Excellent service, will stay overnight with you again and breakfast was the best. Very, very nice stay. Everything was so neat and clean and tasteful.

Uitstekende diens, sal weer oornag by julle en ontbyt was the best. Baie, baie lekker gebly. Als so netjies en skoon en smaakvol.

Winterton Country Lodge @ Rose Cottage was awesome. I stayed in the Lodge for 1 night and moved on to a work function the next day. I stayed in Room 6. It was neat, clean, fully equipped, and very tastefully furnished. I had to work that evening, so the WiFi came in handy and the "Smart" TV was an absolute bonus. If you want to stay over or anywhere in the central Drakensberg, go to this lodge. In "real life" this place is picture perfect.

Ek het 1 aand in die Lodge gebly en die volgende dag na 'n werksfunksie toe aan beweeg. Ek het in Kamer 6 gebly. Dit was netjies, skoon, ten volle toegerus, en baie smaakvol gemeubileer. Ek moes werk die aand, so die WiFi het handig te pas gekom en "Smart" TV was 'n absolute bonus. As jy wil oorbly of enige plek in die sentrale Drakensberge gaan bly, gaan gerus na hierdie lodge toe. In "real life" is hierdie plek prentjie mooi.

I'd rather not. I was very upset when I arrived at the destination on Friday night. After all the confirmations I received, and also the WhatsApp message on Friday that it was my check-in day, there was no room booked for me. I was very upset—I had come from Pretoria for a wedding and had nowhere to stay. They did make a plan, but I don’t know if I will use the website again. Are there no proper confirmations? My TV didn’t work; the batteries were dead. I reported it, but it wasn’t replaced. Because the room was arranged for me in a hurry, there wasn’t enough shower gel or soap at the sink either. I really don’t know what you pay for. We didn’t have a bad stay and it was clean, but that doesn’t take away the bitter taste in my mouth.

Liewer nie. Ek was baie ontsteld toe ek Vrydagaand by die bestemming aangekom het. Ná al die bevestigings wat ek ontvang het, en ook die WhatsApp-boodskap Vrydag dat dit my inboekdag is, was daar nie plek vir my bespreek nie. Ek was baie ontsteld—ek het van Pretoria af gekom vir ’n troue en het geen blyplek gehad nie. Hulle het wel ’n plan gemaak, maar ek weet nie of ek weer van die webtuiste gebruik gaan maak nie. Word daar nie behoorlike bevestigings gedoen nie? My TV het nie gewerk nie; die batterye was pap. Ek het dit aangemeld, maar dit is nie vervang nie. Omdat die kamer inderhaas vir my gereël is, was daar ook nie genoeg stortseep of seep by die wasbak nie. Ek weet regtig nie waarvoor mens betaal nie. Ons het nie sleg gebly nie en dit was skoon, maar dit vat nie die bitter smaak in my mond weg nie.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment you experienced during your stay. Regarding your arrival, we would like to assure you that we did recognize and confirm your reservation. This situation is highly unusual and has not happened before. It appears that there may have been a technical error or “glitch” in the system, for which we sincerely apologize. We fully understand how upsetting it must have been to arrive after a long journey, and with an important event such as a wedding, without clear arrangements. Regarding the TV and batteries: when you reported this, we did use the air conditioner batteries to test whether the TV remote works. When we offered to go and get more batteries, you indicated that this was not necessary as you would not be using the device. We wanted to respect your privacy and therefore did not disturb you again, with the intention of fully checking it after you checked out. We also note your feedback regarding the lack of basic amenities such as soap. This is certainly not the standard we strive for, and we are addressing this internally to ensure that it does not happen again. We appreciate your honest feedback as it helps us improve our service. We sincerely hope that we will have the opportunity to restore your trust and provide you with a much better experience in the future. Kind regards, The WCL Team

Baie dankie dat u die tyd geneem het om u ervaring met ons te deel. Ons wil opreg om verskoning vra vir die ongerief en teleurstelling wat u ervaar het tydens u verblyf. Wat u aankoms betref, wil ons u verseker dat ons wel u bespreking herken en bevestig het. Hierdie situasie is hoogs ongewoon en het nog nie voorheen gebeur nie. Dit blyk dat daar moontlik ’n tegniese fout of “glitch” in die stelsel was, waarvoor ons opreg om verskoning vra. Ons verstaan ten volle hoe ontstellend dit moes wees om ná ’n lang reis, en met ’n belangrike geleentheid soos ’n troue, sonder duidelike reëlings te arriveer. Rakende die TV en batterye: toe u dit aangemeld het, het ons wel die lugversorger se batterye gebruik om te toets of die TV remote werk. Toe ons aangebied het om verdere batterye te gaan haal, het u aangedui dat dit nie nodig is nie aangesien u nie die toestel sou gebruik nie. Ons wou u privaatheid respekteer en het daarom nie weer gesteur nie, met die bedoeling om dit ná u uitklok volledig na te gaan. Ons neem ook kennis van u terugvoer oor die tekort aan basiese geriewe soos seep. Dit is beslis nie die standaard wat ons nastreef nie, en ons spreek dit intern aan om te verseker dat dit nie weer gebeur nie. Ons waardeer u eerlike terugvoer aangesien dit ons help om ons diens te verbeter. Ons hoop opreg dat ons in die toekoms weer die geleentheid sal hê om u vertroue te herstel en vir u ’n baie beter ervaring te bied. Vriendelike groete, Die WCL span

Had a wonderful, warm and cozy stay! Pleasantly surprised with the beautiful room and all its features! Thoroughly enjoyed the fireplace. Attention to detail in every aspect, from the tots of Sherry to the electric blankets. Will definitely recommend this place! Beautiful venue, peaceful and tranquil!

Wonderful getaway. We had a very, very nice stay. The accommodation and surroundings were 'magical'. Very friendly welcome by Julita and nothing was missing. Breakfast was delicious! Will definitely stay there again. Merry Christmas.

Heerlike wegbreek. Ons het baie, baie lekker gebly. Die blyplek en omgewing was 'magical'. Baie vriendelik ontvang deur Julita en het niks gekort nie. Ontbyt was heerlik! Sal beslis weer daar oorslaap. Geseende kersgety.
