Rustige plekkie vir 'n reisiger.

Gerda is 'n wonderlike gasvrou en het selfs opgevolg om seker te maak dat ons veilig by die huis aangekom het. Die plekkie is skoon en netjies en net wat 'n reisiger na 'n lang dag op die pad vra.

Gerda is a great hostess and even followed up to make sure we got home safely. The place is clean and tidy and just what a traveler asks for after a long day on the road.

Adequate for a quick stop over.

The accommodation is good enough for a stop over. There are good restaurants in close vicinity. However, according to the host, you need to book a day in advance. Pit Stop, a quick walk away, was value for money and recommended; no need to book.

Lekker blyplek sonder fieterjasies.

Die kamers is ruim met twee enkelbeddens elk. Die kombuisie het basiese geriewe en daar is ook 'n gasplaat en paraffienlampe vir loadshedding. Die badkamer is netjies met 'n klein stort, wasbak en toilet. Parkering is veilig agter 'n heining en toegesluit. Die dorp is pragtig, maar die pad soontoe is baie sleg met vele slaggate. Dit sal my verhinder om weer te besoek.

Nice place to stay without frills.

The rooms are spacious with two single beds each. The kitchenette has basic facilities and there is also a gas hob and paraffin lamps for load shedding. The bathroom is neat with a small shower, sink and toilet. Parking is secure behind a fence and locked. The town is beautiful, but the road there is very bad with many potholes. This will prevent me from visiting again.

A tornado had gone through the town the night before so there was much damage and parts of the town had no electricity. However this did not effect Kanon Guest House.

There needs some maintenance to done. The shower head sprays water in all directions and the shower leaks water into the bathroom. The air-conditioner does not work.

Comfortable, convenient stay on a very tight budget.

The host was super-friendly and helpful. Clean bathroom and kitchen, comfy and clean beds. Curtains were dusty and cups needed rewashing before use. My granddaughter enjoyed the grassed area for cartwheeling! A little more attention to detail, possibly, for example, there was a broken plastic chair at the front which should be removed.

Baie lekker gebly maar daar is min voorsiening vir beurtkrag.

Vir oornagverblyf is dit baie geskik, mens moet moeite doen om Phillipolis toe te gaan want dit is nie op 'n hoofroete nie. Die "Pitstop" se kos was baie lekker.

Baie oulike dorpie en gastehuis.

Almal baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Lekker geslaap! Die dorp is regtig stil en rustig. Die regte plek vir 'n oornag as jy na Mosselbaai of soortgelyk reis of van die kus af na Johannesburg/PTA. Kanon Guest House was regtig rustig, skoon en goeie waarde vir geld. Ons het 3 jong mense saam met ons 3 ouer garde gehad en hulle was baie beïndruk met die ondervinding.

Ons het heerlik gebly in ons ruim, silwerskoon blyplek en is baie gasvry ontvang deur Gerda.

Ons het Kersaand oorgebly en ons gasvrou, Gerda, het moeite gedoen om al die vorige aand te laat weet dat daar nie op daardie dag brandstof op die dorp beskikbaar sou wees nie. Sy het ook 'n restaurant aanbeveel, sou ons in 'n Kersmaaltyd belangstel, en die spyskaart en kontakbesonderhede aangestuur. Ons het haar gastehuis reeds aan verskeie vriende aanbeveel en bly weer daar volgende keer.

We stayed Christmas Eve and our hostess, Gerda, made an effort to let us know the night before that there would be no fuel available in the town that day. She also recommended a restaurant, should we be interested in a Christmas meal, and forwarded the menu and contact details. We have already recommended her guest house to several friends and will stay there again next time.

Gerieflike oorslaap in die interessante Philippolis.

Ons verkies al jare lank om op Philippolis te oornag. Die pad vanaf Colesberg en na Trompsburg is nou in 'n goeie toestand en die trokke op die N1 word vrygespring. Kanon Gastehuis se goed geprys en gerieflik. Die ander gastehuis wat ons altyd gebruik het, het peperduur geword. Reken gerus genoeg tyd in om die museums te besoek.

Comfortable overnight stay in the interesting Philippolis.

We have preferred to spend the night at Philippolis for years. The road from Colesberg to Trompsburg is now in good condition and the trucks on the N1 are being spared. Kanon Guesthouse's well priced and comfortable. The other guest house we used to use became very expensive. Feel free to allow enough time to visit the museums.

Daar is min dinge wat egte plattelandse gasvryheid klop.

Ons verblyf was die perfekte definisie van gasvryheid. Die oornagplek was perfek, alles wat nodig is en meer (daardie heerlike kombuistafel!) was daar maar daarby was die gasvryheid wat ons nog voor ons aankoms verwelkom het. Byvoorbeeld navraag en gepaardgaande voorstelle van wat/waar ons kon gaan eet, tydige rigtingaanwysers, ens. En vir 'n kort tydjie het mens regtig gevoel dat die gejaag afgeskud kon word. Onder andere die heerlike rustige pad na en van Philippolis met geen geveg met groot lorries nie. Beveel ten sterkste aan.

There are few things that beat genuine country hospitality.

Our stay was the perfect definition of hospitality. The place to stay was perfect, everything needed and more (that delicious kitchen table!) was there, but on top of that was the hospitality that welcomed us even before our arrival. For example inquiry and accompanying suggestions of what/where we could go to eat, timely direction indicators, etc. And for a short time one really felt that the rush could be shaken off. Among other things, the lovely peaceful road to and from Philippolis with no fight with big lorries. Highly recommend.

Slightly out of the way between Gauteng and Cape Town, good value for money, place can be up-geared to a next level, but not with the rates they charge. They have a nice braai lapa/facility. So, get charcoal on the way, and some meat. Gerda (I believe the owner) is very accommodating. This is an old family house, so be prepared for old family pictures on the walls. Clean and safe.

Skoon akkommodasie teen 'n redelike tarief.

Ons was 'n paar keer rondgeskuif voor ons oorgeslaap het. Oorspronklik het ons 'n familiekamer bespreek, maar is toe nog 2 keer geskuif na ander kamers. Die prys het egter dieselfde gebly en ons het ons eie badkamers gehad. Ongelukkig vir ons was daar 'n elektrisiteitsprobleem in Philippolis en kon ons nie Gerda telefonies kontak nie. Ons moes dus bietjie rondry om die ingang na die gastehuis te kry. As gevolg van die elektrisiteitsprobleem het geen van die telefoonnommers op die hekke gewerk nie en kon ek haar ook nie via selfoon kontak nie. Ons was ook nie bewus daarvan dat ons 'n kombuis met ander mense moes deel nie. Dit word nie genoem op die advertensie nie. Gelukkig was daar 'n restaurant waar ons iets te ete kon kry. Die huis kort bietjie regmaak en verf en moet dalk bietjie oopgemaak word, sodat vars lug die bedompigheid in die huis kan verdryf. Ons het betaal vir 'n kamer met elektrisiteit, maar het dit toe nie gekry nie. Andersins is Philippolis 'n pragtige Karoodorpie en Gerda was baie vriendelik.

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

Clean accommodation at a reasonable rate.

We were moved around a few times before we slept over. We originally booked a family room but were then moved 2 more times to other rooms. However, the price remained the same and we had our own bathrooms. Unfortunately for us there was an electricity problem in Philippolis and we could not contact Gerda by phone. So we had to drive around a bit to find the entrance to the guest house. Due to the electricity problem, none of the phone numbers on the gates worked and I couldn't contact her via mobile either. We were also not aware that we had to share a kitchen with other people. This is not mentioned on the ad. Luckily there was a restaurant where we could get something to eat. The house needs some fixing and painting and may need to be opened up a bit, so that fresh air can dispel the stuffiness in the house. We paid for a room with electricity but then did not get it. Otherwise, Philippolis is a beautiful Karo village and Gerda was very friendly.

Kanon het presies gebied wat ek nodig gehad het, stilte en rustigheid.

Die selfsorgeenheid waarin ek gebly het was ruim, warm en huislik, gerieflik met alles wat nodig is om gerieflik te wees. Kanon is ook baie sentraal, net 'n paar minute se stap van alle besienswaardighede, restaurante, boekwinkels. Vriendelike en hartlike verwelkoming en regdeur my verblyf het Gerda my laat tuis voel soos familie - terwyl ek baie privaatheid gehad het, was sy altyd beskikbaar indien hulp nodig was.

'n Aangename, vriendelike ontvangs. Persoonlike belangstelling.

Die standaard is goed. Daar was net twee probleme: Die yskas se deur maak nie mooi toe nie, met gevolglik 'n oormatige aanpaksel van ys in die vrieshokkie. Dit het 'n groot invloed op die funksionering van die yskas. Die bed het geweldig gekraak - jy dink net aan omdraai, dan kraak hy al. Ons het net oornag, maar was aangenaam verras met Philippolis. Sal weer moet gaan vir 'n meer omvattende oorstaan.

A pleasant, friendly reception. Personal interest.

The standard is good. There were only two problems: The fridge door didn't close properly, resulting in excessive ice in the freezer compartment. It has a big influence on the functioning of the refrigerator. The bed creaking noises - you just think of turning around and its already creaking. We just stayed overnight but were pleasantly surprised with Philippolis. Will have to go again for a more comprehensive stand.

We had a wonderful stay in the neat, well-furnished place. But, the best thing about this place is the friendly help and hospitality of our hostess, Gerda. Great stay! Will definitely be back!

Uitstekende waarde, silwerskoon en behulpsame bestuur.

Ons was 'n groep van 8 - het heerlik in die huis geslaap en onder die lapa tot laat nag gekuier en die sterreprag bewonder - sonder dat dit ons 'n arm en 'n been gekos het.

Excellent value, spotless and helpful management.

We were a group of 8 - slept great in the house and hung out under the lapa until late at night admiring the stars - without it costing us an arm and a leg.

Vriendelike en behulpsame kliëntediens. Waarde vir geld vir 1 nag oorslaap.

Weet dit is nie 'n B&B nie, maar koffie en beskuit (3 klein stukkies) was bietjie min vir 2 persone. Verder was dit skoon en sal beslis weer daar kom oornag.

Ons het 7.30 by Kanon gastehuis aangekom. Gerda die gasvrou het ons ontvang en al die eetplekke ens verduidelik. Ons kamers en beddegoed was pragtig en alles was absoluut baie netjies. Die kombuis en badkamer pragtig en skoon. Daar is lieflike braaigeriewe met 'n swembad en lapa ook. Als uitstaande gehalte. Ek beveel Kanon gastehuis aan agv die prag.

Expected more from 4 star in terms of modern facility.

The room looks like a store room that a couple of old beds and some old furniture was put inside. There is no proper decorations. Noise from branches scratching on the roof in the wind as well as uncomfortable bed - assisted to cause loss of sleep. The shower door is broken and a curtain was placed in it place. The shower water temperature was hard to regulate, either too hot or too cold.

Vriendelike diens met netjiese en skoon verblyf.

Met 3 kinders is dit nie altyd maklik om goedkoper verblyf te kry vir 'n oornagplek nie. Kanon Gastehuis het spesiale aanpassings gemaak sodat ons gesin gemaklik kan oorslaap vir 'n redelike goeie prys. Hulle maak ook besprekings by die restaurante op die dorp indien nodig. Die plek is goed toegerus met yskas, mikrogolf, en al die basiese eetgerei vir 4 mense.

Friendly service with neat and clean accommodation.

With 3 children it isn't always easy finding cheaper accommodation for an overnight place. Kanon Guest House made special changes so that our family could stay over comfortably at a reasonable rate. They also make bookings for restaurants in town if needed. The place is well equipped with a fridge, microwave and all the basic cutlery for 4 people.

Rustig.

Lekker plek om oor te slaap in 'n beeldskone dorp. Het wonderlike diens gekry van Gerda af. Nog voor ons op pad was, was daar gevra of ons dalk 'n matras nodig het vir ons baba, of 'n bespreking gemaak moet word vir aandete. Daar is selfs 'n bababad verskaf om ons baba in te bad. Ons is baie beïndruk en sal definitief weer daar gaan bly!

Nice place to sleep over in a picturesque town. Got great service from Gerda. Even before we were on our way, we were asked if we might need a mattress for our baby, or if a reservation should be made for dinner. There was even a baby bath provided to bathe our baby. We are very impressed and will definitely stay there again!
