Interesting and different, but inconvenient. Artistic house with antiques, but bathroom is outside and it was cold.

Interessant en anders, maar ongerieflik. Kunstige huis met oudhede, maar badkamer is buite en dit was koud.

Hi Eddie, thank you very much for your feedback! Yes, it was pretty cold for September! I just want to mention that "the Art house" is a Karoo brakdakki type house. It is also described as such. Guests should make sure they are happy with it. The porch is completely sheltered with tendrils and partitioned off, it's 3 meters to the bathroom. It's always cold to get up at night for the toilet! I just want to mention that winter bedding, hot water bags and extra warm blankets were provided during Eddie's stay. Thank you very much!

Hi Eddie, baie dankie vir julle terugvoer! Ja, dit was nogal koud vir September! Ek wil net noem dat "the Art house" ñ Karoo brakdakkie tipe huisie is. Dit word ook so beskryf. Gaste moet seker maak hulle is tevrede daarmee. Die stoep is heel beskut met rankers en afgeskort, dis 3 meter na die badkamer. Dis maar altyd koud om snags op te staan vir die toilet! Ek wil net noem dat winter beddegoed, warmwatersakke en ekstra warm komberse verskaf is tydens Eddie Se verblyf. Baie Dankie!

Lovely, clean accommodation with a very pleasant and helpful hostess. Bitterfontein's only accommodation. Lovely little house with Maretha providing dinners and even a picnic breakfast. We felt so welcome and safe. The house is clean and the surroundings beautiful. We will definitely stay here again if we drive through Bitterfontein, would even break away there for a weekend if it wasn't so far from Pretoria.

Heerlike, skoon verblyf met 'n baie aangename en hulpvaardige gasvrou. Bitterfontein se enigste verblyf. Heerlike huisie met Maretha wat aandetes en selfs 'n piekniek ontbyt verskaf. Ons het so welkom en veilig gevoel. Die huis is skoon en die omgewing pragtig. Ons sal definitief weer hier tuisgaan indien ons deur Bitterfontein ry, sal selfs vir 'n naweek daar wegbreek as dit nie so ver van Pretoria was nie.

Hidden Gem in a dusty town. We loved our time at The Art House, and would definitely stay there again. Host Maretha is a fountain of local knowledge and where to find the best flowers if you are going there in season. We spent 3 nights and enjoyed each night more than the last. Put your first impressions of the town aside and enjoy the spotlessly clean, little, tumble down old cottage. It has all that you need and more. It was great.

Beautiful rustic place to rest and breathe in the peace and tranquillity. After a long day on the road, The Art House offered peace, comfort, delicious food and nostalgia.

Quaint place Quaint house in a secluded and quiet part of town filled with arts and collectibles. Perfect for the whole family. Great place to relax. Thanks for the hospitality Marieta.

Disappointed. The condition of the building is not good, it is full of stuff. The bedding was spotless. The one room and kitchen's ceilings leave much to be desired.

Teleurgesteld. Die kondisie van die gebou is nie goed nie, is oorvol van goeters. Die beddegoed was silwerskoon. Die een kamer en kombuis se plafonne laat veel te wense oor.

Dear Gerrie Botes and group, thank you very much for the honest feedback. I must point out that "the Art house" is a Karoo-style Brakdakkie house that is over 100 years old. It is a cottage full of antiques and art. It is a pity that it was not to your taste. Unfortunately, these houses lose their character if you modernize too much. I am trying to make the necessary improvements, such as our financial recovery after the long drought. I am very particular about hygiene and cleanliness, please note that you do not smoke in the rooms again. Thank you very much.

Beste Gerrie Botes en groep, baie dankie vir die eerlike terugvoer. Ek moet u wys daarop dat "the Art house" is 'n Karoo-styl Brakdakkie huisie van oor die 100 jaar oud. Dit is 'n huisie vol oudhede en kuns. Dit is jammer dat dit nie u smaak geval het nie. Ongelukkig verloor hierdie huisies hulle karakter as 'n mens te veel moderniseer. Ek probeer die nodige verbeteringe aanbring, soos wat ons finansieel herstel na die jarelange droogte. Ek is baie gesteld op higiëne en netheid, neem ag dat u asseblief nie weer in die kamers rook nie. Baie dankie.

Unique experience with the most friendly hostess. Unique experience in a hundred year old room. Hostess went out of her way to accommodate us.

Unieke ondervinding met die vriendelikste gasvrou. Unieke ervaring in 'n honderd jaar oue kamer. Gasvrou het uit haar pad gegaan om ons te akkommodeer.
