An overnight stay that put the "gem" in Gemsbokfontein! I recently had the great pleasure of spending a night at Gemsbokfontein Gasteplaas on my way to Nieuwoudtville, and from the moment I arrived, I was made to feel right at home. Marina was a wonderful host: friendly, welcoming, attentive and very kind. The room I stayed in was great and really comfortable for an overnight stay. The farm itself is really beautiful, too, and I witnessed an amazing Karoo sunset on the evening I was there. I also absolutely loved all the animals – the sheep, the goats, the chickens, the peacocks and the owners' very friendly dogs and cats, one of whom accompanied me on my sunset walk and demanded cuddles while I was taking photos. My only regret is that I was there for just one night, but if I ever find myself back in Britstown in future, I know exactly where I'll be staying! Keep up the great work, Marina. Ek waardeer alles baie!

It was a nice experience, thank you. It was comfortable and relaxing. We have travelled with our pets, and I made a suggestion that a fenced-off area should be implemented, seeing that the place is advertised as pet friendly. You cannot leave your dogs to roam around for free; they will flee into the field. So a fenced-off area will work wonderfully; then you can leave your dogs there with a peaceful heart, knowing that they can walk freely without escaping while you relax inside your sleeping area.

That was good, thank you. Everything was good, except that the advertised swimming pool was not there.

Dit was goed, dankie. Als was goed, behalwe dat die geadverteerde swembad nie daar was nie.

I didn't even realize it was listed as a swimming pool, unfortunately there's just a very ordinary farm pond. Luckily there was nice air conditioning to cool off.

Ek het nie eers besef dit is as 'n swembad gelys nie, ongelukkig is daar net 'n doodgewone plaasdam. Gelukkig was daar darem lekker lugreëling wat die afkoel kon doen.

Peaceful, quiet place to sleep. We had a very nice stay. Had a good night's sleep. Air conditioning was a lifesaver after a six-hour drive in plus 40°.

Rustige, stil oorslaap plek. Ons het baie lekker gebly. Goeie nagrus gehad. Lugversorging was 'n redding na ses ure se ry in plus 40°.

Neat, clean and safe place to stay overnight. It was a pleasant surprise to land at Gemsbokfontein. The grandchildren really enjoyed the farm animals, even holding a little lamb.

Netjiese, skoon en veilige oornagplek om by stil te hou. Was 'n aangename verrassing om by Gemsbokfontein aan te land. Kleinkinders het die plaasdiere vreeslik baie geniet, selfs 'n klein lammetjie vasgehou.

Remove the condo from the listing, or update the description. We booked the condo because we are two couples traveling together. According to the description, it would be suitable for our requirements. The description of the bathrooms and rooms regarding the condo is completely wrong. If we had known this, we would not have booked there. There is no en suite bathroom for the upstairs room. The people sleeping in the upstairs room either have to walk through the other couple's bedroom to get to a bathroom, or you have to go out through a door on the ground floor (after you already had to walk past the other room), go into the kitchen, go through the kitchen to the second bathroom. There is also no door between the second bathroom and kitchen, and no door between the ground floor bedroom and the kitchen. This unit, as it is, is not suitable for more than one couple. Water pressure is very low, beds not the best. We considered driving into town and looking for another place to sleep. But the host arrived unexpectedly, we explained our problem, and she let us use one of the other units at no extra cost - grateful for that.

Verwyder die condo van die listing, of opdateer die beskrywing. Ons het die condo bespreek omdat ons twee paartjies is wat saamgereis het. Volgens die beskrywing sou dit gepas wees vir ons vereistes. Die beskrywing van die badkamers en kamers t.o.v. die condo is heeltemal verkeerd. As ons dit geweet het, het ons nie daar geboek nie. Daar is geen en suite badkamer vir die boonste kamer nie. Die persone wat in die boonste kamer slaap, moet of deur die slaapkamer van die ander paartjie loop om by 'n badkamer uit te kom, of jy moet by 'n deur op die grondvloer (nadat jy reeds by die ander kamer moes verbyloop) uitgaan, by die kombuis ingaan, deur die kombuis na die tweede badkamer. Daar is ook geen deur tussen die tweede badkamer en kombuis nie, en ook geen deur tussen die slaapkamer op die grondvloer en die kombuis nie. Hierdie eenheid, soos hy is, is nie geskik vir meer as een paartjie nie. Waterdruk is baie laag, beddens nie die beste nie. Ons het dit oorweeg om dorp toe te ry en ander slaapplek te gaan soek. Maar die host het onverwags opgedaag, ons het ons probleem verduidelik, en sy het ons een van die ander eenhede ook laat gebruik teen geen ekstra koste - dankbaar daarvoor.

I'm glad I was able to add another unit to make it acceptable to you.

Bly ek kon julle nog 'n eenheid bygee ten einde dit vir julle aanvaarbaar te maak.

Not being used to farm animals, we had a terrible night's sleep. The guest next door snored, and when he finally quietened, a distressed cow mooed most of the night. At 4am, cockerels woke us up, and the distressed cow then resumed its mooing.

I am very sorry about your bad experience. Yes, there are many animals and the cow that was mooing so much had a calf that day that died and she came looking for it. It was a great sadness for her.

Ek is baie jammer oor julle slegte ervaring. Ja, daar is baie diere en die koei wat so gebulk het se kalfie is daardie dag dood en sy het na hom kom soek. Dit was 'n groot hartseer vir haar.
