Dit was ongelooflik koud.

Die huis is presies wat jy sou verwag. Groot, ouerige huis op die Vrystaatse platteland. En alles was pragtig skoon en netjies. Maar as jy hier wil oorbly, kom in die somer. Dit was ongelooflik koud die nag en vroeg die volgende oggend. Daar was 'n elektriese kombers op een bed, maar ons het nie geweet hoe die gasverwarmer in die eetkamer werk nie. Wees ook gewaarsku, dis 'n piepklein dorpie en die moontlikhede vir iewers eet is baie beperk. Maar baie vriendelike mense, veral Essie wat vir ons oopgesluit het.

It was incredibly cold.

The house is exactly what you would expect. Large, old house in the Free State countryside. And everything was beautifully clean and tidy. But if you want to stay here, come in the summer. It was incredibly cold that night and early the next morning. There was an electric blanket on one bed but we didn't know how the gas heater in the dining room worked. Also be warned, it's a tiny town and the possibilities for somewhere to eat are very limited. But very friendly people, especially Essie who opened for us.

Many thanks for the positive feedback. Yes, the cold of the Free State is certainly unique! The alarm system has been fixed and is now in working order. I will ask the manager to show future guests how to operate the gas heater. As this is a self-catering house, you have the ability to prepare your own meals, especially since restaurant options in town are limited. There's definitely nothing available on a Sunday afternoon!

Daar is alles wat 'n mens benodig.

Baie gemaklik met alles wat 'n mens benodig en meer. Die huis is ruim en gemaklik gemeubileer. Die badkamer is goed uitgelê met 'n bad en 'n baie lekker stort. Al wat gepla het, is die dubbelbed in een van die kamers wat redelik ongemaklik is. Dit is definitief tyd vir 'n plaasvervanger! Die toegangshek is ook baie nou, en groter sportnutsvoertuie sal nie deur die hek kan ry nie.

There is everything one needs.

Very comfortable with everything one needs and more. The house is spacious and comfortably furnished. The bathroom is well laid out with a bath and a very nice shower. All that bothered is the double bed in one of the rooms which is quite uncomfortable. It's definitely time for a replacement! The entrance gate is also very narrow, and larger SUVs will not be able to drive through the gate.

Outydse plaassjarme.

Hierdie woning is geensins modern nie, maar is tot op die been toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het. Met genoeg ruimte en baie speelgoed is dit ideaal vir 'n gesin met klein kinders. Met 'n knus braai-area, het dit die sonsonder braai heel aangenaam gemaak. Dankie Bloekomhuis.

Old fashioned farm charm.

This home is by no means modern, but is fully equipped with everything you need. With enough space and lots of toys, it is ideal for a family with small children. With a cozy braai area, it made the sunless braai very pleasant. Thank you Bloekomhuis.

Lekker gemaklike oornagplek vir 'n gesin met kinders.

Regte ou huisie in 'n klein dorpie. Niks fênsie nie, maar ons het so gemaklik geslaap met alles wat ons nodig gehad het. Ideaal vir 'n gesin met kinders. Daar is selfs lekker speelgoed vir die kinders, so lekker na 'n lang dag se ry. Veilige erf waar kinders ook lekker kan rondbeweeg en speel. Regtig waarde vir geld, baie spasie vir almal om gemaklik te wees. Ons sal weer daar slaap.

Nice and comfortable place to stay for a family with children.

Real old house in a small town. Nothing fancy, but we slept so comfortably with everything we needed. Ideal for a family with children. There are even nice toys for the children, so nice after a long day of driving. Safe yard where children can also move around and play. Really value for money, plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable. We will sleep there again.

Definitief nie wat omns verwag het nie.

'n Skok vir die oog. As dit nie laat en reënerig was nie het ons ander plek gesoek! Die oggend was daar nie water nie. Al was die dorp se water af het niemand die moeite gedoen om ons in kennis te stel nie.

Definitely not what everyone expected.

A shock to the eye. If it wasn't late and rainy we would have looked for another place! In the morning there was no water. Even though the town's water was off, no one bothered to notify us.

Goeiedag June
Ek is baie geskok oor die resensie. Daar is 'n 5000 liter Jojo tank. Dit kan nie mootlik wees dat daar nie water was nie.
