Uitstekende plek om te rus en te ontspan.

Ek en my vrou het ons tyd by Woodcutters Guest House baie geniet. Michelle en Mark, die eienaars, was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Die verblyf was netjies en skoon met 'n mooi uitsig. Haenerstburg is 'n pragtige klein dorpie en die Magoebaskloof area oor die algemeen is regtig iets om te sien en te beleef. Ons kan beslis aanbeveel.

Excellent place to rest and relax.

My wife and I really enjoyed our time at Woodcutters Guest House. Michelle and Mark, the owners, were very friendly and helpful. The accommodation was neat and clean with a nice view. Haenerstburg is a beautiful little town and the Magoebaskloof area in general is really something to see and experience. We can definitely recommend.

I only expected a fireplace in room. Room very cold and no view.

I will not go again as the room was dark and cold, no fireplace as in pictures, road to get there is not nice and room has no view. But owner was very friendly and room is super clean. Felt very welcome.

Salig in die berge.

Die gasvryheid van Mark en Michelle was puik. Wat ons gekry het was presies wat ons beloof is. Heerlike ontbyt (op bestelling) en baie rustig en vreedsaam. Ook naby aan Haenertsburg vir restaurant besoeke en reise in en om Magoebaskloof. Werklik 'n juweel. Wees wel bedag op die toegangspad wat nie geskik is vir lae sedans nie.

Bliss in the mountains.

The hospitality of Mark and Michelle was great. What we got was exactly what we were promised. Delicious breakfast (to order) and very quiet and peaceful. Also close to Haenertsburg for restaurant visits and trips in and around Magoebaskloof. Truly a gem. Do be aware of the access road which is not suitable for low sedans.

Stil en rustig.

Die plekkie is ideaal geleë, weg van besige pad. Dis so rustig en die natuur is mooi. Kan lekker voëlkyk en vir stappies gaan in die woud. Baie dankie vir Marc en Michelle se gasvryheid. Die eenheid was baie netjies en skoon. Nie te klein nie, net reg vir 'n oornag .

Perfek vir 'n naweekwegbreek.

Pragtige plekkie vir 'n naweek se wegbreek. Die pad in (vanaf die hoofpad) is 'n grondpad met klippe so ek beveel aan dat mens nie met 'n te laag kar moet gaan nie. Die kamer en badkamer is ruim en baie mooi uitgelê. Die view vanaf die stoepie is presies soos op die foto's en net wat ons wou gehad het.

Perfect for a weekend getaway.

Beautiful place for a weekend getaway. The way in (from the main road) is a dirt road with stones so I recommend that one should not go with a car that is too low. The room and bathroom are spacious and very nicely laid out. The view from the stoepie is exactly as in the photos and just what we wanted.

It's a very chilled and quiet place.

The place is away from everything. You need some sort of entertainment like your pool, your TV in the room. It must not be dead quiet. Good if you need some peace and relaxation.

Hi there Celest, Thank you for your review. We are well known for the peace and tranquillity of our area where people can just relax and unwind from the hussle and bussle of city life, although the Haenertsburg Village with Pubs, and shops is a mere 3 km from Woodcutters Guest House. Wishing you a very Merry Festive Season and a Prosperous 2019.

Lovely setting, great hosts.

Sadly I stayed just one night. It's in a lovely setting with very friendly hosts. The location on Google Maps should be improved so one gets directed to the house and not just somewhere near the turnoff. If I'd had time to work then a table or desk would have come in handy. Be prepared for power outages in the area, we had another one while I was there.

Lekker geslaap, maar gebrek aan elektrisiteit het sake bemoeilik.

Daar was geen elektrisiteit beskikbaar tydens ons kort verblyf daar nie. Ek besef die hele omgewing se krag was af, maar dis nie gemaklik om voor te berei vir 'n troue daarsonder nie en om die volgende oggend in koue water te stort is minder aangenaam. Ons is wel gekookte water aangebied vir koffie maak met ons aankoms, asook die volgende oggend. 'n Flits is ook voorsien. Ons waardeer die moeite. Ek dink 'n kragopwekker vir sulke noodtoestande is egter noodsaaklik. Die kamer het nie gordyne wat die mooi groot vensters heeltemaal kan toemaak om volle privaatheid te verseker wanneer benodig nie. Gelukkig het ons 'n viertrek voertuig gery. Die paadjie na die lodge kan gevaarlik glyerig raak as dit reën.

Slept well, but lack of electricity made it a bit difficult.

There was no electricity available while we stayed there. I realise the whole town's power was out, but it wasn't comfortable to get ready for the wedding and to shower with cold water the next was very unpleasant. We were offered boiled water for coffee when we arrived, as well as the next morning. A flash light was also provided. We appreciate the effort. I do, however, feel that a generator is necessary for times like these. The room doesn't have curtains to cover the whole window for privacy when needed. Luckily our vehicle could handle the road. The road to the lodge is dangerously slippery when it rains.

Ons verblyf was baie nice gewees. Die eienaars van die plek het seker gemaak ons is gemaklik en dat ons als het wat ons benodig. Oulike plekkie vir 'n paartjie om te gaan bly, veral as dit mistig is in die are is dit baie romaties en cosy. Kan lekke voëls ook kyk en is naby Haenertsburg geleë. Sal beslis weer daar gaan bly!

Fantastic service.

We arrived at Woodcutters and was greeted by Michelle and Mark and shown to our room, which was very nice with a fantastic view. We went to the local village for some pizza and upon our return we were informed that there was no water or electricity due to circumstances beyond their control. They quickly made a plan and offered to put us up at another guest house just up the road as they knew it would be unpleasant to not have water or electricity for the night especially considering my wife is far along in her pregnancy. Very nice people.
