Uitstekende waarde vir geld en 'n goeie basis om die omgewing te verken.

Ons het die naweek weg baie geniet. Die ligging was puik en die omgewing rustig, die kamers was smaakvol, skoon en netjies, die restaurant se kos was heerlik en ons is baie gasvry ontvang. Esther het selfs klere wat agtergebly het, vir ons met koerier aangestuur!

Excellent value for money and a good base to explore the area.

We really enjoyed the weekend away. The location was great and the surroundings peaceful, the rooms were tasteful, clean and tidy, the restaurant's food was delicious and we were received very hospitably. Esther even sent us clothes that were left behind by courier!

Pragtige akkommodasie en 'n skoonryke ligging. Ontbyt was super lekker en Esther is die beste gasvrou.

TV/DStv het net bietjie hulp nodig. Al die kanale haak vas en mens kan nie eintlik iets daarop kyk nie, want die klank wat vashaak raak 'n groot irritasie.

Beautiful accommodation and a clean location. Breakfast was super nice and Esther is the best hostess.

TV/DStv just needs a little help. All the channels get stuck and you can't actually watch anything on them, because the stuck sound is a big annoyance.

Baie aangenaam.

Dit was regtig baie lekker om te oornag by Ester's Lodge. Ons gasvrou was besonder oulik en die ontbyte baie lekker. Enigste kommer is die miere in ons kamer. Swart miere, wat in ons kos beland het. Die beddegoed wat oorgetrek is, is nie vir dubbelbeddens nie, maar hulle het moeite gedoen om dit mooi te laat lyk. Ons het daar gebly op 'n Vrydag en Saterdag, en die verkeer was erg die Vrydag. Omdat dit op die hoofpad is, kan dit iemand wat sensitief is vir verkeer dalk irriteer. Ons moes 'n paar keer uit die Lodge uitgaan en inkom op snaakse tye. Een keer was laat in die aand na 'n funksie, en ons moes 'n paar keer toet om die sekuriteitswag se aandag te trek - dit kan 'n probleem veroorsaak vir die ander gaste. Tweede keer was vroeg in die oggend - my man moes ry vir 'n afspraak, en hulle kon nie die wag kry om oop te maak nie, wat hulle amper laat gemaak het vir hulle afspraak.

Very enjoyable.

It was really nice to spend the night at Ester's Lodge. Our hostess was extremely nice and the breakfasts very tasty. Only concern is the ants in our room. Black ants, which ended up in our food. The bedding that was used is not for double beds, but they made every effort to make it look beautiful. We stayed there on a Friday and Saturday, and traffic was bad on Friday. Because it is on the main road, it may irritate someone who is sensitive to traffic. We had to get out of the Lodge a few times and come in at funny times. Once was late in the evening after a function, and we had to check a few times to get the security guard's attention - it could cause a problem for the other guests. Second time was early in the morning - my husband had to drive for an appointment, and they couldn't wait to open, which made them almost late for their appointment.

Esther's Country Lodge 's response

Thank you for your review Dalesté. We appreciate and take into consideration all of the points mentioned.
The ants do unfortunately make an appearance this time of year and we do our best to ensure that they are controlled prior to guests arrival. Although our rooms have been cleaned from top to toe they do often reappear, especially if guests have food in the rooms. We do have ant traps in the rooms and we also offer Doom to those guests who would like to make use of this.
Our beds are made up in a unique way to allow each guest their own duvet. We do have other linen available should I guests prefer something to share.
The traffic on the road varies from day to day and is unfortunately something that is beyond our control.
We do encourage our guests to let us know if they are planning an early departure in the morning to ensure we are available to assist with their departure.
We appreciate the time put into sharing your experience with us.

'n Aangename ervaring gesteun deur uitnemende gasvryheid en hulpvaardigheid.

Ester's Country Lodge is die ideale oorslaap as op pad is of as jy iewers konferensie moet bywoon. Eenvoudig, maar skoon en doelmatig. Goed ingerig wat die restaurant betref met etes van hoë gehalte. Beslis die moeite werd.
