Not a good experience at all.

Infested with bats. Could not sleep. When I complained, it was said to me that bats are part of nature.

Nie wat ons verwag het nie.

Die eenheid was onnet toe ons ge-arriveer het, 'n hopie vullis het nog by die agterdeur gelê wat die skoonmakers vergeet het om uit te vat. Daar was dooie vlieë in die borde toe ek dit uit die kas gehaal het om te eet. Nie genoeg opskepbakke is voorsien nie asook 'n paar ekstra koffiebekers sou ook help. Daar is nie selfoonopvangs in die huis nie en ons het ook gesukkel om die volgende dag (Saterdag en die dag van my skoon-ma se begrafnis) opvangs te kry om vriende te laat weet waarheen om te ry om ons te kry. Ek kon ook nie die aanwysings deurgestuur kry wat Mark die vorige dag vir my gestuur het nie. (Ek verstaan dat die selfoonopvangs nie die verantwoordelikheid van die eienaar is nie, maar dit was 'n probleem om aanwysings aan die ander mense te gee).

Not what we expected.

The unit was unclean when we arrived, a pile of rubbish was still lying by the back door which the cleaners had forgotten to take out. There were dead flies in the plates when I took them out of the cupboard to eat. Not enough scoops were provided and a few extra coffee mugs would also help. There is no cell phone reception in the house and we also struggled to get reception the next day (Saturday and the day of my mother-in-law's funeral) to let friends know where to drive to find us. I also couldn't get through the directions that Mark sent me the day before. (I understand that the cell phone reception is not the responsibility of the owner, but it was a problem to give directions to the other people).

Baie lekker gewees, eers gereën en toe halfuur na ons daar aangekom het, het begin dit sneeu.

Baie mooi en skoon, dis 'n pragtige wêreld en maklik om te vind.

It was very nice, first it rained and then half an hour after we got there, it started to snow.

Very nice and clean, it's a beautiful world and easy to find.

Beste plek om af te sonder.

Baie oorspronklike akkommodasie (perdestal) - iets anders. Lekker om weg te kom van die wêreld se luukses. Al die basiese goed is daar wat jy nodig het. Die bestuurder is voorwaar ’n aanwins vir die plek.

Best place to isolate.

Very original accommodation (horse stable) - something different. Nice to get away from the world's luxuries. All the basics are there that you need. The manager is truly an asset to the place.

Lekker op die plaas.

Rustig plek. As jy op soek is na stilte en sit en niks doen. Dan is die net die plek vir jou.

Nice on the farm.

Quiet place. If you are looking for silence and sit and do nothing. Then the net is the place for you.

Ware rus vir jou siel.

Die hele plaas opset wat omskakel is in netjiese leefeenhede, skep 'n verrassende atmosfeer wat saam met die natuurskoon en vars lug 'n plek skep waar enige moeë reisiger se siel rus en vrede vind. Om 'n lang rit op te breek met 'n oornag-hawe met Summerhill, het vir ons meer gegee as wat ons verwag het. As jy een is vir die eenvoud van menswees en so bietjie will breuk met die gemak van die lewe wat mens so as vanselfsprekend aanvaar, is 'n dag of twee by Summerhill net die terapie vir jou.

True rest for your soul.

The entire farm layout, which has been converted into neat living units, creates a surprising atmosphere that, together with the natural beauty and fresh air, creates a place where any weary traveler's soul finds rest and peace. Breaking up a long drive with an overnight port with Summerhill gave us more than we bargained for. If you are one for the simplicity of being human and want to break with the ease of life that you take for granted, a day or two at Summerhill is just the therapy for you.
