Look into the past. Fantastic place. The house is so nicely done up and anything you think you might need is available. Amenities were well laid out. We had a great time there. Would definitely like to stay longer and explore the area a bit. Our host also recommended seeing the Hennie Steyn bridge at sunset! What an experience! Thank you very much.

Kykie in die verlede. Fantastiese plek. Die huis is so mooi reggemaak en enigiets wat jy dink jy nodig mag hê is beskikbaar. Geriewe was goed uitgelê. Ons het baie lekker daar gekuier. Sal vir seker langer wou bly en die omgewing bietjie verken. Ons gasheer het ook aanbeveel om die Hennie Steyn brug met sononder te gaan besigtig! Wat 'n ervaring! Baie dankie.

Outstanding. My 2nd time at Wild Olive Cottage and a nice experience every time. Can definitely recommend for an overnight stop or a few days to explore town and surroundings.

Uitstekend. My 2de keer by Wild Olive Cottage en elke keer 'n lekker ervaring. Kan beslis aanbeveel vir 'n oornagstop of 'n paar dae om dorp en omgewing te verken.

Always a pleasure to welcome return guests to Bethulie. It was lovely to that Beyers was able to enjoy our space and travel and explore the area around Bethulie. Looking forward to his next road trip!

Altyd 'n plesier om terugkerende gaste by Bethulie te verwelkom. Dit was heerlik dat Beyers ons ruimte kon geniet en die omgewing rondom Bethulie kon verken. Sien uit na sy volgende road trip!

A beautiful, interesting and comfortable cottage. A beautifully restored, interesting and delightful old cottage. Very well equipped, clean and with a modern bathroom added on (two rooms have their own “en suite” washbasin and toilet). The cottage has a nice little stoep with a Weber braai (came in useful during a rainstorm), and a lovely garden with an outdoor braai. A minor issue: although there is a modern flat-screen TV, there was no TV signal (might have been a temporary problem due to the weather); however, there is a DVD player with quite a nice selection of DVD movies to choose from. A suggestion to Tim Zunckel, the owner: the email with instructions to access the cottage should preferably be sent a couple of days prior to the arrival date, as one usually does not read email while traveling to the place of accommodation.

A very full cottage filled with lots of décor. Host was good. Although didn't meet in person. House had heaters and heated blankets which were nice. We were asked to wash up after ourselves, which was a first. The cleaning fee was for linen only apparently. Though, surely one cleans the house before new guests? Lots of dust, but understandable due to the number of trinkets. Not a place for a family with kids. There was a full bone china tea set on the coffee table. Great if you're 80, but not with a family. The decor can be pared down a lot and decor can consider a traveler more appropriately.

Hi Janine Glad you were warm during your stay, thanks again for booking with us! As we don't live in town on a permanent basis, we've tried to make the check-in process as seamless as possible when we are not around to meet travellers. All our units have dishwashers and we ask our guests to load their dishes, this helps us save some time in the busy season, and helps get the cottage ready for the next travellers. The dust is certainly an issue and that is good feedback to our team that assists us in ensuring the cottage is well kept and cleaned. Your constructive feedback is greatly appreciated. Tim

Hallo Janine Bly jy was warm tydens jou verblyf, weereens dankie dat jy by ons bespreek het! Aangesien ons nie permanent in die dorp woon nie, het ons probeer om die inklokproses so naatloos moontlik te maak wanneer ons nie daar is om reisigers te ontmoet nie. Al ons eenhede het skottelgoedwassers en ons vra ons gaste om hul skottelgoed te laai, dit help ons om tyd te bespaar in die besige seisoen, en help om die kothuis gereed te kry vir die volgende reisigers. Die stof is beslis 'n probleem en dit is goeie terugvoer aan ons span wat ons help om te verseker dat die kothuis goed onderhou en skoongemaak word. Jou konstruktiewe terugvoer word opreg waardeer.

Incredibly beautiful guest house - it was an incredibly fun evening! One of the most beautiful guesthouses we have ever slept in.

Ongelooflike mooi gastehuis - dit was 'n ongelooflike lekker aand! Een van die mooiste gastehuise waarin ons al ooit geslaap het.

Most comfortable stay in Bethulie. Wild Olive Cottage is one of the most comfortable places to stay in Bethulie and very well equipped. The owner is friendly and helpful and has paid attention to the smallest detail. We can recommend the accommodation at any time.

Gerieflikste verblyf in Bethulie. Wild Olive Cottage is een van die gerieflikste blyplekke in Bethulie en baie goed toegerus. Die eienaar is vriendelik en behulpsaam en het aan die kleinste detail aandag gegee. Ons kan die akkommodasie enige tyd aanbeveel.

Beautiful gem. What a beautiful place. Nice clean, tidy, and value for money! The detail and love that goes into the place makes it that much more special. Will stay longer next time.

Pragtige juweel. Wat ‘n pragtige plek. Mooi skoon, netjies, en waarde vir geld! Die detail en liefde wat in die plek ingaan maak dit soveel meer spesiaal. Sal volgende keer langer bly.

Overnight on the way back from the Cape. Wild Olive is a beautiful cottage. Very well furnished. Only downside was that there were an awful lot of mosquitoes and even with the mosquito repellant cream I struggled. Would suggest mosquito plugs.

Oorslaap op pad terug van die Kaap. Wild Olive is 'n pragtige cottage. Baie goed ingerig. Enigste nadeel was dat daar vreeslik baie muskiete was en selfs met die muskietweerder room gesukkel het. Sal muskiet plugs voorstel.

Thanks for the feedback Ilsje, we have included some mosquito plugs in the house along with creams and spray!

Dankie vir die terugvoer Ilsje, ons het 'n paar muskietproppe in die huis ingesluit saam met room en sproei!
