Ontspanne en gemaklik.

Dit is 'n pragtige gastehuis met die mooiste uitsig oor die dorp. Pragtige dekor binne en super skoon en netjies en ruik so lekker vars!

Dankie, Thea, jy het uit jou pad gegaan om ons welkom te laat voel. Ons sal definitief weer van julle gastehuis gebruik maak, maar dan vir 'n volle naweek. Dankie ook dat ons bietjie later kon uitgaan met my seun se mediese probleem. Jy is 'n ster!

Wonderlike ervaring.

Gasvrou het ons so welkom laat voel en ons ingelig oor aktiwiteite om te doen in die omgewing. Die plek is goed toegerus met alles wat mens basies nodig het dis skoon en netjies goeie waarde vir geld. Die mooi uitsig oor die dorp. Tydens load shedding is daar ligte wat brand. Sal enige tyd weer kom kuier, het goeie diens ontvang.

My dogter het getrou. Ons hele gesin, ons as ouers en my 4 kinders met hul gades het hier gebly. Pragtige, netjiese afronding van elke kamer. My dogter het in hierdie pragtige surroundings aangetrek. Alles was puik. Thea is baie hulpvaardig en was vinnig daar met 'n antwoord as ons iets wou weet. Dankie. Ons sal vir seker weer kom kuier!

Baie gerieflik, en privaat, baie mooi uitsig, en die gasvrou is baie oplettend.

Die kamers was skoon en netjies, daar was koffie en tee in die kamers en daar was ys in die yskasie. Dit was lekker stil en rustig daar en baie mooi. Ek het oor die algemeen baie lekker gekuier. Ek het baie tuis gevoel.

Goed versorg, skoon en netjies!

Wat 'n oase! Ons reis baie tussen die Noord-Kaap en Kaapstad. Dit was wonderlik om hier oor te slaap aangesien die ligging naby aan Kaapstad is wat afstand perfek vir ons opdeel. Ons beveel die gastehuis ten sterkste aan as jy wil lekker slaap en waarde vir geld verlang.

Goodday Mary,
About the review Cornerstone Guesthouse is not self catering. We've made a exception for you to use the staff kitchen of the guesthouse. We had suggested that you move to another room and you decide to stay. In short, sorry for the inconvenience.

Beste gastehuiservaring in Piketberg.

Ons moet al vir die laaste 5 jaar gereeld in die omgewing oorbly omdat ons kinders in roei regattas by Misverstand Dam deelneem. Hierdie is by verre die beste gastehuis wat ons al by gebly het. Thea verstaan hoe om gaste welkom te laat voel, en die kamers het alles gehad wat ons nodig kon hê.
