Grateful for our environment's beautiful places to spend the weekend. Had a wonderful stay. Room was nice and clean and was cleaned again next day. Everything you need in the room. Staff friendly and very considerate towards our 2 busy boys. Breakfast was also delicious.

Dankbaar vir ons omgewing se pragtige plekke om te kan naweek hou. Heerlik gebly. Kamer was mooi en skoon en is volgende dag weer skoongemaak. Alles wat mens nodig het in die kamer. Personeel vriendelik en baie bedagsaam teenoor ons 2 besige seuntjies. Ontbyt was ook heerlik.

Breakfast was great. Location was good. They were efficient and professional. Breakfast was fresh and good. They were willing to advise on activities that we could do. However, they need to get a new fridge. It's not cold enough. As much as the images were what we got, I just wish their linen was whiter. We found hairs in the sheets.

Dear Ntokozo, I hope you are well. I am so glad you did enjoy your breakfast. The fridge will not keep up with all the guests and also with all the load-shedding we do have. The fridge temperature is low. We will assist with the matter. Thank you for your review. Kind regards, Simone'

Beste Ntokozo, Ek hoop dit gaan goed met jou. Ek is so bly jy het jou ontbyt geniet. Die yskas sal nie tred hou met al die gaste nie en ook met al die beurtkrag wat ons wel het. Die yskas se temperatuur is laag. Ons sal help met die saak. Dankie vir jou resensie. Vriendelike groete, Simone'

Excellent breakfast. Friendly and welcoming staff. The Loerie room was neat but very congested for a family of 4. Breakfast was well catered for and staff are friendly and welcoming.

A very pleasant experience indeed. Might have to seriously consider putting a small bar fridge in the family rooms. The only problem is that there is no water at the time of load shedding, which means that toilets cannot flush.

Werklik 'n baie aangename ondervinding. Moet dalk ernstig oorweeg om 'n klein kroeg yskas in die familiekamers te sit. Die enigste probleem is dat daar nie water is ten tye van load shedding nie, wat beteken dat toilette nie kan spoel nie.

Nice place, close to everything. You simply walk everywhere or rent a ride in town and go explore the forest.

Lekker plek die, naby alles. Jy loop sommer oral of huur 'n ryding in die dorp en gaan verken die bos.

Had a nice stay. Problems with other guests who made noise until 2am the next morning.

Het lekker gebly. Probleme met ander gaste wat tot 02:00 uur geraas het die volgende oggend.

Good Day, Thank you for your lovely over all rate. We sincerely apologize for the excessive noise other guests have caused. We will try to implement stricter rules regarding noise levels after certain hours. Regards

Goeie dag, Dankie vir jou lieflike algehele prys. Ons vra opreg om verskoning vir die oormatige geraas wat ander gaste veroorsaak het. Ons sal na sekere ure probeer om strenger reëls rakende geraasvlakke te implementeer. Groete

It is closer to a "motel" or "glorified backpackers" than a "lodge". Friendly reception and helpful people. Centrally located. Nice mountain in the background, but no room overlooks it. Cute playroom for the kids. Their idea of a vegetarian breakfast is scrambled eggs and mushrooms, no other options. The cat that lives there is cute for animal lovers and children, but he just jumps on the tables and chairs while you eat; not cute and not at all good for people with allergies. The "Honeybadger" room where we stayed has no privacy, the door is made of glass without a curtain so everyone looks into one's room all the time and sharp lights shine in there at night. The generator is apparently not used in the evening, because apparently no one is there to turn it off - no other aids such as flashlights or candles are provided and the water does not work either. Not during load shedding, so you're on your own. With the above in mind, it is actually quite expensive.

Die is nader aan 'n "motel" of "glorified backpackers" as 'n "Lodge". Vriendelike ontvangs en behulpsame mense. Sentraal geleë. Mooi berg in die agtergrond, maar geen kamer kyk daarop uit nie. Oulike speelkamer vir die kinders. Hulle idee van 'n vegetariese ontbyt is roereier en sampioene, geen ander opsies nie. Die kat wat daar bly is nou wel oulik vir diereliefhebbers en kinders, maar hy spring sommer op die tafels en stoele terwyl mens eet; nie oulik nie en glad nie goed vir mense met allergiëe nie. Die "Honeybadger" kamer waar ons gebly het, het geen privaatheid nie, die deur is van glas sonder 'n gordyn so almal kyk heeltyd in mens se kamer in en skerp ligte skyn snags daar in. Die kragopwekker word glo nie gebruik in die aand nie, want niemand is glo daar om dit af te sit nie - geen ander hulpmiddels soos flitse of kerse word verskaf nie en die water werk ook nie. Gedurende beurtkrag nie, so jy is op jou eie. Met bogenoemde in gedagte is dit eintlik nogal duur.

Good afternoon, I hope you are well. Thank you very much for the feedback. We are glad we could have been of help to you. In connection with the room that looks on the mountain was already filled with complaints when Mr. Book. We have a vegetarian option that clients can order, sorry if that was not clearly stated for you sir. Sometimes Andy gets very excited about all the attention and love and sometimes forgets he is not allowed inside with breakfast. We will look into the gentleman's other complaints and work on them. It's always good to receive feedback. This makes us successful for the future. Best regards, Simone'

Goeiemiddag, ek hoop dit gaan goed. Baie dankie vir die terugvoering. Ons is bly ons kon van behulp gewees het vir meneer. Inverband met die kamer wat op die berg kyk was reeds kla gevul toe meneer boek. Ons het n vegetariese opsie wat kliente kan bestel jammer as dit nie duidelik gestel was vir meneer nie. Soms raak Andy baie opgewonde oor al die aandag en liefde en vergeet soms hy mag nie binne met ontbyt nie. Ons sal in kyk in meneer se ander klagtes en daarop werk. Dis altyd goed om trugvoering te ontvang. Dit maak ons suksesvol vir die toekoms voorentoe. Vriendelike groete, Simone'
