Comfortable lovely stay.

Stay was lovely. No WiFi available. Geyser overflowed, which we had to turn off as it leaked all night. Hester was left on in the bedroom behind the cupboard, which explains why we were so hot. Otherwise, lovely stay.

Teleurstellend die keer waar vorige kere fantasties was.

Dullstroom is fantasties. Kaggel in sitkamer het nie. Hul het kom regmaak maar brand nie langer as 5 min nie. Laaste 2 dae het geen gas goed gewerk nie dink gas was klaar. Ou vuil baba bottel onder koffie tafel gekry. WiFi het ook nie gewerk eerste paar dae nie. Borde in kas was nog olierig van vorige besoekers. Stort spuit water teen dak en na buite. Alarm wat 24/7 afgaan so kan nie slaap nie. Waterlek buite wat spuit en raas nie drip nie. Was regtig teleurgestel die keer.

Disappointing the time where previous times were fantastic.

Dullstroom is fantastic. Fireplace in living room does not. They came to fix it but it doesn't burn for more than 5 minutes. Last 2 days no gas worked well think gas was finished. Old dirty baby bottle found under coffee table. WiFi also didn't work first few days. Plates in cupboard were still oily from previous visitors. Shower sprays water on roof and outside. Alarm going off 24/7 so can't sleep. Water leak outside that sprays and makes noise not dripping. Was really disappointed this time.

Hi Gerhard, ons is baie jammer om te hoor dat jou laaste verblyf by Chritchley Hackle Lodge nie aan jou vereistes voldoen het nie. Ons het ongelukkig 'n part op die een kaggel gehad wat onklaar geraak het, en a.g.v. ons gaste se veiligheid besluit om die kaggel ondiensbaar te maak. Ons het wel die kaggel dadelik reg gemaak toe die part op gedaag het vanaf Johannesburg, en ons het ook vir jou 'n ekstra aand gratis gegee vir jou ongerief. Ons sal alles in ons vermoë doen om ons gaste veilig en welkom te laat voel, en hulle verblyf so aangenaam as moontlik te maak. Dit reflekteer op al die positiewe terugvoer en reviews wat ons gereeld van ons gaste ontvang. Manager Cottage Chritchley Hackle Lodge

Gerieflike akommodasie naby Dullstroom se hoofstraat.

Skoon en gerieflik. Ongelukkig het die DStv nie gewerk nie en met die reënweer was dit baie teleurstellend. Die ligging van die skottel kan gerus na gekyk word.

Comfortable accommodation close to Dullstroom's main street.

Clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, the DStv was not working and with the rainy weather it was very disappointing. The location of the dish can be looked at.

Goed toegerus en sentraal, baie netjies met die gerief van die restaurant op jou voorstoep.

Die verblyf was besonder gemaklik met 'n goed toegeruste kombuis en die opsie om letterlik by jou voordeur uit te stap na die restaurant 'n paar tree weg. Alles wat 'n mens wil besigtig en besoek in Dullstroom is naby aan Critchley Hackle en dit het ons tyd hier 'n goeie en onvergeetlike ervaring gemaak.

Well equipped, central, neat, convenience of restaurant right on your doorstep.

Very comfortable with well equipped kitchen and the option of merely walking out the door a few steps to the restaurant. Everything in Dullstroom you'd want to visit is close by and this made our stay memorable.

Goeie waarde vir geld.

Aangenaam verras gewees. Goed geleë. Baie goed toegerus. Loop afstand van dorp en restaurant op voorstoep, baie gerieflik. Teëlvloere is pragtig maar baie koud. Die warm komberse en verwarmers het opgemaak daarvoor.

Pleasantly surprised. Well located. Very well-equipped. Walking away from village and restaurant at the front door, very convenient. Tile floors are beautiful but very cold. The warm blankets and heaters made up for it.

Romanties! En rus en vrede.

Ek sal die plek vir enige iemand aanbeveel. Dit is een van die beste plekke waar ons nog was. Dit voel asof jy by die huis is.

Die huisie is sentraal geleë en die dorpie kan te voet besigtig word. Die huisie is pragtig gemeubileer en baie snoesig.

Centrally located near Dulstoom village.

We had a nice stay but not up to standard for the price we paid. The lighting in Cottage was not very good. The shower's water pressure was very weak and it was not very clean. The oven was also dirty.

Ietwat teleurstellend.

Prys is 'n "overkill". Prys te duur vir 'n eenheid wat slegs 1 badkamer (swak gediens), geen ordentlike braaigeriewe asook beligting het nie.

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

Somewhat disappointing.

Price is an overkill. Price too expensive for a unit that only has 1 bathroom (poorly serviced), no proper braai facilities as well as lighting.

The lodge was very quiet but we rested wonderfully.

The place was very neat and clean. Children had a great time playing at pond. Felt safe but did not see any security/guards on site.
