Unforgettable. I'm definitely coming back with my partner. Our stay was exceptional. The house was spacious and clean. The cleaning lady Kgabo, thank you so much. We love your house and your view.

It was a wonderful experience with a few minor negative aspects. We had a great stay. My wife and I were with our daughter and twin granddaughters (10). The four bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, were a luxury. The house is old, but beautifully situated next to a river and at the foot of mountains. We had a lovely walk and enjoyed the friendly horses. The gravel road to the unit is in reasonably good condition, but we drove in the rain and it was quite a challenge. The braai wood available at reception was a huge disappointment and the coals were wasted within minutes. Although the website indicated that WiFi was available, there was no WiFi and no Vodacom signal. There was also no TV. However, this did not bother us, because we were able to enjoy nature.

Dit was 'n wonderlike ervaring met enkele geringe negatiewe aspekte. Ons het baie lekker gebly. Ons dogter en tweelingkleindogters (10) was saam met my en my vrou. Die vier slaapkamers, elk met sy eie en suite-badkamer, was ’n luukse. Die woning is oud, maar pragtig geleë langs ’n riviertjie en aan die voet van berge. Ons het heerlik gestap en die vriendelike perde geniet. Die grondpad na die eenheid is in ’n redelike goeie toestand, maar ons het in die reën gery en dit was nogal ’n uitdaging. Die braaihout wat by ontvangs beskikbaar was, was ’n enorme teleurstelling en die kole was binne minute morsdood. Alhoewel die webtuiste aangedui het dat WiFi beskikbaar is, was daar geen WiFi en ook geen Vodacom-sein nie. Daar was ook nie ’n TV nie. Dit het ons egter nie gepla nie, want ons kon ons verlustig aan die natuur.

Lovely position, nice layout, awesome bathrooms, good linen (bedding and towels). Lovely spot on the river, nice layout. Top-class bedding and luxurious towels. Bathrooms are lovely. Needs TLC. The owner should find a new cleaning and maintenance team. A shade net is needed over the outside braai area, which would make it awesome as it is on the river. Lovely mountain views with regular visits across the river by game animals: kudu, blesbuck, waterbuck, rooihartebees, impala.

Will go again just stay in a different place. The house needs a lot of attention. And definitely new beds. Didn't sleep well at all in one of the rooms.

Sal weer gaan net in 'n ander plek bly. Die huis kort baie aandag. En vir seker nuwe beddens. Het glad nie lekker geslaap in een van die kamers nie.

Stunning location. Comfortable, luxurious lodging. Comfortable, spacious lodging with stunning views. Tasteful furnishings and 4 very private ensuite bedrooms. Kitchen well stocked. It's a shame the main gas supply was faulty; could not use the heaters in the bedrooms. No soap in the bathrooms. An enjoyable stopover.

Nice, but unit needs proper cleaning and repairs. Stay was good. However, the unit was dirty and not cleaned properly. There was also a complete stacking door missing from the patio and it was not very well maintained.

My concern is that the place was dirty; proper cleaning needs to be conducted. My stay was perfect, though I was not happy with the house cleaning. The windows are dirty, the toilet pots had rust, and there was no gas for the bedroom fireplaces.
