Exceeded all our expectations.
Very nice. We just struggled with the hot water. The gas bottle had been replaced with a full one, but the water still got cold every now and then. So, while taking a shower, we had to get out first, open the sink faucet first, then open the shower faucet and wait for the water to warm up. Furthermore, we had a very nice stay. Als very nice and neat and clean.

The cottage has pretty much everything you need. A grater and egg spatula may be provided in the kitchen. We had a great time, only the weather didn't cooperate, so an indoor barbecue area would have been nice.

Way over charged en onder standard vir R500 n nag in my opinion.
Unfortunately not. Place as well as bedding stank of musty a. g. v the water damage in the walls, the geyser is either boiling hot or freezing cold so couldn't use shower. In my opinion it is not worth R500 a night.

Very peaceful evening away.
The place is very cutely furnished and everything you need is there. The view is beautiful and it's dead quiet there. The only thing I would ask the owner is to look at the showers. The regulation of the temperature is a bit difficult so whether you burn terribly or freeze. Furthermore, I am very satisfied with the place. Will definitely stay there again.

We had a nice stay. Everything was completely adequate. The only point I will address is the gas geyser. There is a note indicating that they are aware of the problem, but I would suggest that they address the problem themselves as soon as possible. Nevertheless, we had a very nice stay and I would be able to recommend it to other travelers.

Disappointing.
The location is excellent. Beautiful farm setting. Lovely view. However, what was disappointing is the hot water. First you burn and then it gets cold even before you have finished applying soap. Then geyser doesn't want to turn on again etc. And who still uses shower curtains. For the price you have to pay you expect better. Price exorbitantly high for what you get.

Relaxing and beautiful environment.
Some upgrades definitely have to be made. The ceiling in the bedroom has mould on it; the bathroom door grazes the floor and is difficult to close; the basin in the bathroom is too small with the mirror not directly above it which makes shaving quite difficult. Towels are worn and the shower curtain irritating. TV channels are pathetic and unclear. The mirror in the bedroom is too high to sit before to dry your hair. No shelves in the wardrobe. Other than that, clean and neat.

Beautiful getaway from the city!
We were 4 people who stayed at Aanhouwen Cottages for the weekend. The farm is very beautiful and peaceful. The houses are nice and big with braai facilities etc. We were just a little disappointed with the kitchen's wiring, our power tripped when we wanted to turn on the kettle and the stove. Luckily there was also a spare gas duster (so it might happen often, but we weren't warned). Other than that, everything was great, one big adventure. I will definitely go back again, and maybe just barbecue every night.

True silence.
It was a lovely break from the city. Woke up to a view of the mountains.

Value for money, will come back to the place.
Elgin/Grabouw is not normally known as a wine destination, but this visit proved that people can safely consider it as such - very interesting wines with unique tastes and characteristics. One point of criticism is that many places to eat are open infrequently and close very early in the afternoon, eating out at night is very difficult.

Bad.
There was old pasta in the fridge. And rubbish everywhere on the farm, except right in front of the houses.

I apologise sincerely for the pasta that was left in the fridge. It is unacceptable and will not happen again here at Aanhouwen. This is a working farm and I am taken aback to your referral as "rommel". It would have been appreciated if you had called me during your stay of two nights and addressed your unhappiness, we could have settled the matter face to face. I would have refunded your money without any hesitation as I pride myself with open and honest communication. We certainly do not want any of our guests to leave the farm more stressed than when they arrived.

Bespreking se reëlings goed genoeg, maar daar was niemand om ons te ontvang nie.

Booking's arrangements good enough, but there was no one to receive us.
There is a big problem with water in shower/sink, it changes from hot to cold and one cannot regulate the temperature. There were only 2 small milkshakes in the fridge, I would think they could put at least 4 milkshakes. Then I would redo the window's maintenance with Nu-Glaze if I washed them, it just creates a better impression. Dogs were friendly and nice to see, and the ponds for fishing were great, maybe they could just use a tractor to clear the banks of tall bushes and weeds.

Thank you for your input.
It would have been greatly appreciated if you would have contacted us upon arrival. Your booking was done at a very late hour upon the day of arrival. Your key was left in the door for your convenience. My husband did walk down to the cottage at 21.30hrs to see if everything was in order but all was dark and quiet. Unfortunately, the water pressure on a farm varies and at times and I must admit there are a few irritations in that respect.
Our animals are as friendly as their owners.
Regarding the un-kept dam walls, we have many bird species on the farm and there are many nests in the shrubbery alongside the dams. To mow there in breading season would be a great sin and that just for us to get to the water easier.
I do apologise that I was not there to meet you, as you noticed, we only have five cottages and unfortunately I was not informed to the time of your arrival.
Regards
