Amazing.

Stay was extremely nice. The aircon in the bedroom was a bonus as we had a super hot day the weekend. The beds in the bedroom are due for an upgrade though. We could feel the springs and it was very uncomfortable to sleep on. Other than that we enjoyed every moment. Will definitely go back.

Ons het heerlik by Elm Tree Kreefie oorgebly.

Ons het van 24-27 Mei in Kreefie oorgebly wat ons basis was vir 'n paar dae se rondrit in die Weskus-area wat ek glad nie ken nie. Kreefie is baie gerieflik, klein en kompak met alles wat jy nodig het, en 'n man het ons ontvang met die eenheid se sleutel en hekafstandsbediening. Hy het mooi verduidelik hoe die hek werk en die WiFi-wagwoord wat ons kon gebruik. Die plaasomgewing met diere is pragtig en die perseel is mooi versorg. Niks om oor te kla nie, behalwe dalk net 'n voorstel dat daar wasgoedlyne of 'n rakkie beskikbaar gestel word vir nat handdoeke en vadoeke om te kan droog. Ons sal beslis weer daar oornag.

We had a lovely stay at Elm Tree Lobster.

We stayed in Kreefie from May 24-27 which was our base for a few days of driving around the West Coast area which I don't know at all. Lobster is very comfortable, small and compact with everything you need, and a man received us with the unit key and gate remote. He explained nicely how the gate works and the WiFi password we could use. The farm environment with animals is beautiful and the premises are well maintained. Nothing to complain about, except maybe just a suggestion that there be clotheslines or a rack made available for wet towels and dishcloths to dry. We will definitely stay there again.

'n Aangename, rustige omgewing vir 'n broodnodige wegbreek.

Al die fasiliteite was daar wat ons nodig gehad het. Die plek bied 'n rustige atmosfeer. Dis lekker om die dieregeluide te hoor! Dis redelik naby aan die see en ook naby supermarkte vir wanneer jy sommer plaaslik jou kos aankope wil gaan doen.

A pleasant, peaceful setting for a much-needed break.

All the facilities we needed were there. The place offers a peaceful atmosphere. It's fun to hear the animal sounds! It's quite close to the sea and also close to supermarkets for when you just want to do your food shopping locally.

Onbedagsame mense maak dinge onaangenaam. Anders is dit baie oulike plekkies.

Geen kontak gehad met die gasvrou nie. Sy het haar foon geantwoord toe van die ander huisies se mense voor ons venster staan en kuier en drink by die hek met blêrende musiek @ 22h30. Dit het dit onaangenaam gemaak. Sonder hierdie faktore sal dit ʼn aangename ervaring wees. Geen idee gehad van die beurtkrag skedule nie. Daar is ʼn lig beskikbaar, maar geen WiFi tydens beurtkrag nie.

Thoughtless people make things unpleasant. Otherwise they are very nice places.

Had no contact with the hostess. She answered her phone when some of the people from the other houses were standing in front of our window visiting and drinking by the gate with blaring music @ 10.30pm. It made it unpleasant. Without these factors it will be a pleasant experience. Had no idea about the load shedding schedule. There is a light available, but no WiFi during load shedding.

Rustig en ontspannend.

Ja, ons het lekker daar gebly. Dit was rustig met geen geraas nie. Ons stel voor dat die badkamer 'n deur kry vir privaatheid. Die hek neem baie lank om oop en toe te maak, dit was bietjie frustrerend.

Adequate for a weekend.

The toilet was very dirty and made a horrible noise once flushed. Opening and closing the bedroom doors were very noisy. The main bedroom had winter sheets in February, and the mattress protector was filthy. Outside light shined into the main bedroom, and the curtains did not block it out. Light switches were faulty - did not switch on (dining room). We specifically enquired whether or not there was a grater; they responded to say their kitchen is fully equipped, but there was no grater, and the knives were not sharp.

Die verblyf is soos per fotos. Ons het slegs oorgeslaap, nie veel tyd spandeer nie. Die persoon wat ons ingeboek het, was baie vriendelik, maar het geen idee gehad van ons bespreking nie. Ons moes vir hom wys watter plekkie ons geboek het. Die plekkie is netjies, maar kan beter.

Baie kalmerend.

As jy 'n rustige wegbreek wil hê sonder enige lawaai of net die geraas van motors, is Elm Tree Guest Farm beslis die plek. Net om buite op die stoep te kon sit met jou vleisie op die kole, is een van die mees kalmerende oomblikke wat ek al beleef het. Hulle voorsien alles. Ek sal Elm Tree Guest Farm beslis aanbeveel.

If you want a peaceful getaway without any noise or just the noise of cars, Elm Tree Guest Farm is definitely the place. Just being able to sit outside on the porch with your little meat on the coals is one of the most calming moments I've ever experienced. They provide everything. I would definitely recommend Elm Tree Guest Farm.

Wasn't happy with the bedroom décor.

The beds aren't suitable for anybody to sleep on plus I hated the bedding that was on the bed, maybe they must change their beds and just use white bedding, the rooms' curtains were hanged on on the wrong side and the other on the right side. I work for a textiles company and we do bedding, and guest houses must just do white bedding, sorry to complain, but my partner and myself went home with sore backs, first time I slept on a bed that was degrading.

Dit was a wonderlike ervaring.

Ons het die voëls baie geniet. Die pou het kom kuier elke dag. Die plaasdiere was ongelooflik oulik. Die geluide is mooi. Die hoenders se gekekkel ook. Ons het ons baie geniet. Sal definitief weer kom kuier. Die kothuis was oulik. Net die bed is bietjie ongemaklik en die banke in die sitarea ook. Dankie vir 'n lekker wegbreek.

We really enjoyed the birds. The peacock came to visit every day. The farm animals were incredibly cute. The sounds are beautiful. The chickens' clucking too. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. Will definitely visit again. The cottage was cute. Only the bed is a bit uncomfortable and so are the sofas in the lounge area. Thanks for a nice break.

A comfortable value for money stay.

I overnighted in Snoekie which was very neat, functional and very well equipped for full self-catering. This farm is the ideal base from which to explore all the attractions in the surrounding area. A well-rated lifestyle centre, with two restaurants, is within walking distance. Then the rich bird life and the views of the harbour add to the atmosphere of peace all around. I will be back for a longer stay.

Lekker en gemaklik ou rustige klein ou plasie! Kinders het dit baie geniet om die diere te sien.

Het dit baie geniet, en lekker gerus. Dit was 'n baie netjiese plek en het baie veilig gevoel, en ook dieselfde tyd privaatheid gehad. En die kinders het die diere baie geniet. En mense was baie gasvry en vriendelik. Sal weer kom.

Perfek vir die rede van ons besoek aan St Helenabaai.

Verblyf in Snoekie was perfek en siende dat ons slegs vir een aand bespreek het, maar toe 'n tweede aand wou bly was Maria so gaaf om 'n ander eenheid, Harder, beskikbaar te maak. Harder is totaal substandard teenoor Snoekie, maar het die doel gedien. Ons is dus heel tevrede met die diens oor die algemeen. Die donkies op die plaas en die absolute netheid van selfs die tuine is n plesier om te beleef. Ek sal Elm Tree Guest Farm oor en oor aanbeveel. Dankie.

Perfect for the reason of our visit to St Helena Bay.

Stay in Snoekie was perfect and seeing that we only booked for one night, but when wanted to stay a second night Maria was kind enough to make another unit, Harder, available. Harder is totally substandard to Snookie, but served the purpose. So we are very satisfied with the service in general. The donkeys on the farm and the absolute cleanliness of even the gardens are a pleasure to experience. I would recommend Elm Tree Guest Farm over and over again. Thank you.

Baie onaangename verblyf.

Geen oondpan, slegs 1 pot en 1 pan. Eetgerei buig as jy gebruik, pype raas as jy kraan in jou huis en huis langs jou opdraai. Ons het ook nie die huis gekry wat ons bespreek het. Swak ontvangs teenoor ander verblyfplekke.

Ons 3 dae/nagte by Elm tree farm was fantasties. Hannelie is baie gasvry en behulpsaam. Sal weer daar bespreek op 'n ander geleentheid.

St. Helenabaai is 'n fantastiese plek met die skoonste lug. Die stilte en rustigheid is soos 'n welkome lafenis weg van die stad se gewoel. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel vir enigeen wat wil wegkom van die gejaadheid van die stadslewe.

Perfect for our 1 night stay.

We were very impressed with the accommodation, perfect for our 1 night stay. The aircon was fantastic and we felt safe in the apartment. There is a small farm yard with a few geese and chickens/roosters, the roosters start crowing pretty early, take ear plugs if your a light sleeper. But all in all a wonderful stay. Thank you Elm Tree Lodge.

Gerieflik en goed geleë.

Elm Tree Guest Farm is goed geleë in St Helenabaai naby aan alles. Die kothuis het al die nodige geriewe gehad en ons het veral die braaiplek op die stoep geniet. Dit is baie veilig en ons was nie vir een oomblik bekommerd oor ons 3 jarige wat rondbeweeg het op die werf nie. Die hek wat toemaak teen die pad het veral hiervoor gehelp. Ons het ook die uitstekende diens by die Spar geniet asook die vriendelike mense en lekker kos by De Palm Restaurant op die dorp. Die biltongwinkel by De Palm se biltong was ook van hoogstaande gehalte. St Helenabaai is goed geleë om die Weskus te verken met dorpe soos Dwarskerbos, Velddrift, Laaiplek, Paternoster, Vredenburg en Jacobsbaai gerieflik naby. Ons sal weer kom kuier.

Elm Tree Guest Farm is well located in St Helena Bay close to everything. The cottage had all the necessary facilities and we especially enjoyed the braai place on the stoep. It is very safe and we were not worried for one moment about our 3 year old moving around on the site. The gate that closes against the road helped especially for this. We also enjoyed the excellent service at the Spar as well as the friendly people and good food at De Palm Restaurant in town. The biltong shop at De Palm's biltong was also of high quality. St Helena Bay is well situated for exploring the West Coast with towns such as Dwarskerbos, Velddrift, Laaiplek, Paternoster, Vredenburg and Jacobsbaai conveniently close by. We will visit again.

Goed ingerig, lekker privaat en baie sentraal in St Helena Baai.

Die eenheid (Krefie) is goed ingerig met al die nodige gereedskap vir daaglikse gebruik. Dit was ook baie netjies en skoon en veilig. Al kritiek wat ons het is: Die sitkamerbankies en 2 kombuisstoele ontsettend ongemaklik was. Bietjie te regop en hard. Die kussings was ook baie dun. Het ook gevind dat daar ontsettend baie vlieë was sodra mens begin kosmaak. Sou ook verkies het om bietjie meer te betaal en DStv tot ons beskikking gehad het. Maar oor die algemeen, sal ons definitief weer daar tuisgaan.

The unit (Krefie) is well furnished with all the necessary tools for daily use. It was also very neat and clean and safe. All criticism we have is: The living room sofas and 2 kitchen chairs were terribly uncomfortable. A little too upright and hard. The pillows were also very thin. Also found that there were an awful lot of flies as soon as you started cooking. Would also have preferred to pay a little more and have DStv at our disposal. But overall, we would definitely stay there again.
