Cornelia is super gasvry en die Garden Cottage is vol karakter met n besonderse pragtige tuin. Kon miskien skoner gewees het, daar was 'n paar spinnerakke en badkamer se wasbak se drein nie superskoon nie, maar oor die algemeen aanvaarbaar

Tip: Take tons and tons of mosquito repellent, the little fish pond is a breeding ground for mosquitoes and our children walked through!

Dankie vir jou mening. Ons probeer hard om almal tevrede te stel. Aan die muskiete in Hermanus is daar weinig te doen. Ek kan net noem dat die lopende fontein in die dammetjie verhoed dat hulle daar uitbroei, maar ongelukkig is daar talle ander broeiplekke vir muskiete oral in die omgewing.

Excellent! Outstanding!
The only real dilemma was the uneven and poorly constructed garden path from the parking area to the entrance. A microwave would be a valuable improvement.

Ek verstaan nie die opmerking oor die mikrogolfoond nie. Daar is wel 'n mikrogolfoond in die eenheid.
Ons hou nogal van die informele tuinpaadjie soos hy is, jammer dat dit vir julle ongerieflik was.

Beste Reinardt,
Dankie vir jou terugvoering.
Ons sou graag meer inligting wou hê oor wat jy as "verwaarloos en vuil" beskryf, aangesien ons werklik gesteld is op netheid en heelwat tyd aan die instandhouding van die eenheid bestee. Jy het tydens jou verblyf vir insektegif gevra, wat onmiddellik verskaf is. Jy het dus moontlik verwys na die teenwoordigheid van vlieë - iets wat ongelukkig hierdie tyd van die jaar 'n probleem in die hele Hermanus is, en nie net by Garden Cottage nie - ten spyte van die feit dat vullis gereeld verwyder word.
Kontak ons gerus direk indien jy enige verdere voorstelle het oor hoe die netheid van die geriewe verbeter kan word. Ons sal graag aandag skenk aan aspekte wat tot 'n meer aangename verblyf vir alle gaste sal bydra.
Vriendelike groete,
Cornelia

Good location and nice big porch.
Apartment was nice and tidy, and the large porch with braai area was great for visiting. My teenagers especially appreciated the DStv and WiFi. The kitchenware could be updated, and additional crockery would be welcome. In general, we had a very nice and peaceful visit, the hostess was friendly and the experience very positive. I will definitely stay here again.

Neat, clean and quiet area.
The room was nice and clean and the bedding was fresh and soft. The area is peaceful and quiet. Not too far from the town centre and beach. The only negative point is that there was no parking for our car in the yard. This caught me off-guard because it says on the website "off-street parking" and with this statement I understood that it would be on the premises and not in the street or sidewalk. It gave me a bit of a restless night. Maybe it should be corrected on the website because this is one of the first things I check. There weren't other guests around all the time and I feel that the owner could have given us permission to park our car inside the yard, especially at night. Otherwise it is a lovely place.

Die huidige uitleg van Lekkeslaap se webblad maak dit ongelukkig nie moontlik om 'n onderskeid te tref tussen die parkeergeriewe vir die 2 verskillende eenhede nie. Slegs Garden Cottage het 'n binneparkeerplek. Daar is genoeg parkeerruimte buite die erf en die area is snags goed belig.

Pleasant stay and lovely weather!
Our stay was pleasant. The place is tidy, except for shower and sink in the bathroom where the water runs out very slowly. The result is that when you take a shower, you are literally standing ankle-deep in water. There are facilities such as a Weber grill and microwave oven, but there is only a small sink for washing dishes and where do you throw the dirty greasy water? We would also like hair dryers! Furthermore, there is also a drip tray under the toilet which smells very unpleasant and is unhygienic with carpets in the bathroom area. Thank you for the delicious home-baked rusk! Coffee and tea are probably bonus, but not powdered milk.

We do make it quite clear that the self catering facilities at Haven of Peace are basic and not suitable for the preparation of full meals. We have never had any complaints about these facilities or about the dogs, for that matter, as hygiene and the comfort of our guests are of paramount importance to us.
I may just mention that Johan did not reply to any of my messages to make arrangements with him. He also failed to pay the balance of his booking but, instead, left halfway through the booking, sending me an SMS to ask what to do with the keys.

The place was beautifully clean and tidy and just a few streets from the sea. We had a great time relaxing in the peaceful surroundings. Although we were aware that the place only had basic kitchen facilities, I kind of missed a separate kitchenette and/or a sink! How about one of those collapsible types perhaps?
