Basiese verblyf. Lekker bed en warm water, maar die plek is baie koud en oud - benodig 'n bietjie TLC. Vriendelike gasvrou.

A memorable stay.

Staying at Calvinia Guesthouse for two nights was the highlight of the most amazing trip in the height of the Flower Season. We felt that we would have liked to stay for a week as the accommodation was not only clean, comfortable and quaint, but also right amid the most amazing flowers. Day trips to villages in the region were also very rewarding. The owner of Calvinia Guesthouse made our stay even more worthwhile as we felt as if we were 'family'. She went way beyond the requirements of an owner of a guesthouse. Her input towards our outings, the walk she took us on, her love and knowledge of the flowers in the Calvinia region and her amazing food was the cherry on the cake for us.

Aaklige ervaring.

Na baie jare se toer en verblyf in 'n groot verskeidenheid gastehuise en vakansieverblyf moet ek ongelukkig vir die eerste keer 'n plek geheel en al afkeur. Ons het vooraf bespreek en amper 'n week voor die tyd ons verblyf betaal omdat ons by verskeie gastehuise oorgeslaap het op ons toer. Miskien lyk kamer 4 wat ons spesifiek oorspronklik bespreek het mooi soos op die fotos, maar kamer 1 wat ons gekry het het meer gevoel soos werkerskwartiere. Ons is ook onmiddellik met ons aankoms om 16:00 aangeraai om iets te ete te kry by OK of Spar en ingelig oor die tye wat hulle sluit. Ons wou braai, maar daar was ander gaste se bagasie in the braai area en moes ons wag tot hulle dit kom haal. Om 19:15 haal die gaste hulle bagasie en teen 19:30 daar weg. Dit was vir ons bietjie laat om te braai omdat ons alreeds baie moeg was na lang dag van reis. Die kamer se meubels, veral stoele, is nie antiek nie, maar eerder oud en verwaarloos. Die kamer het ook 'n ligte ou urine reuk gehad wat geen reukweerder kon weg kry nie. Die ingangsdeur is so laag dat ek my kop 3 keer daarteen gestamp het (ek is 1. 78 m lank so nie erg lank nie). Die "garage" se deur maak uiters moeilik met die hand oop en is eintlik 'n afdak met 'n garage deur wat ook nie kan sluit nie (maak seker waardevolle items is uit voertuig verwyder). Vir die prys is kamer 1 absoluut nie die moeite werd nie en hoop ek ander besoekers het 'n beter ervaring.

Horrible experience.

After many years of touring and staying in a large variety of guest houses and holiday accommodation, I unfortunately have to completely reject a place for the first time. We booked in advance and paid for our accommodation almost a week in advance because we stayed at several guesthouses on our tour. Maybe room 4 that we specifically originally booked looks nice as in the photos, but room 1 that we got felt more like workers quarters. We were also immediately advised upon our arrival at 4pm to get something to eat at OK or Spar and informed of the times they close. We wanted to braai, but there was other guests' luggage in the braai area and we had to wait until they came to collect it. At 19:15 the guests collect their luggage and leave there by 19:30. It was a little late for us to barbecue because we were already very tired after a long day of travel. The room's furniture, especially chairs, are not antique, but rather old and neglected. The room also had a faint stale urine smell that no deodorizer could get rid of. The entrance door is so low that I bumped my head against it 3 times (I'm 1.78 m tall so not terribly tall). The "garage" door is extremely difficult to open by hand and is actually a canopy with a garage door that cannot close either (make sure valuables are removed from vehicle). For the price, room 1 is absolutely not worth it and I hope other visitors have a better experience.

Hartlike verblyf op Calvinia

Ons het heerlik oorgebly by Calvinia Guest House. Die gasvrou, Talitha, was baie gaaf en het moeite gedoen om na ons behoeftes om te sien. Die koste was baie billik en die kamer het meer geriewe gehad as wat ek verwag het. Ons het in kamer een gebly, dit is gerieflik naby aan 'n lekker braaiplek. Dit het 'n mikrogolf, yskas, gasstoof en eetgerei. Die mark in die kerksaal was een van die hoogtepunte van ons naweek, heerlike pannekoek geëet en die plattelandse gasvryheid geniet. Dit is ook die moeite werd om die museum te besoek.

Warm stay on Calvinia

We had a lovely stay at Calvinia Guest House. The hostess, Talitha, was very nice and went out of her way to see to our needs. The cost was very reasonable and the room had more amenities than I expected. We stayed in room one, it is conveniently close to a nice barbecue place. It has a microwave, fridge, gas stove and cutlery. The market in the church hall was one of the highlights of our weekend, eating delicious pancakes and enjoying the rural hospitality. It is also worth visiting the museum.

Ons het onmiddellik tuis gevoel by die gastehuis.

Dit is 'n karaktervolle plek, die gedeelte waar ons geslaap het was skoon en het al die basiese nodighede gehad. Die gasvrou was vriendelik en toeganklik.

Kamer heerlik ruim! In die algemeen goeie waarde vir geld.

My enigste negatiewe kommentaar is: (1) Die ingang is aan die "agterkant" en nie soos op die foto nie. Ou motor-rommel is op die sypaadjie baie na aan die ingang; dit lyk soos 'n skrootwerf. My onmiddellike gedagte was, "waar het ek myself in begewe". Gaan mens egter binne, is jy aangenaam verras - dis 'n ruim eenheid met pragtige ou meubels. (2) Die badkamer het slegs 'n stort.

Room wonderfully spacious! Overall good value for money.

My only negative comments are: (1) The entrance is at the "back" and not as in the photo. Old car debris is on the pavement very close to the entrance; it looks like a scrap yard. My immediate thought was, "what have I gotten myself into". However, when you go inside, you are pleasantly surprised - it's a spacious unit with beautiful old furniture. (2) The bathroom only has a shower.
