Unfortunately wouldn't recommend this property to others as I wouldn't want future guests to arrive at a dirty place like we did.

On arrival the property was dirty. We could see that there had been some construction work going on outside (and appeared to be inside too, perhaps tiling/grouting, so assume that part of the dirt is explained by this). We had been told in the morning that the fridge was being repaired and that the mini bar fridges would be moved to the kitchen, this was okay with us, however we arrived with 3 fridges next to each other in the middle of the kitchen, none plugged in, and with what looked like saw dust all over the kitchen floor (assume from the moving of the fridges). The one downstairs room didn't have a sheet, or pillow cases, only a stained mattress protector. There was dust on the floors throughout the house on arrival. Couches look like they haven't been cleaned in a while. Upstairs was cleaner, but the bathroom in the one room's sink and toilet was not initially clean up to our standards. We called the owner who quickly arranged with the manager at Kloppenheim to bring a cleaning crew (+-30min). We were thankful to both that this was acknowledged as a problem and dealt with accordingly. Towels were clean and appeared to be quite new. Apart from the initial cleanliness on arrival which left a bitter taste in our mouth, we had a pleasant stay. The house is beautiful with beautiful views.

Bestuur het uit hulle pad gegaan om vir ons te akkommodeer na die oord met 'n kragprobleem gesit het vir die eerste 24 uur van ons besoek.

Ek dink die huis kort 'n raakvat huishoudster, ons was in 2015 ook by die spesifieke huis en dit is hartseer om te sien dat die geheel 'n bietjie verwaarloos het. Ons sal egter enige tyd weer gaan aangesien dit so mooi plek is en die bestuur uit hul pad gegaan het om kerse, ens. vir ons te reël met die 24 uur-kragonderbreking, asook 'n addisionele nag vir ons te offer teen geen koste.

Management went out of their way to accommodate us after the resort sat with a power problem for the first 24 hours of our visit.

I think the house needs a sensitive housekeeper, we were also at the particular house in 2015 and it is sad to see that the whole has neglected a bit. However, we would go again anytime as it is such a beautiful place and the management went out of their way to provide candles etc. arranging for us with the 24 hour power outage, as well as offering us an additional night at no cost.

I will not go back. No cleaning services. Two of the rooms had no guest for the weekend nor for the fire place. And it was bitterly cold. Windows are cracked and door and windows do not close properly. So not means all rooms are cold. The gas for label in living room has finished. One did not know wanted to contact. Hotel has made it very clear that it is a private rental.

Beautiful place that just needs thorough cleaning.

The place is beautiful and has a lovely view. It is spacious and great for self-catering as it has everything you could possibly need. It was just really dusty and the pool area very unclean. When we asked for someone to come clean the pool and fix the dishwasher, the manager stopped taking our calls. For that reason, we didn't swim all weekend.

We had a great stay and the house is very beautiful with the most beautiful view.

The communication to get there was extremely poor - I had to ask a few times and when we got lost Bronwyn was not very helpful. The directions to the Hilton are very bad. There is no sign anywhere that tells you this. They must tell you in advance that it is in Koppenhagen Estate, and that you must get your keys from Hotel reception. Will make things much easier. Then there was none of the containers with coffee or sugar that had anything in them, everything was empty. It is quite far from shops, so it would be very nice if there were at least the necessary supplies with maybe some milk in the fridge just for your first morning. They let me know in advance that the oven and some of the lights were not working.

Geensins op standaard vir die prys nie.

Geen ekstra handdoeke, geen skoonmaakdiens nie, geen elektrisiteit vir 'n groot gedeelte van ons verblyf nie, alge in die swembad ens. Baie teleurgesteld.

By no means up to standard for the price.

No extra towels, no cleaning service, no electricity for a large part of our stay, algae in the pool etc. Very disappointed.

Beautiful house just a bad experience.

This is a very beautiful house but it was very dirty. It was full of dust and the dishwasher was full of mouldy dishes. The swimming pool was ice-cold and not all the gas products were in working order. But other than that, it is was a very nice weekend.

Pragtige plek met alle geriewe daar.

Ek het die naweek baie geniet, 2 dae is egter te kort. In geheel is dit 'n fantastiese plek met die ongelooflikste uitsig. Dit sal 'n belewenis in die somer wees as alles groen is met die lieflike swembad.

Beautiful place with all facilities there.

I really enjoyed the weekend, but 2 days is too short. Overall it's a fantastic place with the most amazing view. It will be an experience in the summer when everything is green with the lovely pool.

Dit was 'n wonderlike naweek by julle huis.

Daar kort dalk 'n lang spieël in die kamers en vars sepies in die badkamer. Verder lieflik!

It was a wonderful weekend at your house.

There may be a lack of a long mirror in the rooms and fresh soaps in the bathroom. Also lovely!

'n Naweek om te onthou.

Dit was ongelooflik lekker om in die oggend op te staan en die mis en koue omvou jou op die balkon. Baie dankie Daleen vir `n onvergeetlike naweek by julle.

It was incredibly nice to get up in the morning and the fog and cold envelop you on the balcony. Thank you very much Daleen for an unforgettable weekend with you.
