Very good, breakfast not value for money. Room was very nice, plenty of space and the farm is beautiful. Everything was perfect besides the breakfast. At R110 per person, I expect more than two tiny pieces of bacon and what looked like one mushroom chopped up with some scrambled egg. When the toast is the highlight of the breakfast, you have a problem. Other than the value for money on that service, the stay, room, service and people were amazing.

Dear guest Between guests' remarks of "that was way too little" and "It was too much" is the middle that, in our opinion, never works. So we regard the cooked breakfast part (Germans usually don't eat cooked meals in the morning) as the second course after yoghurt, muesli, fruit and cold meats. We like to see empty plates when our guests finish breakfasts. Keep in mind that the price of R110 includes the "first course", bottomless coffee, tea, juices and milk. And the best of it is you can have second helpings, not just once but until you can't say, "I am still hungry." Like when you ask for more coffee, you could add, "and more bacon, egg, mushrooms, tomato, etc." At Wimpy, everything costs extra; at Oude Wellington, it only costs to read the room folder and ask any of the ladies for more. The benefit of course is the extras will be hot/warm again.

The restaurant did not offer light meals. Friendly reception. Beautiful surroundings, but the garden needs some attention. The breakfast was tasty and filling.

Die restaurant het nie ligte etes aangebied nie. Vriendelike ontvangs. Mooi omgewing, maar die tuin kort bietjie aandag. Die ontbyt was smaaklik en vullend.

Thank you for writing a review, we appreciate it. The restaurant is a completely separate business, but we will ask them again to offer smaller and lighter meals; their à la carte menu therefore also has starters...... We are glad you enjoyed our surroundings. Unfortunately, we have had an invasion of moles this year and the extra heat is not exactly good for the lawn. We try to give enough water, but with the trees and the moles it remains a struggle this year. The breakfast consists of two parts: the cold buffet and then the hot meal. We feel good that you were able to wake up full. We look forward to welcoming you again. Kind regards, Margret and the team at Oude Wellington.

Dankie dat jy 'n resensie geskryf het, ons waardeer dit. Die restaurant is 'n heeltemal aparte besigheid, maar ons sal hulle weer vra om tog ook nog kleiner en ligter etes aan te bied; hulle à la carte-menu het daarom ook voorgeregte...... Ons is bly jy/julle het ons omgewing geniet. Ongelukkig het ons hierdie jaar 'n inval van molle en die ekstra hitte is ook nie juis iets vir die grasperk nie. Ons probeer om genoeg water te gee, maar met die bome en die molle bly dit maar 'n stryd hierdie jaar. Die ontbyt bestaan uit twee dele: die koue buffet en dan die warm ete. Ons voel goed daaroor dat julle versadig kon opstaan. Ons sien uit om julle dalk weereens te mag verwelkom. Vriendelike groete, Margret en die span by Oude Wellington.

Very clean and tidy! Service was also very good - the lady who received us was very friendly. Breakfast was also nice and filling.

Baie skoon en netjies! Diens was ook baie goed - die dame wat ons ontvang het was baie vriendelik. Ontbyt was ook lekker en vullend.

Visit was nice. A home feeling. Restaurant and distillery were closed. No more wine is made. Call ahead of time to find out if the new restaurant is already open and in operation. Only VIP rooms have power with load shedding.

Kuier was lekker. 'n Tuis gevoel. Resturant en distillery was toe. Daar word nie meer wyn gemaak nie. Skakel voor die tyd om te hoor of die nuwe resturant al oop en in werking is. Net VIP kamers het krag met load sheding.

Thank you very much Danny for the complete description. We are glad you had a pleasant time with us. Yes our Restaurant is unfortunately temporarily closed, we are looking for a new chef.....We will improve and be able to show the distillery in the future. Wine is only made from our single still resistant block of Chardonnay for some years. Making wine on such a small farm was just no longer economically viable. Our pot-still Dr Schumacher brandy is therefore still available and together with our Gappa also for tasting. During load shedding all lights work but not the power plugs. 3 of the rooms in the main building are connected to the generator. The self-care units have emergency lights and gas is available for cooking. (Only the cottage has no gas). We hope to welcome you again. regards Margaret G Front of House Oude Wellington Estate and Guesthouse

Baie dankie Danny vir die volledige beskrywing. Ons is bly julle het n aangename tyd by ons gehad. Ja ons Restaurant is oneglukkig kortstondig gesluit, ons soek nuwe chef.....Ons sal verbeter en in toekoms die distillery kan wys. Wyn word nog net somige jare van ons enkele nog bestande blok Chardonnay gemaak. Die maak van wyn op so n klein plaas was net nie meer ekonomies vatbaar nie. Ons pot-stil Dr Schumacher brandewyn is daarom nog verder beskikbaar en saam met ons Gappa ook om te proe,. Gedurende load shedding werk alle ligte maar nie die kragproppe nie. 3 van die kamers aan die hoofgebou is aan die generator gekoppel. Die self-sorg eenhede het emergency ligte en vir kos maak is gas beskikbaar. (Net die kothuisie het nie gas nie). Ons hoop om julle weer te mag verwelkom.

Beautiful location, limited facilities. The accommodation is neat, clean and the bed is comfortable. The unit could be better equipped because it is offered as self-catering, but has very limited accessories. Would be nice if provision could be made for load shedding, especially at the price per night.

Pragtige ligging, beperkte fasiliteite. Die verblyf is netjies, skoon en die bed is gemaklik. Die eenheid kan beter toegerus word omdat dit as selfsorg aangebied word, maar baie beperkte toebehore het. Sal gaaf wees as daar voorsiening gemaak kan word vir beurtkrag, veral teen die prys per nag.

Thank you for the time to write a comment. Although our self-catering units are fully equipped there is always space for improvement. Please help to improve by pointing out what cooking equipment would enhance your stay. We now have besides the torch and candles extra good emergency lighting in the self-catering units during load-shedding. We hope to see you again. Kind regards Margret and the team at Oude Wellington

Dankie vir die tyd om 'n opmerking te skryf. Alhoewel ons selfsorg-eenhede ten volle toegerus is, is daar altyd ruimte vir verbetering. Help asseblief om te verbeter deur uit te wys watter kooktoerusting jou verblyf sal verbeter. Ons het nou behalwe die fakkel en kerse ekstra goeie noodbeligting in die selfsorg-eenhede tydens beurtkrag. Ons hoop om jou weer te sien. Vriendelike groete Margret en die span by Oude Wellington

The "old" world charm is charming. Some of the upgrades and color schemes don't match the "old" world charm. Attention can be paid to the overall care/cleanliness of the gardens and buildings.

Die "ou" wêreld se sjarme is bekoorlik. Sekere van die opgraderings en kleurskakemas pas nie by die "ou" wêreld se sjarme nie. Daar kan opgelet word na die algehele versorging/netheid van die tuine en geboue.

Thank you Erla for taking the time to write a review. We are glad you enjoyed at least part of the old world charm. It's always hard not to lose any of that when upgrades become necessary. This time of year, where the rainy season has finally stopped, we try to pay attention to painting buildings and extra care of the large garden. Sometimes there is too much work, but we will try to pay even more attention to keeping everything tidy. Temporarily the owner is not on the farm and then something may be left behind that would have required even more attention. Thank you again for staying with us. regards Margaret G Front of House Oude Wellington Estate and Guesthouse

Dankie Erla dat jy die moeite gedoen het om n resensie te skryf. Ons is bly julle het teen minste n deel van die ou wêreld se sjarme geniet. Dis altyd moeilik om niks van die te verloor wanneer opgraderings noodsaaklik word nie. Hierdie tyd van die jaar, waar uiteindelik die reen seisoen opgehou het, probeer ons om aandag te skenk aan verf van geboue en ekstra versorg van die groot tuin. Soms kom daar te veel werk bymekaaar, maar ons sal probeer om nog meer daarop te let dat alles netjies bly. Tydelik is die eienaar nie op die plaas en dan bly daar dalk iets agter wat tog nog meer aandag sou vereis het. Dankie weereens dat julle by ons gebly het. Groete Margret G Front of House Oude Wellington Estate and Guesthouse

Expected better. Very disappointing. Unit needs attention and needs cleaning.

Het beter verwag. Baie teleurstellend. Eenheid kort aandag en moet skoongemaak word.

Dear Lorianne. Please note that the cottage was cleaned and checked. The cleaning staff has been commended by the grading council for being very thorough and consistent. When the guest is shown the cottage, the cleanliness is checked again. If you are in the area again, please return for a more enjoyable experience with a 1 night free stay. Kind regards, Rolf.

Liewe Lorianne. Neem asseblief kennis dat die kothuis skoongemaak en nagegaan is. Die skoonmaakpersoneel is deur die graderingsraad geprys omdat hulle baie deeglik en konsekwent is. Wanneer die gas die kothuis gewys word, word die netheid weer nagegaan. As jy weer in die area is, keer asseblief terug vir 'n lekkerder ervaring met 'n 1 nag gratis verblyf. Vriendelike groete, Rolf.
