Love Rosendal. Charming.

Was great for our Christmas weekend with family. Beautiful decor. Kitchen well equipped. (Maybe provide dish pods). Several serious plumbing issues that weren't dealt with when asked.

Well preserved house beautifully decorated. Extremely great location!

Unfortunately, we felt that the house could be better stocked with more cutlery and crockery suitable for catering for oneself. For a group of 6 people, the glasses for example were very little - not even 6 of everything. If you want to market a house as being able to accommodate 10 people, you should provide 10 of everything. Plates were enough, some crockery items like teaspoons definitely not. Cereal bowls are also not enough for a group of 10. It also would be nice to have very basic pantry items for catering for yourself, such as salt, black pepper, olive oil, both coffee and tea (not just tea). We also visited the Post Office in 2019, and then for example there were salt, black pepper and olive oil - which now 4 years later in 2023 was unfortunately not the case. . But overall still a great experience.

Different experience and very enjoyable.

We enjoyed the fact that we could take our doggies to the Wine Bar next door. Was very cosy and relaxing. Food and wine were delicious and not the norm. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Fireplace and electric blankets were definitely a plus as it was freezing. All in all an enjoyable stay.

Gemaklike akkomodasie in die dorp met alles wat 'n mens nodig het vir selfsorg.

Reg langs die Wine Bar wat 'n lekker bymekaar-kom-plek is vir almal in die dorp. Ons het gesellig om die vuur gekuier, maar het wel gesukkel met warm water. Ons het lekker gekuier en die stof strate verken. Ontbyt by Benjamin's gehad, skemer kelkies by The Service Station en verder gekaggel, gelees en kaart gespeel. As jy wil rus, is dit die plek vir jou.

Comfortable accommodation in the town with everything one needs for self-catering.

Right next to the Wine Bar which is a nice gathering place for everyone in town. We had a cozy time around the fire, but did struggle with hot water. We had a good time and explored the dusty streets. Had breakfast at Benjamin's, twilight cups at The Service Station and continued by the fireplace, read and played cards. If you want to rest, this is the place for you.

When we arrived it was during load shedding Valma, had done everything she could to make our stay as comfortable as possible. I would truly recommend the post office to anyone that visits Rosendal.

Rustige en pragtige dorp.

Huis was baie mooi en goed toegerus. Marius is baie hulpvaardig en almal is so vriendelik en verwelkomend. Huis het alles wat nodig is en die gasoond en -stoof is definitief 'n groot pluspunt. Net klein kommentaar: Die gordyne in die hoofslaapkamer se badkamer is vol ou dooie gediertes en kort net 'n lekker skrop. Badkamer bo se bad het nie warm water nie, maar ons het hom nie benodig nie.

Quiet and beautiful town.

House was very nice and well equipped. Marius is very helpful and everyone is so friendly and welcoming. House has everything needed and the gas oven and stove are definitely a big plus. Just a small comment: The curtains in the master bedroom bathroom are full of old dead animals and just need a good scrubbing. Bathroom upstairs bath does not have hot water, but we did not need it.

Heerlik rustig!

Ons was 'n gesin met klein kinders en 'n oupa en ouma. Dit is 'n heerlike, ruim huis met 'n lieflike stoep. Marius ons gasheer was ongelooflik vriendelik en behulpsaam. Daar kan bietjie meer messe en vurke wees️️️. Dankie vir so 'n lekker, rustige naweek!

We were a family with small children and a grandfather and grandmother. It is a lovely, spacious house with a lovely porch. Marius our host was incredibly friendly and helpful. There could be a little more knives and forks️️️. Thank you for such a nice, peaceful weekend!

Die Poskantoor is pragtig, skoon en baie goed toegerus.

Ons het ons verblyf baie geniet, alles is regtig mooi en Marius was baie akkommoderend. Wees asb. net baie versigtig met die paaie. Ons stadsmotor het nie so goed daar gevaar nie! Die dorpie self is lieflik. Die boere het baie gou saamgestaan en ons kar buite die dorp gaan regmaak. Pragtige mense!

We really enjoyed our stay, everything is really nice and Marius was very accommodating. Please be just be very careful on the roads. Our city car didn't do so well there! The village itself is lovely. The farmers soon got together and went to fix our car outside the village. Beautiful people!

Sal beslis The Post Office aanbeveel. Baie gerieflik, netjies en mooi. Die gasgeiser was bietjie nukkerig, maar Marius is bewus van dit en sal aandag gee.

Heerlike kuier plek.

Wat mens kry is presies soos die foto's. Perfek skoon - baie karakter. Marius het ons vriendelik ontvang en dadelik nog hout gestuur vir die kaggel nadat ons die bestaande voorraad uitgebrand het. Die elektriese komberse op die beddens is perfek vir die koue Rosendal-nagte. Ons gaan beslis weer daar kuier.

Great place to visit.

What you get is exactly like the photos. Perfectly clean - lots of character. Marius received us kindly and immediately sent more wood for the fireplace after we burned out the existing stock. The electric blankets on the beds are perfect for the cold Rosendal nights. We will definitely visit there again.
