Vriendelike ontvangs. Baie lekker gebly al was die tyd kort.

Sal enige tyd weer teruggaan. Alles was skoon en netjies. Sal enige een aanbeveel om daarheen te gaan.

Baie dankie dat julle 'n tydjie afgestaan het om vir Heyns Cottage terugvoer te gee. Julle is verskriklike gawe mense, dit was so lekker gewees om julle to kon ontmoet al was dit soos jy sê ''net te kort". Kom kuier gerus weer.

Ruimte beperk, al die geriewe beskikbaar.

Baie oulike en vriendelike honde, maar dink hulle moet afgesonder word van gaste.

Space limited, all the facilities available.

Volledig toegerus en waarde vir geld.

Ons het lekker gebly in die hout kothuis met volle geriewe wat geleë is in die agterplaas van die hoof woning. 3 Groot en vriendelike honde teenwoordig op perseel. Vriendelik en gasvry ontvang. Ongelukkig moes ons 2 ure in die donker deurbring a.g.v. krag wat af was in die hoofwoning.

Fully equipped and value for money.

We stayed in the wooden cottage with full facilities, situated in the back yard of the main residence. 3 Large and friendly dogs present on site. Friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately we had to spend 2 hours in the dark due to power that was in the main residence.

Rustig.

Die Cottage is ingerig vir mense wat lank wil bly. Alles wat nodig is vir 'n baie lang selfsorgverblyf. Alles was skoon en reg vir ons, die honde kan pla as jy nie van honde hou nie.

The Cottage is designed for people who want to stay long. Everything needed for a very long self-catering stay. Everything was clean and ready for us, the dogs can bother if you don't like dogs.

Baie vriendelike en behulpsame gasheer, maar 'n paar probleme met die akkommodasie.

Nie baie netjies nie. Badkamer is in die slaapkamer. Mens wil darem privaat wees as jy die toilet gebruik. Die adres behoort aan die restourant en as mens daar navraag doen is die eienaar nie baie vriendelik nie.

Very friendly and helpful host, but a few problems with accommodation.

Not very neat. Bathroom is in the bedroom. One at least wants to be private when using the toilet. The address is the restaurant's location and when you enquire at the restaurant the owner isn't very friendly.

Hidden Gem in Swellendam.

This little cottage was the perfect home away from home. This pictures do not do it justice. It had everything we needed to make us comfortable including a hot water bottle in case it the heater didn't do the trick. Renisa was an amazing host and has really taken the time to see that the little things are available. I wish my stay had been longer but will definitely go back.

Onvergeetlike ondervinding.

My lewensmaat en ek het by Heyns Cottage oorgebly oppad terug van die Buffalo Rally in Mosselbaai. Met die aanland slag, het ons 'n baie warm welkom ontvang, en Rensia en Ettienne het uit hul pad gegaan om seker te maak ons is gemaklik en gelukkig. Ons oorbly het in 'n braai geëindig met fantastiese kos en geselskap, wyn, musiek en 'n kuier wat ons vir lank sal onthou. Die eenheid self is baie netjies, goed ingerig, (Daar is amper alles wat jy aan kan dink in die lyn van kombuis toebehore) en lekker dik matte op die vloer asook 'n vol DStv-pakket. Die plek is skoon, en die bed is groter as 'n normale dubbel, so ons het lekker gemaklik geslaap. Die 'honesty box' is 'n baie oulike idee. As 'n mens laat daar aankom of jy's effens honger, is daar drink en eet goedjies beskikbaar en jy los net die bedrag vir wat jy vat in die bruin boks. As jy 'n honde liefhebber is, sal Seun en Bella beslis ook jou hart steel. Ons het self groot honde, en met hulle fantastiese geaardhede het hulle baie vinnig in ons harte gekruip. Ons sal beslis weer teruggaan, al moet ons 'n naweek kuier reel in Swellendam.Dit is ook 'n verskoning om op die motorfiets te klim! Ek sal Heyns Cottage beslis aanbeveel, nie net vir die eenheid self nie, maar ook vir die warm ontvangs en lekker kuier. Baie dankie Rensia en Ettienne, julle is tops.

Unforgettable experience.

My partner and I stayed at Heyns Cottage on our way back from the Buffalo Rally in Mossel Bay. Upon landing, we received a very warm welcome, and Rensia and Ettienne went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and happy. Our stay ended in a braai with fantastic food and company, wine, music and a visit we will remember for a long time. The unit itself is very neat, well furnished, (There is almost everything you can think of in the line of kitchen accessories) and nice thick carpets on the floor as well as a full DStv package. The place is clean, and the bed is bigger than a normal double, so we slept very comfortably. The 'honesty box' is a very cool idea. If you arrive late or are a little hungry, there are drinks and snacks available and you only leave the amount for what you take in the brown box. If you are a dog lover, Son and Bella will definitely steal your heart too. We have big dogs ourselves, and with their fantastic natures they very quickly crept into our hearts. We will definitely go back again, even if we have to spend a weekend in Swellendam. This is also an excuse to get on the motorbike! I would definitely recommend Heyns Cottage, not only for the unit itself, but also for the warm welcome and nice stay. Thank you very much Rensia and Ettienne, you are tops.

Al wat ek nodig gehad het vir 2 aande.

Ek het al die basiese goed gehad wat ek nodig gehad het vir die 2 aande wat ek hier gebly het. Goed vir enkellopendes (of 'n paartjie) wat bekostigbare verblyf vir 'n naweek soek.
