Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
We are sorry you were unimpressed with Millgate Cottage. However, I feel the need to respond to your review. It is winter here, and we have leaves falling off trees, which we have plenty of, frost-scald plants and, generally, a lack of rainfall does tend to see a lot die off. We do not waste water trying to keep lawns green and tend to leave the fallen leaves to become mulch to maintain natural regrowth and fertilisation. It may seem that this is what you are referring to with “verwaarloos en toegegroeiwe”. The mismatched crockery is intentional, as I like to maintain a Bohemian and cosy feel for my accommodation. Many of our guests love the homely touch. The dirty glass, we think, was perhaps in the unprepared bigger room that you requested on arrival at no extra cost. If you had brought it to our attention, we would have replaced it immediately, as the place was not prepared for you. Yes, the heaters work.

Eenheid is swak toegerus. Muurverwarmers nie voldoende nie. Matrasse is uitgeleef en eenheid was nie skoon nie.
Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
We apologise if you found the cottage below par, the Midlands is cold this time of year, the wall panel heaters do cope with this and there are always extra blankets stored in the bedroom cupboards. The kitchen has full stove/oven, microwave, kettle, toaster and full refrigerator, crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. Any suggestions on what is missing would be appreciated.

Het ongelukkig nie aan die verwagtinge voldoen nie.
Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
I must apologise to Charles for two of the tiny hooks on the bathroom curtains coming undone. I had pneumonia so did not do my normal check of the unit before he arrived. Nevertheless, the curtains open and close as they should.
This is the first complaint I have received about the bed, but I will look into it.
In this lovely setting, few guests bother with a TV, but I will consider increasing the rate in order to buy a larger one.

Mooi binne, buite nie.
Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
Sorry this guest did not like the look of the outside of the suites, despite the lovely flowers doing so well there, but as after 15 years of running Millgate Cottage, this is the first such complaint, no action will be taken. I suggest that next time, they pay a little extra and take one of the cottages.

Teleurstellend.
Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
The KZN Midlands is known for its cold weather and the one night that Mr. Johan La Grange stayed with perhaps the coldest this year. I supply my guests with the same bedding that I use for myself which I hitherto thought sufficient.
We would certainly have switched the heaters on an hour or so before his arrival if, like regular guests Mr. La Grange had phoned ahead with his current whereabouts. To keep heaters running in empty units is financially impossible at the kind of low rates we charge.
I must apologise for the lack of a mattress cover and have spoken harshly to the staff member who did not replace it after it was washed.
Durdle Door is our only semi-self catering unit in that it does not have a proper kitchen and therefore a kitchen sink this is clearly stated in our literature. As it is our prettiest unit, is kitchen-less and has a double bed, we refer to it as out Honeymoon suite.

Ons het onwelkom gevoel.

I do not understand Afrikaanse but it seems that this guest does not understand English and so I must forgive her for not being able to read the signs outside and within reception asking visitors to ring the bell on the counter so that I may attend to them and show them to their room.
I have no clue who the bad tempered “manager” was; as well as owner, I am the manager and I am not a man. Perhaps she was speaking to another guest, hence his bad temper. While unidentified I can only assume this is the couple who, when complaining about the lack of shower cubical, were offered alternative accommodation but decided to stay where they were perhaps because it has a double be; it is our honeymoon suite. This suit does not have a shower cubical but does have a shower attachment in the bath, which requires the user to hold it allowing them to spray whichever part of the body they choose.
Millgate Cottage offers self-catering, self-service accommodation and describes it as such in all of our literature. This again indicated that the guest cannot understand English. The coffee, tea, milk etc upon arrive is a welcoming gesture on our part, and not covered by the self-catering rate. Although we are a self-service establishment for longer-staying guests, we offer to service rooms every three days, these guests only stayed two days.

Baie baie sleg.
Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
Dear Mr. Greyvensteyn
You did not receive a key on your first night as the key was on the inside of the front door made ready for you to lock it. Attempting to book in seven-and-a-half late (12.30), knowing that we are not a hotel with 24-hour service, did you really expect someone to greet you? My son waited up for you, until 10.30 pm when he realised that you were deceiving him with regard to your impending arrival. You are also dishonest with regard to the wash basin which it sparkles with cleanliness and not a hairline crack in sight.

Not what was advertised.
Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
The guest chose to stay in Durdle Door, the only unit that does not have its own kitchen and is deliberately advertised in this way. However it does have a fridge, microwave and kettle. It is regarded as our honeymoon suite as it is the only smaller unit with a double bed which I assume is why she chose this suite.

While the guest had booked into Durdle Door, I offered this guest Kimmeridge as the couple were booked for three days. I did this as a recent TravelGround guests complained of a lack of a kitchen, although it is pointed out in our dialogue that Durdle Door is only semi-self-catering. He decided on Kimmeridge, which is a much bigger unit with two rooms, kitchenette and full bathroom, but is not part of the main house. Kimmeridge and Lulworth underwent substantial repair 18 months ago, and a new roof added. Rather than big cracks, there are hairline cracks that found in most buildings. I am unaware of any rust, anywhere. With the exception of two, a snow scene and an aerial shot, the photographs that appear on our site were taken within the last six months.

Millgate Cottage se terugvoer
Dear Charmaine
I am sorry that you feel aggrieved that I did not refund money to you are the end of your stay when you claimed that the number of people staying was less than the number you originally booked for which was 9 adults and 4 children. The rate for this many people for three days is R11880. However as one couple was only able to stay one night instead of three, the amount was adjusted downwards to R10800.
The booking was for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day a period when we turned away dozens of would-be guests. While your group was booked into the Farmhouse, worried that this many only had use of two bathrooms, I turned down last-minute booking for Cottage I, (valued at R2400) and allocated the cottage to your group in order to provide the party with an extra bathroom.
It was me who suggested you contact Travel Ground when I refused your demand for a refund hence this communication.
Kind regards Jean Temkin
