It was peaceful place to clear your mind.

I'll definitely return to that place next time with my family.

Eerste indrukke is blywend. Onpersoonlik/donker/vuil. Foto's op Lekkeslaap blad bedrieglik en misleidend!

Host rather unfriendly on arrival - just interested in the money. Stairs to room - dirty and smelly carpets - safety risk, looks like loose carpets draped on stairs. Shabby lampshades on sides of bed. Old food stuck on table cloth on table next to bed. Curtains torn. Filthy cupboard for clothes, paper on shelves has known better days. Dirty heater panel against the wall - full of blue marks. Bed linen not ironed. Towels hard and "used up" - appear shabby and has an awful smell to it. Water outlet of zink in room, blocked - water takes long to run out. Notice of water saving against the wall, very shabby and Prestik shows as fatty spots. "Kitchen area": greasiness around power plug on the wall (previous cooking probably, not cleaned properly).

Family with young children

Die verblyf was aangenaam.

Ons bespreking was gemaak vir 2 volwassenes en 1 kind van 7 jaar en die bespreking was so bevestig. Ons selfsorg-eenheid het net een dubbelbed gehad en geen bed vir my kind. Dit was nogal ongemaklik slaap vir 3 nagte. Verder was die eenheid voldoende toegerus.

The stay was pleasant.

Our reservation was made for 2 adults and 1 child of 7 years and the reservation was thus confirmed. Our self-catering unit only had one double bed and no bed for my child. It was quite uncomfortable to sleep for 3 nights. Furthermore, the unit was adequately equipped.

'n Sofa was beskikbaar, maar by aankoms het Mnr Kobus gesê alles is reg toe die bestuurder hom vra of alles in orde is. Die bespreking en betaling was gemaak vir 1 dubbelbed, niks is ooit te veel vir ons nie.

Aaklig!

My ondervinding by Eagles Rest was om die minste te sê baie teleurstellend. Ek het na 'n naweek uitgetrek (ek was vir 'n maand daar bespreek en betaal.) Ek voel die eienaars is nie bewus van wat in B&B gebeur en laat die personeel met opdragte om plek te bestuur. Mens kry ook 'n gevoel dat die minste gedoen word om die plek in stand te hou ('n bietjie verf en Handy Andy sal wonders verrig.) En nadat ek reeds 10 dae uitgetrek het, moes ek by eienaar hoor hul was nie eers bewus dat ek nie meer daar bly nie. Nadat ek gekla het oor kokkerotte en goggas wat my byt in bed moes ek hoor dat hul nie kan verstaan dat dit my pla, want ek is 'n buitelug mens? Ek kon my ore nie glo.

Horrible!

My experience at Eagles Rest was very disappointing to say the least. I moved out after a weekend (I was there for a month booked and paid.) I feel the owners are not aware of what happens in B&B and leave the staff with assignments to manage the place. You also get the feeling that the least is being done to maintain the place (a little paint and Handy Andy will do wonders.) And after I moved out already 10 days, I had to tell the owner they weren't even aware that I no longer live there. After complaining about cockroaches and bugs biting me in bed I had to hear that they can't understand that it bothers me because I'm an outdoorsy person? I couldn't believe my ears.

It was a very hot February and there was an influx of mosquitos and other guests also complained about it. Unfortunately, nature is beyond our control.

Het net een nag gebly.

Ons het van die begin af gesê my dogter is 16 en hul het ons laat verstaan dit is voldoende verblyf. As jy die bank uittrek, moet jy die tafel opvou. Daar is geen sitplek as die bank uitgetrek is nie. Die yskas is so klein daar kan nie 'n bottel melk regop staan nie en die mense was meer bekommerd oor hul hond wat by die hek uit kon kom as hul gaste se gemak. Hulle was ook meer ingestel op of hul reeds hulle geld gekry het, as die redes vir ons vroeë vertrek.

Only stayed one night.

We said from the beginning that my daughter was 16 and they made us understand that this was sufficient accommodation. If you pull out the sofa, you have to fold the table. There is no seat when the sofa is pulled out. The fridge is so small it can't hold a bottle of milk upright and the people were more worried about their dog getting out the gate than their guests' comfort. They were also more focused on whether they had already received their money, than the reasons for our early departure.

Eagles Rest 's response

The room is designed for 2 adults but A sleeper couch was offered and was accepted as such before arrival and on arrival no further comment was made.Not all guests like dogs so as to minimise inconvenience we are very conscious to keep the small house dog inside.

'n Baie skoon en netjiese eenheid wat goed ingerig is.

'n Veilige omgewing en beslis waarde vir geld. Die selfsorg eenheid is goed ingerig, sal beslis weer daar gaan bly in die toekoms.
