Exquisitely beautiful, calming, exciting, and charming. The place guides you into a different era. The place is glamoured with gorgeous antique tea sets, princess Anne furniture and porcelain dolls. The paintings on the walls make you feel like a member of the royal household. We never wanted to leave. It's a place of exquisite beauty and homeliness.

It was average, but we were disappointed, because the term "Boutique Guest House" set the expectation very high. The cost should have included breakfast. One morning my husband asked the hostess for an omelette and she said that the breakfast was an English breakfast which did not include omelettes (since an omelette is of French origin). We felt that this was unnecessary and that the kitchen could provide an omelette. In general the house was very full and the fact that our bathroom did not have a shower was a big minus. There is another bathroom (which has a shower) offered to us, but to get there, one has to walk through the entire guest house (including a living room) to take a shower. Needless to say, my husband didn't take advantage of it.

Dit was gemiddeld, maar ons was teleurgesteld, omdat die term "Boutique Guest House" die verwagting baie hoog gestel het. Teen die koste behoort ontbyt ingesluit te gewees het. My man het een oggend die gasvrou gevra vir 'n omelet en sy het gesê dat die ontbyt 'n Engelse ontbyt is wat nie omelette insluit nie (aangesien 'n omelet van Franse herkoms is). Ons het gevoel dat dit onnodig was en dat die kombuis 'n omelet kon voorsien. Oor die algemeen was die huis baie vol en die feit dat ons badkamer nie 'n stort gehad het nie, was 'n groot minus. Daar is wel 'n ander badkamer (wat 'n stort het) vir ons aangebied, maar om daar te kom, moet mens deur die hele gastehuis (insluitend 'n sitkamer) stap om te gaan stort. Nodeloos om te sê, my man het nie daarvan gebruik gemaak nie.

Thank you very much for the feedback about your stay at The Summer Place. If you make a reservation at any guest house, please be specific with your requirements. If it is possible, we will then meet your requirements from our side. Nevertheless, it was very nice and pleasant for us to be able to host you. regards

Baie dankie vir die terugvoering na julle verblyf by The Summer Place. Indien u 'n bespreeking maak by enige gastehuis, moet u asb spesifiek wees met u vereistes. As dit moontlik is sal ons dan van ons kant aan u vereistes voorsien. Nogtans was dit vir ons baie lekker en aangenaam om u te kon huisves. Groete

Very disapointing. Very bad experience. I will not recommend The Summer Place to anyone and will never ever stay over there again. R120.00 for breakfast which was two eggs, two pieces of bacon and a small sausage, I think that's ridiculous.

Baie teleurstellend. Baie slegte ervaring. Sal The Summer Place nooit aan enigiemand aanbeveel nie en sal nooit ooit weer hier bly nie. R120 ontbyt met net 2 eiers, 2 stukkies spek, en 'n worsie, ek dink dis verregaande.

High quality fruit juice, homemade jams, butter, variety of cheeses,croissants and special breads (toast) are on the table available. From the kitchen you may order, free range eggs, sausages, fish, quiches,tomatoes and mushrooms, all prepared fresh and served in the designers way, nice and hot A variety of teas, plunge coffee, decaffained and caffained instant coffee are also available from the beverages station. All this is served at well layed tables with silver crystal and fresh flowers to make your breakfast special. So please make sure that when you book to inform the Guesthouse with your special needs like banting, vegetarian and gluten free breakfast. As we at The Summer place take pride of our breakfasts and try to satisfy our guests needs at all times.

Goeie dag Johan, So jammer om te hoor van jou slegte ervaring by Summer Place. Stel asseblief wanneer jy bespreek dat jy banting en dat jy meer benodig as wat normaalweg aangebied word. Soos geadverteer bied ons 'n volledige Engelse ontbyt. Alhoewel ons meer bied. Ons ontbyt bestaan uit 'n bord van 5 verskillende vars vrugte wat pragtig aangebied word met neute en jogurt. Hawer en graan bedien met heuning, droë vrugte en neute volg die vrugtebord indien nodig. Hoë kwaliteit vrugtesap, tuisgemaakte konfyte, botter, verskeidenheid kase, croissants en spesiale brode (roosterbrood) is op die tafel beskikbaar. Uit die kombuis kan jy vryloop eiers, wors, vis, quiches, tamaties en sampioene bestel, alles vars voorberei en op die ontwerpers manier bedien, lekker warm 'n Verskeidenheid tee, duikkoffie, kafeïenvrye en kafeïenvrye kitskoffie is ook by die drankstasie beskikbaar. Dit alles word bedien by goed gedekte tafels met silwer kristal en vars blomme om jou ontbyt spesiaal te maak. Maak dus asseblief seker dat wanneer jy bespreek om die Gastehuis in te lig oor jou spesiale behoeftes soos banting, vegetariese en glutenvrye ontbyt. Soos ons by The Summer place trots is op ons ontbyte en te alle tye probeer om ons gaste se behoeftes te bevredig.

Too expensive for what we got. After a long trip I had to wait 15 minutes in front of the gate opened before some opened up. Only one towel in bathroom (we were two people). No hair dryer for my wife. No bath, only a shower. Just feel that it's too expensive for what we got. Looked forward to staying here (given the use of the word "Boutique" in the name, the price per night, and the fact that we had a long trip from the Cape). Unfortunately disappointed and will not stay here again.

Te duur vir dit wat ons gekry het. Na 'n lang reis moes ek 15 min wag voor die hek voor iemand oopgemaak het. Slegs een handdoek in badkamer gekry (ons was twee persone). Geen haardroër vir my vrou gewees nie. Geen bad nie en slegs 'n stort. Voel net dat dit heeltemal te duur is vir dit wat ons gekry het. Uitgesien om daar te oornag (gegewe die naam wat die woord "Boutique" insluit en die prys per nag en na 'n lang reis van die Kaap af). Ongelukkig teleurgesteld en sal nie weer daar oorbly nie.

Ongelooflik. Ons het uitstekende diens ontvang. Ons het so tuis gevoel en sal enige tyd weer terugkom. Julle sien ons beslis weer.

Very pleasant, comfortable and peaceful stay. The hostess must always be there for her guests through good and bad times. She should not shy away and leave her staff to deal with the problem. Furthermore, it was very nice to be able to stay there.

Baie aangenaam, gerieflik en rustige verblyf. Die gasvrou moet tem alle tye deur goeie en slegte tye daar vir haar gaste. Sy moet nie wegskram en haar personeel los om die probleem te hanteer nie. Verder was dit baie lekker om daar te kon bly.

Peaceful, clean and tidy room, fast WiFi. TV programmes have room for improvement.

Rustige, skoon en netjiese kamer met baie vinnige WiFi. TV-programme kan verbeter.

The stay was very nice and the owner is a very pleasant person and hospitable. Had a nice stay and will stay there again in the future when my family and I are in Bloemfontein. Really very pleasant.

Die verblyf was baie lekker en die eienaar is 'n baie aangename persoon en gasvry. Het lekker gebly en sal weer daar oorbly in die toekoms wanneer ek en gesin in Bloemfontein is. Regtig baie aangenaam.
