It is a peaceful beautiful environment. Had a great time in the Chicken Coop. The decor is also very interesting and nicely done. Had friendly service when we had a problem. Thank you.

Good with potential for improvement. Excelsior is a wedding venue and the accommodation seems to be arranged accordingly - for one night's sleep. Our booked unit was not assigned to us and was empty for 2 of the 3 nights we were here. The layout of the unit that was made available to us is impractical with the entrance door opening into 50% of the kitchen space. The kitchenette is very well equipped but has no space to put anything down such as mugs when you boil the kettle. The most delicious coffee was provided which we thoroughly enjoyed. The shower lacks a door/curtain unless the design is intended for the bathroom floor to be washed with each shower. Fortunately, a mop was provided. A 5 liter water was provided with the words that the borehole water only tasted somewhat brackish. During our stay it was brown water that came out of the taps and the owners had to return to the farm several times to turn on the water pump as it did not automatically turn on after power cuts and it appeared that there was no other person on the farm who could not perform the task in their absence. If the water as we experienced it is normal, future visitors will probably have to provide sufficient clean water themselves. The owners were very helpful and friendly and responded as quickly as they could to requests, but unfortunately things pick up and after a while it snowballs. We enjoyed and appreciated the recommendations of 'things to do' and places to visit by the owner. There are absolutely no safety measures in the unit or from where you turn off the road to the units. Any person can enter there without having to overcome any barrier or safety mechanism. As a result, I don't even want to award one star for safety unless one star means the front door can lock. The accommodation where we stayed right before Excelsior charged a similar rate and offered light years better quality, comfort and safety.

Goed met potensiaal vir verbetering. Excelsior is 'n troue venue en die verblyf blyk dienooreenkomstig ingerig te wees - vir een nag se oorslaap. Ons bespreekte eenheid is nie aan ons toegewys nie en het leeg gestaan vir 2 van die 3 aande wat ons hier tuis was. Die eenheid wat wel aan ons beskikbaar gestel is, se uitleg is onprakties met die ingang deur wat oopmaak in 50% van die kombuis spasie. Die kombuisie is heel goed toegerus maar het geen spasie om enige iets neer te sit soos bekers wanneer jy die ketel kook nie. Die heerlikste koffie is voorsien wat ons terdee geniet het. Die stort kort 'n deur/gordyn tensy as die ontwerp bedoel is dat die badkamer vloer met elke stort gewas moet word. Gelukkig is 'n mop voorsien. 'n 5 liter water is voorsien met die woorde dat die boorgat water net ietwat brak smaak. Tydens ons verblyf was dit bruin water wat uit die krane uitgekom het en moes die eienaars telkemale terugkeer na die plaas om die waterpomp te kom aanskakel aangesien dit nie outomaties aangegaan het na kragonderbrekings nie en dit geblyk het dat daar geen ander persoon op die plaas was wat in hulle afwesigheid die taak kon verrig nie. Indien die water soos ons dit beleef het normaal is, sal toekomstige besoekers waarskynlik voldoende skoon water self moet voorsien. Die eienaars was baie behulpsaam en het vriendelik en so vinnig as wat hulle kon gereageer op versoeke, maar ongelukkig tel dinge op en na 'n ruk sneeubal dit. Ons het die aanbevelings van 'doen-dinge' en besoekplekke deur die eienares geniet en waardeer. Daar is absoluut geen veiligheidsmaatreëls in die eenheid of van waar jy by die pad afdraai tot by die eenhede nie. Enige persoon kan daar inkom sonder om enige versperring of veiligheidsmeganisme te moet oorkom. Gevolglik wil ek nie eers een ster vir veiligheid toeken nie behalwe as een ster beteken dat die voordeur kan toesluit. Die akkommodasie waar ons tuisgegaan het direk voor Excelsior het 'n soortgelyke tarief gehef en bied ligjare beter kwaliteit, gerief en veiligheid.
