Aangename kuiertjie, moet te minste 'n langnaweek daar spandeer.

Heerlike ruim plek, alles wat jy nodig het, bad en binnebraai 'n groot bonus.

We enjoyed the cottage, although the electric blankets didn't all work and the kitchen tap leaked.

Goed ingerig maar vrek koud in die winter!

Baroe House is goed ingerig en gerieflik. Dit sal waarskynlik baie lekker wees gedurende die somer. Ons was daar gedurende die winter, in 'n sneeu storm, en om alles te kroon was die hele dorp sonder elektrisiteit vir ten minste 'n dag. Hierdie ongewone sameloop van omstandighede het Baroe se tekortkominge in skerp fokus gebring. Die huis is bitter koud met geen effektiewe vorm van verwarming nie en is ook nie effektief ingerig vir kragonderbrekings nie. Dit maak die huis 'n vrek koue bestemming in die winter - wanneer Sutherland een van die koudste dorpe in RSA is. Daar is wel asbes muurverwarmers in alle vertrekke, maar die verwarmers is ontwerp vir klein areas en dus uiters oneffektief vir so 'n groot area. Daar is ook 'n binne braai, wat baie goed werk, maar net as 'n braai. 'n Binne braai is nie ontwerp om as kaggel te dien nie, want alle warm lug ontsnap via die skoorsteen. Die huis kan doen met 'n groot kaggel. Kragonderbrekings is deel van ons lewe in RSA. Die enigste voorsorg wat Baroe getref het was 'n gasstofie (wat baie lekker werk!) en 4 olie-lanterns - waarvan een geen olie ingehad het nie. Die 3 olie-lampies was wel romanties, maar glad nie effektief nie, en dit laat die huis baie donker. Daar is vele noodligte spesifiek vir die doel ontwikkel, en vryelik beskikbaar is - die huis kan doen met 'n paar van hulle. Gelukkig was daar baie komberse (beide wol en elektries) wat die koue verdryf het terwyl ons in die kooi was. Dus - Baroe sal 'n lekker bestemming wees in die somer. Maar dis vrek koud in die winter!

Well furnished but damn cold in winter!

Baroe House is well furnished and comfortable. It will probably be very nice during the summer. We were there during the winter, in a snow storm, and to top it all off the whole town was without electricity for at least a day. This unusual confluence of circumstances brought Baroe's shortcomings into sharp focus. The house is bitterly cold with no effective form of heating and is also not effectively set up for power outages. This makes the house a wickedly cold destination in winter - when Sutherland is one of the coldest towns in RSA. There are asbestos wall heaters in all rooms, but the heaters are designed for small areas and therefore extremely ineffective for such a large area. There is also an indoor braai, which works very well, but only as a braai. An indoor braai is not designed to act as a fireplace, as all hot air escapes via the chimney. The house could do with a large fireplace. Power outages are part of our life in RSA. The only precaution Baroe took was a gas stove (which works very well!) and 4 oil lanterns - one of which had no oil in it. The 3 oil lamps were indeed romantic, but not at all effective, and they make the house very dark. There are many emergency lights developed specifically for the purpose, and freely available - the house can do with a few of them. Luckily there were plenty of blankets (both wool and electric) to ward off the chill while we were in the cabin. So - Baroe will be a nice destination in the summer. But it's damn cold in the winter!

Baroe House 's response

Hi Theo,

Ons is trots op ons gradering onder die publiek as een van die beste in die dorp. Ons streef voortdurend na verbetering en waardeer jou insette.

Ons is jammer om te hoor dat jy nie tevrede is nie. Om 'n 5-ster-ervaring te bied met alle geriewe, vereis 'n passende prysstelling. Dit is belangrik om te onthou dat 'n hoër standaard van akkommodasie 'n belegging verg.

Dit mag wees dat Sutherland nie die regte bestemming vir jou is nie, en ons respekteer jou perspektief.

Met vriendelike groete,

Baroe GasteHuis

It was awesome, comfortable.

Comfortable stay. Quiet and relaxing environment. Especially enjoyed the indoor braai. Added bonus was that it snowed, while we were there.

Baie lekker gekuier met binnebraai. Awesome.

Huis is baie netjies en skoon gewees. Groot kamers en kuierarea net so groot. Die enigste nadeel is die parkering. Moet agter mekaar stop en moet heeltyd karre ruil met vertrek.

Had a great time with indoor barbecue. Awesome.

House was very neat and clean. Large rooms and equally large living area. The only downside is the parking. Have to stop one behind the other and have to change cars all the time when leaving.

Vriendelik ontvang. Netjies, mooi en ruim. Die binnebraai sorg vir 'n lekker warm, gesellige atmosfeer teen die koue Sutherland weer.

Sutherland is 'n bucketlist-ding. Doen jouself 'n guns.

Heerlike pragtige verblyf.

Ons het lekker gebly. Die huis was baie mooi ingerig en gemaklik. Omdat ons gesin groot is, het dit net baie duur per nag uitgewerk. Ons was tevrede met die plek.

Lovely beautiful stay.

We had a nice stay. The house was very nicely furnished and comfortable. Because our family is large, it just worked out to be very expensive per night. We were satisfied with the place.
