Net lekker!

Baie aangename en gerieflike oornagplek. Muskietmatjies/inpropmuskietdoders sou 'n aanwins wees.

Just delicious!

Very pleasant and comfortable place to stay. Mosquito nets/plug-in mosquito repellents would be an asset.

Comfortable, well-equipped, tastefully furnished, great for a stopover.

WiFi would be a bonus. A bit cold in winter!

Tinkerbell het ons behoeftes baie goed gepas.

Ons reis met honde, en het op kort kennisgewing 'n omheinde plek gesoek. Tinkerbel is uitstekend vir honde, hulle kan lekker speel. Ons kan ook nie bly by plekke wat spierwit linne het nie, al slaap ons honde op die vloer is ek altyd bekommerd oor wit duvets, net ingeval. So vir my behoeftes was Tinkerbel nommerpas. En daar was 'n komplimentêre bottel wyn en die heel belangrikste, 'n sak ys in die vrieskas. Dis bedagsaam. Daar was ook lampe en gas, ons het beurkrag getref. Die gasheer het ons kom waarsku voor die tyd.

Tinkerbell suited our needs very well.

We travel with dogs, and were looking for a fenced-in place at short notice. Tinkerbell is excellent for dogs, they can play well. We also can't stay at places that have pure white linen, even though our dogs sleep on the floor I'm always worried about white duvets, just in case. So for my needs Tinkerbel was perfect. And there was a complimentary bottle of wine and most importantly, a bag of ice in the freezer. It's thoughtful. There were also lamps and gas, we hit beurkrag. The host came to warn us ahead of time.

Tinkerbell is a gem unexpected.

From the outside one would never imagine that the house opens up to a lovely home away from home.Nice fire by the fireplace and big spacious room.Area very quiet ensuring a nice good night rest.

Lieflike dekor, baie rustig, goeie beddens.

Ons het net een aand hier geslaap, maar ek was mal oor Tinkerbell. Mens noem die dekor seker eclectic. Dis 'n mengsel van oud en nuut, moderne skilderye in een vertrek en 'n ou boere paintings in 'n ander. Orals in die huis is daar klein verrassings in die keuse van kunswerke, kleur kombinasies wat vars en met-die-tyd is. Hou in gedagte daar gaan nie veel aan in Rouxville nie, maar mens is net 'n halfuur se ry van Zastron af. Die vertrekke is groot, die beddens gemaklik. Die bottel wyn en sjerry was 'n lekker verrassing toe ons daar opdaag. Daar is oulike details soos olielampe in plaas van gewone elektriese bedlampe. Tinkelbell staan uit in die details van die plek. Daar is 'n kort stukkie grondpad om te ry tot by die huis. Die eienaar was ook baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ek sal Tinkelbell maklik aanbeveel.

Lovely decor, very peaceful, good beds.

We only slept here one night, but I loved Tinkerbell. One might call the decor eclectic. It's a mix of old and new, modern paintings in one room and old peasant paintings in another. Everywhere in the house there are small surprises in the selection of artworks, color combinations that are fresh and with the times. Keep in mind that there is not much going on in Rouxville, but you are only half an hour's drive from Zastron. The rooms are large, the beds comfortable. The bottle of wine and sherry was a nice surprise when we arrived. There are cute details such as oil lamps instead of ordinary electric bedside lamps. Tinkelbell stands out in the details of the place. There is a short stretch of dirt road to drive to the house. The owner was also very friendly and helpful. I would easily recommend Tinkelbell.

'n Pragtige, interessante, goed toegeruste en plattelandse huisie met 'n kaggel, braaiplek, pool-tafel, boeke en 'n geskenk-wynbottel.

Ons het die aand baie geniet. Die huis is skoon, goed toegerus, billik en op die oog af veilig. Ek sal weer in dieselfde huis oorbly sou die geleentheid hom voordoen. Dis jammer dat Rouxville soos baie plattelandse dorpies agteruitgaan, maar die eienaars van Tinkerbell en 'n paar ander huiseienaars probeer hard om die dorp te laat oorleef.

A beautiful, interesting, and well equipped and rural house with a fireplace, braai area, pool table, books and a bottle wine as gift.

We enjoyed the night tremendously. The house is clean, well equipped, reasonable and seemingly safe. I will stay in the same house again if I had the opportunity. It's a shame that Rouxville, like many other rural towns, is going downhill, but the owners at Tinkerbell and a few of the home owners are working hard to revive to the town.

Dit is 'n pragtige ou huis wat my laat voel het ek het 'tuis' gekom.

Baie goed ingerig (selfs tydens beurtkrag is daar gas beskikbaar) en gerieflik. Baie dankie.

Seker die beste blyplek in Rouxville.

Rouxville is nie 'n vakansiebestemming nie, maar as jy daar deurgaan, is Tinkerbell regtig 'n oulike plek. Die plek is seker die beste selfsorghuisie in Rouxville. As jy van geskiedenis hou, moet jy daar 'n draai maak. Die plek is vol tydskrifte uit die 60's, en baie oulike boeke oor die geskiedenis van Rouxville en omgewing. Ons het dit baie geniet om daar oor te bly vir 2 nagte. Die dorp self loop sleg deur onder die huidige droogte. Uit die bogenoemde geskiedenisboeke lei ek af dat Rouxville eintlik stadig agteruitgaan sedert die spoorlyn deur Zastron gebou is in die vroe 20ste eeu. As jy in Rouxville gaan oorslaap, kan ek hierdie huisie aanbeveel.

Probably the best place to stay in Rouxville.

Rouxville is not a vacation destination, but if you pass through, Tinkerbell is a really cute place. The place is probably the best self-catering house in Rouxville. If you like history, you should pay a visit there. The place is full of magazines from the 60s, and lots of cool books about the history of Rouxville and surroundings. We really enjoyed staying there for 2 nights. The town itself is doing badly under the current drought. From the above history books, I deduce that Rouxville has actually been slowly deteriorating since the railroad was built by Zastron in the early 20th century. If you are going to spend the night in Rouxville, I can recommend this cottage.

Rustig, gemaklik en vreedsaam.

Ons het in 'n klein, droë dorpie met slegs stofstrate aangekom. Van buite was die huise 'n welkome oog met sy kleurvolle buitekant! Maklik die sleutel gekry. Binne was vars, skoon en koel. Die slaapplek was genoegsaam vir ons 5 en gemaklik. Alhoewel die eienares goeie telefoniese kontak behou het tussendeur, sou dit vir ons baie aangenaam gewees het om haar te ontmoet en self te bedank vir al die moeite! Die enigste uitdagings was die waterdruk en die feit dat daar nie 'n stort was nie. Die werkspasie in die kombuis was ook baie beperk! 'n Voorstel van 'n klein, vierkantige of ronde tafel/werkblad in die middel van die kombuis kan dalk oorweeg word.

Quiet, comfortable and peaceful.

We arrived in a small, dry town with only dusty streets. From the outside, the houses were a welcome sight with their colorful exteriors! Easily got the key. Inside was fresh, clean and cool. The sleeping accommodation was sufficient for the 5 of us and comfortable. Although the owner maintained good telephone contact in between, it would have been very pleasant for us to meet her and thank her for all the trouble! The only challenges were the water pressure and the fact that there was no shower. The work space in the kitchen was also very limited! A suggestion of a small, square or round table/worktop in the center of the kitchen might be considered.
