Exceptional!
We tried staying at the Dam huisie before but our travel plans changed and we had to cancel. It was with pure fluke that we were able to book again and wow, wow, wow! This place is absolutely exceptional. The house is very tastefully decorated and the mattress was very comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked with pretty much anything you possibly could need for an overnight. The kol kol was such a wonderful addition, especially in the afternoon when the wind picks up. (The wind wound down later.) Our Lab puppy thoroughly enjoyed himself in and out of the house and the fenced garden. This space and its surroundings are so peaceful. This will be our stopover between Oudtshoorn and Cape Town in the future. (Also just to mention, parking is behind a gated fence so the car was easily accessible and safe).
Excellent dog-friendly self-catering accommodation with hot tub.
We stayed at the Dam Huisie for 2 nights. The hostess was friendly and sent me all the necessary information on WhatsApp, self-check-in and check-out was very convenient. The unit was very nice and clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. There was milk and a bottle of cold water in the fridge as well as coffee and tea, we didn't use any of this, we always take our own. There was hand soap at the sink in the bathroom and dish soap to wash the dishes. Take your own soap and cream for showering as well as sufficient drinking water. The unit was fenced, it is an excellent dog-friendly environment, our puppies enjoyed themselves just as much. The hot tub was a nice treat, the water was sparkling clean as well as the tub. Thank you very much for turning on the hot tub for us ahead of time. There is a fee of R100 and you have a choice of whether to use it or not. This helped us a lot, and the water was already hot when we got there at 14h00. Wood for the hot tub was available for purchase at R30 which was very reasonable, as the tub uses quite a lot of wood to stay warm. We enjoyed our stay very much, and would definitely recommend Die Dam Huisie as excellent accommodation. See you again soon, thank you for the nice stay and friendly service.
Uitstekende hondevriendelike selfsorg akkommodasie met warmbad.
Ons het vir 2 nagte by die Dam Huisie gebly. Gasvrou was vriendelik en het al die nodige inligting op WhatsApp vir my aangestuur, self inklok en uitklok was baie gerieflik. Die eenheid was baie mooi skoon en het alles in wat vir jou 'n gerieflike verblyf vir seker. Daar was melk en 'n bottel koue water in die yskas sowel as koffie en tee, ons het niks hiervan gebruik nie, ons neem altyd ons eie. Daar was handseep by die wasbak in die badkamer en skottelgoedseep om die skottelgoed te was. Neem jou eie seep en room vir stort asook genoegsame drinkwater saam. Die eenheid was omhein, dit is 'n uitstekende hondevriendelike omgewing, ons hondjies het hulle self net so baie geniet. Die warmbad was 'n lekker bederf, die water was silwer skoon asook die bad. Baie dankie, dat julle die warmbad vir ons aangesit het voor die tyd. Daar is 'n fooi van R100 en jy het 'n keuse om daarvan gebruik te maak of nie. Dit het vir ons baie gehelp, en die water was al reeds warm toe ons daar kom 14h00. Hout vir die warmbad was te koop teen R30 wat baie billik was, aangesien die bad nogal baie hout gebruik om warm te bly. Ons het ons verblyf baie geniet, en sal definitief Die Dam Huisie aanbeveel as uitstekende verblyf. Julle sien ons binnekort weer, dankie vir die lekker verblyf en vriendelike diens.

Stylish, relaxing, beautiful, perfect for the soul.
It is perfect for a couple that wants to disconnect from the world and spend some quality time together. Plus, we could bring our dog without stress about the surroundings.

Ultimate couples reconnect by disconnecting from the busy, daily life routine.
This was an ideal getaway for a couple who wants to switch off and break away from a busy hustle. The space is private and quiet with beautiful views. The hot tub looking out on the dam and the hammock overlooking the dam and sheep passing by on the farm - absolute farmlife bliss.

Cosy house with peaceful view over the dam.
My husband and I had a 2-night visit in the Dam Huisie. Friendly hosts that go the extra mile for you. Hosts supply wood at R30 per bag for braai or the wood-burning hot tub. We weren't brave enough for the hot tub, but believe that it would be great. Bed is comfy and I appreciated the electrical blanket! Great WiFi! Peaceful and relaxing. Everything in the kitchen you'll need. We will definitely come again.
