It was a total mess.
The little room we were given to sleep in was a mess. It's tiny, but it's not the worst problem. It does not look at all like the photos shown. It was a struggle to get into the place. I called and got no answer and then the hostess came out. The people apologized that the rest of the house was a mess because they were doing repairs. The house is dirty and creepy. We (me and my 86-year-old mother) had to stay in a room where not much work. She tried to take a shower that night, but the water was cold. The faucet at the 1 small, squeaky sink is loose. The kettle's lid is broken. The one water glass was dirty. The shower is just like that in the room. There is a small television that doesn't actually work either. He also seems to only have SABC1, 2 and 3 on. The beds were cleanly covered, but the whole room looks smooth and completely unlike the photos. I actually didn't want to go in there, but I didn't want to drive any further, 2 women alone. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures of our room. So yesterday morning I just got dressed and drove. I didn't want to drink coffee or do anything else there. 1 positive thing that did happen is that I was able to store my cold things in their freezer for the night. So, at least it had been good. And another positive point is that our car was inside a lock-up garage. I would just suggest that if you are offering your home as a guest house and you are doing restorations, stay off the market for that time. I also expect the host to at least look tidy when I arrive.
Dit was 'n totale gemors.
Die kamertjie wat ons gekry het om in te slaap was 'n gemors. Dis piepklein, maar dis nie die ergste probleem nie. Dit lyk glad en geheel nie soos die foto's wat vertoon word nie. Dit was 'n gesukkel om by die plek in te kom. Ek het geskakel en nie antwoord gekry nie en daarna kom die gasvrou uit. Die mense het verskoning gevra dat die res van die huis deurmekaar is, want hulle's besig met herstelwerk. Die huis is vuil en grillerig. Ons (ek en my 86-jarige ma) moes in 'n kamer bly waar nie veel werk nie. Sy't probeer stort die aand, maar water was koud. Die kraan by die 1 klein, pieperige wasbakkie is los. Die ketel se deksel is stukkend. Die een waterglas was vuil. Die stort is sommer so in die kamer. Daar is 'n televisietjie wat ook nie eintlik werk nie. Hy het ook blykbaar net SABC1, 2 en 3 op. Die beddens was skoon oorgetrek, maar die hele kamer lyk glad en geheel nie soos die foto's nie. Ek wou eintlik nie daar ingaan nie, maar ek wou nie, 2 vrouens alleen, verder ry nie. Ek's jammer ek't nie foto's van ons kamer geneem nie. Ek het dus ook gisteroggend net aangetrek en gery. Ek wou nie koffie drink of enigeiets anders daar doen nie. 1 positiewe ding wat wel gebeur het is dat ek my koue goed in hul vrieskas kon stoor vir die nag. So, dit was darem goed gewees. En nog 'n positiewe punt is dat ons kar binne-in 'n toesluit-garage was. Ek sou net voorstel dat as jy jou huis as gastehuis aanbied en jy's met restourasies besig, bly uit die mark vir daardie tyd. Ek verwag ook van die gasvrou/-heer om ten minste netjies te lyk as ek opdaag.

Place is beautiful place to stay in. We are definitely booking it again for next year.
Owner need to take more pics of the place. The ones on the website don't do any justice of how the place looks. Beautiful I tell you.

Owner's mother smokes and there are ashtrays with stubs everywhere.
I moved to Natal from the Cape. Looking for a place to spend the night with my dog. If you have a dog it is certainly ok, but it is an old house and the whole place smells of smoke. My dog could sleep inside and I could pull my bakkie and pram in the garage which was great.
Eienaar se ma rook en orals is daar asbakkies met stompies.
Ek het getrek na Natal van die Kaap af. Plek gesoek om te oornag met my hond. As jy 'n hond het is dit sekerlik ok, maar dit is 'n ou huis en die hele plek ruik na rook. My hond kon binne slaap en ek kon my bakkie en waentjie in die motorhuis trek wat puik was.

It was a present stay.
I was received with open arms every evening when I came back from the hospital. I had support for all at Belmar.

Nice stay!
We are very familiar with Belmar Guesthouse, our assessors (engineers) who stayed there were very satisfied with the accommodation provided to them.
Lekker gebly!
Ons is baie vertroud met Belmar Guesthouse, ons assessors (ingenieurs) wat daar gebly het, was baie tevrede met die akkommodasie wat aan hulle verskaf is.
