Good stay, everything you need is there. Nice stay, the doors are just a little low for us tall people, I banged my head.

Goeie verblyf, alles wat mens benodig is daar. Lekker gebly, die deure is net bietjie laag vir ons lang mense, ek het my kop stukkend gestamp.

Good day Arrie, I am so sorry about your bump on your forehead. It is now the nostalgia of the house with its low and narrow doors that makes it so unique. Thank you again for choosing Gannahoek. Regards, Shirley

Goeie dag Arrie, Ek is so jammer oor jou hou op jou voorkop. Dis nou die nostalgia van die huisie met sy lae en smal deure wat dit so uniek maak. Nogmaals dankie dat jy Gannahoek gekies het. Groete, Shirley

Very primitive, not worth the money. For us the fridge was a problem and disappointment. The place is great if you want to be completely off the grid, but the gas fridge didn't work, so we had food that went off. You're also far from town, so can't drive in anytime if you need fresh meat or anything. Only for those who really want to stay old school. Also a suggestion not to stay in the summer if you get hot easily. No way to cool down.

Baie primitief, nie die geld werd nie. Vir ons was die yskas 'n probleem en teleurstelling. Die plekkie is great as jy heeltemal off the grid wil wees, maar die gas yskas het nie gewerk nie, so ons het kos gehad wat afgegaan het. Jy is ook ver van die dorp, so kan nie enige tyd inry as jy vars vleis of iets nodig het nie. Net vir die persone wat regtig old school wil bly. Ook 'n voorstel om nie in die somer oor te bly as jy maklik warm kry nie. Geen manier om af te koel nie.

House was far too hot and uncomfortable to sleep in. No, we didn't have a completely pleasant stay.

Huis was heeltemal te warm en ongemaklik om in te slaap. Nee, ons het nie heeltemal lekker gebly nie.

Good afternoon Dewald, I am very sorry that you were uncomfortable at Gannahoek. You were aware that it was an old farm house and without electricity, therefore no fans. You should please check your location carefully where you want to spend the night, because here in the Upper Karoo fans do not help either and it is bloody hot during the months from November to March. Again sorry that you got hot and rested uncomfortably because of the heat here with us. Regards Shirley Boshoff

Goeie middag Dewald, Ek is baie jammer dat u ongemaklik was op Gannahoek. U was bewus daarvan dat dit 'n ou plaas huis was en met sonder elektrisiteit, sodoende geen waaiers. U moet asb. u ligging goed kyk waar u wil oornag, want hier by ons in die Bo-Karoo help waaiers ook nie en is oor die maande vanaf Nov tot Maart bloedig warm. Weereens jammer dat u warm gekry het en ongemaklik gerus het a.g.v. die hitte hier by ons. Groete Shirley Boshoff

Clean, safe, real farm. Nice. Very nice stay, nice overnight stop for a long journey. Everything was clean and tidy. My dog and I had a good barbecue, walked and slept. The hostess quickly came back and let me know I was welcome. She went out of her way and waited for me. Thank you very much for a safe haven on the long road.

Skoon, veilig, eg-plaas. Lekker. Baie lekker gebly, lekker oornagplekkie vir 'n lang pad. Alles was skoon en netjies. Ek en my hondekind het lekker gebraai, gestap en geslaap. Die gasvrou het vinnig teruggekom en laat weet ek is welkom. Sy het uit haar pad gegaan en daar gewag vir my. Baie dankie vir 'n veilige hawe op die lang pad.

Quiet and safe. Awesome sunset! Will definitely stay there again. Wonderful place! Just got homesick when I walked into the house.

Rustig en veilig. Awesome sonsondergang! Sal beslis weer daar gaan oornag. Wonderlike plek! Het sommer heimwee gekry toe ek by die huis instap.

Nice quiet spacious. Friendly reception, spacious rooms and enough braai places to choose from. Quiet and safe.

Lekker stil ruim. Vriendelike ontvangs, ruim vertrekke en genoeg braaiplekke om van te kies. Stil en veilig.

Peaceful, safe and quiet Karookuier. The starry splendor is astonishing. The old-fashioned donkey stove for hot water. Fireplace in the kitchen creates an atmosphere that many people have forgotten and other people long for. Wow!

Rustige, veilige en stil Karookuier. Die sterre-prag is verstommend. Die outydse donkie stook vir warm water. Vuurherd in die kombuis skep 'n atmosfeer wat baie mense al vergeet het en ander mense na smag. Wow!
