Felt like we were family coming to visit.
We enjoyed it very much. There were even lamps that they put on when we got there in loadshedding. Will stay there again!

Lekker. Eienaar moet net enkele veranderings aanbring.

Translate to English.
Nice. Owner only needs to make some changes.
Unfortunately it was loadshedding when we arrived. The house had only two paraffin lamps and no gas stove, and not even a grill outside, so we couldn't cook anything or even just make coffee. It was very disappointing. Flashlights would also be a much better option than the paraffin lamps. Otherwise a cute place and very tidy.

Oud en afgeleef.

Old and shabby.
Poor communication from owner - asked twice about water and got no answer. Very hot with fan in second bedroom (which you can't keep separate, stays on with light meaning you can't sleep) and nothing in master bedroom.

Picturesque place. Rained a lot, so couldn't do much. Rested well.
We got our reservations wrong and were a day late. When we realized our mistake, we immediately called the manager. He was so kind and helpful. Our accommodation was moved to another place a day later without any additional payment. So I can't answer last 2 questions.

Koeligheid waardeer op snikhete dag.

Coolness appreciated on a sweltering day.
Moved us to an air conditioned unit on a sweltering day. So it was pleasant. However, air conditioning is only in the living room, but a ceiling fan helped in the small room. However, the power went off when the neighbors switched on air conditioning. Maybe also fill freezer bowls with water so that there is ice. During load shedding we also had no water.

Hanging out was nice, but no oven was available, no wifi and also no gas in the gas stove.
We would have liked Wifi and also better cooking facilities. The television has a funny sound that it makes, a bit painful to the ears. Gas stove also did not have gas in it. Had to keep kids quiet so as not to bother the neighbors. Was a bit uncomfortable with small children.

Disappointing.
There is no WiFi as advertised. In my opinion, this is misrepresentation. Parking is off street as advertised but cannot be classed as "secure". Old house adapted to function as a guest house.
