Beautiful, comfortable, value for money!

I was only here for one night, but the staff was friendly, the room was comfortable and clean, and the view from the back stoep was beautiful!

Asemrowend.

Alles was goed. Die plek kort 'n zink, 2 plaatstoof, en vir elke woonhuis 'n braaier. Het geen WiFi-wagwoord ontvang nie. Het 'n kamer vir 2 geboek, maar het nog 'n kamer met 2 enkelbeddens gekry.

Breathtaking.

Everything was good. The place needs a sink, 2 plate stoves, and a braai for each house. Did not receive any WiFi password. Booked a room for 2 but got another room with 2 single beds.

Goeie dag,
Dankie vir die resensie. U sal sien u het gevra vir 'n kamer, nie 'n selfsorg-eenheid nie. Selfsorgeenhede is beskikbaar sou u dit bespreek het. U het reeds 'n dubbelkamer ontvang soos versoek is. Enkelkamer is bespreek. WiFi is nie beskikbaar nie. As u die profiel van die gastehuis nagegaan het, dit is vir 'n rustige plaaservaring by ons in die platteland. Soos u genoem het, asemrowend, tuine en ons natuur skoon met ons pragtige bergreeks. Fantastiese uitsig en rustigheid wat net die platteland kan bied. Dankie vir u besoek. Ons maak weer so.

Verblyf by Deo Volente was 'n baie onaangename ondervinding.

Die plek is verwaarloos, vol spinnerakke, lyk asof dit baie lanklaas skoongemaak is en die yskas was vuil.

Staying at Deo Volente was a very unpleasant experience.

The place was neglected, full of cobwebs, looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time and the fridge was dirty.

Convenient and comfortable accommodation.

Lovely setting, beautiful view and close to all amenities. 2 main concerns: no WiFi and no DStv (only a snowy SABC 1, 2 and 3). Very comfortable beds and lovely big shower. Will definitely visit again.

Ek sal dit nie aanbeveel vir besigheidskliënte nie.

Geen MNet nie, kamers het nie TV nie, etc.

Goeie dag,
Daar is 'n groot skerm televisie in die lapa - van 65 vierkant meter - aangresend van 2 slaapkamers met 2 vol badkamers en vol toegeruste kombuis. Daar is 4 buite deure vir een persoon. Ek voel die kommentaar is onregverdig teen R700.00 vir 2 nagte. Lekker dag

Skep asem op 'n werkende plaas met gasvrye eienaars.

Ons sal graag weer daar gaan bly. Die eienaars laat jou baie tuis voel. Die uitsig is baie mooi en 'n mens word deel van die plaasbedrywighede. Die kamers het alles wat nodig is en die feit dat die lapa addisioneel vir ons beskikbaar was, was 'n bonus. 'n Heerlike sorgvrye naweek wat goeie herinneringe oproep.

A breath of fresh air on a working farm with hospitable owners.

We would love to stay there again. The owners made us feel really at home. The view is beautiful and you feel part of the farm activities. The rooms have everything your might need and the fact that the lapa was also available for our use, was a bonus. A lovely, relaxed weekend we will remember fondly.

Basies en teleurstellend.

Alles op die website ens. het baie mooi en oulik gelyk en is ook so beskryf. Op die 12 ha plaas, uitsigte, groen gras ens. ens. Mooi foto's van kamers ens. Nêrens het dit verwys na addisionele verblyf ver van die plaas in 'n klein, ou, basiese huisie in die dorp van Riversdal nie. Dalk iewers iets gesê van apart van gastehuis af, of so iets. So die verwagtinge en die werklikheid was myle verwyderd. Ons het bietjie gekul gevoel aangesien dit wat deur die website en bespreking "belowe" is glad nie was wat ons ontvang het nie.

Basic and disappointing.

Everything looked beautiful and quaint on the website and it is also described in that way. On the 12 hectare farm, views, green grass etc. etc. Beautiful photos of rooms etc. Nowhere was the additional accommodation far from the farm in a small, old, basic little house in Riversdal mentioned. Maybe it said something about separate from the guesthouse or something. So the expectation and the reality were miles apart. We felt a bit cheated since what the website and the booking promised was not delivered.

Goeie dag,
Baie dankie vir terugvoering. Ons het wel gesê dat ons nie beskikbaarheid het by Deo Volente nie en het die dorpswoonstel aanbeveel. Jul was net te dankbaar dat jul verblyf kon kry. Daar is ook uitdruklik gevra in die woonstel of jul tevrede is. Die antwoord was baie tevrede net bly ons kon verblyf bekom. Groete en sterkte.
