's Place Guest House 's response

Dear Nicole
I humbly thank you for this review and you and your families stay at our establishment. I take all comments to heart and will send you a picture of the TLC done in the room. I will also send you a personal e-mail to assist me with your positive opinion as a traveller to assist with the TLC as we all see things different in life. Not much can be added in form of extra's as the room of 3.7 x 4 square meters consists of a king bed, built in cupboards coffee and tea station, small desk, 2 soft chairs and 2 footstools for luggage. I will however update the curtaining style and a more impressive headboard soon as a starter. Thanks for the full score for security and cleanliness and almost perfect for customer service, being a first generation family business we work all shifts and I was your waitron and chef for your stay and my sister in law booked you in. Yes the weather has taken a colder wintry turn lately and no one will be able to enjoy the poolside area until late spring. Thanking you.
God bless

Dear Ronel
Thank you for this review and assisting us in our growth as a first generation family tourism business. Lumleys Place B&B is truly central to most of the venues on our joining road R310 between Franschhoek and Stellenbosch. As for breakfast we do try to bring the village sort of lifestyle to the table with the home cooked jams, freshly home baked breads and sometimes garden picked seasonal fruits. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and that we delivered in order for you to have a joyous stay. God bless Benita

Net absoluut wonderlik!

Jy kan miskien net so 'n mooi plek in net so 'n mooi omgewing kry, maar om sulke gawe en vriendelike diens te kry op enige ander plek in die wêreld moet nog geëwenaar word. Ons het die hele bekende wêreld al deurkruis, vanaf Rusland tot hier, en moet nog die gelyke van Lumley's Place se diens kry.

Baie dankie oom Callie vir hierdie pragtige verwysing. Dankie dat ons jul verblyf fantasties en lekker vir julle kon maak. Ons het u gesprekke en advies verskriklik baie geniet veral met die beeldsending van die verhoor wat op die televisie gebeeldsend was. U kommentaar was iets om altyd te onthou en dankie vir oom en tannie se vriendelikheid en die mooi woorde oor ons diens en plekkie. U het my met nuwe oe na die jaarlikse WOW op Stellenbosch laat kyk.

It was fairly expensive for the area. The room was fine although a fan was required as it was extrememely hot. ALso the pool pump was noisy and continued thoughout the night. Food and service was very good.
