Lieflike huis met drie kaggels en warm beddens vir die winter.

Ruim huis met lieflike houtmeubels en drie kaggels. Dankie vir die hout en firelighter. Baie gerieflike en maklike in- en uitteken. Gemaklike beddens met elektriese komberse. Pragtige uitsig op die water. Bad in die een kamer is nou al 'n paar jaar lank gekraak, maar hierdie keer het dit baie gelek - die hele toilet was onder water. Sitkamerbank is afgeleef en van die matte het ook al hulle leeftyd gehad. Van buite lyk dit ook slordig omdat dit 'n verf kort omdat die rankplant afgehaal is. Dit bly steeds 'n pragtige plek en dit sal jammer wees as die eienaars nie nou hulle hand daarop hou nie.

Lovely house with three fireplaces and warm beds for the winter.

Spacious house with lovely wooden furniture and three fireplaces. Thanks for the wood and firelighter. Very convenient and easy check-in and check-out. Comfortable beds with electric blankets. Beautiful view on the water. Bath in one room has been cracked for a few years now, but this time it leaked a lot - the whole toilet was under water. Living room couch is tired and some of the carpets have also had their lifetime. From the outside it also looks untidy because it needs a paint because the creeper has been taken down. It still remains a beautiful place and it would be a shame if the owners don't keep their hands on it now.

Rustig en koud maar snoesig.

Ek was by Fox & Squirrel op 'n baie koue naweek, maar die baie kaggels het heeltemal opgemaak daarvoor. Die plekkie is stil en baie veilig. Die huis is goed toegerus en baie mooi. Die enigste negatief wat ek kan noem is dat daar nie onderdakparkering is nie.

Quiet and cold but cuddly.

I was at Fox & Squirrel on a very cold weekend, but the many fireplaces totally made up for it. The place is quiet and very safe. The house is well equipped and very beautiful. The only negative I can mention is that there is no covered parking.

Reg by die dam vir visvang.

Daar was wel 'n lek in die dak tussen die kombuis en een slaapkamer. Water het in gestroom met die reën. Die handstort in die bad was stukkend. Die parkeerplek is ook 'n probleem. As die bure daar is, kan mens nie by jou eenheid uitkom nie. Ook nie baie privaat nie, huise te op mekaar. Nie vir iemand wat rus en vrede soek nie.

Right by the pond for fishing.

There was a leak in the roof between the kitchen and one bedroom. Water poured in with the rain. The hand shower in the bath was broken. Parking is also a problem. If the neighbors are there, one cannot get to your unit. Not very private either, houses too close together. Not for someone looking for peace and quiet.

A wonderful, very well-equipped cottage in the middle of Dullstroom.

We only stayed for one night en route to the Kruger Park, but the cottage is very well-appointed and equipped. A wonderful base from which to explore the region. Warm as well, despite being in the middle of an intense cold snap.

Thank you Tony.

Rustig, stil en goed vir die siel.

Dit was my en my man se huwelikherdenkingsnaweek. Vir 'n beter, mooier en meer romantiese plek kon ons nie vra nie. Ons het heerlik gekuier en met die ysige weer was die kaggels in die huis net die beste medisyne. Ons het heerlik gerus en was min lus om terug Gauteng toe te gaan. Ons sal beslis weer daar gaan bly.

Peaceful, quiet and good for the soul.

It was mine and my husband's wedding anniversary weekend. We couldn't ask for a better, more beautiful and more romantic place. We had a great time and with the freezing weather the fireplaces in the house were just the best medicine. We rested wonderfully and had little desire to go back to Gauteng. We will definitely stay there again.

Dit was heerlik, plek was pragtig en netjies met alles wat 'n mens nodig het.

Toe ons daar kom was dit reeds laat en is 'n lamp vir ons aangelos. Ons het ook heerlike sjokolade en sjerrie bederf gekry. Sal beslis weer gebruik maak van hulle. Ons as vriendinne kon rustig kuier in 'n veilige omgewing. Die huis was netjies en baie goed ingerig.

Waarde vir geld.

Die kamers is ongelooflik koud, selfs met die kaggels en paneelverhitters aan. Lugversorger moet dalk oorweeg word.

The rooms are incredibly cold, even with the fireplaces and panel heaters on. Air conditioning may need to be considered.

Groot huis,ten volle toegerus en pragtige ligging op die dam.

Groot vakansiehuis met 4 slaapkamers en badkamers vir groot familie. Dorothy was 'n groot bonus vir die skottelgoed was, baie dankie. Huis is mooi onderhou en baie mooi toegerus met als wat mens kan nodig kry. Pragtige ligging teenaan die dam met groot gras-area vir kinders om te speel. Baie veilig gevoel in die veiligheidskompleks. Heerlike stoep vir kuier. Miskien sou 'n afdak help om die son en reën weg te hou en die stoep nog meer gesellig maak. Die Weber-braai was redelik opgeroes en kort beslis vervanging.

Big house, completely equipped and a beautiful location on the dam.

Big holiday home with 4 bedrooms and bathrooms for an entire family. Dorothy coming in to washing the dishes was a big bonus. Thank you. The house is well cared for and well equipped with everything one could need. Beautiful location next to the dam with a big lawn for kids to play. We felt very safe in this security complex. Lovely patio for socialising. Maybe a veranda would keep the sun and rain at bay and make the patio even more of a treat. The Weber was relatively rusty and definitely needs replacing.

A peaceful and secure location to unwind.

The house is neat. It has 4 bedrooms, 2 big baths and two tiny showers. All the rooms are furnished in lovely antiques, but probably overdone for a holiday rental. The upholstery/carpets need a good spring clean. Nice fireplace for the cold nights plus some wood supplied. Generally a very nice place on a security controlled estate, including an alarm. Everything you need is in the house except a non stick pan. Clean linen, towels, etc. are not to be faulted. There is a Weber braai outside but the patio area does not have very comfortable seating to enjoy the view of the dam, which is a pity. This is the real serene part of the house/location.
