Stil area wat 'n goeie nagrus vir seker verseker.

Heerlike rustige plek, ons kon lekker op die grasperk onder die skadubome ons maaltyd geniet. Ons voertuig was baie veilig agter 'n hek en by die voorstoep om aflaai te vergemaklik.

Quiet area that ensures a good night's rest for sure.

Lovely quiet place, we could enjoy our meal on the lawn under the shade trees. Our vehicle was very secure behind a gate and at the front porch to facilitate unloading.

Skoon en gerieflike kamer met ordentlike matrasse. Heerlik geslaap, dankie.

Geriewe was skoon en netjies. Voertuig was veilig. Ons het heerlik TV gekyk en gerus. Sou 'n teesakkie waardeer het.

Baie goed geprys vir wat jy kry. Dankie Thorn Ikhaya Guest House.

Ons het baie lekker gebly en lekker met die eienaar gesels. As mede gastehuiseienaars verstaan ons die bedryf en dit sou lekker gewees het as die enkelbeddens kom gewerk het as 'n dubbelbed ook. Net 'n voorstel. Dis nie die skuld nie, maar die toegang tot die gastehuis is moeilik met 'n lae voertuig. Skande hoe die dorp se paaie lyk.

Very well priced for what you get. Thank you Thorn Ikhaya Guest House.

We had a great stay and had a nice chat with the owner. As fellow guest house owners we understand the industry and it would have been nice if the single beds worked as a double bed too. Just a suggestion. It's not the fault, but the access to the guest house is difficult with a low vehicle. Shame what the town's roads look like.

Ons is vriendelik, gasvry ontvang.

Die kamer en badkamer was in 'n netjiese toestand. Die eienaars kan meer betrokke wees en seker maak alles is in orde. Daar was nie skottelgoedseep en 'n afdroogvadoek nie. Net 2 stukkies beskuit in die houer. Ons sal ook verkies dat daar platlakens oor die beddens is. Dit was te warm vir 'n duvet. Maar ten spyte van hierdie klagtes sal ons weer daarvan gebruik maak indien nodig en sal ek die verblyf aanbeveel vir ander mense.

We received a friendly, hospitable welcome.

The room and bathroom were in a neat condition. The owners can be more involved and make sure everything is in order. There was no dish soap and no dish towel. Only 2 pieces of rusk in the container. We would also prefer that there are flat sheets over the beds. It was too hot for a duvet. But despite these complaints we will use it again if necessary and I would recommend the accommodation to other people.

Baie lekker geslaap. Mooi groen en netjies.

Veilige parkering vir kar en trailer. Baie ruim. Sal dalk net bietjie gemakliker tuinstoele buite wil hê. Nie genoeg sitplek vir almal buite gewees nie. Sal definitief weer hier oorslaap.

Die ontvangs was vriendelik en die eienaar het moeite gedoen om ons tevrede te stel!

Die gastehuis is in 'n stil buurt geleë. Ek dink nie die aanwysings na Thorn Ikhaya is deurgaans maklik en duidelik nie! Deur te vra het ons gelukkig maklik ons bestemming bereik! Straatname is nie altyd duidelik aangedui nie! Die verblyf was aangenaam. Die gasheer kan dalk vir meer hang- en plasingsplek in die badkamer sorg.

The guest house is located in a quiet neighborhood. I don't think the directions to Thorn Ikhaya are all easy and clear! Fortunately, by asking we easily reached our destination! Street names are not always clearly indicated! The stay was pleasant. The host may provide more hanging and placing space in the bathroom.

Teleurstellend.

Ons het Thorn Ikhaya gekies op grond van sy goeie resensies op die webtuiste, maar ons ervaring was teleurstellend. Hoewel albei beddens elektriese komberse gehad het, was daar nie bolakens nie, wat beteken het dat ons direk onder die kwilt/duvet moes slaap. Ou korrespondensie van vorige gaste is in die bedkassie, asook in een van die kombuiskaste gevind. Daar was nie vurke of lepels in die kamer in hierdie selfsorgeenheid nie, en ons moes dit aanvra. Volgens die eienares moes van die vorige gaste dit weggedra het. Sy het ook erken dat sy nie die eenheid nagegaan het voordat ons daarin geplaas is nie. Dit laat mens dus wonder of die kwilt ooit gewas was nadat vorige gaste daaronder geslaap het! Behalwe twee kroegstoeltjies by die ingeboude tafel, was daar geen ander stoele in die kamer nie of 'n staander waarop tasse geplaas kon word nie. Daar is geen hangplek in die badkamer vir klere nie, en ook nie 'n badkamerkassie of iets om toiletware te plaas terwyl die fasiliteit gebruik word nie. Ons het maar van die kroegstoeltjies vir die doel gebruik. Die "braaigeriewe" bestaan uit 'n lendelam, draagbare roostertjie. Die onnet agterplaas van die woonhuis kan ongelukkig ook nie gemis word wanneer mens by die eenheid in of uitgaan nie. Daar is ook net 'n gewone deur tussen die eenheid en die aangrensende eenheid, en die klerekas is daarvoor geskuif. Gelukkig was daar nie gaste in laasgenoemde nie, want dit moet seker 'n impak op gaste se privaatheid he. 'n Elektriese tweeplaatstofie in die kombuiskas is stokoud en was vuil.

Disappointing.

We chose Thorn Ikhaya based on its good reviews on the website, but our experience was disappointing. Although both beds had electric blankets, there were no top sheets, which meant we had to sleep directly under the quilt/duvet. Old correspondence from previous guests was found in the bedside table, as well as in one of the kitchen cupboards. There were no forks or spoons in the room in this self-catering unit, and we had to request them. According to the owner, some of the previous guests must have carried it away. She also admitted that she didn't check the unit before we were put in it. So it makes one wonder if the quilt was ever washed after previous guests slept under it! Apart from two barstools at the built-in table, there were no other chairs in the room or a stand on which to place suitcases. There is no hanging space in the bathroom for clothes, nor a bathroom cabinet or something to place toiletries while using the facility. We just used some of the bar stools for the purpose. The "braai facilities" consist of a loin, a portable grill. Unfortunately, the untidy backyard of the house cannot be missed when entering or exiting the unit. There is also just a plain door between the unit and the adjoining unit, and the wardrobe has been moved in front of it. Fortunately, there were no guests in the latter, because it must have an impact on guests' privacy. An electric two-plate stove in the kitchen cupboard is very old and dirty.

Thorn Ikhaya Guest House 's response

Geagte gas
Dankie vir die resensie. Dit word waardeer! Ek is egter baie jammer dat u 'n slegte ervaring gehad het met u oornag. Ons het egter in elke kamer 'n geel gelamineerde blad wat u uitnooi indien daar enige iets kort of fout is om ons te mag vra. Wat die bolakens betref kon u met graagte gevra het vir twee, 99 % van al my gaste is tevrede met die beddegoed soos dit tans is en ons streef daarna om vir die gaste te bied wat die meeste aangevra word! Ek kan u verseker dat die beddegoed wel gewas word. Enige mens ruik die seep in klere of beddegoed wat gewas is. U sou dadelik agter gekom het as dit nie gewas is nie. Die lepels ens. wat nie daar was nie is reggestel die oomblik toe u dit vra. Ons het egter nuwes gaan koop en in die laai kassie by kombuis gesit. Die kroeg stoele is 2 omdat 2 mense kan oorslaap met 'n eet tafel daarby ongeveer 1 meter x 1 meter. Fotos op die internet wat u kon besigtig wys min of meer hoe die kamers binne lyk. Ek is jammer as daar enige onduidelike fotos was van die kamer. Ek plaas sommer altyd my tas op die bed en pak my klere in die klere kas as ek oorbly by 'n gastehuis. Dit werk gewoonlik 100%. Daar is hangplek vir klere in die klere kas en 'n hang reling in die badkamer waaroor die handdoeke hang wat dalk kon gebruik word. Die wasbak se rand en vensterbank glo ek kan genoeg plek bied vir dit wat 'n mens dalk in die badkamer wil gebruik, maar ek sal 'n kassie of rak aanbring indien iemand dit sal wil gebruik in die toekoms. Gelukkig was die kroeg stoelle daar. Wat die braaier betref is dit groot genoeg vir so 4 persone. Van my vorige gaste wat al vir 2 of meer dae gebly het, het die braaier geniet en elke aand gebraai en hulle kon geen fout vind met hom nie. Dis nou nie 'n stainless steel braaier nie, maar ek kan dit oorweeg om 1 te laat bou wat dalk meer op u standaard kan wees. Ek is baie jammer vir my agterplaas wat on-ooglik was volgens u ,maar dis nou amper lente en ons saag bome af, gras sal nou nog dood wees en die tyd van die jaar is daar nie juis blomme nie ek sal tog vir u n fotos stuur as dit somer is en al die rose blom in die tuin en die gras groen is. Glo my dis 'n heel ander prentjie. Die deur wat daar is in die kamer is agter die klerekas, soos u weet, en word egter nie meer gebruik nie. Ek het hom laat insit met die aanbou van die 2 de kamer sodat 'n huisgesin van 4 of 5 lekker kon kuier en deur beweeg. Daar is egter 'n ingeboude kas in kamer 2 waar die kas voor die deur ingebou is vanaf die vloer to bo teen die plafon. So u hoef nie bekommerd te wees oor enige probleme met privaatheid nie. Wat die 2 plaat stofie betref is dit 1 wat onder in die kas gebêre was en nooit gebruik word nie. As u egter bo op die kas gekyk het in die kombuis area langs die mikrogolf oond sou u 'n nuwe klein oond met 2 plaat stofie kombinasie wat skoon is gesien het. Dit is die 1 wat die meeste gaste soek en gebruik.
Ek wil egter nogmaals jammer sê vir die slegte ervaring by my gastehuis.
Mag ons hemelse vader u seën dat u nooit weer so 'n slegte ervaring beleef nie.
Mag u lewens reis net vol voorspoed en seën wees.
Groete
Thornie

Veilig, goed geleë en gerieflike oorslaap vanaf die Kaap.

Die eienaar is baie behulpsaam en gasvry! Sal weer van die gastehuis gebruik maak in die toekoms.

Great halfway break.

Hopetown was a first time visit for us on our journey to the Cederberg. When you arrive in Hopetown you will soon see the Thorn iKhaya is a hidden gem. Clean, friendly hosts and very well-equipped for a stopover, and most of all it is dog friendly. We would highly recommend Thorn iKhaya in Hopetown for a day or two stopover.

Het net slaapplek gesoek vir die nag.

Kan gerus wit beddegoed gebruik. Die linne wat op die beddens was het gelyk of dit reeds gebruik was. Stort-watermengerhandvatsel is los en kan op iemand se voet val. Geen melk beskikbaar vir oggenddrinkgoed nie.

Just looking for a place to sleep for the night.

Feel free to use white bedding. The linen on the beds looked like it had already been used. Shower faucet handle is loose and could fall on someone's foot. No milk available for morning drinks.

Overnight on route back home

Well-appointed accommodation, the room had a microwave, large fridge, all the utensils you may require as well as coffee, tea and rusks were provided. The shower offers great water pressure and the towels where brand new clean and soft :) Excellent host, friendly and more than willing to assist with anything.

No comment.

Checked in in the afternoon, and after 9 in the evening the owner came knocking on the door and said that we still owed them R300 (after we had already paid the full amount almost 2 months in advance).

Ek was aangenaam verras oor die waarde vir die geld. Alles was baie netjies en skoon. Die ontvangs was vriendelik en almal was baie hulpvaardig. Ek kon heerlik rus voor ek die lang pad weer moes aanpak. Sal Thorn Ikhaya beslis aanbeveel.

Thorn Ikhaya, jou doring.

Ons en ons troeteldiere was baie vriendelik verwelkom by Thorn Ikhaya deur Nicolize, al was dit net voor 11 die aand. Die kamer was baie netjies met skoon linne en handdoeke. Die aircon was baie welkom en jou voertuig word veilig agter 'n hek voor die woonstel geparkeer. Ons sal vir seker weer terug wees.
