Hi Geoffery
Sjoe, jy het my nou amper laat skrik. Ek dog die messeware en borde is gesteel.
Maar gelukkig, toe ek die kas oopmaak, is alles nog veilig binne-in. Ons het gedink dit is netjieser om die breekware in die kas te pak.

Wat die mure aanbetref, ons het 'n "rustic" voorkoms en daarom het ons die mure "gebag". Ek verstaan dat dit nie almal se smaak is nie.

Wat die stortwater aanbetref - dankie dat jy ons in kennis gestel het - ons sal hieraan aandag gee.

'n Weggesteekte juweel.

Ons was so verras met The Yard! Wat 'n uitsonderlike plek om te bly, heerlik sentraal in Gordonsbaai. Die detail in hierdie blyplek is uitstaande: Elke dingetjie werk perfek en is op sy plek. Dit was veral lekker vir ons wat met ons hond gereis het, want ons kamer het 'n privaat tuintjie gehad. Puik, ons sal beslis terug wees.

We were so surprised with The Yard! What an exceptional place to stay, delightfully central in Gordons Bay. The detail in this accommodation is outstanding: Every little thing works perfectly and is in its place. It was especially nice for us traveling with our dog, because our room had a private little garden. Great, we will definitely be back.

Sentraal, bekostigbaar, basiese skoon geriewe, veilige parkering, baie vriendelike diens.

Alles was presies soos ons verwag het. Marinda is 'n lieflike gasvrou en het ons persoonlik ontvang en verwelkom. Daar is baie aandag aan detail gegee en herwonne materiaal is gebruik om dit 'n lieflike plaas atmosfeer te gee, sonder dat enige iets goedkoop of uit plek voel. Die akkommodasie is 'n 5 minute stap vanaf supermarke, 'n drankwinkel, 'n laundromat, takeaways, 'n biltongwinkel en 'n 10 minute stap vanaf die hoofstrand, met eetplekke, drinkplekke en snuisterye op die soom van die lieflikste baai in die land. Die enigste liggewig, negatiewe kommentaar is dat daar van vroeg rondom die huis gewerskaf word, wat laat slaap nie regtig moontlik gemaak het nie. Ons sal beslis weer hier aandoen.

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

Central, affordable, basic clean facilities, secure parking, very friendly service.

Everything was exactly as we expected. Marinda is a lovely hostess and received and welcomed us personally. A lot of attention has been paid to detail and recycled materials have been used to give it a lovely farm feel, without anything feeling cheap or out of place. The accommodation is a 5 minute walk from supermarkets, a liquor store, a laundromat, takeaways, a biltong shop and a 10 minute walk from the main beach, with places to eat, drink and shop on the edge of the loveliest bay in the country . The only light, negative comment is that there is a lot of noise around the house from early on, which didn't really make sleeping in late possible. We will definitely stay here again.

Baie dankie vir jou voorstelle Wilma, ons werk hieraan.
Naamborde is al lankal op ons lys, maar omdat ons dit uniek wil hou aan die omgewing, kon ons nog nie finaal besluit wat om te gebruik nie, maar dit is prioriteit vir 2020.
Met die TV het ons 'n beginsel besluit geneem dat ons geen TV's op The Yard gaan inbring nie.
Ons leef al vir 16 jaar sonder dit en wil graag hê ons gaste moet die rustigheid, en die lieflike natuurskoon in ons omgewing beleef. Die stilte help ook vir beter kommunikasie en kwaliteit kuiers, waarvoor ons so min deesdae kans kry.

Fantasies en baie gerieflik.

The shed was glad nie wat ek verwag het nie, maar ons kon dit laat werk dit was stil rustig en privaat net wat ons nodig gehad het die eienaars was vriendelik en het probeer help waar hulle kan en het ons verblyf gerieflik gemaak sal enige tyd weer teruggaan.

Dit was die mooiste plekkie waarin ek nog gebly het.

Dit was ons honeymoon en ons was verras deur Marinda om ons te opgradeer na die Cottage toe met die voetjiebad as 'n geskenk. Die plekkie was so mooi skoon en vintage met bietjie Suidwes daarby. Marinda het uit haar pad gegaan om ons so welkom te laat voel en alles wat sy ekstra gedoen het om alles so mooi spesiaals te maak die beskuit, die sjokolade, o ja, en die Guvas in die yskas met room. Sal beslis weer daar by The Yard gaan kuier.

It was the most beautiful place I have ever stayed.

It was our honeymoon and we were surprised by Marinda to upgrade us to the Cottage with the foot bath as a gift. The place was so nice clean and vintage with a bit of Southwest to it. Marinda went out of her way to make us feel so welcome and everything she did extra to make everything so nice and special, the rusks, the chocolate, oh yes, and the Guvas in the fridge with cream. Will definitely visit The Yard again.

Gasvry en waarde vir geld.

Kan The Yard sterk aanbeveel, netjiese skoon gerieflike kamers. Eienaars is baie gasvry en behulpsaam en het uit hul pad gegaan om dit vir ons soos 'n tuiste te laat voel. Ons klein hondjie het ook baie lekker gespeel in die ruim erf. Waarde vir geld. Puik diens.

Hospitable and value for money.

Can highly recommend The Yard. Neat clean comfortable rooms. Owners are very hospitable and helpful and have gone out of their way to make us feel at home. Our little puppy also enjoyed playing in the spacious yard. Value for money. Great service.

Die verblyf is goed vir een aand.

Die buite huisie is goed beplan, maar die plafon hoogte van 2,3 m veroorsaak dat die sitkamer en kombuis gedeelte ondraaglik warm word. Die slaapkamer, kombuis, sitkamer, stort, bad (wat nie gebruik mag word nie) en toilet word geskei met gordyne. As jy die toilet gebruik, moet jy die mense wat kuier uit die huis jaag. A.g.v. die weer, was twee van die drie aande nie plesierig om die buitebraai te gebruik nie. Die braai binne die huis wat vir ongure weer bedoel is, was gesluit vir gebruik. A.g.v. die afval yster en bourommel op die werf, was parkering ook baie moeilik. Daar was lugreëling in die slaapkamer. Die warm water stelsel moes elke dag af geskakel word. Ek weet nie hoekom nie, want daar is geen besparing omtrent dit nie. Geen TV was beskikbaar nie.

The accommodation is good for one night.

The outside of the house is well planned, but the ceiling height of 2.3 m causes the living room and kitchen area to become unbearably hot. The bedroom, kitchen, living room, shower, bath (which may not be used) and toilet are separated with curtains. If you use the toilet, you have to chase the people visiting out of the house. Because of the weather, two of the three nights it was not pleasant to use the outdoor barbecue. The braai inside the house intended for inclement weather was closed for use. Because of the scrap iron and construction debris on the site, parking was also very difficult. There was air conditioning in the bedroom. The hot water system had to be turned off every day. I don't know why because there is no saving about it. No TV was available.

Netjies en naby die strand.

Marinda en haar man is baie aangenaam en vriendelik. Hulle hondjie Nina het vinnig maats gemaak met ons hondjie en ons het lekker gebly. Etes buite op die stoep is heerlik. Die strand en oulike winkeltjies is baie naby.

Marinda and her husband are very pleasant and friendly. Their little dog Nina quickly made friends with our little dog and we had a great stay. Meals outside on the stoep are delicious. The beach and cute shops are very close.

A hidden gem!

This place is indeed a hidden gem with tiny unexpected details, which makes this place feel like a home away from home. The kind nature of the hostess Marinda makes check-in feel warm and welcoming.
