Very good and friendly service. Very good and friendly service. The room was very cold, but there were enough heaters, warm blankets, and an electric blanket on the bed.

Baie goeie en vriendelike diens. Baie goeie en vriendelike diens. Die kamer was baie koud, maar daar was genoeg verwarmers, warm komberse, en 'n elektriese kombers op die bed.

Neat and the staff are very friendly. Had dinner at the golf club just around the corner. Very good service and value.

Netjies en die staf is baie vriendelik. Het by die gholfklub net om die hoek gaan eet. Baie goeie diens en waarde.

Halfway overnight from Sodwana. Riverhouse is a gem in Estcourt.

Halfpad oornag vanaf Sodwana. Riverhouse is 'n juweel in Estcourt.

Very pleasant. KT was great. Rooms great food excellent. Just a pity about the drain smell which wafted in. But if that can be fixed, 200%.

Hi Gretchen, thank you for your review. Just to let you know this is a municipal problem and has been since sorted. Kind Regards, Karin.

Hallo Gretchen, dankie vir jou resensie. Net om jou te laat weet dit is 'n munisipale probleem en is sedertdien gesorteer. Vriendelike groete, Karin.

Would not recommend. Booked 2 rooms with en-suite and only one had en-suite. Setting and location are good, but general tidiness and cleanliness lacks. Same renovations works underway without prior notification.

Hi Jandre, I really feel that this review was unfair. Firstly, we were indeed busy with renovations. It was the veranda that was being renovated and I didn't think it would inconvenience guests too severely. Your original booking was for Room 5 which was the garden annex and Room 3 which is in the main house. Seeing as these rooms are quite far apart and they were a family, I felt it would be more suitable to move you from the smaller garden annex to the room in the main house which is adjacent to the room that you had booked. Despite it being a more expensive room with a king-size bed and its own shower, I moved you at no extra costs as I desired to keep you satisfied and comfortable. Both rooms have their own showers and no one shares a bathroom. The only slight issue is that Room 2's shower is down a small passage. I didn't believe this would be a concern as you are family. You gave me a low score on cleanliness which I find odd as my rooms are very tidy and most people score me highly on that. You also gave a low score on service. I believe this is unfair as I know that my staff go out of their way to welcome guests and make them feel at home.

Hallo Jandre, Ek voel regtig dat hierdie resensie onregverdig was. Eerstens was ons inderdaad besig met opknappingswerk. Dit was die stoep wat opgeknap word en ek het nie gedink dit sou gaste te erg benadeel nie. Jou oorspronklike bespreking was vir Kamer 5 wat die tuinaanhangsel was en Kamer 3 wat in die hoofhuis is. Aangesien hierdie kamers redelik ver van mekaar is en hulle 'n gesin is, het ek gevoel dit sou meer geskik wees om jou van die kleiner tuinaanhangsel na die kamer in die hoofhuis te skuif wat aangrensend is aan die kamer wat jy bespreek het. Ten spyte daarvan dat dit 'n duurder kamer is met 'n koninggrootte-bed en sy eie stort, het ek jou sonder ekstra koste verskuif omdat ek begeer het om jou tevrede en gemaklik te hou. Albei kamers het hul eie storte en niemand deel 'n badkamer nie. Die enigste effense probleem is dat Kamer 2 se stort in 'n klein gang af is. Ek het nie geglo dit sou 'n bekommernis wees nie aangesien julle familie is. Jy het vir my 'n lae telling oor netheid gegee wat ek vreemd vind aangesien my kamers baie netjies is en die meeste mense my hoog daarop aanteken. Jy het ook 'n lae telling op diens gegee. Ek glo dit is onregverdig aangesien ek weet dat my personeel uit hul pad gaan om gaste te verwelkom en hulle tuis te laat voel.
