Had a good break - thank you. Enjoyed our stay. The hot tub should be cleaner. Perhaps supply a mosquito coil or plug-in. A bath mat would be a good idea, perhaps more towels. Fantastic sunrise pics.

The view: Customer Service:. The place to sleep was fine. Smaller than expected. The photos give a big misconception. The Blue House is not a house – it’s a little room. And if you book the little room next door, you can hear everything that’s going on. We could hear every toilet flush, every conversation, every laugh from the guests next door. We slept very poorly. The beds were comfortable, though. The fireplace doesn’t work. You’re going to smoke yourself out of the room for two hours. That’s always nice. We also did an event here, but it was a total mess. Nothing was right. The gates were closed – guests had to wait in front of the gates. First we were taken to the wrong venue. After a whole back and forth, it was fixed. Then we were taken to the Glass House, which I paid for. The hall was dirty. The tables were dirty – we washed the tables ourselves and set the hall up. The emails and website chats said from 10am to 12pm, but since the hall wasn’t ready, we couldn’t start until after 10am. Our guests were then chased off the farm and I had to pay an additional R1000. The hostess wouldn’t open the gates for us to leave until she saw proof of payment. Extremely poor!

Die view: Kliëntediens:. Die slaapplek was fine. Kleiner as verwag. Die foto's gee 'n groot wanpersepsie. Die Blouhuisie is nie ’n huisie nie – dis ’n kamertjie. En as jy die kamertjie langsaan boek, kan jy alles hoor wat aangaan. Ons kon elke toiletspoel hoor, elke gesprek, elke lag van die gaste langsaan. Ons het bitter swak geslaap. Die beddens was gemaklik, though. Die kaggel werk nie. Jy gaan jouself uit die kamer uit rook vir twee ure. Dis altyd lekker. Ons het ’n event hier ook gedoen, maar dit was ’n totale gemors. Niks was reg nie. Die hekke was toe – gaste moes wag voor die hekke. Eers is ons na die verkeerde venue geneem. Ná ’n hele heen-en-weerdery is dit reggestel. Toe is ons geneem na die Glashuis waarvoor ek betaal het. Die saal was vuil. Die tafels was vuil – ons het self die tafels afgewas en die saal reggesit. Op die e-posse en die webtuiste se chats is daar gesê van 10h tot 12h, maar aangesien die saal nie reg was nie, kon ons eers ná 10h begin. Ons gaste is toe van die plaas afgejaag en ek moes ’n addisionele R1000 betaal. Die gasvrou wou nie die hekke oopmaak vir ons om te vertrek nie, totdat sy die bewys van betaling gesien het. Uiterst swak!
