Lekker, gerieflik, netjies, en baie gawe gasheer.

Die huis is goed ingerig met alles wat mens nodig het, insluitend 'n kaggel vir die kouer weer. Die huis het 'n fantastiese uitsig oor die meer as jy op die stoep sit en is geleë naby aan aktiwiteite soos ziplining, perdry, plaaslike winkels en staproetes.

Nice, comfortable, tidy, and very nice host.

The house is well appointed with everything one needs, including a fireplace for the colder weather. The house has a fantastic view of the lake when you sit on the porch and is located close to activities such as ziplining, horse riding, local shops and hiking trails.

Peaceful, good location and clean. Furniture a little outdated.

It was very peaceful at the accommodation and relatively close to walks which usually start at Monk's Cowl car park. It is literally next door to Drakensberg Sun. My only disappointment was that it had no mountain view. It did, however, have a valley and lake view, but I would prefer a mountain view.

Gerieflike verblyf in 'n beeldskone omgewing.

Hierdie blyplek sal ek vir enige iemand aanbeveel. Gerieflik, groot genoeg vir 6 mense. Kan lekker ontspan en het alls wat jy benodig. Mooi uitsig en stapafstand na minstens 2 staproetes. Sal vir seker weer na Birdsong Cottages Nr 9 toe gaan.

We found the accommodation perfect for our needs and very central. The view is awesome.

The cottage needs to have WiFi, the Vodacom signal is not great and the use of WiFi would have assisted especially when you have teenagers. This would make the cottage perfect. We would definitely come back again.

Baie gerieflike akkommodasie in 'n asemrowende omgewing!

Ons was aangenaam verras met Birdsong Kothuis Nr 9, in terme van die uitleg van die huis met oorgenoeg ruimte vir 'n geselskap van 7, beskikbaarheid van buite-braaigeriewe en 'n Jetmaster in die huis, asook ander kombuisgeriewe, en 'n absoluut ideale ligging bokant die Drakensberg Sun met 'n pragtige uitsig oor die meer. Gaste van Bergview Estate (waarin Birdsong Cottage geleë is) kan teen 'n minimale fooi gebruik maak van fasiliteite by Drakensburg Sun, insluitend pragtige staproetes, bote op die meer, visvang, ens. Dit was heerlik stil en rustig in die Estate, en ons het heerlik ontspan. Ons sal dit definitief oorweeg om terug te gaan!

Very comfortable accommodation in a breathtaking setting!

We were pleasantly surprised with Birdsong Kothuis Nr 9, in terms of the layout of the house with enough space for 7 people, availability of outside braai facilities and a Jetmaster inside the house, as well as the kitchen facilities, and an absolute ideal location on top of the Drakensburg Sun with a beautiful view of the lake. Guest of Bergview Estate (where Birdsong Kothuis is located) kan use the facilities of the Drakensburg Sun at a minimal cost, including hiking trails, boats on the lake, fishing, etc. It was peaceful and quiet in the Estate, we relaxed. We will definitely considering coming again!

Pragtige ligging en baie prakties vir 'n groter groep.

Die woning het 'n pragtige uitsig en daar was geen verkeer wat inbreek maak op die stilte nie. Dit sou wel lekker gewees het as die DStv geaktiveer was en ons het gesukkel met die DVD-speler.

Stunning location and very practical for a large group.

The house has a stunning view and there is no traffic to disturb the silence. It would've been nice if the DStv was activated and we struggled with the DVD player.

Rustig.

Birdsong is baie privaat, baie rustig, maar hy kan meubels en matte bietjie vervang - dis oud. Die kothuis kort ook instandhouding soos klein dingetjies wat stukkend is.

Restful.

Birdsong is very private, very quiet, but he could replace the furniture and carpets a bit - it's old. The cottage also needs maintenance such as small things that are broken.

We were welcomed by Charles and enjoyed a lovely stay. The house is well located, well cleaned by Rosie, well-equipped and very comfortable and spacious. It has a nice garden and lovely deck that we - due to the weather - hardly used. We would have loved to stay longer and hope to be back one day.

Heerlik gerus in pragtige natuur.

Baie dankie dat ons in Birdsong 9 kan kuier oor die Kerstyd. Die huis is regtig baie mooi skoon en netjies en baie goed ingerig met alles wat mens nodig het. Die lekker groot houtdek is die ideale kuierplek, ons kleindogter van 2 jaar kon heerlik speel met meer as genoeg spasie. Selfs die potplante laat dit soos jou eie huis voel. Janet, met haar vriendelike geaardheid, het ook baie bygedra sodat ons heerlik vakansie kon hou. Uitsig en natuur was asemrowend. LEKKESLAAP se reëlings was puik en baie vriendelik, baie dankie daarvoor. Sal diens beslis aanbeveel.

Great rest in beautiful nature.

Thank you very much for allowing us to visit Birdsong 9 over the Christmas period. The house is really very nice, clean and tidy and very well furnished with everything you need. The nice large wooden deck is the ideal place to visit, our 2-year-old granddaughter was able to play wonderfully with more than enough space. Even the potted plants make it feel like your own home. Janet, with her friendly nature, also contributed a lot so that we could have a wonderful holiday. View and nature were breathtaking. LEKKESLAAP's arrangements were great and very friendly, thank you very much for that. Will definitely recommend service.

Die uitsig is pragtig en alles is so skoon en gerieflik. Daar was elke oggend iemand om skottelgoed te was, so ons het heerlik gerus.

Groot genoeg vir 3 gesinne, het dit die ideale plek gemaak om te kuier. Die patio is 'n bonus en daar is selfs 'n ekstra eetplek onderdak buite. Daar was selfs ekstra flieks as daar nie genoeg keuses op die TV-kanale is nie, asook 'n hele boekrak vol lekker leesstof. Die 3 badkamers was 'n ekstra bonus.

The view is beautiful and everything is so clean and comfortable. There was someone to wash the dishes every morning, so we had a great rest.

Big enough for 3 families, it made the ideal place to hang out. The patio is a bonus and there is even an extra covered dining area outside. There were even extra movies if there weren't enough choices on the TV channels, as well as a whole bookshelf full of good reading material. The 3 bathrooms were an added bonus.

Great location with magnificent views of valley and mountains

We stayed in Dias no 2 Bergview. The location of the house very high up on the hill gave a great view of the valley with mountains. The house itself was well equipped, clean and well furnished. Although we were made aware of monkey activities we did not encounter any. The owner was very pleasant and accommodating.
