Ta Mala's Self-Catering Cottages

Wonderlik, dankie!

Sien sterre.

Wat 'n wonderlike, skoon en netjiese plek om te bly.

Ons gasheer en gasvrou was baie vriendelik. Sal ons definitief weer sien as ons daai rigting gaan. Die selfsorg-eenheid het alles wat mens nodig het om gerieflik te bly. Baie dankie.

Baie gerieflike en mooi huisie. Ons het in Olyf gebly.

Olyf is stylvol en gerieflik gemeubileer. Stapafstand na die hoofstraat toe.

Oulike en unieke akkommodasie.

Ons het baie lekker gebly by Rooster cottage en sal beslis weer terugkeer. Regte waarde vir geld en alles baie mooi en skoon.

Beautiful place that complements the Karoo atmosphere. Friendly service.

One night is not enough, stay longer!

Peaceful, relaxing visit.

Beautiful, clean accommodation. Nice to experience old times again.

A small piece of heaven on earth.

This is the neatest, most incredible, well-kept place you can find. The most beautiful antiques. My children were happy and did not want to return. Everything you could possibly need is there, and the full-size fridge with the kids was most welcome. A must for any family. A piece of paradise!

Wonderlike ervaring.

Ons het in Meerkat gebly. Dit was 'n wonderlike ervaring. Eenheid het alles wat jy nodig het en is goed geleë naby alles in die dorp. Gasheer en gasvrou baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ons sal weer daar bly en kan Ta Mala aanbeveel vir enigiemand wat Prince Albert besoek.

Spesiale plekkie met goeie afwerking in 'n rustige area.

Die Meerkat cottage is perfek vir twee mense en ons sal beslis wil teruggaan. Die detail en afwerking waarmee die cottage restoureer was is baie spesiaal en sorg vir 'n unieke ervaring. Die cottage is net so twee blokke weg van die sentrale dorp waar meeste eetplekke geleë is so dit is maklik om rond te stap vanaf Ta Mala's. Erika was ook baie goed met kommunikasie wat bygedra het tot 'n lekker ervaring.

Very comfortable with nice splash pool and tastefully decorated living area self-contained.

Would definitely stay there again.

Lovely!

Great, friendly service! Cottages are beautifully neat. You will definitely see us again!

Gem in die Karoo!

Wat 'n ongelooflike plekkie in die Karoo! Prince Albert het 'n stukkie van ons harte gesteel. Ek, my man en 4 maande oue babatjie het daar oornag. Ons sal vir seker weer daar oornag, maar vir langer! Baie dankie Erika.

Lovely clean overnight accommodation!

We had a great stay at Ta Mala's, felt welcome from first moment, clean accommodation, lovely pool and all the self-catering amenities you need! Will definitely stay here again!

Pragtige gerestoureerde huisie van 300 jaar oud!

Lekker stil en rustig, mooi tuine en swembad in en om die gerestoureerde huis. Ons het dadelik tuis gevoel!

Lovely place, but noisy.

The cottage was lovely, clean and spacious. However, the noise coming from the loft's floor boards made sleeping quite difficult.

Spesiaal.

Erika en gesin het Ta Mala so perfek gerestoureer en dit reggekry om jul gaste so spesiaal te laat voel!

Idillies. Ongelooflik lieflik.

Ongelooflik pragtig. Kraakvars en so heerlik tuis. Erika het ons vriendelik ontvang en dadelik tuis laat voel. Kom kuier gerus. Dis 'n moet.

Heerlik en pragtig.

So karaktervol. 'n Juweel van 'n plekkie. Sal beslis weer by Ta Mala's kom bly!

Dit was ongelooflik lekker en baie mooi.

Dit is die beste gastehuis waarin ons al gebly het. Pragtig skoon en netjies en alles wat jy nodig het is daar. Erika was ongelooflik vriendelik en alles was net lekker daar sal vir seker teruggaan en dit aanbeveel.

Heerlik!

Almal was hulpvaardig, vriendelik en het baie moeite gedoen om dit vir ons as gesin so gerieflik moontlik te maak. Puik diens, pragtige plek. Ons kom beslis weer!

Baie aangename verblyf.

Baie vriendelik ontvang en was aangenaam verras en het werklik ons verblyf in die skoon en ruim gerieflike eenheid geniet. Ons sal beslis hierdie verblyf by ons familie en vriende aanbeveel.

Lovely and quaint.

Little step in hallway to lounge and bedroom was a nightmare death trap for us frail people as we tripped and fell before we put suitcases there to prevent it happening. Always having to be aware. Also, the braai grid was not clean. Also, I was concerned about no off-street parking, but no problem. Otherwise great accommodation.

Very pleasant two day stay, quiet and peaceful.

My daughter and I stayed for two nights. Lovely cottage with everything we needed for self-catering. Close to various restaurants, the hotel, galleries etc. Quiet area ─ we needed that, coming from Cape Town, both working in corporate environments! Enjoyable, definitely would recommend.

Cosy, clean and safe. Good value for money. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

A lovely well appointed cottage. Everything you need for self catering. Within walking distance of activities. Felt quite at home. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Unbelievable!

It was a very cozy place and Erika's service is incredible. The ladies who work at Ta Mala are so nice!

Egte Karoo-ervaring met styl.

Baie skoon en baie netjies verblyf! Die cottage is met baie mooi oudhede en allerhande oulike goed toegerus! Ek sal definitief weer hier bly!

Bekostigbare, goed toegeruste, eenheid met pragtige dekor.

Ons was aangenaam verras toe ons moeg vanaf die Weskus by Ta Mala's arriveer om te oornag. Volledige kombuis, badkamer met groot stort en bad. Deurgaans is gehaltelinne gebruik en verwarming is ook aan aandag gegee al was dit nie nodig om die elektriese kombers of lugversorging te gebruik nie. Wat egter indrukwekkend was, was om te leer hoe Ta Mala's tot stand gekom het en foto's te sien van hoeveel moeite in die restourasie ingesit is. As gereelde reisigers het ons nog nie van verblyf gebruik gemaak waar daar soveel moeite gedoen is met restourasie en dekor nie. Dis heerlik om in so huislike atmosfeer oor te bly, het gevoel asof ons die eienaars goed ken toe ons die volgende oggend vroeg vertrek het. Eenheid was pynlik netjies en natuurlik was die onderdakbraai vir my 'n bonus.

Karoo-styl op sy beste.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Gerieflik en smaaklik gemeubileer. Lekker blyplek vir 'n groep vriende wat hul eie spasie benodig. Naby die hoofstraat (en gin bar)!

Lovely.

We really enjoyed the time at Ta Mala's Meerkat unit. Neat, clean and adequate. Thank you very much.

Unbelievably beautiful! Enjoyed it a lot. Beautiful place.

Ta'Mala surprised me. Beautiful place with the prettiest decor. True Karoo feel. Clean, neat and fully equipped. Location is perfect and very safe. Swimming pool and very cosy patio where you can braai. Very good service from the owner.

Friendly reception, beautiful interior, lovely bed linen.

It was a lovely place to stay. If you travel with friends, make sure you book the two interleading units. Unfortunately we only stayed for one night and we will definitely recommend Ta Mala's to future guests. Clean, spacious, crafty interior and everything that was needed. The full size fridges were welcome - most places have bar fridges that can be quite problematic at times. Thank you for sharing this beautiful place with us.

'n Stukkie nostalgie!

Wanneer 'n mens deur die asemrowende omgewing van die Swartberge reis en onder die indruk kom van 'n ou-ou bergpas met sy stories van mense wat daaraan gebou het, en jy stop uiteindelik in Prins Albert voor 'n ou huis wat daardie selfde oudheid adem, voel jy klein en nietig en wil jy net vir 'n paar oomblikke stil wees en nadink oor die lewe van gister en eergister en vandag. Ons het die voorreg gehad om in die Meerkat-kamer tuis te gaan. Dit is oud. En luuks. Aangrypend. 'n Belewenis wat jy nie moet mis nie.

Great stay!

Everything we needed and very creatively decorated!

Great.

Very clean, neat and well-equipped. Good location.

Unbelievable.

I will definitely sleep there again. The place is beautiful. We slept in Windpomp, although we booked Meerkat. So we got a more luxurious unit because there was a cancellation.

Absoluut fantasties, pragtig en gerieflik!

Dis ons tweede naweek by Tamala. Erika is 'n uitstekende gasvrou! Die beddens is baie gerieflik en die linne is skoon en van goeie gehalte. Die kothuise is altyd eksie perfieksie, skoon en volledig toegerus, en daar is allerhande ekstras! Baie goeie ligging. Stapafstand van alles in Prins Albert!

Fantasties!

Doen jouself 'n guns en bespreek jou verblyf by Ta Mala's! Erika en span is baie professioneel en vriendelik! Dit was ons tweede keer in Ta Mala's en sal nooit ander verblyf in Prince Albert bespreek nie. Die huisie is goed versorg en toegerus met alles en nog wat jy sal nodig kry!! Die dekor is ongelooflik mooi! Bly 'n wenner!

Fully and exquisitely equipped with everything you need. Tasteful, artistic and the the character of the old house was kept.

See stars.

This was truly a first in such a treasured little house with a big heart!

My husband was sceptical at first when we arrived at the house, but a little while in the friendly atmosphere, I realised that I've seen Meerkat in a magazine and was excited. Everything was perfect. Thank you for the good night's rest.

'n Verrassing.

Ons het nie geweet die huis het 'n rietdakplafon nie. My man is baie allergies vir stof en dit is nooit vir ons 'n opsie nie. Verder het die huis 'n sterk Doom-reuk gehad wat iemand met allergieë nie bevoordeel nie. Ek dink hulle spuit dit om die goggas uit te hou. Daar was geen goggas of ongediertes nie. Verder is die eienaar baie gaaf en het ons geen klagtes nie, ek dink vir mense wat nie so sensitief vir stof is nie, kan dit baie goed werk.

Ta Mala's is aan te bevele.

Ta Mala's se Windpomphuisie is skoon en toegerus met enige iets wat jy mag nodig hê. Dit is lekker sentraal geleë en veilig. Ons het heerlik gebly. Die enigste probleem is dat die betalery moeilik is omdat mens tot 09:00 moet wag vir die skoonmaker om jou betaling met 'n kaartmasjien te doen. Ons wou graag vroeg vertrek, maar kon nie, omdat ons vir haar moes wag om te betaal. Daar is ongelukkig nie 'n ander betaal opsie nie.

Baie oulik en sentraal geleë.

Beskikbare parkering moet aan die verskillende eenhede toegeken/genommer word.

Alles en nog wat! Uitstekende verblyf in die pragtige Prins Albert.

Heerlike verblyf, die prys lyk bietjie swaar as jy bespreek, maar dit is elke sent die moeite werd. Heerlik afgekoel in die plons-poel. Baie goeie aandag aan detail. Ons het gedog die muskietnet is dekoratief, toe nie! Lekker braaigeriewe en die doodse stilte wat net die Karoo kan bied.

Absolute waarde vir geld.

Pragtig versorg en dekoratief en alle benodighede was daar. Die diens was ook vriendelik.

Keurig, knus, besonder kreatief.

Pragtige verblyf wat besonder kreatief gedekoreer is. Jammer dat die warmwaterstelsel 'n uitdaging is.

Heerlik, rustig!

Ons het baie lekker gebly in die goed toegeruste plekkie. DStv en aircon 'n lekker aanwins.

Everything you need and some extras too.

Well equipped kitchen and a lovely braai area enhanced our stay. The cottage is beautifully decorated and clean.

Overpriced.

The price for this unit should be a room and not self-catering. No indoor shower. No room to move. Too much squashed in a small space. Cleaners also wanted us out at 8 am. It was not a good visit. Disappointing.

Uniek!

Ta Mala’s is besonders! Die geskiedenis van Prins Albert word in hierdie unieke gastehuis versinnebeeld. Dit is stylvol, enig in sy soort!

Uitstekend!

Fantastiese oornagfasiliteit. Baie verwelkomend en beslis waarde vir geld.

Aangename ervaring.

Dankie vir die eienaars en personeel vir die puik diens en vriendelikheid. Inligtingspamflet m.b.t. tot die geskiedenis van Ta Mala en oor Prins Albert was `n groot bonus. Die plekkie is gerieflik sentraal geleë. Dit is skoon, netjies en oulik gemeubileer. Ons het Karoo rustigheid en gasvryheid ervaar by Ta Mala. Sal definitief weer daar bespreek.

Wonderlike ervaring in 'n besondere gastehuis met karakter en Karoo omgewing wat ons baie geniet het.

Baie kunstig en is die outydse karakter behou en 'n groot belewenis om dit te ervaar in 'n huis wat 100 jaar oud is.

Picturesque accommodation.

We stayed two winter nights at Ta Mala. The little houses are traditional houses that have been restored, so it is modern yet traditional. Equipped with everything you need. Fireplace and winter linen so it wasn't cold. Ta Mala location is perfect, close enough so you can explore the town on foot but far enough so the traffic in the main road doesn't bother you.

Only 1 word: fantastic.

The house was very tidy and well equipped with all the necessities. I loved the privacy, the simple way in which we made our reservation, and the hospitality we experienced, even in the owner's absence. As a regular traveller, I'd recommend Ta Mala anytime. Thank you very much.

Ta Mala was wonderful! Well equipped and excellent value for money!

A lovely renovated cottage. We were pleasantly surprised! Well situated and everything your heart yearns for. Will go back for sure!

Wonderlik versierde en ingerigte kothuisie.

Kan dit sterk aanbeveel.

Relaxing farm accommodation.

Beautifully restored little houses in Prins Albert in the Klein Karoo Located in a quiet street just 2 blocks from the little shops and eateries. Full kitchen, covered braai area outside, nice atmosphere.

Idillies!

Iets het agtergebly, ek kom weer.

It was wonderful, real Karoo perfection.

Karoo hospitality at its best.

So wonderful!

Probably one of the most beautiful places we've stayed at. The owners deserve to be successful with all the effort they put into this beautiful historical retreat.

It was a wonderful day, New Year's Eve and we enjoyed it a lot.

The rooms, kitchen and toilets were very neat, clean and beautiful. The only things I would ask for next time would be: 1. instant coffee- there was a little bit of coffee, but it was ground coffee, but we didn't see a machine that could use ground coffee. 2. In the bedrooms there is aircon but even with all the lights off and the curtains closed there is too much light in the room to be able to sleep properly, because of the aircon's light. If they could maybe put masking tape or something over it it would make a big difference. Otherwise it was beautiful and very nice accommodation. Thank you!

It was a wonderful night in a fantastic little house!

Really enjoyed the night in the restored little house! The facilities were neat, clean and more than sufficient! I would definitely visit this place again!

It was a blissful getaway and chance to rest in a place that is prepared with a lot of care.

I stayed in Meerkat. Everything was so neat and special, to the flowers in the bathroom. The shower outside was an experience with the moon and stars that peep at you! Everything was very practical and accessible, the bed was very comfortable, and the chairs under the bower were used a lot! Wish I could have used the braai or fireplace, but the weekend was just too short. Thank you very much that I was able to stay there - a privilege to sleep in a tastefully decorated place with a lot of history.

Very convenient and lovely.

We were warmly welcomed and all the needed facilities were there. We felt safe throughout.

Feast for the soul.

I would also like to have such a house! Exceeded our greatest expectations.

Wonderful, cozy, old world charm!

We stayed in Meerkat (Oct. 2016). Perfect little cottage, even with ancient furniture, candles, lamps, musquitoe-net, coal stove, large bath and outdoor shower. Has everything you need to find peace for your soul (remember to bring a good book and some bubble bath!). Ta Mala's team went out of their way to make our wedding anniversery very special: huge bouquet of flowers and sparkling wine in the fridge completed the romantic, old-world atmofphere in the little house.

Classic Karoo home with beautiful rooms.

I was in Prins Albert for a conference. Stayed three nights. A beautifully restored little house, very comfortable, very clean, and lots of atmosphere. I parked outse on the pavement, and it was quite safe. Wonderful experience.

A must stay for quaintness.

We were made to feel at home from the first moment on arrival. The venue was clean, comfortable and furnished in a most appealing way. The décor brought smiles to our faces - refreshing!

The most beautiful place ever!

What a pleasant surprise awaited us. This authentic little house is beautifully furnished and equipped. It's petite, cute, tasteful and stunning! Very neat and clean. Have proper look at the photos and you'll know if it suits your taste.

We enjoyed it a lot.

Everything was neat and clean and very well equipped.

Great stay!

Pretty house, great location in town. Everything we needed.

Heerlik oornag in die ontspanne omgewing.

Sal enige tyd weer in gebruik maak van die fasiliteite. Vanaf die aanvanklike reëlings, die verblyf tot en met die vertrek was alles perfek. Ons het in Windpomp gebly en sal hom definitief weer kies. Baie dankie Erika.

Baie aangenaam.

Ons het in "Windpomp" gebly. 'n Pragtige eenheid met soveel karakter uit vervloë dae. Alles was baie skoon en netjies. Die eenheid is baie goed toegerus vir selfsorg. Ons beveel dit beslis aan en sal self definitief in die toekoms weer daarvan gebruik maak.

'n Baie mooi en knus plek om te bly,

Ta Mala was 'n heerlike bestemming vir 2 mense. Dit is mooi, knus en smaakvol. Ek beveel gerus die plekkie aan.

Lieflike plek, aangename mense!

Ons het die verblyf baie geniet. Die vertrekke is met goeie kwaliteit items versier, slaapgoed is vars en netjies. Lugversorger in slaapkamer was n bonus in Desember. Fietse was beskikbaar om mee die dorp te verken! Goeie waarde vir geld.

Gemaklik, rustig, stil, kommerloos.

Die stortwater kan nog warmer gestel word.

Lieflik!

Wat 'n heerlike verrassing om by Ta Mala in te stap met prentjiemooi dekor. Windpomp is 'n heerlike kuierhuis en ten volle ingerig. Ons het net ondervind dat Meerkat nie heeltemal toegerus is vir selfsorg nie. Die buitestort is 'n groot bederf, maar beslis net somertyd, tensy jy dapper genoeg is om dit in die winter te trotseer. Baie geluk en dankie aan Erica en familie!

Rustig, skoon, gemaklik en veilig.

Die huisie is baie mooi gerestoureer met spesiale stukke wat dit 'n baie lekker gesellige gevoel gee. Alles was netjies, skoon en gemaklik. Die snoesige kamerjas was 'n bonus. Dit is sentraal geleë en stapafstand vanaf die dorp, maar jy het ook nie al die gemaal op jou voorstoep nie, wat dit lekker rustig maak vir 'n middagslapie. Uitstekende verblyf, sal dit definitief aanbeveel.
