Dit was wonderlik!

Alles was perfek! Die huisie is so mooi, skoon en netjies. Die berge is asemrowend mooi! Hulle het soveel aktiwiteite vir die kinders aangebied om hulle besig te hou. Dit is regtig 'n moet-blyplek in die berge!

Dit is so wonderlik dat jy ons wye verskeidenheid vermaakgeriewe ook geniet het. Ons vra wel om verskoning vir enige ongerief wat deur die pad veroorsaak word, dit is grootliks te wyte aan ons afgeleë ligging. Ons versoek gaste om asseblief stadig en met omsigtigheid te ry.

Weer was swak, nie veel om te doen as die weer swak is en die paaie is nie rybaar nie, so mens kan nie ander omliggende plekke besoek nie.

Kos is baie lekker, dit was die beste deel van die tydjie daar.

Weather was bad, not much to do when the weather is bad and the roads are not drivable, so one cannot visit other surrounding places.

Food is very good, it was the best part of the time there.

Ontspanne, mooi, gerieflik.

Baie mooi plek, die pad is net baie lelik na die plek toe. Maar dis baie mooi en gerieflik, baie vir kinders om hul mee besig te hou, koffiewinkel kan dalk net later oop bly. Spa is goed en mense baie vriendelik.

Lekker gekuier. Alhoewel dit as 'n selfsorg beskou word, was daar net 'n yskassie en ketel.

Sal graag braai geriewe waardeer het. Ons het in die 1 slaapkamer eenheid gebly. Die krag was af toe ons daar aangekom het en dit het die kaarte sny, om toegang tot die eenheid te kry bemoeilik. Die kliëntediens was nie so goed nie aangesien ons nie duidelikheid oor die kamer nommer (A, B en C) gehad het waar ons bly nie. Indien dit 'n selfsorg is moet dit selfsorg geriewe bied. Daar kan gerus ook aandag gegee word aan die water skade van die buitekantste mure.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Have a nice time. Although considered self-catering, there was only a small fridge and kettle.

Would have appreciated braai facilities. We stayed in the 1 bedroom unit. The power was out when we got there and it cut the cards, making access to the unit difficult. The customer service was not so good as we did not have clarity about the room number (A, B and C) where we are staying. If it is self-catering it must offer self-catering facilities. Attention can also be paid to the water damage of the outer walls.

Verblyf was fantasties - alles anders by Cayley Lodge was skokkend!

Die kamers was ongelooflik mooi en die uitsig ook asemrowend. Die jungle gym by die restaurant area is heeltemal opgevrot en onveilig vir kinders om op te speel. Die restaurant was 'n groot gemors - wag vir 20 minute voor ons gehelp word, wag meer as 40 minute om drinkgoed te kry en wag 1 uur 45 minute vir kos wat regitg nie van goeie gehalte was nie. Skokkend. Sal nie weer wil teruggaan nie.

Stay was fantastic - everything else at Cayley Lodge was shocking!

The rooms were incredibly beautiful and the view also breathtaking. The jungle gym at the restaurant area is completely rotten and unsafe for children to play on. The restaurant was a big mess - waited for 20 minutes before we were helped, waited over 40 minutes to get drinks and waited 1 hour 45 minutes for food which was really not of good quality. Shocking. Would not want to go back again.

Great location and price and facilities.

Facilities were great. Good location and good value for money. Would recommend to friends. The studio that we stayed in was clean and well set out. Towels were not so great, for such a great venue, a better quality bath towel is preferred. The water pressure in the bathroom was terrible. Took nearly 1 hour to run a bath with 5cm of water in it. Also the bath plug did not seal, so I had to use a plastic bag to seal around the plug. Water pressure was so poor couldn't use the shower.

Dear Glynis,

Thank you for your review and it's great to read that you all enjoyed your recent holiday break in the Drakensberg at our resort.

Asemrowende uitsig, moderne interieur en gemaklikste bed.

Ek, my man en 1-jarige het in eenheid 24C gebly vir twee nagte en my skoonouers in 24B wat nie selfsorg-eenhede is. Volgende keer sal ons seker saam in 24A bespreek. Die eenhede is duidelik onlangs gebou en is baie modern. Ons het vroegtydig gereël vir 'n kampeerkot, mens moet net jou eie babamatras saamneem. Die ontbyt wat ingesluit was was puik. Ons sal graag weer by Cayley Lodge gaan bly vir langer om al die aktiwiteite en die dag-spa beter te benut.

My husband and I, and our 1-year-old stayd in unit 24 C for 2 nights and my parents-in-law stayed in unite 24 B, selfs-catering units. Next time we will book 24 A together. The units were built recently and are very modern. We made arrangements beforehand for a camping cot, you just have to take your own mattress. Included breakfast was delicious. We would love to stay at Cayley Lodge again, but longer next time so we can utilize the activities and the day spa.
