Calm and quiet just what I needed. Arendsnes is well located close to the river but still feels like you are in the woods. It is very comfortable and has everything you need.

Rustig en stil net wat ek nodig gehad het. Arendsnes is goed geleë naby die rivier, maar dit voel nog steeds asof jy in die bos is. Dit is baie gerieflik en het alles wat jy nodig het.

Everything you need in one lovely cottage near the river. Thank you for a lovely weekend. The location is near the river, you can hear the manatees from the river. Everything you need is there. From indoor braai to a boma/outdoor braai with camping chairs too. Sent all the details through and helped where needed. Will recommend for sure.

Alles wat jy nodig het in een heerlike kothuis naby die rivier. Dankie vir 'n heerlike naweek. Die ligging is naby die rivier, jy kan die seekoeie hoor van die rivier af. Alles wat jy nodig het is daar. Van binne braai tot 'n boma/buitebraai met kampstoele ook. Het al die detail deur gestuur en het gehelp waar nodig was. Sal vir seker aanbeveel.

Would come back again. Gorgeous location and house, Secericon in the area were also spectacular as we had a medical emergency and they were extremely helpful and friendly.

Very nice stay. The place is very nice. It is very peaceful and quiet, and the hostess was very helpful. There is basically everything you need. Another thing, the rules: I understand all the rules, but all the rules make you feel like you have to be careful using something or that you're going to do something wrong. Like I say, I understand why there are rules, but they're not always fun either. One example, at the sink in the kitchen there is a rule that if you don't wash the dishes, a fine of R250 is charged, and if you don't throw away the dirt, a fine of R150. I think it's a bit ridiculous. Cleaning services are normally included in your total accommodation costs. Throwing away your rubbish is also not convenient, there is no place to throw it away at home. You have to take it with you when you go out and throw it in the main garbage dump, which I don't agree with either. I'm not complaining at all, I'm just saying. But apart from that, we really enjoyed it and really enjoyed our stay there.

Baie lekker gebly. Die plek is baie lekker. Dit is baie rustig en stil, en die gasvrou was baie behulpsaam. Daar is basies alles wat jy nodig het. Nog 'n ding, die reëls: Ek verstaan al die reëls, maar al die reëls laat jou voel dat jy versigtig moet wees om iets te gebruik of dat jy iets verkeerd gaan doen. Soos ek sê, ek verstaan hoekom daar reëls is, maar dis ook nie altyd lekker nie. Een voorbeeld, by die wasbak in die kombuis is daar 'n reël dat as jy nie die skottelgoed was nie, daar 'n boete van R250 gehef word, en as jy nie die vuilgoed weggooi nie, 'n boete van R150. Ek dink dit is 'n bietjie belaglik. Normaalweg is skoonmaakdienste ingesluit by jou totale verblyfkostes. Om jou vuilgoed weg te gooi is ook nie gerieflik nie, daar is geen plek om dit by die huis weg te gooi nie. Jy moet dit saam met jou vat as jy uitgaan en dit by die hoofvullishoop gaan weggooi, wat ek ook nie mee saamstem nie. Ek kla glad nie, ek sê maar net. Maar behalwe vir dit, het ons dit baie geniet en regtig lekker daar gebly.

Thanks for your feedback, Mynhardt. Unfortunately, it is a forest house with a lot of wood in the middle of the forest. There are certain things one should do to prevent termites, cockroaches and ants from overrunning the house. Dirty dishes and trash bags easily attract an infestation of insects. I would like to keep the house as insect-free as possible for all guests who live there. Some guests use all the crockery and kitchen items and leave them like that, this causes a large influx of insects and baboons who smell it and try to break open the house. Unfortunately, the dishes must be washed before guests leave for home. Most guests leave on a Sunday and cleaners don't come in until Monday. The bins are no longer removed by the city council, so we ask that guests take them to Marloth's rubbish area, a few meters from where you have to hand in the key anyway. Unfortunately, you can't leave it in the street. Hippos, mongooses and monkeys will tear it open and scatter it in the field for which I will be fined. Sorry it was so inconvenient for you, but this is a self-catering house.

Dankie vir jou terugvoer, Mynhardt. Dit is ongelukkig 'n boshuis met baie hout in die middel van die bos. Daar is sekere dinge wat 'n mens moet doen om te verhoed dat termiete, kokkerotte en miere die huis oortrek. Vuil skottelgoed en asbliksakke lok maklik 'n plaag van insekte. Ek wil graag die huis sover moontlik insekvry hou vir alle gaste wat daar woon. Party gaste gebruik al die breekware en kombuis items en los dit net so, dit veroorsaak 'n groot toeloop van insekte en bobbejane wat dit ruik en die huis probeer oopbreek. Die skottelgoed moet ongelukkig gewas word voor gaste vertrek huistoe. Meeste gaste vertrek op 'n Sondag en skoonmakers kom eers Maandag in. Die asblikke word nie meer deur die stadsraad verwyder nie, daarom vra ons dat gaste dit neem na Marloth se vullis area, 'n paar meter van waar jy in elk geval die sleutel moet ingee. Ongelukkig kan jy dit nie voor in straat los nie. Bobejaane, mongoose en apies sal dit oopskeur en in die veld strooi waarvoor ek beboet word. Jammer dit was vir jou so ongerieflik, maar dit is 'n selfsorg huis.

Pleasant, nice and cool room with A/C. Had a nice stay. We understand the function of the partitions which are for privacy, but they obstruct the view. Kitchen was just very hot. Freestanding fan not very effective.

Aangenaam, kamer lekker koel met A/C. Het lekker gebly. Ons verstaan die funksie van die afskortings wat dien vir privaatheid, maar dit belemmer die uitsig. Kombuis was net baie warm. Losstaande waaier nie baie effektief nie.

Thank you for your feedback. It was definitely very hot during the time you were there - but I'll see if we can put a stronger fan in the kitchen. You can't please everyone, no matter how hard you try; most again complain badly about privacy, hence the partitions. The partitions are of such a nature that animals can still move freely between and under the door. Also to provide privacy when guests want to barbecue or just be outside.

Dankie vir jul terugvoer. Dit was beslis baie warm oor die tydperk wat jul daar was - maar ek sal kyk of ons 'n sterker waaier in die kombuis kan insit. Mens kan ook nie almal tevrede stel nie, al probeer mens hoe hard; die meeste kla weer erg oor privaatheid, daarom die afskortings. Die afskortings is van so aard dat diere juis nog vrylik kan beweeg tussenin en onderdeur. Ook om privaatheid te bied wanneer gaste buite braai of net buite wil wees.

Fantastic! What a fantastic place it was. Arendsnes was so clean when we walked in there. Everything was neat, tidy. Terribly neat. What we needed was there! I especially liked our wardrobe and kitchen cupboard (from then until now)! You really made our whole year. There had been many animals, bought a whole 40 kg from Marlothp's cooperative. Animals have everything. We had such a good time and all the animals that arrived there also enjoyed us so much. Thank you for an unforgettable week.

Fantasties! Wat 'n fantastiese plekkie was dit nou nie. Arendsnes was so skoon toe ons daar ingestap het. Alles was netjies, netjies. Vreeslik netjies. Dit wat ons nodig gehad het, was daar! Ek het veral ook baie gehou van ons klerekas en kombuiskas (van toeka tot nou)! Julle het regtig ons hele jaar gemaak. Daar was baie diere gewees, 'n hele 40 kg by Marlothp se koöperasie gaan koop. Diere het alles op. Ons het so lekker gekuier en al die diere wat daar aangekom het, het ons ook so geweldig baie geniet. Dankie vir 'n onvergeetlike week.
