Hartlike verwelkoming in die Karoo.

Chantel het ons dadelik laat tuis voel. Ons het goeie nagrus gehad en die oggend het gevolg met 'n heerlike Karoo ontbyt. Meer as waarde vir jou geld. Kamers was skoon en netjies, en die diens was uitstekend.

A warm welcome to the Karoo.

Chantel immediately made us feel at home. We had a good night's rest and the morning followed with a delicious Karoo breakfast. More than value for money. Rooms were clean and tidy, and the service was excellent.

Was 'n nostalgiese familie-uitstappie en Calvinia was die regte plek om te oornag.

Die plekkie is baie oulik. Goed ingerig. Sou net 'n toaster in die kamer geniet het aangesien ons self ontbyt gemaak het. En die oulikste Smeg keteltjie.

Room was clean and comfortable.

Booked a self-catering unit, but due to circumstances, builders were not finished with renovations. We were asked to move to a room with an en-suite and a small kitchenette. There were no washing up facilities, which made it awkward for self-catering. Management did assist with a portable braai drum, wood, crockery, and cutlery.

Rustig, skoon, heerlike ontbyt.

Ons het vir 1 aand by Katryns oorgeslaap. Daar was genoeg plek om ons boswa te parkeer sonder om te sukkel - kon net inry, om 'n groot draai en uit. Hulle was vriendlik genoeg om vir ons krag te gee vir die boswa se yskas. Die kamer en badkame was pragtig skoon en netjies met ALLES wat mens mag nodig kry. Die badkamer was huge. Ons het vroeg die volgende oggend vertrek en die lekkerste wegneem-ontbyt nog ooit gekry (met my spesifieke diëetversoeke). Ek sal Katryns definitief aanbeveel en weer daar bly.

Quiet, clean, delicious breakfast.

We stayed at Katryns for 1 night. There was plenty of room to park our forest van without any difficulty - could just drive in, round a big bend and out. They were kind enough to give us power for the forest van's fridge. The room and bathroom were beautifully clean and tidy with EVERYTHING one might need. The bathroom was huge. We left early the next morning and got the best takeaway breakfast ever (with my specific dietary requests). I would definitely recommend Katryns and stay there again.

Ek het my verblyf so geniet.

So mooi gastehuis, baie netjies en skoon, van die indraai tot by die kamer is als so mooi, groot groen grasperk en baie bome. Die kamer was so lekker koel toe ons daar instap, goeie linne. Veilige area ons het heerlik gaan stap en teruggekom met die lekkerste aandete. Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang tot die personeel is oulik en baie behulpsaam, vol DStv was 'n bonus en goeie internet. Katryn’s sal ek vir elke persoon aanbeveel en julle sien ons vir seker weer. Ps: Baie dankie vir al die extras, chocolate, al die koffie om van te kies, gebottelde water en die lekker sepie.

We enjoyed our one night stopover in Calvinia and would definitely stay at Katryns again.

We received a friendly welcome and apologies for there being no water supply in the town. Loadshedding had affected Katryns borehole, so we were supplied with a number of 5L containers of water, which we were very grateful for. We were directed to a nearby pizza restaurant and enjoyed getting a sense of the friendly locals in Calvinia.

Onverbeterlike ervaring.

Ek verwag 'n redelike hoë standaard as ek 'n sekere bedrag betaal vir verblyf. Maar dit raak rêrig iets besonders as mens se verwagtinge oortref word. Toe ons aankom het Chantelle vir ons die beste sosaties, braaibroodjies en wortelslaai gereed gehad op 'n gedekte tafel en alles wat nodig was vir 'n lekker braai. Daar was 'n sjokolade op ons bed, vars melk in die yskas en ons slaapkamer en badkamers was baie netjies, ruim en skoon. Bowenal was die prys van die kos en verblyf rêrig sakpas. Ek sal Katryns vir seker aanbeveel.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Unbeatable experience.

I expect a fairly high standard when I pay a certain amount for accommodation. But it really touches something special when one's expectations are exceeded. When we arrived, Chantelle had the best roasts, barbecue sandwiches and carrot salad ready for us on a set table and everything needed for a nice barbecue. There was a chocolate on our bed, fresh milk in the fridge and our bedroom and bathrooms were very neat, spacious and clean. Above all, the price of the food and accommodation was quite affordable. I would recommend Katryns for sure.

Dit was beslis nie uitstaande nie, maar ek glo jy kry waarvoor betaal het.

Dit was beslis nie wat ek gewoond aan is nie. Dit lyk of alles so aangelap is. Die ligging het my ook nie aangestaan nie.

It certainly wasn't outstanding, but I believe you get what you pay for.

It was definitely not what I'm used to. Everything seems to be so patched up. The location didn't appeal to me either.

Baie dankie dat jy die tyd geneem het om die resensie te skryf, Henry Oosthuizen. Wat vir jou aangeplak voel, is my lewe en my trots. Wat ek doen, doen ek met baie liefde en trots. Jammer dat dit nie vir jou lekker was. My foto’s op die webwerf is presies wat jy kry. Ongelukkig kan ons nie almal altyd tevrede hou nie, en waarvan ek hou, is nie altyd almal se smaak nie.

THE BEDDING IS NOT UP TO STANDARD. DUVET INNER'S DAYS ARE OVER, SO ARE BLANKETS AT FEET.

Dankie vir jou resensie. Dis baie hartseer dat jy ons 1 vir als rate. Julle aircon het ek al die oggend aangesit vir n lekker koel kamer in die hitte van Calvinia. Ek het 'n vars blommetjie ingesit om julle spesiaal te laat voel, gesorg dat alles in plek is. Jy is kwaad oor ek gevra het van die handdoeke en my 'n 1 rate vir alles? Ek is by die perseel 24/7 julle is baie welkom om te se as iets nie reg is nie. Die nommer wat voorsien was is verkeerd so ek kon op geen manier kommunikeer met julle nie.

Ongeorganiseerd, vervalle en geen kliëntediens nie.

Met ons aankoms het ek die besprekingsdokument gewys. Die dame wat ons ontvang het het nie geweet wat om te doen nie. Na 'n gesprek tussen personeel het 'n kaalvoetdame ons deur 'n donker steeg na ons verblyf geneem. Sy het die kamer oopgesluit, die lugversorger aangeskakel en geloop. Toe ek vra na die restaurant het sy net gesê "gaan kyk". Daar was geen internetverbinding nie en die TV het nie gewerk nie. Ons voertuig het 40 meter van die kamer af gestaan en was nie veilig nie. Hierdie was die swakste verblyf wat ek nog ooit bespreek het. Sal dit nooit aanbeveel nie. Bly weg.

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

Disorganized, run down and no customer service.

When we arrived I showed the booking document. The lady who received us did not know what to do. After a discussion between staff, a barefoot lady took us through a dark alley to our accommodation. She unlocked the room, turned on the air conditioner and walked. When I asked about the restaurant she just said "go check". There was no internet connection and the TV was not working. Our vehicle was parked 40 meters from the room and was not safe. This was the worst accommodation I have ever booked. Would never recommend it. stay away

Goeiedag Thys,

Dankie vir die resensie en ek vra omverskoning dat jy nie jou verblyf geniet het nie.

Ek wil graag bevestig of die resensie wel vir die regte bespreking bedoel is omrede die terugvoering wat verskaf is nie ooreenstem met ons akkommodasie nie. Die TV, Wi-Fi, lugversorging word getoets voor die gaste arriveer en sal dus nie dit ignoreer nie.

Ons is by die akkommodasie en sou beskikbaar wees indien die gerapporteer sou word.

Skoon en netjies. Fyn detail.

Baie skoon netjiese verblyf. Daar is aandag aan fyn detail gegee. Heerlik geslaap. Heerlike tuisgebakte beskuit vir oggend koffie en baie lekker aandete wat deur die gasvrou voorberei is. Dit moet net vooraf gereel word met gasvrou. Nie ingesluit by tarief, maar baie billike prys.

Ons het die Tankwa Camino gaan stap. Chantel het uit haar pad gegaan om ons by te staan met vervoer, vroegoggend ontbyt en die lekkerste bederf toe ons terugkom. Dit was 'n heerlike tuiskoms om weer by hulle te kon oorslaap net voordat ons moes terugreis. Hulle is altyd beskikbaar, baie professioneel en behulpsaam waar moontlik.

Hi Jacobus

Baie dankie vir die mooi resensie, op ons kamer beskrywing staan Katryn’s se badkamer is oop, die res van ons kamers het almal toe badkamers. Ek sou julle met die grootste liefde skuif as julle gepraat het. Ek het gedink dis okay met julle oor Jul spesifiek Katryn’s kamer bespreek het.

Alhoewel ons net vir een aand oorgeslaap het sal ons volgende keer langer kuier.

Ons was hartlik deur Chantel ontvang en was ook vinnig 'n selfsorg met 'n braai aan ons gegee alhoewel ons nie bespreek het. Al die nodige vir die braai was ook verskaf sonder enige bybetalings. Ons sal definitief volgende jaar weer terug keer vir die blomme. Dankie Chantel.

Although we only stayed for one night, next time we will visit longer.

We were warmly received by Chantel and were also quickly given a self-catering accommodation with a braai even though we had not booked. All the necessary for the braai was also provided without any additional payments. We will definitely return next year for the flowers. Thank you Chantel.

Friendly owner, situated on outskirts with view on industrial area.

Chantel prepared a lovely supper for us, also breakfast was good. However: She forgot to switch on the geyser so that we had a very refreshing shower and the premises are heavily infested with very aggressive mosquitoes.

So sorry about the geyser, it actually packed up and was replaced the next day. The industrial view is our town's silos with the beautiful mountain at the back. Thank you for taking the time to write a review.

Jy word verwelkom deur 'n gasvrou met 'n glimlag terwyl sy jou na jou kamer neem wat netjies en skoon en heerlik ryk met die temperatuur in die kamer presies reg. Ons reël toe vir ontbyt vir die volgende oggend wat heerlik was werklik die moeite weerd, jou verblyf was vir jou geld en lekker geslaap. Kom ek stel dit so ons het later gery as beplan in Calvinia gaan bly by Kartryns, want dus die moeitewerd sal ek terug gaan? Beslis dis die moeite werd.

Onprofessioneel.

Met aankoms was daar geen aanduiding van waar om aan te meld nie. Ek moes basies iemand gaan soek. Sy gee toe nie vir my die kamer se sleutel nie, ek moes later daarvoor vra, waarna die verkeerde sleutel aan my oorhandig is. Het nie aangebied om te help met bagasie nie. Ek is 'n dame en reis alleen met 'n 20+ kg tas. Werf baie bedrywig met kinders wat skree. Kamer is baie lig in die nag. Met 2de nag (dit was nie 2 opeenvolgende nagte nie), het ek 'ingeboek' rondom 02:00. Daar is toe ongeveer 2 ure later aan my deur geklop en vir my gevra om na 'n ander kamer te skuif, omdat hulle my per ongeluk in die verkeerde kamer geplaas het. Ontbyt was albei kere baie lekker.

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

Unprofessional.

On arrival there was no indication of where to check in. I basically had to go find someone. She did not give me the room's key, I had to ask for it later, after which I was handed the wrong key. Did not offer to help with luggage. I am a lady and traveling alone with a 20+ kg suitcase. Recruit very busy with screaming children. Room is very light at night. On 2nd night (it wasn't 2 consecutive nights), I 'checked in' around 2am. Then about 2 hours later there was a knock on my door and I was asked to move to another room because they had accidentally put me in the wrong room. Breakfast was very nice both times.

Alles behalwe aangenaam.

Ek het Kapokkie, met 'n koninggrootte-bed en 3/4-bed bespreek en die deposito daarop betaal, maar is na die betaling in kennis gestel dat Kapokkie nie meer beskikbaar is nie. Slegs 'n kamer met 1 dubbelbed is uitgehou vir ons. Omdat die restaurant toe was vir die tyd wat ek geboek het, was daar gereël vir 'n aandete in die kamer, maar selfs dit was ook nie berei toe ons teen 19:38 daar aankom nie. Die dame wat aflos in die eienaar se plek het gespook en spartel om my en my seun na 'n groot genoeg kamer te skuif en aangebied om vir ons ons aandete te berei, maar omdat dit alreeds 20:40 was, het ons dit van die hand gewys, want ons was moeg en wou nie so lank wag vir ons aandete nie. Die dame het 'n vinnige vingerete aanmekaar geslaan. Baie dankbaar daarvoor. Die honde het heelnag voor die kamervenster geblaf en het nie reageer toe daar vir hulle beveel is om te gaan lê nie, dus was ons nag baie lank. Was regtig 'n baie onaangename ervaring.

Anything but pleasant.

I booked Kapokkie, with a king size bed and 3/4 bed and paid the deposit on it, but was informed after payment that Kapokkie is no longer available. Only a room with 1 double bed was reserved for us. Because the restaurant was closed for the time I booked, there was an arrangement for a dinner in the room, but even that was not prepared when we arrived at 19:38. The lady on duty in the owner's place ghosted and scrambled to move me and my son to a room big enough and offered to prepare us our dinner, but as it was already 8.40pm we had it from the declined, because we were tired and didn't want to wait so long for our dinner. The lady threw together a quick finger meal. Very grateful for that. The dogs barked all night in front of the bedroom window and did not respond when they were ordered to lie down, so our night was very long. Was really a very unpleasant experience.

Na 'n dag se lang reis was dit wonderlik om daar te oornag in 'n ontspanne en vriendelike huislike omgewing.

Ons was hartlik ontvang na 'n lang rit in 'n netjiese, skoon en veilige gastehuis. Alles wat benodig word is in die kamer en dit was geensins nodig om weer in die kar te klim en aandete te gaan soek nie. 'n Heerlike aandete was bedien in die tuin op die grasperk en was werklik ontspanne gewees. Ons sal Katryns enige tyd vir enige kieskeurige reisiger aanbeveel.

Dit was fantasties.

Een van die beste plekke waar ek al gebly het. Mense is ongelooflik vriendelik en hulpvaardig, kamer is pragtig, groot, ruim, skoon, netjies, lekker koffie en ons het heerlike middag koek en tee gekoop teen ongelooflike billike pryse. Alles was net fantasties!

A lovely, homely atmosphere provided by an excellent host.

We really enjoyed staying at Katryns. Chantel is a great host. She was present when we arrived late afternoon and the cappuccino served on arrival in the pretty garden was a lovely touch. Our room was spacious and comfortable and so was the bathroom. There was an unforeseen power failure in the evening. This was resolved within half an hour without any trouble or complaints. Breakfast included yogurt with fresh fruit and a generous English breakfast with delicious coffee. We will not hesitate to recommend the establishment to friends and family.

Veilige en netjiese verblyf in 'n mooi omgewing.

Die diens was vriendelik. Kamers was goed toegerus. Ons het net kamers bespreek, maar wou graag vleis braai. Fasiliteit was geskep en selfs hout was voorsien. Dit is egter ongemaklik sonder 'n skottelgoedwasbak in die vertrek. 'n Groter vullisdrom buite die fasiliteit sal ook baie nuttig wees.

Een nag oorgeslaap.

Die gasvrou was baie vriendelik en het geen moeite ontsien om spesiaal vir ons 'n aandete voor te berei nie. Die ontbyt was net so heerlik. Ons het egter die gastehuis se atmosfeer effens kil ervaar, seker maar omdat dit 'n koue aand was en ons die enigste gaste in die eetkamer was. Plek-plek kort die gebou en kamers aan die binnekant 'n bietjie herstelwerk, alhoewel dit vir sommige 'n soort van 'n bekoring mag hê. Alles was netjies en skoon en ons het lekker geslaap.

Overslept one night.

The hostess was very friendly and spared no effort to prepare a special dinner for us. The breakfast was just as delicious. However, we found the guest house's atmosphere slightly chilly, probably because it was a cold evening and we were the only guests in the dining room. In places, the building and rooms on the inside need a bit of repair, although for some it may have a kind of charm. Everything was neat and clean and we slept well.

Hartlike en vriendelike sorg.

Ons het vanaf die Kaap gaan vakansie hou in die Kgalagadi en het tydens ons reis by Katryns oornag. Ek het met Claudia gereël dat ons laat sou arriveer en dat ons graag aandete sou wou hê. Sy het ons baie vriendelik ontvang en het vir ons 'n heerlike lamsnek en groentegereg en nagereg gereed gehad. Die kamer was netjies, skoon en mooi ontwerp met moderne meubels en 'n goeie bed. Ons het twee klein kindertjies en daar was genoeg ruimte in die kamer vir hulle om te speel en rond te hardloop. Die ontbyt was heerlik! Die netheid, vriendelike ontvangs en goeie diens tydens ons verblyf was fantasties en ons sal graag terugkeer na Katryns.

Oornagverblyf by Katryns oppad Seepunt toe.

Ons het 'n oornagplek gesoek waar ons motor en sleepwa veilig kon staan. Ons is hartlik ontvang deur Petronella en gehelp om ons sleepwa veilig te bêre. Sy was ook so gaaf om vir ons plek te bespreek vir aandete by die Blou Naartjie, wat heerlik was. Die kamer is netjies en skoon en baie goed toegerus, maar baie koud. Die lugversorging was op warm gestel, maar was nie baie effektief nie. Ek stel voor dat 'n verwarmer liewers aangeskaf moet word om die kamer warm te maak. Die ontbyt was heerlik!

Overnight stay at Katryns en route to Seepunt.

She was also kind enough to book us a place for dinner at the Blou Naartjie, which was delicious. The room is neat and clean and very well equipped, but very cold. The air conditioning was set to hot but was not very effective. I suggest that a heater should be purchased rather to warm the room. The breakfast was delicious!

Tydens ons verblyf was aandete 'n probleem. Die hotel was toe vir 'n funksie ander eetplekke was vol. Ons is toe verwys na The Shack waar daar 'n beperkte spyskaart was, alhoewel die kos wat ons bestel het, besonders aangenaam en goedkoop was, sal die plek self my nooit weer sien nie.

Owner very friendly. She made a booking for us at the Blou Naartjie, fantastic food. Breakfast also delicious. Really a must stay. They accommodate every convenience for a traveller and even to stay over for a few nights. Lovely rooms. Lovely bedding.

Katryns is pragtig. Die kamers is lekker groot, baie netjies en die interior is pragtig. Dis voorwaar een van die lekkerste gastehuise waarin ons nog gebly het. Definitief waarde vir geld en sal dit aanbeveel vir enige iemand.

Baie dankie aan Chantelle vir jou moeite en aandag om toe te sien dat jou gaste spesiaal en waardeer voel. Die kamers is pragtig en deeglik toegerus. Die ekstra moeite met blommetjies, cappuccino en vars water in die yskas word opreg waardeer. Ek sal Katryns sterk aanbeveel! 10 uit 10!

Skoon, netjies, vriendelik, huislik en uiters gasvry!

Baie dankie vir 'n baie aangename oornagstop by Katryns op pad Kaap toe! Moegeploeg ná 'n baie intense jaar van woel en werskaf, ry ons die werf binne en word ons dadelik hartlik ontvang en tuisgemaak in ons lieflike, skoon, keurige lêplekkie! Ons doen navraag oor braaigeriewe en siedaar: Alles netjies voorberei spesiaal in ons eie privaat hoekie! Sag en lekker geslaap en sommer uitgerus aangesit vir 'n heerlike ontbyt, reg vir ons vakansie! Baie, baie dankie vir 'n kosbare stukkie bederf in julle Hantam!

Thank you very much for a very pleasant overnight stop at Katryns on the way to the Cape! Tired of plowing after a very intense year of hustle and bustle, we drive into the yard and are immediately warmly welcomed and made to feel at home in our lovely, clean, neat little place! We inquire about braai facilities and lo and behold: Everything neatly prepared specially in our own private corner! Slept soft and well and just rested and sat down for a delicious breakfast, ready for our holiday! Many, many thanks for a precious piece of pampering in your Hantam!

Ontdek die Karoo gasvryheid en uniekheid van vooraf!

Hierdie gastehuis is werklikwaar iets besonders, die eetsaal se houtvloere en kaggel gee 'n warm gevoel van gasvryheid, onder knellende droogtes word die tuin steeds na beste versorg! Chantel is waarlik die toonbeeld van nederigheid! Haar kamers is besonders versier met baie fyn detail orals! Die restaurant waar aandetes vooraf gereël word het sekerlik van die mees keurigste aandetes opgelewer! Die koffie is voorwaar heerlik! Baie dankie vir die ekstra myl wat Katryns vir my geloop het gedurende my verblyf. Alle mooi wense vir julle aanbouings en ons vertrou dat hierdie pragtige dorpie een van die dae sal reens kry!

Rediscover the Karoo hospitality and peculiarity!

This guesthouse is really something special, the dining room's wooden floors and fireplace give a warm sense of hospitality, while the garden is still being maintained during this drought stricken time! Chantel is truly the epitome of humility! Her rooms are decorated with fine details! The restaurant, where dinner is arranged in advance, has surely been one of the most delicious meals! The coffee is truly delicious! Thank you for the extra mile that Katryns went for me during my stay. Best wishes for your additions and we trust that this beautiful village will get rain one of the days!

Wonderlikste netjiese Gastehuis!

Na ons 14 dae vakansie was Katryns die laaste stop voor ons terug keur huis toe. En was dit nou vir jou die beste bederf! Netjies en stylvol! Die bederfies op ons beddens was vir ons baie oulik. Dankie vir die gasvrou Chantel wat ons na ons kamers geneem het en ons dadelik laat welkom voel het. Ons kamers het elk een 'n unieke styl gehad. Wat vir my baie besonders was is hulle aandete en ontbyt! Heerlik heerlik heerlik verby! Selfs vir die kinders was dit die lekkerste verblyf van ons hele vakansie! Ons sal beslis Katryns aan beveel as die beste verblyf in Calvinia. Ons sien julle weer binnekort!

Most wonderful neat Guest House!

After our 14 day holiday, Katryns was the last stop before we returned home. And now it was the best treat for you! Neat and stylish! The treats on our beds were very cute for us. Thanks to the hostess Chantel who took us to our rooms and immediately made us feel welcome. Our rooms each had a unique style. What was very special for me was their dinner and breakfast! Deliciously deliciously over! Even for the children it was the most enjoyable stay of our entire holiday! We would definitely recommend Katryns as the best accommodation in Calvinia. We'll see you again soon!

Vyfster verblyf vir seker! Baie dankie.

Baie dankie aan LekkeSlaap (Claudette) en die gasvrou van Katryn's. Dit was voorwaar 'n heerlike oornagverblyf. Ek en my man het dit regtig baie geniet. Mense was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en gasvry. Alles was onberispelik netjies en skoon en ons het niks kortgekom nie. Baie baie dankie, ons kinders (Heinrich en Nicolette Heunis) en kleinkinders gaan ook daar oornag in Oktober wanneer hulle met verlof gaan. Dit is die ideale verblyf vir enige iemand en is gerieflik redelik sentraal tussen Kathu en die Kaap. Beslis 5 sterre werd.

Thank you very much, our children (Heinrich and Nicolette Heunis) and grandchildren are going to overnight there in October when they are on leave. It is the ideal accommodation for anyone and is conveniently located fairly centrally between Kathu and the Cape. Definitely worth 5 stars.

Ons bly altyd lekker by Katryns, lekker rustige deel van dorp en baie vriendelike ontvangs. Kamers is altyd netjies en baie mooi dekor en kwaliteit beddens/lakens ens. Die ontbyt is altyd baie smaakvol, groot en baie mooi voorgesit. Het ook 'n aandete daar gehad wat uit die boeke was! Sal vir seker Katryns aanbeveel vir enige persoon wat in Calvinia oornag.

Verblyf hier was glad nie aangenaam nie. Vuil verblyf en yskoud.

Ongelukkig het Katryns glad nie aan ons behoeftes voldoen nie. Die kamers is vervalle en lyk afgeleef en is glad nie skoon nie. Die blindings in beide kamers was stukkend en een kamer kyk uit op 'n agterplaas vol kartondose en gemors. Alhoewel daar lugversorgers in die kamer is, werk dit glad nie effektief nie. Ons was yskoud en het amper nie 'n oog toegemaak nie. Ons het 'n klein elektriese verwarmertjie gekry om te help, maar dit het aanhoudend die krag laat "trip". Met aankoms het my man vuil klere en gebruikte handdoeke op die badkamervloer gekry wat wel op navraag daaroor vinnig verwyder is. Dit was egter duidelik dat die badkamer nie skoongemaak is voor ons verblyf nie, en ons het dus glad nie die badkamers gebruik nie. Die rol toiletpapier is nie op 'n houer teen die muur vas nie, maar staan op 'n rakkie. Dit val dus maklik af en dit was vuil met 'n bruin aanpaksel aan die kant, wat 'n mens laat sidder. Ons het dus maar eerder ons eie sneesdoekies gaan uithaal om te gebruik. Die enigste ligpunt was die lekker ontbyt en koffie die volgende oggend. Dit is hartseer om so 'n negatiewe resensie te moet skryf, maar ek wil graag hê dat die eienaars werk maak van die probleme. My advies aan alle gastehuise: Slaap ten minste een aand in jul eie kamers om 'n kykie "agter die skerms" te kry.

Stay here was not pleasant at all. Dirty accommodation and freezing cold.

Unfortunately, Katryns did not meet our needs at all. The rooms are dilapidated and look run down and are not clean at all. The blinds in both rooms were broken and one room looked out onto a backyard full of cardboard boxes and junk. Although there are air conditioners in the room, they are not working effectively at all. We were freezing cold and hardly slept a wink. We got a small electric heater to help, but it kept "tripping" the power. Upon arrival, my husband found dirty clothes and used towels on the bathroom floor, which were quickly removed upon inquiry. However, it was clear that the bathroom had not been cleaned prior to our stay, so we did not use the bathrooms at all. The roll of toilet paper is not fixed to a holder on the wall, but stands on a shelf. So it falls off easily and it was dirty with a brown coating on the side, which makes one shudder. So we went to take out our own tissues to use instead. The only bright spot was the nice breakfast and coffee the next morning. It is sad to have to write such a negative review, but I would like the owners to work on the problems. My advice to all guesthouses: Sleep at least one night in your own rooms to get a glimpse "behind the scenes".

Lynelle en Gert, ek is so verskriklik jammer dat alles verkeerd geloop het met julle bespreking by ons. Ek wens daar was iets wat ek kon doen om jammer te sê .My gastehuis is my trots en ek probeer ten alle tye my gaste op die hande dra. Ons het dadelik aandag gegee aan die air-conditioning en aan ons krag probleem. As julle ooit weer die kant toe kom sal ek dit baie graag wil regstel met 'n gratis nag, om op te maak vir my groot fout.

Ten spyte van die feit dat dit sopnat was in Calvinia was die verblyf uitstekend.

Sien gerus die sterre.

Ons was baie goed ontvang en die diens is uitstekend.

Die kamer wat aan ons toegeken was, was baie netjies en skoon. Die enigste negatiewe kommentaar is miskien om aan 'n ander vorm van kamerverhitting te dink vir die winter. Die lugversorging het goed gewerk, maar is nie ons eerste keuse vir verhitting nie. Ontbyt is op tyd bedien en baie smaaklik met miskien die uitsondering van een bord se eiers wat hard gebak was terwyl hulle sag, maar omgedraai, bestel was.

We were well received and the service was excellent.

The room assigned to us was neat and clean. The only negative comment is maybe a different type of room heating during the winter. The aircon worked well, but it is not our first choice of heating. Breakfast was on time and delicious, perhaps with the exception of one plate whose eggs were hard when they were ordered soft-turn.

Netjiese kamers en vriendelike ontvangs.

Die verblyf was baie goed. Weens die knellende droogte het die tuin baie agteruitgegaan en dit wil effens verwaarloos voorkom!

Neat rooms and friendly reception.

Excellent accommodation. The garden took a knock because of the drought, looks a bit neglected!
