Beautiful, friendly and safe. We loved our stay at Mountain Haven Guest House. The location is breathtaking, the rooms are quirky and unique (if a bit small), and the host, Vincent, was excellent in helping us navigate the scenery and making sure we have everything we need.

Uncontrived. Between trees and plants. Comfortable and clean accommodation. Everything you need for a weekend.

Ongekunsteld. Tussen bome en plante. Gerieflike en skoon verblyf. Alles wat nodig is vir 'n naweek.

Not nice. The unit I booked was dark, damp and super depressing, so I asked to be moved. Vince very kindly upgraded me to a sunnier room, but I still found the place a bit sad and neglected. The mattresses need replacing as they are too soft. It is also very noisy as it is on the main road from Nelspruit.

Hi Mandy, Thank you for your review. Apologies, we normally air the rooms, especially with all the rain, but because I was away, unfortunately, this was not done. I personally tried the mattresses after your comment and found them comfortable; some people may find a mattress too soft, some might find it too hard, (and not because of its age) if customers find either or, I'm quite willing to change the mattress or put them in another unit, if we have space. We are next to the main road going past Kaapsehoop, which generally is dead quiet at night, unless they are harvesting timber in the area, in which case there will be a logging truck every half an hour or so. We describe ourselves as rustic, unfortunately, there are no great expanses of stainless steel, plastic or glass, we have tried to build in the original style of the village. We spend around 130 man/women hours a week cleaning, maintaining and improving. So no neglect, but we appreciate your review as it affords us the opportunity to fix specific problems (if stated). I'm sorry you were depressed and good luck with your drive up through Africa. Regards Vince

Hallo Mandy, Dankie vir jou resensie. Verskoning, ons lug gewoonlik die kamers uit, veral met al die reën, maar omdat ek weg was, is dit ongelukkig nie gedoen nie. Ek het persoonlik die matrasse na jou kommentaar probeer en dit gemaklik gevind; sommige mense vind dalk 'n matras te sag, sommige vind dit dalk te hard, (en nie as gevolg van sy ouderdom nie) as kliënte een of, ek is heel gewillig om die matras te verander of in 'n ander eenheid te sit, as ons spasie het . Ons is langs die hoofpad wat verby Kaapsehoop gaan, wat oor die algemeen snags doodstil is, tensy hulle besig is om hout in die omgewing te oes, in welke geval daar elke halfuur of wat 'n houtvragmotor sal wees. Ons beskryf onsself as rustiek, ongelukkig is daar geen groot uitspansels van vlekvrye staal, plastiek of glas nie, ons het probeer om in die oorspronklike styl van die dorp te bou. Ons spandeer ongeveer 130 man/vrou-ure per week aan skoonmaak, instandhouding en verbetering. So geen verwaarlosing nie, maar ons waardeer jou resensie aangesien dit ons die geleentheid bied om spesifieke probleme op te los (indien vermeld). Ek is jammer jy was depressief en sterkte met jou rit deur Afrika. Groete Vince

Simple, clean accommodation, perfect for a quick weekend getaway. Enjoyed our stay very much. Clean accommodation and Vince was always helpful where needed.

Eenvoudige, skoon akkommodasie, perfect vir 'n vinnige naweek wegbreek. Het ons verblyf vreeslik baie geniet. Skoon akkommodasie en Vince was altyd hulpvaardig waar benodig was.

It had been pretty cosy, a bit small but completely passable. The only thing that bothered me was that it is so close to the main road, but that's my personal opinion. I come from a farm where everything is dead quiet, that's why I say it's my personal opinion.

Dit was lekke cosy gewees, bietjie klein maar heeltemal gangbaar. Die enigste ding wat gepla het, was dat dit so naby is aan die grootpad, maar dis my persoonlike opinie. Ek kom van 'n plaas af waar alles doodstil is, dit is hoekom ek sê dis my persoonlike opinie.

Thanks for the reveiw Kobus. The village is a destination for day visitors, especially on long weekends. Evenings we don t normally have any traffic at all, unless Sappi is harvesting in the area, in which case we might have a truck once every hour or two. Most people from the city comment that they are not used to the quiet at night, besides the crying of the jackals.

Dankie vir die resensie Kobus. Die dorpie is 'n bestemming vir dagbesoekers, veral oor langnaweke. Saans het ons normaalweg glad nie verkeer nie, tensy Sappi in die area oes, in welke geval ons dalk een keer elke uur of twee 'n vragmotor het. Die meeste mense van die stad sê dat hulle nie gewoond is aan die stilte in die nag nie, behalwe die gehuil van die jakkalse.
