We expected better from the place itself but are grateful for the good service.

It's perfect if you're alone and have to spend the night for work, but I wouldn't recommend it for vacation. The room is small, the bathroom is small, little space to move and the braai facilities are far from your own place. The outside air at the jacuzzi does not work at all.

Diere-vriendelike paradys.

As jy 'n diereliefhebber is, is hierdie 'n paradys met 'n hele dieretuin van gerehabiliteerde diere. Die gashere is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en die see 'n maklike 3 minute stap weg.

Baie gemaklike plek om te slaap. Ek sal dit enige tyd aanraai vir twee persone wat 'n bekostigbare romantiese naweek wil beleef.

Gasvryheid was puik. Plek is baie rustig en mens kan baie lekker ontspan in die tuin, braai area en rondom swembad. Die kamers het 'n baie romantiese gevoel so ek sal dit aanraai vir 'n getroude kaartjies of twee persone wat net 'n bekostigbare romantiese wegbreek nodig het.

Quiet place, friendly hosts. Rehabilitation of injured birds and animals commendable.

Cleanliness in Goblin's Creek's rooms is average. I felt that supervision of cleaning staff by owner was missing. Bathrooms for example were not cleaned thoroughly every day. I stayed for 5 nights. The rehabilitation of injured animals is applaudable. The garden is kept clean at all times. However, due to the many open ponds there is a myriad of mosquitoes at night. Rooms are not furnished with mosquito nets or gauze in front of windows. I had to spray the room every night with poison and had to keep the windows and door closed during the night. Never had any fresh air in the room which was awful.

Ongelooflik goedkoop 5-ster-verblyf. Die hele gastehuis is baie luuks. Eienaars baie vriendelik en laat jou dadelik tuis voel.

As 'n pluspunt bedryf die eienaars ook 'n klein diererehabilitasieprogram. Dit was 'n wonderlike ervaring om die diere en voëls te sien en veral hoeveel deernis en liefde hulle vir die diere het. Baie aangename eienaars en baie aangename gastehuis om oor te bly. Beveel dit definitief aan.

Incredibly cheap 5 star accommodation. The entire guest house is very luxurious. Owners very friendly and make you feel at home immediately.

As a plus, the owners also run a small animal rehabilitation program. It was a wonderful experience to see the animals and birds and especially how much compassion and love they have for the animals. Very pleasant owners and very pleasant guest house to stay. Definitely recommend it.

Great stay!

Even though we only stayed for one night, we really enjoyed our stay at Goblin's Creek! The directions are very clear, our garden room was clean and comfortable, service was also really good. The kitchen is great and has anything you might need. We particularly loved all the rescued animals in the garden, and the tree house, which was an amazing place to read a book while watching the sun set on the ocean. Would definitely recommend and would also go back!

Dit was nie gerieflik nie i.t.v kombuis aangesien dit as self-catering adverteer word, mens is nie op jou eie nie.

Ek was glad nie beïndruk nie. Die kombuis moet gedeel word met al die gaste al bly jy in die Garden Room wat glad nie in die huis is nie. Beddegoed was nie die skoonste wat ek al ervaar het nie en ruik glad nie vars nie. Beddens in die Garden Room is ook vreeslik ongemaklik. Die huis self binne in die voorkamer is ook nie vir my skoon en vars nie. As mens soveel geld betaal wil jy gerief hê. Nie noodwendig luuksheid nie. Badkamer in die Garden Room het ook nie deure nie. Dit is meestal couples wat daar bly en soos elke mens soek mens bietjie privaatheid.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

It was not convenient in terms of kitchen as it is advertised as self-catering, you are not on your own.

I was not impressed at all. The kitchen must be shared with all the guests even if you stay in the Garden Room which is not in the house at all. Bed linen was not the cleanest I have ever experienced and did not smell fresh at all. Beds in the Garden Room are also terribly uncomfortable. The house itself inside the front room is not clean and fresh to me either. When you pay that much money you want convenience. Not necessarily luxury. Bathroom in the Garden Room also has no doors. It is mostly couples who stay there and like everyone, you are looking for some privacy.

Goblin's Creek 's response

Dear Bianca,
If you were unhappy with anything you had only to ask. The garden rooms are only 4 months old and have fresh new crisp white linen and brand new beds and mattresses, however, if they were not up to your standard you were welcome to let me know, I would have been more than happy to change them. Our description of our kitchen on the site reads “The fully equipped communal kitchen at the manor house, as well as all other amenities, are at your disposal”. Our rooms are all open planned as we presume that everybody bringing a partner away are a couple. Should you want some privacy in the toilet you were shown a private toilet for your use. As for paying so much, I feel that R 400 per person is an absolute steal for staying at Goblins Creek, however, we travel extensively and realise that to spend a night in an establishment like Goblins Creek will set you back at least R 1500 per person usually.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

The old fashioned bath in the bedroom is just very impractical.

Dearest Poppie,
Thank you so much for taking the time to send us your thoughts and kind words. You will be pleased to know that we have now added 2 beautiful garden rooms that both have showers and DStv, but still retain our “Olde World” charm and décor. They also both look out onto the stunning back garden and you can see all our wonderful 4 legged furry and feathered family roaming around, love to see you again.
Kindest regards,
Brett and Rosi.

Great hospitality, warm welcome, lots of attention to detail

We were welcomed warmly by the staff member on duty who showed us to our rooms and made us familiar with the establishment. We were later welcomed by the owners. Beautiful four poster beds and free standing bath with hand held shower (would have preferred a shower cubicle). Great attention to detail in rooms (chocolate on pillow and rose petals on bed) as well as lounge & outdoor areas. Beautiful gardens and lots of animals...cat, chickens geese & tortoise.The owners were not quite prepared to serve us breakfast. However a good experience. Would recommend.

Dearest Michele,
Thank you so much for your great review, a lot has changed since your last visit, we now have 2 garden rooms with showers, tv’s and coffee machines, and have just started the “Goblin Wildlife Sanctuary” for badly injured and orphaned animals run down by cars on our roads and are not releasable but who deserve to live a HAPPY LIFE 😊. We have the most adorable baby skunk “Petal” and dads “baby”, a gorgeous little Steenbokkie called Bridgette. Love to see you soon.
Best wishes
Rosi & Brett

Much enjoyed our short stay at Goblin's Creek.

Our first time to the Weskus as it's called and absolutely in love with St Helena, Stompneusbaai and especially Paternoster. Seriously looking at making this a permanent residence as soon as possible. Safe haven and peace on earth is part of the deal ...

Goblin's Creek 's response

Dear Suzie,
We are so glad that we could add to your wonderful “Weskus” experience, hope you find your piece of paradise soon, it is truly a wonderful privilege to be able to stay in such a safe place, surrounded by beauty, animals, birds and the most exquisite sunsets on earth, hope to see you soon.
Kindest regards,
Brett and Rosi

Ongelooflik rustig en het baie lekker gebly al was dit net een aand.

Om met diere verwelkom te word soos jy by Goblin's Creek inry was wonderlik. Absolute wonderlike atmosfeer en as 'n diereliefhebber was die plek ideaal! Baie mooi kamer en het baie lekker geslaap.

Incredibly peaceful and had a very nice stay even if it was only one night.

Being greeted with animals as you drive into Goblin's Creek was wonderful. Absolutely amazing atmosphere and as an animal lover the place was ideal! Very nice room and slept very well.

Nie beïndruk nie.

Ons was nie beïndruk nie. Die kamers het nie TV`s nie. Dis naby visfabriek. Geen ontbyt. As jy iets wil eet of drink moet jy jouself help. Die lakens was nie skoon nie. Die kamer was wel skoon. Daar is 'n badkamer in slaapkamer. Geen privaatheid.

Not impressed.

We were not impressed. The rooms do not have TVs. It's near fish factory. No breakfast. If you want to eat or drink something you have to help yourself. The sheets were not clean. The room was clean though. There is a bathroom in the bedroom. No privacy.

Goblin's Creek 's response

Dear Jolindi,

If you would have taken a look at the advert in which you made your booking through, you would have noticed that we have no TV’s at Goblins Creek and that we offer a free self-help breakfast of cereals, teas and coffees, and that it is a self-catering establishment. The pictures of the beautiful open plan bathrooms adjoining the bedrooms with ball and claw baths in each are clearly displayed on the site as well. You were also shown a private toilet to use if you so wished.
St Helena Bay is a pretty little fishing village, hence the fishing factory. All this is clearly shown and stated on both this website and on Google.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Vakansie aan die Weskus!

Alles in en om die huis is net die beste. Brett en Rosi is twee wonderlike, gasvrye mense en baie behulpsaam. Ek wil tog noem dat baie van die geriewe gemeenskaplik is, so indien jy 'n baie private mens is, is dit dalk nie ideaal nie. Dit is baie sentraal geleë en ons kon regtig die hele Weskus vandaar besoek.

Vacation on the West Coast!

Everything in and around the house is just the best. Brett and Rosi are two wonderful, hospitable people and very helpful. I do want to mention that many of the facilities are shared, so if you are a very private person, this may not be ideal. It is very centrally located and we could really visit the whole West Coast from there.

Sal 'n ander plek soek vir volgende keer.

Vir R700 per aand het ek darem ontbyt verwag, aangesien ander mense tussen R450 en R500 betaal het en ontbyt gekry het ─ veral op so verlate plek waar jy nie naby winkels is nie. Daar is vir my gesê ek kan pap eet, maar daar was nie melk nie?

This review is being shown in its original language.

Will look elsewhere for next time.

For R700 per night I at least expected breakfast, as other people paid between R450 and R500 and got breakfast ─ especially in such a desolate place where you are not close to shops. I was told I could eat porridge but there was no milk?

Goblin's Creek 's response

Dear Adele, let me try and explain, you paid R 700.00 for 2 people sharing, because you chose the cheapest room, that is R 350.00 each. The other people that were staying paid R 450.00 for the more expensive rooms and then paid R 50.00 extra for a cooked breakfast. You however. did not but we still offered you a choice of 3 cereals free of charge. You chose the: “Verlate plek waar jy nie naby winkels is nie” not I. Unfortunately we can not be responsible for your choice in areas. The milk was in the fridge.

Not good. I do not recommend this place.

Area where it is situated is not great. It is not in Shelley Point. The breakfast was poor. The living area needs cleaning. The kitchen and living room is open plan, it's just not standard for a guest house.
