Quiet, comfortable accommodation with delicious breakfast.
The large plot with well-established garden and nature areas is ideal for peace of mind and a break from the city's noise. Guest rooms are located in such a way that one still feels separate from the other guests. The breakfast served is of chef quality and is already worth a visit. The caretaker/chef is extremely helpful.

Overnight after Function.
The guest house is clean and tidy although I was slightly disappointed in breakfast. 1. The dining room is bitterly cold with no heating system switched on. 2. Dinner was booked for 09h00 and food didn't arrive until 09h30. 3. No plates or bowls for scooping. 4. Plates that were brought were so cold they froze your hands causing your food to be cold before you even sat down. Focus on this detail and your place will be great.

Unpleasant stay experience.
The outside of the room was dirty, the stairs to the room as well as the place where the table is outside. There were cobwebs everywhere in the room that had been there for some time. We booked the room for 4 people, but there were only 3 glasses and cups, as well as only 3 chairs outside. The mattresses on the beds are worn through and very creaky. There was an unpleasant smell in the room and also outside. It was arranged with us that we should eat breakfast at 8 o'clock as there was a large group expected for 9 o'clock. However, we were informed by the kitchen that breakfast is only at 9 o'clock. So we didn't have any breakfast. The ponds outside are covered with a green plant. The office could not find the room key and we had to sleep with an unlocked door. The estate presents itself as a 4 star establishment but our experience was definitely not 4 star.

Goeie dag Brigitte,
Graag spreek ek jou punte van kommentaar as volg aan:
Die kamer is ‘n buite eenheid. Die bome en weelderige plantegroei vorm die grootste deel van ons tuin. Siende dat dit nou herfs is skud die bome maar blare af.
Ons kamers word daagliks deeglik skoongemaak en geïnspekteer. Spinnerakke vorm egter binne minute weer. Die breekware tekort het ek met ons huishouding span opneem om te voorkom dat dit weer gebeur.
Ons gebruik Cloud 9 matrasse wat gereeld nagegaan word. Om ons landelike tema deur te trek gebruik ons antieke Imbuia meubels. Ons probeer wel om die meubels, ongeag hul ouderdom, goed in stand te hou.
Dit is baie moontlik dat die reuk buite die kamer kon wees van die plaaslike boerdery aktiwiteite in die omgewing waar o.a. voerkrale is. Met inspeksie van ons span kon nie een van ons ‘n onaangename reuk in die kamer waarneem nie.
Julle het met aankoms aangedui dat julle nie deel van die funksie is nie en graag 08:00 ontbyt wil eet. Daar is egter deur die loop van die aand ‘n kroeg rekening by die funksie op julle kamer nommer geopen. Die rekening is wel aan die einde van die funksie ten volle vereffen. Die span aan diens het toe aangeneem dat julle deel van die funksie was en dus saam met die groep om 09:00 sou eet soos die bruid versoek het. Die kombuisspan was wel net na 08:00 gereed om vir julle ontbyt te bedien, maar julle was nie bereid om enkele minute te wag nie en het verkies om te vertrek.
Die dammetjies is oortrek met die plant “Duckweed”. Hierdie is ‘n finominale plant. Eerstens verskaf dit voedsel aan water voëls en skuiling aan die paddas. Tweedens, hou dit al ons dammetjies skoon, reuk vry en dit voorkom ook die uitbroei van muskiete. Ons is hou dus met groot entosiasme hierdie plantjie in die dammetjies aan.
Verskoning vir enige ongerief dat ons nie die sleutel onmiddelik aan julle kon oorhandig met aankoms nie. Die bruidegom het per ongeluk gaan trou met die sleutel in sy sak. Ons kon gelukkig die sleutel later by hom kry en dit is wel aan julle oorhandig.
Ons koester ons 4-ster wat gradering wat ons reeds vir 8 jaar agtereenvolgens verwerf het. Ons jongste gradering het ons Oktober 2018 geslaag.
Groete
Marike

Thoroughly relaxed and would love to go again.
Was disappointed that the extras included in the rate wasn't in the room. Wanted to surprise my wife with the champagne, flowers, chocolates and strawberries the moment she entered. According to them it wasn't included. After making a phone call it was rectified. We went there to relax and that's exactly what we did. Breakfast was excellent and everything was pleasant.

Goeiedag Innis,
Ons is jammer dat die verblyf nie aan jou verwagtinge voldoen het nie. Ons is egter trots daarop, en ons word wel gereeld deur kliënte daaroor gekomplimenteer dat ons bemarking en foto's ‘n ware beeld van ons gastehuis is.
Ons het die punte wat u per e-pos onder ons aandag gebring het nagegaan en daarvolgens geantwoord. Ons glo dat u die terugvoer ontvang het. Ons kan verder met trots noem dat ons in die eerste week van Oktober hierdie jaar deur die South African Tourism Grading Council gegradeer is en 'n 4-ster gradering verwerf het.
Naskrif: Die lae gradering deur jou m.b.t. ons sekuriteit is nie vir ons duidelik nie aangesien ons perseel toegangsbeheer by die hek het, daar is ‘n 24-uur wag aan diens, asook te alle tye ‘n personeellid op die perseel. Ons gaste se veiligheid is vir ons ononderhandelbaar en alle moontlike voorsorg word getref om die perseel veilig, skoon en gerieflik te hou.
Groete,
Marike

Good day Robert,
Thank you for the feedback on your stay with us. I'm terribly sorry that you did not get to enjoy a breakfast with us. As arranged upon your arrival, breakfast was ready at 7am. We missed you when you did not join us for breakfast.
Our Antique Imboya furniture is part of our country decor. Our beds, however, have Cloud 9 mattresses for ultimate comfort. We also believe that the photos on our listing and our website is a true representation of our rooms.
Please feel free to contact us directly should you have any suggestions on how we can further improve our rooms. We are always open to new ideas and suggestions.
Regards,
