Pragtige uitsig.

Baie lekker gebly - pragtige uitsig. Twee dinge: Ons kon nie 'n sleutel vind om die glasdeur te sluit nie, of 'n skakelaar om die buiteliggie af te sit nie.

Beautiful view.

Very nice stay - beautiful view. Two things: We couldn't find a key to lock the glass door, or a switch to turn off the exterior light.

Rustig en gerieflik.

Die verblyf was goed ingerig en 'n wonderlike ligging. Die beddegoed en kombuise is lieflik, asook die kaggel en kuierareas. Sal graag weer daar wil bly.

Pragtige uitsig en het die aand heerlik gebraai.

Het een aand oorgeslaap - was oppad van Gauteng na Noord Kus. Het die Umgeni-kamer geneem aangesien ons 4 mense was (2 x dubbelbed). Was perfek vir die familie.

Beautiful view and had a great barbecue in the evening.

Slept over one night - was on my way from Gauteng to the North Coast. Took the Umgeni room as we were 4 people (2 x double bed). Was perfect for the family.

Comfortable, clean and neat. Perfect place for a night stop-over.

Loved the Old Rearsby and the view. Just a pity there wasn't anywhere to eat, except at the hotel. Next time we will definitely bring our own food. The kitchen is small but practical for a single night. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Cold

We enjoyed the breakfast, the electric blankets and the heater in the bathroom. The fireplace was nice however we struggled to get it lit the second night. The place was just too cold and we struggled with the door. All in all in a good location.

Beautiful countryside accommodation.

Beautiful countryside accommodation with all the luxuries for a comfortable night's stay. There is a fireplace in the bedroom and electric blankets on the bed, you will never get cold! The view is spectacular, calming you and putting you back down to earth. The staff was very friendly and we had a delicious breakfast.

Het net een nag oorgebly vir besigheid in Mooirivier.

Wat 'n ongelooflike ervaring. Rustig, stil en veilig met alles wat 'n besoeker sal nodig hê en boonop 'n warm ontvangs ook.

Groot en gerieflike kamers.

Kamer no 1 is groot, elegant en baie netjies. Adele en span het ons dadelik tuis laat voel. Heerlike aandete geniet en die ontbyt was ook uit die boonste rakke. Ons perfekte halfpadmerk tussen Pretoria en Ballito.

Made a very tough trip bearable and easy.

I will definitely go back, it was the kind visit where your soul finds you. If you want quite great views and blue sky this is the place. The WiFi needs a bit of help in range and speed but is practical for standard cell use. (Good for a hide away, not so good for an addict like me.) Overall just an amazing place.

Perfekte rusplek na die Comrades Marathon.

Ons het in 2013 by Old Rearsby oorgebly en het spesifiek teruggegaan omdat ons dit so geniet het. Die een kamer was reg. Die tweede kamer was nie voorberei vir gaste nie. Daar was koffie, maar geen melk of suiker nie. 'n Ketel, maar nie 'n stoof nie. Ons moes in die ander kamer kookwater maak vir koffie. Daar was ook geen water in die een kamer nie en ons moes almal in die ander kamer stort. Verder nie regtig klagtes nie, maar advies vir die bestuur. Met ons aankoms was daar niemand by ontvangs nie. Die selfoon is nie geantwoord nie, die landlyn is nie geantwoord nie en die kamers was nog gesluit. Ons was gestrand totdat Brian die ander gaste kom help het wat ook 'n probleem gehad het en ons hom toevallig raakgesien het. Wat die sekuriteit aanbetref weet ek nie wat die risiko's daar is nie. Dit is baie oop en blootgestel.

Perfect resting place after the Comrades Marathon.

We stayed at Old Rearsby in 2013 and went back specifically because we enjoyed it so much. The one room was ok. The second room was not prepared for guests. There was coffee, but no milk or sugar. A kettle, but not a stove. We had to boil water for coffee in the other room. There was also no water in one room and we all had to shower in the other room. Furthermore, not really complaints, but advice for management. When we arrived there was no one at reception. The mobile phone was not answered, the landline was not answered and the rooms were still locked. We were stranded until Brian came to help the other guests who also had a problem and we happened to spot him. As for the security, I don't know what the risks are. It is very open and exposed.

Sal dit aanbeveel.

Die ligging is baie goed, maar die pad wat na Old Rearsby lei, is vol slaggate. Die woning is elke dag skoongemaak en dis goed toegerus. Verblyf was aangenaam en netjies alhoewel daar herstelwerk nodig is aan toilet (sitplek stukkend) en yskas (maak nie koud nie).

Would recommend it.

The location is very good, but the road leading to Old Rearsby is full of potholes. The house is cleaned every day and is well equipped. Stay was pleasant and tidy although repairs are needed to toilet (seat broken) and fridge (doesn't get cold).

Sal Old Rearsby vir enige iemand aanbeveel - baie gemaklik en gerieflik en luuks ingerig - net jammer ons het een nag oorgebly! Baie dankie vir die heerlike verblyf, waar die viervoetkinders ook welkom was!
