Heerlik gekuier, ligging pragtig tussen die berge.

Die akkommodasie was baie netjies en ons het lekker gebly. Gasvrou vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ek sou hou daarvan as die cottage gediens kon word elke dag, al moet ek meer betaal.

Had a great time, beautiful location between the mountains.

The accommodation was very neat and we had a nice stay. Hostess friendly and helpful. I would love it if the cottage could be serviced every day, even if I have to pay more.

Pragtige plekkie.

Ons het 'n laaste minuut-bespreking gedoen. Die agent het ons vinnige gehelp. Pin location gestuur en fotos van waar ons moet ingaan. Die plekkie is pragtig en die lugversorging was 'n lafenis in die hitte. Sy het baie oulike inligting aangestuur van wat alles in die area gebeur. Lieflike kersies te koop by een van die Garages. Sal die akkommodasie sterk aanbeveel. Baie sentraal geleë.

We made a last minute reservation. The agent helped us fast. Pin location sent and photos of where we have to enter. The place is beautiful and the air conditioning was a relief in the heat. She forwarded a lot of cool information about what's happening in the area. Lovely cherries for sale at one of the Garages. Would highly recommend the accommodation. Very centrally located.

The Olive Tree was just perfect for our three-night stay.

Everything that you need is on hand plus it has a great shower. Special treat was having a braai in our own secluded area. In walking distance to the shops & restaurants if required. We will definitely return. A super friendly host - who goes out of her way to ensure that you get the most out of your visit to the region.

Ons is baie vriendelik deur ons gasvrou verwelkom. Ons was aangenaam verras deur die skoon, netjiese en smaakvol gemeubileerde eenheid. Ons verblyf het seepglad verloop, want alles werk en alles is van goeie kwaliteit.

The Lemon Tree Cottage is naby alles en baie sentraal in die dorp geleë. Tog is dit in 'n stil woonbuurt, wat baie lekker is. Ek sal dit beslis aanbeveel en graag weer daar gaan oornag in die toekoms.

The neighbourhood outside the apartment had a lot of life within walking distances. However, it was very quiet when you were in the loft.

The apartment was walking distance to some tourist attractions, shops as well as restaurants. The host has this amazing booklet which serves as a guide of the town. The booklet outlines everything you need to know about Ceres (restaurants, hospitals, shopping centres etc). This was a great help to us because we visiting Ceres for the very first time in our lives. The apartment is very nice and comfortable! Location is very convenient, near shops and public transport. The was very helpful, however our stay was marred by the missing air freshener scenario. We feel the host handled the situation poorly and treated us unfairly. Considering how transparent and open we were, we felt the host treated us as though we were thieves (something we did not appreciate). Besides the missing air-freshener/room spray and poor management of the situation, I would recommend Lemon Tree Cottage as a place to stay in Ceres.

So sorry you felt offended by the action, that was not the intention.
