Dear Annette - your heading is 'Magic', and that is exactly what you are - there are no words to describe how we feel after this beautiful feedback. You arrived in Sutherland amidst the worst winter weather we experienced since 2017, and still, you enjoyed your visit to the fullest. To have been there for you from Gariep Dam till you entered Sutherland, was nothing more than a great pleasure. The safety of our guests is critical to us. Thank you for your beautiful feedback, and know that you will always be welcome at Die Heks se Huis.

We enjoyed the visit!
We had no electricity for a day. Of course you can't blame anyone, but Sutherland was freezing cold, soaking wet and very muddy. Just a suggestion - throw a decent rug at the front door where the worst wet and muddy feet can be wiped off. The towel placed there is too thin. Maybe carry large stones from the parking area to the rooms' doors - our shoes and socks were soaking wet! A kettle to make hot water on the fire would also be nice! In contrast to the weather, the reception was warm and friendly. We felt welcome and had a great stay. Next time we will visit in the summer! Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Die Heks se Huis 's response
Beste Elzabe - baie dankie vir julle terugvoer - ons waardeer dit opreg. Ek wil egter graag die volgende aan julle noem :
1. In Sutherland sal geen plek sonder stof wees nie, maak nie saak hoeveel keer jy skoonmaak nie. Ons dames maak elke dag alle plekke skoon, maar teen die tyd wat gaste opdaag, is daar weer stof op die oppervlakke. Ek is seker julle het opgelet dat al ons paaie grondpaaie is, en dat die wind gereeld stof walms opwaai.
2. Die skottelgoedwasser word nie egreeld gebruik nie - meeste gaste gaan eet uit - en word dit dus net met 'n klam lappie skoon gevee - baie dankie egter dat jy genoem het dit was vuil - ons sal let daarop.

Dear Nicole, thank you so much for taking the time to review your recent stay with us - we appreciate your feedback. From our side:
1. We are glad you had a peaceful stay and enjoyed your visit to Sutherland.
2. The guests before your arrival checked out the morning of the day you checked in. The house was thoroughly cleaned. We have an ongoing challenge with the dust, however. As you would have noticed, all roads surrounding us are gravel roads, and with the strong winds that we have, it is just not always possible to keep anything dust-free after cleaning in the mornings - we do apologise though.
3. We use insecticide every time we clean, but do not leave it there, as guests tend to pack it in when they leave. Had you asked, we would have gladly sent the cleaner to assist with the ants.

Didn't sleep well.
Our hostess deserves full marks for excellent service. She is knowledgeable about the area and extremely helpful and friendly. As for the accommodation, it was less good. The unit was dusty. We had to clean the mirror first and there was a dripping shower faucet that we turned on tightly but continued to drip. The door to the bathroom doesn't close nearly as tightly, so the dripping bothered us a lot. At least the beds had clean linen, but oh, that dripping shower! Our stay was just after a big storm damaged electrical services over a large part of the Karoo. There was no electricity. No gas either. So, no meal prepared and no coffee made. With the amount of sunny and cloudless days in Sutherland, one would certainly expect solar panels for hot water and power.

Die Heks se Huis 's response
Beste Oscar, baie dankie vir julle terugvoer. Net in kort:
1. Baie dankie vir die komplimente oor die gasvrou.
2. Sutherland is 'n klein Karoo dorpie met grondpaaie, en dit is net nie menslik moontlik om huise ens stofvry te hou nie, al probeer ons ook hoe hard. Soos julle gesien het, is daar 3 grondpaaie wat ons kothuise omring.
3. Soos jy tereg gesê het - 'ten minste was die linne skoon.' Dit is sekerlik 'n bewys dat die kothuis wel behoorlik skoongemaak is voor julle aankoms.
4. Die probleem met die krag is ongelukkig iets wat ons glad nie voorsien of verwag het nie. Wat sonpanele aanbetref, is dit ongelukkig nie finansieel moontlik om te doen nie, en doen ons die beste wat ons kan om gaste te akkommodeer tydens hierdie kraglose tydperk. Die trokke wat gas na ons dorpie vervoer, kon ongelukkig nie deurkom agv die skade op die pad, maar ons was intussen gelukkig genoeg om so bietjie gas op die dorp te kon ontvang.
Ek vertrou dat julle bovermelde in 'n ander perspektief sal sien, en sal besef dat Sutherland (en ander dorpe) tans deur 'n baie moeilike tyd gaan. Dit is vir ons wat permanent hier woon nie maklik nie, maar ons byt vas en bly positief. Dit is al wat ons van gaste verwag. Vanweë die gebrek aan sein is dit ook 'n probleem om gaste te kontak en vir hulle om ons te kontak.

Good day, Peter, thank you for your feedback - we appreciate it. We are sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay in Sutherland. If there were anything we could do, we would have, but surely you did notice the absence of tar roads in our town, the continuous rain, etc.? SALT, the big telescope, advised that we should not use sharp lights, as this causes light pollution - hence the softer lights in our cottages. When you reported the blocked drain, we acted on that immediately.

No, there is definitely room for improvement regarding cleanliness. The old towel lying on the floor as a mat for dirty feet by the door has more dust on it than the dust street in front of the road. Kitchen chair cushions are dirty and dusty. We realize it's a rural town. Don't compare it to bigger places! But slept in Ladismith at a neat country guest house.

Dot, baie dankie vir jou terugvoer - ons waardeer dit. Dit mag dalk goed wees as mense nie vergelykings tref tussen plekke nie. Sutherland is beslis nie Ladysmith probeer ons uiterste bes om gaste gelukkig en tevrede te hou, maar besef ook dat mens nooit almal gelukkig sal hou nie. Ons is dus gelukkig met die 9/10 gaste wat 'n lieflike terugvoer gee, en hulle tyd by ons geniet. Sutherland is en sal altyd uitdagings hê, vir ons as inwoners en ook vir almal wat ons besoek.
As ek kyk na die punte wat jy toegeken het, kan ek maar net wonder:
* Location 1 = terwyl ons kothuise in die middel van die dorp en loopafstand van alles af is. Waar kry mens 'n beter location as dit?
* Security 1 = Gaste se voertuie staan by die kothuise / die erf is omhein en daar is 'n hek wat toegemaak kan word.
* Customer service 2 = Daar is nie 'n beter gasvrou as Amanda nie. Alle gaste word persoonlik verwelkom en ingeboek, ongeag die tyd van die dag / nag.

Warm and welcoming.
We only spent one night there and it was pleasant. The location was very good. There were 3 entrance gates but we didn't know that and the location link took us to the wrong one. Maybe they should indicate it better and put an indication on the gates themselves, because when I called and asked them which one I was at, I didn't know what to say. However, we were warmly received and I like the information library about attractions and activities that was in the cottage. We were provided with regular tea and coffee bags, but would have preferred rooibos tea as well. Additionally, a small container of salt and pepper would have been welcome. Unfortunately, the pots, pans and crockery were quite dusty and we had to wash them before we could cook. They may need to consider putting doors on or washing the kitchen contents the morning before check-in. Otherwise everything was good.

Neat, clean, all basics provided. My personal feeling is that there is far too much of a fuss made about this place. There are quite a few other options that can certainly be considered. Photos make the place look beautifully light, but lighting inside is extremely poor. The woman you receive talks far too much, and tries to convince you not to eat at the Boorgat. We luckily followed our own heads, and both the food and service were excellent!

I was disappointed, I wasn't expecting luxury, and was looking forward to a nice little house, with atmosphere. Unfortunately the place was not very clean, the boiler was very dirty, on the outside so it had nothing to do with lime or anything like that. The sink was dirty and full of ants, The bathroom didn't feel clean either. I would appreciate it if you could send the message privately to the management so that they realize cleanliness is not negotiable.

Great stay in Sutherland.
Small, distant towns sometimes yield unpleasant surprises when it comes to your stay. Not The Witch's House! It is large, comfortable, incredibly beautiful and a lovely home away from home when you come to visit Sutherland. No TV/WiFi (yay, said this mom). All I missed was a coffee dipper (French press), but apparently something like that is on the way. In the meantime, there is good coffee at the small observatory. Take a flashlight with you (there is no outside light, and you come back from stargazing in the dark), as well as good mosquito repellent. There is a large fireplace, small stove and coal stove in the house, plus warm duvets and electric blankets in the rooms - I believe it must be a lovely adventure in the winter.

Disillusioned by the satanic references and signs in and around the premises.
From a tourism accommodation perspective there is little to fault with The Witch's House. However, what is important, especially for Christian travelers, is that this is really a witch's house full of satanic signs and symbols. The public can be warned or at least informed.

Our family of 4 stayed 2 nights in the Amethyst cottage.
The artwork and carpets in the house are striking. It is by far one of the most beautiful self-catering units we have stayed in. It is also much more spacious than it appears in the photos. Unfortunately, there were snags, e.g. pots were unusable (at least Amanda helped out with one when we asked), there is only one bedside table by the double bed, the seats of the upholstered chairs need cleaning and the only bedside lamp in the second bedroom does not work. There is also only one electric blanket on the double bed and a fireplace in the living room. Furthermore, there are no electric blankets on the single beds and no heaters either. And that's Sutherland. During load shedding it was dark early and we could do with a candle or light in the kitchen.

Beste Nadia en gesin, baie dankie vir julle terugvoer en ook die punte soos uitgewys.
Met beurtkrag wat 'n redelik algemene situasie in die land is, het ons aangeneem dat gaste op die pad 'n lig of flitslig sou saam neem. Soos ons aan al ons gaste noem, moet gaste nie huiwer om te vra, sou hulle enige iets benodig nie.
Die pot situasie was onmiddelik op gereageer, en kon ons julle uithelp. Ons het reeds die potte verwyder en sal dit vervang.
As julle na die hoofslaapkamer se opset kyk, sal julle sien dat daar nie spasie is vir 'n tweede bedkassie teen die hangkas nie.
Ons probeer alle gaste tydens arrivering so volledig moontlik inlig, maar vind daarna dat gaste van die inligting gemis het. Weereens, alle gaste is enige tyd welkom om ons te kontak wat ook op die perseel woon, indien daar enige iets is wat hulle wil weet, vra of benodig. Ons verkies dat gaste ons direk kontak terwyl hulle nog by ons is, sodat alles dadelik aangespreek kan word.
Vriendelike Groete,
Marita

Beste Karen, baie dankie vir julle terugvoer.
Alle elektriese komberse word nagegaan sodra gaste uitboek, en het ons gevind dat die elektriese kombers op die koningingroottee bed in Amethyst wel werk. Daar is hitte kontrole skakelaars aan beide kante van die kombers. As slegs 1 aangeskakel is, sal net daardie helfte van die kombers warm word.
Die driekwart beddens in die ander 2 slaapkamers het almal gansveer duvets plus 'n addissionele warm kombers.
Aangesien beurtkrag landswyd is, aanvaar ons dat gaste met flitse ens reis, maar indien nie, nader gaste ons wel vir 'n lampie of 'n kerse.
Die uiteensetting van die huis, wat daar is en wat nie, word baie duidelik op alle besprekings platforms aangedui, en sou gaste steeds onseker wees, kontak hulle ons om seker te maak. As gaste op 'n besprekings platform bespreek, aanvaar ons dat hulle na ons Kothuise gaan kyk het, en daarom die bespreking doen.
Ons verskaf 'n beginpak hout, en raai gaste aan om ekstra hout saam te bring of plaaslik te koop indien hulle meer hout of 'n groter vuur wil he.
Dit is deel van ons verwelkoming van gaste om al hierdie inligting aan gaste oor te dra. Indien ons enige iets gemis het, word alle gaste gevra om ons dadelik te kontak, hetsy per telefoon of om by ons Kothuis aan te kom. Ons is enige tyd beskikbaar vir ons gaste, want dit is deel vd diens wat ons lewer.
Ek vertrou dat jy bg sal verstaan, en dat dit jou kommentaar beantwoord.

Baie dankie vir julle terugvoer re julle verbly by Die Heks se Huis en besoek aan Sutherland.
Net ter verduideliking rakende die punte wat genoem is:
1. Sutherland is n klein Karoo dorpie met stof/grond paaie (slegs die hoofstraat is geteer) - ongelukkig sal ons altyd n stryd voer met stof, ongeag hoeveel maal n dag ons afstof en uitvee. Soos julle sou gesien het, word Die Heks se Huis omring deur ten minste 3 stof/grondpaaie. Met die wind wat so gereeld waai, is dit ook n reuse taak om die stof te probeer wen. Ons stof en vee all Kothuise ten minste 3 x p/dag uit, om te probeer verseker dat ons gaste so stofloos moontlik by ons kan kuier
2. Ons prys is die algemen prys p/kothuis of p/persoon wat in die omgewing gevra word - aangesien ons maar slegs 2 maande se werklike somer het, het ons gevoel is lugverkoeling nie nodig nie, aangesien die Kothuise almal in die namiddag in skadu staan, maar het ons waaiers vir diegene wat dalk n luggie oor hulle soek
3. Ons het juis teen Wi-Fi besluit omdat sein in die omgewing maar nie baie goed is nie, en ons in die verlede baie geld daaraan spandeer het (vir die kantoor) net om te vind dat dit selde of ooit werk. Verder is ons gevoel dat gaste wat in die Karoo kom kuier, liewer die geleenthied gegun moet word om te gesels, plekkies te besoek, eerder as om soveel tyd aan selfone ens te spandeer - daar is soveel wat hier en in die omgewing gedoen kan word.
4. Daar is 5lt drinkwater beskikbaar in elke Kothuis, maar nie almal verkies yskaskoue water nie - gaste wat koue water soek, plaas self die 5lt water in die yskas. Dit is ongelukkig nie altyd moontlik om elke individu gelukkig te hou nie - ons probeer egter ons uiterste bes om almal 'n Karoo ervaring te gee.

Beste Monique - baie dankie vir jou terugvoer :
1. Alle Kothuise word op n daaglikse basis skoongemaak, of daar gaste bespreek is of nie. Ongelukkig is Sutherland n dorpie met baie en sterk wind en grondpaaie, wat altyd huise, ens met stof laat.
2. Die spesifieke Kothuis wat jy bespreek het, het vir ongeveer 3 dae voor julle bespreking geen gaste gehad nie, en was die yskas dus nie gebruik nie - yskaste word daagliks uitgewas aangesien load shedding veroorsaak dat die vries gedeelte smelt en dan water in die yskassie laat - daarom word dit elke dag skoon en droog gevee
3. Alle linne, handdoeke en badmatte word elke keer vervang wanneer gaste uitboek - geen badmat ens van vorige gaste word weer vir die volgende gaste gebruik nie

Good location, and friendly reception.
It was immediately noticeable that the house smelled of old smoke and soot when we walked in. Amanda received us kindly and advised us to go buy wood and make a fire in the fireplace (Die Karoo TV). We also made a fire that night, but it was a big mistake. The chimney doesn't smoke at all and we almost suffocated. In the end I had to open the door and window and throw the burning wood outside with the braai tongs. We then just slept in a freezing cold room with the overpowering smell of smoke. The cottage is uninhabitable as it currently is if you would dare to light a fire in the fireplace. The shower spills all over the bathroom floor and the faucets over the small sink cause most of the water to end up on the floor when you try to wash your face. All the hot taps are on the wrong side.

Beste David, baie dankie vir jou terugvoer.
Alle kaggels en skoorstene is getoets voordat die Kothuise oopgestel is om gaste te ontvang. Ongelukkig speel die sterkte van die wind 'n groot rol wanneer kaggels aangesteek word, menende dat die kaggel die een oomblik 100% reg brand en die volgende oomblik druk die wind in die skoorsteen af. Ons is altyd bereid en gewillig om gaste wat so iets ondervind te gaan help. Die Kothuis is al deur baie verskillende gaste bespreek, en 9 uit 10 dui aan dat die skoorsteen en kaggel wel reg en goed werk.
Die krane sal ons merk met verskillende kleure om warm en koue water aan te dui.
Die badkamers is so gebou dat gaste met liggamsgebreke makliker daar kan beweeg. Ons het al heelwat rolstoel gaste en gaste wat met die hulp van krukke oor die weg kom ontvang, en die badkamers maak dit vir hulle makliker om sonder hulp by alles uit te kom.
As water uit die stort of die wasbakkie oorspat, is ons altyd reg en gereed om dit te gaan opdroog, sou gaste ons vra.
Verder is ons altyd beskikbaar indien gaste enige probleme ondervind, aangesien ons ook op die perseel woon. Dit is 'n uitnodiging wat ons aan alle gaste rig, en indien ons iets sou uitlaat of vergeet, word gaste genooi om ons dadelik te kontak vir bystand.

Beste Sandra, baie dankie vir jou bespreking en resensie.
Amanda wat al ons gaste inklok, het nog altyd net goeie terugvoering gekry omdat sy baie inligting deel met die gaste rakende die dorp.
Ons beveel nie slegs vir Jurg Wagenaar aan nie, maar ook die Sutherland Planetarium, en die keuse bly die gas sin. Ons kry nooit swak resensies oor Jurg se sterrekyk nie, en het ek egter die 25ste Junie reeds vir hom vertel dat julle ongelukkig was. Sy terugvoering aan my was dat dit vir 4 dae voor die aand van 24 Junie gereen het en was die douvlak hoog. Daar is ook aan al die gaste verduidelik dat hy op die betrokke aand net die skerp voorwerpe sal kan wys. Rakende vrae wat hy nie wou of kon beantwoord, persoonlik weet ek dat Jurg altyd al die gaste met baie entosiasme beantwoord.
Wat die parkering betref, ons probeer elke jaar gruis inry, a.g.v. die groot modder probleem wanneer dit reen en sneeu.
Ek is so bly dat die beddens reg was, aangesien dit blyk dat die balans van die items alles nie volgens jou smaak was nie. Elke bed het wel 'n bedmat voor die bed en daar is altyd 'n stortmat by die stort.
Voel gerus vry om my direk te kontak indien jy enige verdere vrae of probleme het.

Dear Robert, thank you for your feedback. It has been noted and was paid attention to. Room service is not included, as per our website and booking site, but you could have asked for that to be included as the Host informed you during check-in, that we reside on the premises, and are at guests' disposal any time they need something.

Price is good but you get what you pay for. Shower head leaking. Owner sends someone to dry the floor, but the tap keeps leaking. Drip, drip, drip, all night. Well, warm blankets, but the room is freezing cold. Fireplace is not going to warm the place. I had already forgotten how cold a cement floor is. Try to find other accommodation first.

Beste Johan, baie dankie vir jou terugvoer - sien asb ons kommentaar :
1. Die stortkop/kraan is onmiddelik herstel - sulke dinge gebeur maar, en kan ons nie altyd n lekkende kraan voorspel nie. Baie dankie dat jy dit onder ons aandag gebring het
2. Jy sal verbaas wees hoe warm die kaggel wel die Kotuise maak indien die vuur reeds vroeg middag aangesteek word - alle kaggels is getoets en is gevind dat dit wel die Kothuise verwarm. Ons het al baie gaste gedurende die winter ontvang wat dit wel kan beaam
Baie Dankie,

Cute cozy accommodation.
There was constant communication and we were warmly welcomed. There was a problem with the town's water, but the owners provided more than enough and informed us thoroughly what was for what. The houses were clean, warm and tidy inside walking distance from everything. Very well equipped! I was introduced to a jogging route to be able to see the most beautiful Karoo sunrise over the town! Definitely worth it, we'll see you again!

Cute, neat, best location accommodation
Wow where do I start, from my emails to our meeting Marita and Amanda were just wonderful. We immediately felt welcome. Amanda informed us a little about Sutherland and from there we were hardly ever at our cottage, went exploring everything. The accommodation was very clean and tidy there is nothing that I would like, everything is there that you need. Our queen size bed that they arranged for us was so comfortable and the bedding was so soft that when you lay down you almost didn't want to get up. Next time we come we will use the electric blanket, but it was too hot this weekend. The toilet and shower were comfortable and clean with nice big towels and the water restriction didn't bother us at all as we were informed ahead of time with booking so we did what we had to before the water was turned off. And the water was always boiling hot. The hostess put down a 5 l jug of water for us to drink or for coffee and also water for toilet flushing in the bathroom. The wood was already nicely packed for us in the fireplace and we sat around the fire and barbecued (meat of course from Paulsen Slaghuis you can taste those Karoo bushes in the meat) inside your own little house. Outside there is also a nice large braai area. We scooped up the ashes the next morning and threw them away and nothing smelled of fire or smoke. Your vehicle was safe. The location of the accommodation is also close to everything, the Planetarium is right in front of the house so you could walk around and was very safe to walk. We will definitely come back in the winter and will book again at Die Heks se Huis. Thanks again Marita and Amanda you will definitely see us again. We would recommend you to anyone. Greetings and love Tertia and James.

Verder is ons bly dat jy jou verjaardag hier in die rustigheid van die Karoo kon kom vier - baie geluk ook daarmee - mag jy sommer nog baie jare vir almal gespaar bly.

We had a good night's sleep; it was cold, but the room was lovely and warm. Electric blankets, lovely down duvets and, of course, the nicest fireplace where you could also braai. The best, however, was that it was right next to the planetarium and we walked there for stargazing. It felt safe to walk back 10:00 at night. The hostess gave us a friendly welcome and told us about everything on offer in Sutherland. Thank you!

Cute, comfortable, clean accommodation.
We stayed in Artemis, it was a semi-attached self-catering unit at the very end and very private. Our unit consisted of 2 single beds with electric blankets on them, as well as very good quality white linen. The electric blankets were a nice treat and kept us warm with the cold from the snow. There is also a lovely large indoor braai/fireplace which we used to grill our meat as well as to keep the unit warm. Wood was provided for your first fire. A table and chairs to eat at, fridge, 2 easy chairs in front of the fireplace, microwave oven, fridge and a two plate gas unit (which we didn't use), kettle, as well as the necessary plates, cups, cutlery etc. to make it self-catering. The bathroom consisted of a toilet, sink and a shower. The water was soon deliciously warm when you showered. Water was only available at certain times, but the hostess provided drinking water and water for toilet flushing. The hostess was very friendly and WhatsApped us directions in advance, so you could easily find the accommodation. They are also dog friendly and accommodated our puppies. We were lucky to have snow the 2 days we were there and we really enjoyed it, it was beautiful. The accommodation was good and made your stay convenient and comfortable. There was also secure parking for your car. We can recommend Die Heks se Huis with certainty. We will stay there again, thank you to Die Heks se Huis for your friendly service.

Beste Adri, baie dankie vir julle baie mooi en positiewe terugvoer, dit word uit die hart waardeer. Wat jou voorstelle aanbetref, net die volgende:
1. Ons het nie elektriese komberse daar nie, want die duvets is 100% gans/donsveer en die Jetmaster se kaggel pyp loop deur die loft slaapkamer, wat dit dan heerlik warm maak in die winter.
2. Stort deur : aangesien Sutherland so ver van alles af is, moet ons alles vd Kaap af bestel, en dis maar altyd n probleem om iemand te kry wat so iets reg kan kom insit, maar ons neem beslis kennis, en sal dit in die toekoms baie sterk oorgwee.
Ons is ook baie bly julle het julle besoek aan Sutherland en verblyf by Die Heks se Huis geniet.

Stargazing costs R150 pp. A family of 4 pays R600, and the money is taken without blushing. Been there done that. I left R2200.00 in Sutherland for a night's stay. Too expensive.

The hostess, Amanda, was very good and helped us very well with directions and with our check-in at the Witch's House. The fireplace was unfortunately problematic, and we asked about it, but the wind was blamed, I'm sure the wind must blow often, so I recommend they look at the fireplace? We struggled with an awful lot of smoke, and we didn't even light the fireplace the second night. The rest was very good, but basic.

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer :
1. Ons pryse is omtrent die laagste in Sutherland, en doen ons gereeld navorsing om te verseker dat ons Kothuise nie "oorprys" is nie. Dit is die standaard prys vir die totale Kothuis.
2. Wat die wasbakke ens aanbetref, is dit vir ons vreemd dat dit "vuil" was, want hierdie is die 1ste klagte wat ons omtrent "vuil wasbak en stort" ontvag. Ons kan julle verseker dat die totale Kothuis elke dag behoorlik skoongemaak en ontsmet word (selfs al was daar geen gaste in nie).
3. Daar is matjies by elke bed en ook voor die kaggel, wat ons voel voldoende is.
4. Alle elektriese komberse word elke dag getoets nadat gaste uitgeboek het, om te verseker dat dit werk. Gaste wat n probleem ondervind met hulle elektriese komberse (of enige iets anders in die Kothuise), kontak ons gewoonlik, en gaan ons onmiddelik om hulle te help. Dit het al gebeur dat die komberse by die muurprop af was, en het ons die gaste dan gaan help.
Alle gaste het ons kontak nommer, en word hulle uitgenooi om ons onmiddelik te kontak indien daar enige probleem by die Kothuise is. In julle geval, is ons nie gekontak oor bogenoemde nie, en was ons dus totaal onbewus daarvan.

2. Wat die hooikoors aanbetref is dit die stof en stuifmeel in Sutherland dorp, en sukkel ons maar almal met hooikoors en sinus vanwee die seisoen en die droogte. Die strate is nie geteer nie, wat dit soms net erger maak - die huis as sulks word so stofvry as moontlik gehou

Well equipped and nice and warm.
The house is very well equipped, clean and tidy. We made good use of the fireplace and the wood provided. The bedding is nice and warm and we didn't get cold, even though it was freezing outside. The beds in the attic are not for everyone, especially tall people have to walk around hunched up there to avoid bumping their heads. There is also only one power point upstairs and a bedside light will help a lot if you have to go to the toilet at night (which is downstairs). The light switch is by the stairs.

Very disappointed in the town, the people not very friendly with visitor.
Only after you chat with some of the people, they are more approachable. Went out of our way to get out there and spend a few rand in town, if I stayed there I would be a lot friendlier! You are also uninformed about the environment and SALT is the biggest joke. Can do proper tours and inform the staff and the townspeople about it. All that is nice is the pub about 10 km out of town, at the old Toll Gate. Tjol's Pub is an experience. The Witch's House is sifted, as in dirt. Shower curtain is dirty and broken, to name just one thing, didn't even want to try showering in that place! Probably one of the worst guesthouses we have ever stayed in! The leg of the bed was also broken. When I look at the other Karoo villages where people are welcomed and tidy, they are a disappointment! Uncle Jurg's Starry Land is also something to see, although it was cloudy and cold and we couldn't look at the stars, our conversation was very nice. The so-called observatory in town is, in my opinion, a rip-off and they "steal" SALT's customers with false advertisements etc.

Onwelkom.
Die Heks se Huis 's response
Dear Yolande,
I am sorry that you did not enjoy your time in Sutherland, however giving a review as the one above is completely unjustified.
99% of our reviews are great and it just take one bad review like the one you've just left to make all our hard work undone.
Firstly it is not my problem that you guys ran out of petrol as you entered town.
Unfortunately I could not assist you at that time, as I myself just arrived from Cape Town in Sutherland and was waiting for other guests who also checked in.
I did however tried to assist you via telephone and WhatsApp.
Secondly you guys were 500 m from the gas station at that stage.
Furthermore you never contacted me while you stayed in the cottage and did you personally decide to leave the Saturday, without advising me, and just left the place open - I think that was rather uncalled for.
All the cottages are stocked with oil lamps and matches in case of load shedding - personally we cannot help for the amount of load shedding we are experiencing and can also not help if you could not locate the oil lamp that was standing on the kitchen counter.

The people in Sutherland are incredibly friendly and hospitable. The owner sent me voice notes with clear directions to our stay. We were also then warmly welcomed by another lady who took us to our home. Everything was neat and clean. And the house was wonderfully warm inside. Especially the shower works well and heats up very quickly. If you want to make a fire in the fireplace, just make sure you take wood with you. After 10 o'clock in the evening all the shops are closed. But we had a wonderful night's rest and would definitely recommend it to anyone going to Sutherland.

We had a great time at Heks se Huis, the horses next door who came to say hello were an extra plus point for any animal lover. Very neat little house, all the necessary kitchen equipment was available. The indoor barbecue is such a treat, especially on a cold evening, and the outdoor barbecue is even better if the weather permits. Beds were warmly covered with more than enough blankets, bathroom clean and tidy. All one can "complain" about is the walnuts that fall from the tree onto the corrugated iron roof when you want to take a nap. Otherwise, it is so conveniently located in the center of town, great for walking distance to various restaurants and places to visit. The planetarium right next door is definitely worth a visit. We will definitely stay again!

Totally contrary to what we previously received from the website and Sutherland!
We arrived in Sutherland on a bitterly cold weekend. Landlady showed us our accommodation, and said vaguely that there was a heater and fire place. We met friends for dinner, and returned freezing cold. There was no heater, no extra blankets, no electric blankets. We pushed the single beds together and threw duvets on top of each other. Even worse! Duvet interior is satiny and kept sliding off! Next morning owner was contacted, asked for heater and 2 blankets. Cleaner arrived with fan heater and 1 thin patchwork blanket (no inside blankets). I immediately went to the Pep store to buy fleece blankets. We went to buy other kind of wood because we were exhausted (thought our wood was too wet) but was just as bad 2nd night. The fireplace had no draft. It was extremely disappointing after we paid for self catering. We could get better service elsewhere for the same amount. And no, I refuse any feedback from the owner.

A pleasant resting place from which we could explore the whole area.
Die Heks se Huisie offers all the usual facilities and is simply but practically designed with enough space for four guests with luggage. The cottage is well located within easy walking distance of all the town's shops and restaurants. It provides a convenient base from which to explore the entire area. Just a pity we could not make any contact with the owner to report an apparently temporary problem with water pressure.

Beste Rachel,
Baie dankie vir jou bespreking.
Ek was te alle tye bereikbaar per telefoon gedurende die Kerstyd, maar het geen "missed call" van julle gehad nie, so ek is nie seker hoe jul my in die hande probeer kry het.
Wat die water betref : Ons het intussen die hele erf oopgegrawe en alle invoer waterpype vervang na die hoofhuis sowel as die kothuis, welke 'n aansienlike verander gemaak het (Die eiendom is 113 jaar oud, en van die pype kom nog uit daardie era, so dit was tyd om dit te vervang).
Vriendelike groete
Marné

Cute little place.
The house is very cute. The dilemma is that I was traveling with my elderly parents and my father (76) could not manage the stairs. He ended up sleeping downstairs on the couch.

Beste Winrie, baie dankie vir jou bespreking.
Ek is so jammer om te hoor van jou Pa en die trappe. Op meeste van die webwerwe dui ons aan dat die plek trappe het. Die foto's op LekkeSlaap wys ook duidelik dat daar trappe is en dat die slaapkamer bo in die dak is.
Ek hoop dat julle die res van julle kuier geniet het.
Groete
Marné
