Lekker rustig en veilig.

Ons was 'n familie bymekaar vir 'n langnaweek. Die huis was heeltemal groot genoeg vir ons. Die braai-area en swembad was 'n wenner! Die kombuis kort 'n paar goed om lekker kos te maak, maar ons het 'n plan gemaak.

Nice and quiet and safe.

We were a family gathering for a long weekend. The house was perfectly big enough for us. The braai area and pool was a winner! The kitchen lacks some things to make good food, but we made a plan.

Dit was net 'n wegbreek-reset 2-nagte kuier om te ontspan; het die doel bereik.

Ja-Nee. Negatief: bietjie teleurgesteld gewees in die kamer. Deja-vu oomblik gehad met ons verblyf lank terug in Montmartre, Parys. Kamer kleiner as verwag, kas net 'n reling, geen rak, geen hangplek vir handdoeke in badkamer, geen handewashanddoek nie, hele badkamervloer word nat as mens stort, geen toilet bo-deksel nie, Wifi is non-existent. Verder was die adres verkeerd en ons moes heen en weer soek. Blykbaar is daar 2 White Giraffe plekke in Parys, een White Giraffe River Cottage en dan die een waar ons was, ver van die rivier. Die adres is in Fick-straat naby die rivier, ons was op h/v Wes en Schlibach-straat, baie ver van die rivier. Niemand het die moeite gedoen om mens te laat weet dat die adres verkeerd is nie en dit skep 'n valse illusie van waar die akkommodasie is. Dis iets wat gekorrigeer moet word. Die stepping stones moet weer herlê word want dis los en onveilig, tripping hazard. Positief: alles was mooi skoon. Simon het ons vriendelik ontvang. Die stoepie is lekker om by te kuier en ons het lekker daar ge-"chill". Beddegoed en handdoeke was goed. Die plek is waarde vir R600/nag, maar kort net weer bietjie TLC. Bed het goed geslaap en het ten spyte van die lang "negatiewe" lys, lekker gekuier daar.

It was just a getaway reset 2 night visit to relax; achieved the goal.

I agree. Negative: was a little disappointed in the room. Had deja-vu moment with our stay long back in Montmartre, Paris. Room smaller than expected, closet only a rail, no shelf, no place to hang towels in bathroom, no hand wash towel, entire bathroom floor gets wet when you take a shower, no toilet top cover, Wifi is non-existent. Furthermore, the address was wrong and we had to search back and forth. Apparently there are 2 White Giraffe places in Paris, one White Giraffe River Cottage and then the one where we were, far from the river. The address is on Fick Street near the river, we were on h/v West and Schlibach Street, very far from the river. No one bothered to let people know that the address is wrong and it creates a false illusion of where the accommodation is. It's something that needs to be corrected. The stepping stones must be relaid again because they are loose and unsafe, a tripping hazard. Positive: everything was nice and clean. Simon received us kindly. The stoepie is nice to visit and we had a good time "chilling" there. Bedding and towels were good. The place is value for R600/night, but again just needs some TLC. Bed slept well and despite the long "negative" list, had a good time there.

Simon was very friendly, and everything we needed was available. I feel the towels could be replaced, and the oven needs a good scrub. In spite of the load shedding which impacted on the availability of water, we had a good time.

Heerlike huis met baie spasie.

Die huis is heerlik ruim met alles wat jy nodig sal kry. Al wat gebeur het was die advertensie het gewys die kamers het TVs, maar met die aankoms het die eienaar aan ons verduidelik dat daar nie meer TVs in die kamers is nie. Ek sal ook voorstel dat daar dalk 'n paar multi-adapters in die vertrekke geplaas word vir herlaai van jou foon of gebruik van jou rekenaar.

Goeie oorblyplek vir kort verblyf.

White Giraffe was heel gemaklik - die tuin is baie mooi en dis baie privaat. Sou wel sê 'n paar klein goedjies het gepla - daar is geen handseep, sjampoe of ekstra komberse beskikbaar nie en die verwarmer en WiFi het nie gewerk nie (sou 'n krisis gewees het vir iemand). Andersins is dit 'n gemaklike plek om oor te bly.

Good place to stay for a short stay.

White Giraffe was very comfortable - the garden is very beautiful and it's very private. Would say a few minor things bothered - no hand soap, shampoo or extra blankets available and the heater and WiFi didn't work (would have been a crisis for anyone). Otherwise it's a comfortable place to stay.

Relaxing way to unplug from the hustle and bustle.

We really enjoyed our stay, we were very secluded and we enjoyed being separate from the main house, the outdoor kitchen can get chilly at night and would be ideal if it could be closed with the use of blinds to allow some warmth whilst either cooking or eating.

Skoon en gerieflik.

Die tuin-eenheid is skoon en netjies. Die buitekombuis is uniek. Beddegoed en handdoeke is skoon, maar neem eie seep en sjampoo - dit word nie voorsien nie. Lugversorging sou 'n bonus gewees het, maar die dakwaaier help darem.

Clean and comfortable.

Verbasende akkommodasie.

Die akkommodasie was gerieflik, netjies en verbasend groot. Die foto's van die plek is reeds indrukwekkend, maar ons was steeds verbaas oor hoe groot dit is. Die eienaars is aangenaam, maar nie vreeslik praterig nie. Berei vrae oor WiFi ens. reeds voor anders gaan jy hulle konstant bel (hulle is maklik om in die hande te kry en hulpvaardig). Vat maar twee-punt proppe of multi-punt proppe saam, van die kamers se kragpunte is moeilik om gerieflik te gebruik.

Amazing accommodation.

The accommodation was comfortable, tidy and surprisingly large. The pictures of the place are already impressive, but we were still surprised by how big it is. The owners are pleasant, but not terribly chatty. Prepare questions about WiFi etc. already before otherwise you will call them constantly (they are easy to get hold of and helpful). Just take two-point plugs or multi-point plugs together, some of the rooms' power points are difficult to use conveniently.

Niemand het ons gepla nie. Ons het lekker rustig gekuier en musiek gespeel. Ek sal beslis weer die plek bespreek. Al fout was dat daar nie ligte in die kamer is of bedlamppies is nie. Die dakwaaier se lig het ook nie gewerk nie en daar kort ’n nuwe rooster vir die braai. Verder was alles lekker.

Ons het as 'n paar vriende Parys besoek vir 'n paar dae en het 'n huis naby aan alles waar ons lekker gesellig kan kuier gesoek.

The White Giraffe is 'n mooi opgepaste huis met oorgenoeg spasie - dus 'n lekker huis vir 'n groep wat saam wil bly. Die tuin is netjies en die swembad is 'n groot bonus tot die huis. Die kombuis is ook lekker ingerig, alhoewel die stoof en oond nie meer so lekker werk nie. Die ligging is perfek, die buurt is stil met die dorpie en al die winkeltjies slegs 'n paar minute se ry weg. Op ons aankoms was die ontvangs vriendelik en verwelkomend, maar ek moet tog sê, op ons laaste dag was die huishulp al in die huis nog voor ons opgestaan het. Ons waardeer natuurlik haar diens, dit het net effe gevoel asof ons aanjegaag word (lw. dit was so net na 8 en uitklok tyd is 10 uur). Ek sê dit het so gevoel, omdat ons bietjie in haar pad gevoel het terwyl ons gou ons laaste onbyt wou maak en omdat sy al die kamers begin opruim het nog voor ons tasse uit was. Maar sy was vreeslik vriendelik en dierbaar, en eintlik net iemand wat haar werk goed wil doen. Alles en alles was dit 'n heerlike plek om te bly, vir seker 'n huis weg van die huis!

We visited Paris as a couple of friends for a few days and were looking for a house close to everything where we could have a nice cozy time.

The White Giraffe is a nicely appointed house with plenty of space - so a nice house for a group that wants to stay together. The garden is neat and the swimming pool is a big bonus to the house. The kitchen is also nicely furnished, although the stove and oven no longer work so well. The location is perfect, the neighborhood is quiet with the village and all the shops only a few minutes drive away. On our arrival, the reception was friendly and welcoming, but I have to say, on our last day, the maid was already in the house before we got up. We of course appreciate her service, it just felt a bit like we were being rushed (obviously it was just after 8 and check-out time is 10 o'clock). I say it felt that way, because we felt a bit in her way as we quickly wanted to have our last breakfast and because she started cleaning all the rooms even before our bags were out. But she was terribly kind and lovely, and really just someone who wants to do her job well. All and all it was a lovely place to stay, a home away from home for sure!

Die verblyf was lekker nabygeleë aan Afridome. Dit was skoon en netjies. Die kamer is baie klein, asook die badkamer. Ons het baie gesukkel om ons karre te parkeer. 'n Bakkie kom baie moeilik daarin, meer geskik vir klein karretjies. Kamer is baie privaat en mooi stoeparea.

Slept well, room was just very small!

The accommodation was nice and close to Afridome. It was clean and tidy. The room is very small, as is the bathroom. We had a lot of trouble parking our cars. A bakkie is very difficult to fit in, more suitable for small cars. Room is very private and nice patio area.

Gemaklik vir groter groep.

Lekker huis met genoeg spasie vir 'n groter groep. Die air conditioner het egter nie gewerk nie, wat redelik nodig was vir die warm week wat ons daar was. Maar gelukkig is daar 'n lekker swembad.

Dit was bietjie beknop en glad nie soos op die foto's nie.

Personeel/eienaar was vriendelik en behulpsaam. Stort is bitter klein en van beweeg spasie in die kamer is daar nie sprake nie. Kombuis is buite en nie soos op die fotos nie. Alles wat mens nodig het is daar, maar ek voel die foto's moet opgedateer word.

Hi, thank you for your comments. I do get the feeling that perhaps you looked at the wrong pictures when you made the booking as we do make it clear that the kitchen for Garden room is outside and the pictures show it exactly as it is.

Dit is 'n pragtige klein huisie wat in 'n rustige omgewing sit. Baie lekker daar gebly vir een dag. Dis definitief die moeite werd om die gastehuis te ondersteun. Sal weer daar gaan oorslaap.

Die gastehuis is pragtig. Ek was daar was vir 'n verjaarsdagpartytjie en ek het dit geniet want ek en my eggenoot kon in en uit die gastehuis kom soos ons wou sonder enige pyne.

Die huis is baie meer as wat ons verwag het. Simon was vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die absolute enigste ding wat ons gekort het was 'n handklitser/whisk, maar kon met 'n vurk regkom. Verder was die huis skoon, netjies en veilig. Baie dankie.

Bekostigbare oornagverblyf.

Ons het in die kothuis gebly wat voldoende was vir die nag se oorslaap. Alles was mooi skoon en het aan ons basiese behoeftes voldoen. As ek kritiek kan gee kan ek sê dat die eienaar ons nie te wagte was nie en het nie vir ons reggemaak nie. In die badkamer het die stort nie 'n stortkop gehad nie, wat baie vermorsing veroorsaak het. Spasie in die kamer is ook baie beperk. Die ligging is in die woongebied wat redelik ver is van enige winkels of restaurante. Ten spyte van die punte, het ons baie lekker geslaap die aand.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Affordable overnight stay.

We stayed in the cottage which was adequate for the night's sleep. Everything was beautifully clean and met our basic needs. If I can criticise, I can say that the owner didn't expect us and didn't fix it. In the bathroom the shower did not have a shower head, which caused a lot of waste. Space in the room is also very limited. The location is in the residential area which is quite far from any shops or restaurants. Despite the points, we had a great night's sleep.

Heerlik en tog skokkend.

Dit is regtig 'n pragtige plekkie, die badkamer van die kothuis was net 'n bietjie knap en kan nie meer as een persoon daarin beweeg nie. Die enigste klagtes wat ek het is die volgende: 1. Die Weber is stukkend en nie gerieflik om mee te braai nie; 2. Die eienaars se honde is ietwat van 'n probleem veral as hulle nie tuis is nie (onophoudelike geblaf) en dan word dit ook herhaal sodra die eienaars tuis is. Mense moet besef dat nie alle mense lief is vir honde nie, en mag dit steurend vind veral as jy wil wegbreek om te rus.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Delicious and yet shocking.

It's a really beautiful place, the bathroom of the cottage was just a bit cramped and can't fit more than one person in it. The only complaints I have are the following: 1. The Weber is broken and not convenient to grill with; 2. The owners' dogs are somewhat of a problem especially when they are not at home (incessant barking) and then this is also repeated as soon as the owners are home. People need to realize that not all people love dogs, and may find it distracting especially if you want to break away to rest.

Sal aanbeveel as eienaar regmaak waaroor gaste voorheen ongelukkig was.

Bekostigbare verblyf hoef nie noodwendig afgeskeep te word nie. Vorige klagtes oor die stort en dakwaaier is nie reggestel nie. Stort onhigiëniese, geen plek om seep te sit en handdoek te hang asook geen stortgordyn om te keer dat alles nat word nie. Die res was heeltemal aanvaarbaar om te oornag.

Would recommend if owner fixes what guests were previously unhappy about.

Affordable accommodation does not necessarily have to be neglected. Previous complaints about the shower and ceiling fan have not been rectified. Shower unhygienic, no place to put soap and towel to hang as well as no shower curtain to prevent everything from getting wet. The rest was quite acceptable to overnight.

Goed vir oornagverblyf.

Netjies en skoon. 'n Lugversorger/air-con sal 'n aanwins wees vir die Garden Cottage. Stortkop moet vervang word aangesien dit elke keer op 'n persoon val wanneer jy stort. Aangesien die water deur 'n gasgeyser warm gemaak word, is dit 'n redelike gesukkel om die water die regte temperatuur te kry. Sal ook 'n goeie idee wees om 'n klein vars melkhouertjie in die yskas te plaas. Verder is dit 'n pragtige plekkie en die buitekombuisie is baie oulik en goed toegerus.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Good for overnight stay.

Neat and clean. An air conditioner/air-con would be an asset to the Garden Cottage. Shower head needs to be replaced as it falls on a person every time you shower. Since the water is heated by a gas geyser, it is quite a struggle to get the water to the right temperature. It would also be a good idea to place a small container of fresh milk in the fridge. Furthermore, it is a beautiful place and the outdoor kitchen is very cute and well equipped.

Sal weer wil terugkeer na White Giraffe.

Weens die weersomstandighede kon ons nie die huis ten volle benut nie. Sou graag buite wou braai en swem in die pragtige blou swembad, maar ongelukkig het dit te veel gereën en baie koud. Ons het by Giraffe gebly omrede ons 'n troue in Parys bygewoon het. Ons het ook probleme met ons voertuig ondervind en Simon het toegelaat dat ons later as 10 uur kon aanbly wat ons baie waardeer het. Ek sal net voorstel dat daar in al die kamers waaiers sal wees, asook dat daar ligte buite by die swembad area sal wees vir die aande. Baie dankie.

Will want to return to White Giraffe again.

Due to the weather conditions, we could not make full use of the house. Would have liked to have a barbecue outside and swim in the beautiful blue pool, but unfortunately it rained too much and was very cold. We stayed at Giraffe because we were attending a wedding in Paris. We also had problems with our vehicle and Simon allowed us to stay after 10 hours which we really appreciated. I would only suggest that there would be fans in all the rooms, as well as that there would be lights outside by the pool area for the evenings. Thank you very much.

Advertensie is 'n wanvoorstelling van dit wat jy kry.

Advertensie 'n duidelike wanvoorstelling van wat jy kry as jy daar kom. Dit is misleidend. Die Garden cottage by The White Giraffe is ongelooflik klein. Badkamertjie is totaal onprakties, amper hele vertrek word nat wanneer jy stort. Stortkop bly afval wanneer stort gebruik word. Vloer was vuil onder bedkassies (hare en stof), slegs 1 bedlampie het gewerk, so kan ek aangaan en aangaan. Ons het dit glad nie geniet nie en sal definitief nie teruggaan soontoe nie.

Advertising is a misrepresentation of what you get.

Advertisement a clear misrepresentation of what you get when you get there. This is misleading. The Garden cottage at The White Giraffe is incredibly small. Bathroom is totally impractical, almost the whole room gets wet when you shower. Shower head keeps falling off when showering. Floor was dirty under bedside tables (hair and dust), only 1 bedside lamp worked, so I can go on and on. We did not enjoy it at all and will definitely not go back there.

The White Giraffe 's response

Thank you for the feedback,

I think anyone using the website can decide for themselves if they think it is misleading. I personally do not think the advert is misleading.

The shower in this unit was not broken when the guest arrived.

Dit was regtig baie aangenaam - baie lekker plek vir 'n klomp vriende of familie.

The White Giraffe bied baie gerieflike verblyf teen bekostigbare tariewe en ideaal vir 'n groot groep mense - sal maklik vir enigeen aanbeveel. Baie netjies en skoon.

Plek was lieflik. Ander gaste was baie raserig, maar eienaar het uitgesorteer.

Plek was rerig heerlik. Perfekte ligging. Eienaar dierbaar en gasvry. Kan dalk net kyk na die waaier. Ek dink hy is kappot en dit was lekker warm die naweek. So die waaier sou handig gewees het as hy nie rondgeskud en geraas het nie.

Behalwe vir die kombuis en badkamer het ons waarde vir ons geld gekry.

Baie lekker bed. Pragtige skilderye en borde teen mure. Spieëls is besonders. Oop kombuiskaste en wasbakke op stoep werk nie, want vadoek en sponsie vir skottelgoed is vuil. Tafel en stoele vuil, nie afgestof nie. Teesakkies in onbedekte (oop) bakkie onbruikbaar (verloor geur en stowwerig). In badkamer moet hake wees vir klere en handdoeke. Kassies in badkamer te laag en onprakties. Dit moet teen muur vasgesit word.

Apart from the kitchen and bathroom we got value for our money.

Very nice bed. Beautiful paintings and plates on walls. Mirrors are special. Open kitchen cupboards and sinks on the porch do not work, because dish towels and sponges for dishes are dirty. Table and chairs dirty, not dusted. Tea bags in uncovered (open) container unusable (lost flavor and dusty). In the bathroom there should be hooks for clothes and towels. Cabinets in bathroom too low and impractical. It must be fixed to the wall.

The Garden Room features a kitchen area located in an outside space so despite every effort made to make sure it is sparkling for guests on arrival there can be unforeseen circumstances such as thunderstorms and wind that can cause dust to settle on the outside furniture.

Baie klein en basies, maar jy kry waarvoor jy betaal (die tuinwoonstel).

Die strate van die buurt waar die gastehuis geleë is, is vervuil met reuse slaggate. Die tuinwoonstel is vreeslik klein, maar dit bevat alle benodighede met die uitsondering van seep. Die kombuisie op die stoep, kon nie behoorlik benut word nie weens die reën. Die eienaar was heel hulpvaardig. Parkering ook nie onderdak nie. Ons het steeds nie bewys van betaling van die eienaar ontvang nie ten spyte van meerdere versoeke. Die lae tarief maak dit 'n goeie opsie vir diegene wat met 'n klein begroting werk.

Very small and basic, but you get what you pay for (garden flat).

The streets of the neighbourhood where the guesthouse is located is spoiled by huge potholes. The garden flat is very small, but has all the necessities except soap. The kitchenette is on the patio so we couldn't properly use it due to the rain. The owner was very helpful. Parking is not undercover. We have of yet not received proof of payment from the owner despite numerous requests. The low price makes it a good option for those with a small budget.

Uitstekende geriewe en waarde vir geld.

Die eenheid kan 8 mense slaap plus nog 2 in aangrensende woonstel. Die huis is netjies, ruim en a bonus is daar 'n pragtige swembad om in af te koel. Goeie braaigeriewe - boma asook 'n weber braaier. Ons het 'n heerlike naweek gehad en kan die White Giraffe regtig aanbeveel vir klein of groot groepe wat lekker wil saam kuier.

Fantastic say, great value for money.

We travelled as a group of 2 couples and a single. The house is really spacious and private. We were very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. It is close the city and restaurants. The neighbourhood is perfectly quiet. I particularly loved the boma area and herbal garden and the birds singing in the morning. One thing that could be improved is the lighting around the boma area but besides that, perfect. Beautiful place!

Net wat ek nodig het vir bekostigbare prys.

Wanneer jy Parys toe gaan het jy net 'n bed en 'n badkamer nodig. Dit is vreeslik oulik met 'n buitestoep, kombuis. Klein kamer, maar steeds netjies sonder te veel tierlantyntjies en lekker badkamer met stort. Sal beslis weer hier gaan kuier. Dit was vir my en my man ideaal en ook loopafstand van die bekende Breestraat.

The house was very comfortable and the reception was good.

We had a wonderful time in front of the fireplace and the kitchen was well equipped. However, the stove was very dirty. Furthermore, there was no bathroom mat for the middle bathroom, which was quite necessary due to the old wet weather. There were also people who walked around outside the house and talked loudly until 2 o'clock Sunday morning. (Assume that is the caretaker's place of residence.)

The White Giraffe 's response

When the client arrived, I said, as I do with every guest, please let me know if you need anything at all. The guest called me at around 20:00 in the evening after having arrived, to say the gas was up of the stove. I replaced the gas within 5 minutes, she also mentioned the water was not hot enough. We do turn the temperature down in summer as it can be too hot so it then needs readjusted come winter. Again, this is something that can be done when the guest let us know, and I did readjust and checked it myself. My point here is that the guest was not without a stove or hot water for long as it suggests in her review.

The White Giraffe 's response

Hi,
I would just like to address your issues. The confirmation email that you received when booking states that you must call me on arrival to be checked in, as far as I'm aware that is what you did and you were met right away thereafter so you certainly did receive service. You did call me twice but that is because you got lost! The next day I sent you an SMS at 8am advising you what to do with the key, if you say you were already in Vanderbijlpark by then, you must have left around 7.30, in these cases you should advise that you are leaving very early so we can make arrangements. This is after all, a self catering unit not a hotel or BnB and there is not someone on site 24 hours a day.
Thank you for your comments regarding the soap, this has now been rectified.
Kind regards,
Simon.

Bekostigbaar en netjies maar beknop.

Ons het lekker in die tuinwoonstel gebly en die kombuisie op die stoep is baie oulik. Al probleem was die feit dat die kamer nie 'n venster het nie, so ons het die aand eers die glasdeure oop gehou, maar toe kom die muskiete in en ons voel nie veilig om met oop deure te slaap nie en met die deure toe is dit beknop en warm.

Affordable and tidy but cramped.

We had a nice stay in the garden flat and the kitchen on the stoep was very cute. The only problem was that the room doesn't have a window, so we kept the glass doors open at first, but then the mosquitoes came in and we didn't feel safe to sleep with the doors open and with the doors closed it was cramped and hot.

Waarde vir Geld

Kamer is klein maar mooi en het als wat jy nodig het vir 'n kort oorslaap. Hou baie van die buite-kombuis, dit is regtig iets anders om te beleef. Enigste probleem wat ons gehad het was met die aankoms, daar was niemand om ons te ontmoet en deur die ontvangsproses te gaan nie.

Voldoende vir een aand.

Alhoewel die kamer baie klein is, is dit skoon en netjies. Daar is 'n yskas en mikrogolf in die kame,r maar die ketel is op 'n stoof buite die kamer op die stoep aangesien die kamer te klein is om dit ook in te hê. Geen lugversorging, net 'n dakwaaier. Heeltemal voldoende vir een of twee aande slaap, maar gans te klein en beknop vir langer.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Sufficient for one night.

Although the room is very small, it is clean and tidy. There is a fridge and microwave in the room but the kettle is on a stove outside the room on the veranda as the room is too small to have it in as well. No air conditioning, just a ceiling fan. Perfectly adequate for one or two nights sleep, but far too small and cramped for longer.

Teleurstellend.

Ek was onder die indruk dit is 'n selfsorg-eenheid, die bestuurder het ons nie ingelig dat ons die kombuis kan gebruik nie. Die kragprop is oorlaai en het nie behoorlik gewerk nie, jy moes van die toestelle afskakel anders sny die krag uit. Die stort is onprakties, as jy stort loop die hele plek vol water, as die deur toe is kan jy nie die wasbak ordentlik gebruik nie.

Disappointing.

I was under the impression it was a self-catering unit, the manager did not inform us that we could use the kitchen. The power plug was overloaded and didn't work properly, you had to turn off some of the devices or the power would cut out. The shower is impractical, when you shower the whole place is full of water, if the door is closed you cannot use the sink properly.

The White Giraffe 's response

Please note this review was for the Garden Room. The Garden Room is listed as a stand alone room only accommodation, this is also made very clear in the quote that I send, at no time was "self catering" mentioned and there was no kitchen facility for this room so I'm not sure what kitchen this guest is referring to.

Further, this room has now actually been renovated (pictures coming soon). The outside space is now much bigger and incorporates a kitchenette with gas stove, in effect now making this a self catering unit for 2.

I would also urge anyone looking at our reviews and reading this to please take into account the rest of the reviews which were good and in fact excellent feed back. You can't please everyone all of the time!

Thank you,

The White Giraffe.

Piepklein vir 2 persone.

Nee wat ... jy kan nie eers jou "mind change" nie. Die badkamer is belaglik klein. Definitief net vir een persoon. Vir seker nie 2 persone nie, nie eens 2 klein persone soos ons nie. Kragtoevoer is onveilig en onvoldoende. Kan nie eens die verwarmer trek wat wel in die kamer was nie. Geen tafel of stoel om van te praat nie. Die TV-kanale is ook definitief nie kykbaar vir enige Afrikaanssprekende persoon nie! Sit dan eerder 'n ou radiotjie daar. Die opvang is nie te sleg nie. Jammer, maar dit was maar 'n teleurstelling. Die "butler" of toesighouer was ook maar net-net daar met ons aankoms, en nooit weer gesien nie.

Tiny for 2 people.

No what... you can't even change your mind. The bathroom is ridiculously small. Definitely just for one person. For sure not 2 persons, not even 2 small persons like us. Power supply is unsafe and inadequate. Couldn't even turn on the heater that was in the room. No table or chair to speak of. The TV channels are also definitely not watchable for any Afrikaans-speaking person! Put an old radio there instead. The reception is not too bad. Sorry, but it was just a disappointment. The "butler" or supervisor was also only there when we arrived, and was never seen again.

Thank you for your review.
The Garden Room is currently being renovated so all these issues are now being resolved. The electricity is safe as the room has its own breaker box but I understand it seems there was an issue with the heater tripping the power.
The TV channels were listed on a sheet in the room and actually none that were listed are Afrikaans. The room does not have full DStv though.

An average sleeping place, small room, no aircon.

Thank you very much for the prompt service of LekkeSlaap. However, I will try not to consider it necessary to sleep over at The White Giraffe again. It really was the "bare minimum". Tiny room, tiny bathroom that gets completely wet when the shower is used. No air conditioning, no soap or shampoo or anything like that.

Gemaklik!

Ons het in die kleiner kamer vir 2 geslaap. Daar is 'n groter gesin-opsie by die swembad. Dit is effe knus met min spasie vir jou tasse, maar dus werklik mooi gemaak en daar is ook 'n oulike tuin-area spesiaal vir jul 2. Dit is 'n goeie opsie op 'n "roadtrip" maar nie noodwendig vir langer verblyf nie.

Comfortable!

We slept in the smaller room for 2. There is a larger family option at the pool. It is a bit cozy with little space for your bags, but therefore really nicely done and there is also a cute garden area especially for the 2 of you. It is a good option on a "road trip" but not necessarily for a longer stay. .

Uit die boonste rakke.

Hierdie was werklik 'n belewenis. Patsy was ongelooflik vriendelik en het ons bietjie van die dorp vertel omrede ons nog nooit in Parys was nie, sy het ons ook verwys na die beste plekkies om gaan eet en geniet in die dorp. Die plekkie is vreeslik oulik en baie mooi uiteengesit. Die kamer was ongelooflik skoon en van die boonste gehalte. Sal net aanbeveel dat hulle 'n sepie of klein sjampoe bysit vir as mens wil stort. Die stort se warm/koud reguleerder was bietjie 'n gesukkel, maar nie 'n groot probleem nie. My eerlike opinie, as ons Parys weer besoek sal ons definitief weer hier bly. Die Foto's van die White Giraffe teenoor hoe ongelooflik dit in werklikheid is, stem glad nie met mekaar ooreen nie. Ek stel voor dat die foto's opgedateer word, dan sal daar baie meer mense van hierdie plekkie gebruik maak. Dit was regtig 'n belewenis. Baie dankie, Patsy en baie dankie, LekkeSlaap.

Of top quality.

This was truly an experience. Patsy was incredibly friendly and told us a little about the town because we had never been to Paris, she also directed us to the best places to eat and enjoy in the town. The place is very cute and very nicely laid out. The room was incredibly clean and of the highest quality. Would only recommend that they add a bar of soap or small shampoo for when you want to shower. The shower's hot/cold regulator was a bit of a struggle, but not a big problem. My honest opinion, if we visit Paris again we will definitely stay here again. The Photos of the White Giraffe to how amazing it is in reality do not match each other at all. I suggest updating the photos, then many more people will use this place. It was really an experience. Thank you very much, Patsy and thank you very much, LekkeSlaap.

Gemaklik en naby ons bestemming, maar kort bietjie aandag.

Die kamer was skoon en netjies, maar ek dink hulle het vergeet om die vloer te vee. Die kraan in die wasbak het water uitgespuit in verskillende rigtings - teen die muur na die toilet ens. Ek het 'n pleister om die lekplek geplak sodat ek veilig my tande kon borsel. Die warm/koue water in die stort was 'n uitdaging, dan brand jy, dan vries jy - geen gemaklike konstante temperatuur.

Convenient and close to our destination, but needs some attention.

The room was clean and tidy but I think they forgot to sweep the floor. The faucet in the sink was spraying water in different directions - up the wall to the toilet etc. I stuck a band-aid around the leak so I could safely brush my teeth. The hot/cold water in the shower was a challenge, then you burn, then you freeze - no comfortable constant temperature.

Gerieflike somer-verblyf vir die hele gesin naby die Afri-dome in Parys.

Simon was baie vriendelik en bedagsaam. Die White Giraffe is naby die Afri-dome wat vir ons ideaal is. Dit sal die ideale plek wees om in die somer tuis te gaan met die buite braai en swembadarea, maar met die baie teëls is dit ongelukkig yskoud in die winter. Alles is baie skoon.

Het baie lekker gebly en sal weer van julle en White Giraffe gebruik maak. Ons was ophoogte gehou van die probleem met die waterverwarmer in die kamer wat aan ons geallokeer was.

Heerlike naweek.

Dit was n ongelooflike lekker naweek. Die verblyf was so lekker. Al probleem was die een kamer wat na aan die pomp wat aangaan sodra water gebruik word. Dot maak nogal 'n geraas en van die kinders het gesukkel om te slaap. As hulle dalk net daar iets kan doen. Verder was dit baie lekker! Heerlike naweek die verblyf is uitstekend dit is rustig en naby genoeg aan al die besienswaardighede in Parys. Sal The White Giraffe aanbeveel aan enige een. Dankie Simon!

Great weekend.

It was an incredibly nice weekend. The stay was so nice. All problem was the one room which is close to the pump which goes on as soon as water is used. Dot makes quite a noise and some of the children had trouble sleeping. If only they could do something there. Other than that, it was very nice! Lovely weekend the accommodation is excellent it is quiet and close enough to all the attractions in Paris. Would recommend The White Giraffe to anyone. Thanks Simon!

Baie lekker gekuier, maar nie veel geslaap. Jongmense langsaan het heelnag harde musiek gespeel (seker aanvaarbaar, was immers oujaarsaand).

Dit is 'n heerlike ruim huis waar 'n groep heerlik kan saam kuier. Kombuis en kort meer bakke en basiese goedjies soos blikoopmaker, skiller en broodmes. Die huis kort bietjie aandag. Maar ons het lekker gekuier!

Had a great time, but didn't sleep much. Young people next door played loud music all night (probably acceptable, after all it was New Year's Eve).

It is a lovely spacious house where a group can enjoy a wonderful time together. Kitchen and needs more bowls and basic things like tin opener, peeler and bread knife. The house needs some attention. But we had a great time!

Baie goeie waarde vir geld.

Ons het baie lekker gebly vir die aand wat ons daar was. Was bekommerd dat ons babatjie se gehuil die buurt sou wakker maak, maar verder skort niks. Sal definitief weer kom.

Very good value for money.

We had a very nice stay for the night we were there. Was worried that our baby's cry would wake up the neighborhood, but otherwise nothing is wrong. Will definitely come again.

Wonderlik!

Ons het dit baie geniet in Parys en dit was lekker om by die White Giraffe te bly. Die plek is netjies, met baie spasie, bordspeletjies, DStv en 'n lekker swembad.

Fantasties!

Dit was een van die beste naweke wat ek in 'n lang tyd gehad het. En die verblyf het baie meer gebied as wat ek verwag het.

It was nice, clean and safe. Thank you!

I do think there was a mis-booking as we booked and paid for the White Giraffe, but end up staying at the White Giraffe River Cottage. It was a little farther away from the Domearena, but we didn't mind, stuff like that happens. What we wanted was a safe, clean house, and we got more! Not one time did we feel unsafe, or unhappy. Thank you for the laundry room, you might want to add that in your ad. I will recommend you to anyone, and we will be back next time. Thanx Tia

Die huis is baie ruim, pragtig en baie gerieflik binne. Heerlike kuierstoepe.

Geen negatiewe ervaring gedurende verblyf nie! Ons het baie lekker geslaap en gekuier by The White Giraffe. Ons sal dit baie beslis weer gebruik. Lekker rustige dorpie.
