Spacious and friendly - relaxed. Was really great - we have toured on bicycles from KZN, stayed in over 10 different places and this was one of the best. Hosts were very informative about any details that we needed to know.

Enjoyable stay. We had a lovely stay at Die Dorpshuis - all was catered for. Only blemish, no TV - do not advertise if you can't offer it.

Average accommodation, grounds and swimming pool need attention. Reasonable stay, accommodation average, grounds need attention.

Blyplek gemiddeld, terrein en swembad kort aandag. Redelik gebly, akkommodasie gemiddeld, terrein kort aandag.

Glad we only stayed one night. Not really. Self-catering unit was dirty. Full of cobwebs and daddy long legs under and next to bed and in corners. Stink of an old outdoor toilet was in kitchen area. Bed and bedding were fine and clean, neat linen and pillows. Shower door and bathroom door of one room broken. There was a working aircon and clean towels in rooms, as well as a bar fridge in one room. Curtains very messy, in some places too long and in other places none or too short. Neglected place to stay. Outside some windows and outside walls full of old bird droppings. They could have cleaned it. Only stayed one night, don't know about the rest of the guest rooms in the main house, as well as no meals there. Car could be parked inside the gate, but low walls and gate. So not really secure. We didn't have any incidents. Swimming pool water was clean, but stained edge or algae were present. We understand and accept 'rustic', but it's no excuse for being dirty and full of cobwebs.

Was bly ons het net een aand gebly. Nie juis nie. Selfsorg eenheid was vuil. Vol spinnerakke en daddy long legs onder en langs bed en in hoeke. Stank van 'n ou buite toilet was in kombuis area. Bed en beddegoed was wel reg en skoon, netjiese linne en kussings. Stortdeur en badkamerdeur van een kamer stukkend. Daar was wel 'n werkende aircon en skoon handdoeke in kamers, asook 'n yskassie in een kamer. Gordyne baie morsig, plek plek te lank en ander plek geen of te kort. Afgeskeepte blyplek. Buite sommige vensters en buite mure vol ou voëlmis. Hulle kon dit darem skoon gemaak het. Net een aand gebly, weet nie van res van gastekamers in hoofhuis nie, asook geen etes daar nie. Motor kon wel binne hek staan, maar lae mure en hek. So nie juis sekuriteit nie. Ons het nie enige voorval gehad nie. Swembadwater was skoon, maar gevlekte rand of alge was teenwoordig. Ons verstaan en aanvaar 'rustic', maar dis geen verskoning om vuil en vol spinnerakke te wees nie.

Disappointing experience - Not as advertised. I recently booked accommodation via the website for my husband, but was unhappy with the accurate representation of the Dorpshuis. The description states that there is a restaurant on site, but upon arrival it was clear that the restaurant was not operational. This forced him to quickly look for alternative places to eat, which was inconvenient. There was also a water problem in the village, which is understandable, but the host made no effort to provide an alternative solution—especially not for basic amenities like flushing toilets. He was also unable to shower, which further made the stay uncomfortable. I believe that accurate and honest descriptions on the website are important, so that guests know what to expect. This experience was disappointing, and I hope future guests will be better informed.

Teleurstellende ervaring - Nie soos geadverteer nie. Ek het onlangs akkommodasie bespreek via die webtuiste, vir my man, maar was ongelukkig met die akkurate voorstelling van die Dorpshuis. In die beskrywing word gemeld dat daar 'n restaurant op die perseel is, maar by aankoms was dit duidelik dat die restaurant nie operasioneel is nie. Dit het hom gedwing om haastig alternatiewe plekke te soek vir etes, wat ongerieflik was. Daar was ook 'n waterprobleem in die dorp, wat verstaanbaar is, maar die gasheer het geen moeite gedoen om 'n alternatiewe oplossing te bied nie—veral nie vir basiese geriewe soos die spoel van toilette nie. Hy kon ook nie stort nie, wat die verblyf verder ongemaklik gemaak het. Ek glo dat akkurate en eerlike beskrywings op die webtuiste belangrik is, sodat gaste weet wat om te verwag. Hierdie ervaring was teleurstellend, en ek hoop dat toekomstige gaste beter ingelig sal word.
