Heerlik gekuier en rustigheid geniet.

Baie lekker plekkie. Ligging is perfek. Baie wild wat kom kuier en die kinders het dit baie geniet. Vriendelike diens vanaf julle en die eienaars. Sal definitief weer gaan. Vat net wildspallets saam.

Have a great time and enjoy the tranquility.

Very nice place. Location is perfect. Lots of wildlife that came to visit and the children really enjoyed it. Friendly service from you and the owners. Will definitely go again. Only take game spallets with you.

Skoon, gerieflik & goed geleë.

Eienaars het gereeld gekommunikeer om te verseker dat ons gerieflik en gelukkig is. Vriendelike en voortreflike diens. Ons "mede-inwoners" in Marloth het gereelde besoeke gebring, oggende en saans. Vlakvarke, koedoes, sebras, dwergmuishonde was 'n ondervinding vir die kleinkinders. Ons nagapie-vriende het ons nie een aand teleurgestel nie. Die kameelperd wat kom groet het was 'n bonus. Dankie Jeannette!

Clean, comfortable & well located.

Owners communicated frequently to ensure we were comfortable and happy. Friendly and excellent service. Our "fellow residents" in Marloth paid regular visits, mornings and evenings. Warthogs, kudus, zebras, pygmy mouse dogs were an experience for the grandchildren. Our late night friends did not disappoint us one night. The giraffe that came to say hello was a bonus. Thanks Jeanette!

Teleurstellend.

Klein, beknop, donker en bedompig. Waaiers wel beskikbaar, maar onvoldoende. Die gasgeiser is in die piepklein kombuis/leef-area installeer in plaas van buite teen die muur en gee soveel hitte af, dat dit die huisie in 'n sauna omskep. Die huisie is donker binne en die gordyne kan net gedeeltelik opgemaak word om meer lig in te laat, omrede die gordyne bo aan mekaar vasgeknoop is en dus nie kan oopskuif nie. Die badkamer is ook klein en beknop en die stort het nog 'n plastiekgordyn in plaas van 'n stort deur, met die gevolg die badkamer vloer papnat is elke keer as die stort gebruik word. Wat die stortgordyn aanbetref, dit is 2019 mense, nie meer 1975 nie! Jammer, maar vir iemand wat in gerief en gemak wil vakansie hou, kan ek Swartwitpens 2362 nie aanbeveel nie. 3 uit 10.

Disappointing.

Small, cramped, dark and stuffy. Fans are available, but insufficient. The gas geyser is installed in the tiny kitchen/living area instead of outside against the wall and gives off so much heat that it transforms the cottage into a sauna. The house is dark inside and the curtains can only be partly drawn up to let in more light, because the curtains are tied together at the top and therefore cannot be moved open. The bathroom is also small and cramped and the shower still has a plastic curtain instead of a shower door, with the result that the bathroom floor is soaking wet every time the shower is used. As for the shower curtain, this is 2019 people, not 1975 anymore! Sorry, but for someone who wants to holiday in comfort and ease, I cannot recommend Swarwitpens 2362. 3 out of 10.

Beste Jacques,
Jammer dat julle alles negatief ervaar het. Ons is die gelukkige posisie dat die huisie was vol bespreek vir Des 18, van ons gaste het weer bespreek en geen ander gaste het gekla nie. Almal het dit baie geniet. Sterkte en voorspoed vir 2019.

Dit was 'n groot avontuur gewees.

Ons het heerlik gekuier saam met ons vriende. Die natuurlewe was fantasties gewees. Die huis was skoon en ons het die braai area baie geniet.

Rustig met net diereklanke en my gesin se stemme in my ore - salig!

Die huisie is knus en uitstekend toegerus. Heerlike gesinstyd en genoeg ruimte om ook alleen tenkies vol te maak. Ek kon kilometers ver stap, verf, lees, legkaart bou, bak en brou, my man kon elke dag alleen braai en saans buite vir die vuur kyk, en die kinders kon lees en speletjies speel.

Quiet with only animal sounds and my family's voices in my ears - blissful!

The house is cozy and excellently equipped. Great family time and enough space to fill tanks alone. I could walk for miles, paint, read, build puzzles, bake and brew, my husband could barbecue by himself every day and watch the fire outside at night, and the children could read and play games.

Het net daar geslaap. Was die hele dag vir 8 dae in die wildtuin.

Om die huis sleutels te kry was 'n probleem. Geen kaart van Marloth Park gehad nie. Die rigtingaanwysers wat ons van die hek gekry het was totaal onduidelik. Ons het heen en weer gery vir 'n driekwartuur voordat ons self 'n Field Security bakkie voorgekeer het om ons te help. Daarna was dit maklik. Ons het van Brakpan af Marloth toe gery, ons 4 is almal bo 70 en het regtig nie die ongerief nodig gehad om die sekuriteitskantoor te soek om die sleutel te kry nie! 'n Kaart van Marloth wat duidelik die nodige plekke aanwys sou al die ongerief uitgeskakel het! Die res van die verblyf was baie goed!

Only slept there.

To get the keys to the house was a problem. Had no map of Marloth Park. The directions we got from the gate was completely unclear. We drove this way and that for three quarters of an hour before we stopped a Field Security bakkie to help us. After that it was easy. We drove from Brakpan to Marloth, we were 4 people all above 70 and really didn't need to go looking for the security office to get the key! A map of Marloth that shows all the necessary places would have cancelled out all the inconvenience. The rest of our stay was fine!

Amazing tyd met 'n paar terugslae.

Dit was 'n heerlike tydjie in die bos. Ongelukkig was die eerste indruk wat ons gekry het met aankoms nie so verwelkomend nie. Ons moes eers die skottelgoed was, wat in 'n power kondisie was en die huis uitvee. Die kamer waaiers was vuil en die een bank in die voorhuis was gebreek en geen mens kon op hom sit nie. Dit het sommer dadelik die atmosfeer geskep vir teleurstelling. Maar na alles in plek en reg was het ons ons tydjie geniet.

Amazing time with a few setbacks.

It was a lovely time in the forest. Unfortunately, the first impression we received on arrival wasn't very welcoming. We first had to wash the dishes, which were in a poor condition and sweep the house. The fans in the rooms were dirty and the couch in the living room was broken and you couldn't sit on it. It immediately created the atmosphere for disappointment. But after everything was is in place we enjoy our time.

Beste Duane en Gesin,
Nogmaals baie dankie dat julle ons huisie gebruik het.
Die dame wat vir daardie huise se skoonmaak verantwoordelik was het probleme ontwikkel, en het bedank terwyl julle daar was.
Sy het verduidelik van die huisie wat nie op standaard was. Ons was so gelukkig om vinnig deur n ander maatskappy 'n skoonmaker te kon kry, veral in ag genome die skool vakansie. Was dit nie vir julle geduld en samewerking nie sou dit baie moeiliker gewees het. Ons is egter dankbaar julle het die vakansie geniet.
Groete

Rus en vrede in die bos!

Baie lekker plekkie. Skoon en netjies en goed toegerus. Die patiostoele het saans oortyd gewerk! Die stilte is ongelooflik. Die kinders het dit vreeslik geniet om so naby aan wilde diere te wees en hulle te voer. Sekuriteitsmaatskappye patrolleer die strate gereeld, wat mens veilig laat voel. Met aankoms het die stopkraan teen die huis probleme gegee, maar Dawn het dit binne 15 minute uitsorteer en sy het later weer geskakel om te hoor of alles reg is. Ons was heel beïndruk met die goeie diens. Sal beslis weer van die plekkie gebruik maak.

Rest and peace in the forest!

Very nice place. Clean and tidy and well equipped. The patio chairs worked overtime at night! The silence is incredible. The children really enjoyed being so close to wild animals and feeding them. Security companies regularly patrol the streets, which makes one feel safe. On arrival the stopcock against the house gave problems but Dawn sorted it out within 15 minutes and she called back later to see if everything was ok. We were very impressed with the good service. Will definitely use the place again.

Kompak, met alles wat ons nodig het.

Baie lekker plekkie vir dit wat ons nodig gehad het. Voorstelle: 1. Sitkamermeubels te groot vir die klein ruimte wat daar is. Ouer mense wat sukkel om op te staan kon dit nie gebruik en ons moet die patiostoele in die sitkamer gebruik wat dit baie ongesellig gemaak het, want ons moes rond en bont sit. 2. 'n Rak met hangplek en blad of tafeltjie of bankie om jou tas op neer te sit sal baie handig wees vir die loft. Alles moet op die vloer rond staan. 3. Aparte toilet sal groot aanwins wees. Al negatief: Met ons aankoms moes ons eers die yskas ontdooi en skoonmaak. Ys was omtrent 5 cm aangepak en die yskas was glad nie koud nie. Opsigter kan dalk net toesien dat die yskas nie aangepak is nie. Vrieskompartement was reg.

Compact, with everything we need.

Very nice place for what we needed. Suggestions: 1. Living room furniture too big for the small space there is. Older people who struggle to stand up couldn't use it and we had to use the patio chairs in the living room which made it very unsociable as we had to sit round and round. 2. A shelf with hanging space and a table or bench to put your suitcase on would be very handy for the loft. Everything must stand around on the floor. 3. Separate toilet will be a great asset. All negative: On our arrival we first had to defrost and clean the fridge. Ice was about 5 cm thick and the fridge was not cold at all. Caretaker may only see to it that the fridge is not tackled. Freezer compartment was right.

Thank you for your comments and would like to apologise that the fridge was not found the way you would have liked it, I will ensure that this will not be a reoccurring problem.
