Uit die boeke.

Die lekker huisie teen die water het ons ons vreeslik baie vreugde verskaf. Ina het regtig uit haar pad uit gegaan met ekstra moeite wat dit so spesiaal vir ons gemaak het. Die huis is toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het en dis die perfekte plek om kwaliteit tyd saam met jou geliefdes te spandeer. Ons sal verseker weet daar bespreek.

Absolute perfekte oornagplek. Baie skoon en netjies en perfek geleë. Sal weer hier inboek.

Ons het heerlik gekuier by die private braaiplek en die uitsig geniet vanuit die slaapkamers. Die wilde voëllewe is iets om te beleef. Die vakansieoord is netjies en regtig die moeite werd om te besoek.

Fantasties en super veilig

King Fisher Cottage bied ongelooflike waarde vir geld. Die kothuis is toegerus met als wat jy sal benodig. Selfs dit wat ons vergeet het by die huis, kon ons in die kothuis vind. Lieflike uitsig oor die rivier. Kon lekker visvang en kuier. Baie veilig, netjies en mooi. Kan die plekkie sterk aanbeveel. Baie rustige omgewing.

Mooi geleë, maar knap.

Ons was taamlik verras om te ontdek dat die Cottage nie een huisie is nie. Die foto's vertel nie die hele storie nie. Die kamer met die en suite is apart - deurgang via 'n onderdakdek. Die kamer met die 2 beddens is net mooi dit - 'n kamer met 'n deur uit op dieselfde onderdakdek. Die derde gedeelte van die cottage bestaan uit die leefarea met kombuisie/eetarea, badkamertjie en nog 'n kamer. Die drie dele is heeltemal van mekaar geskei. Nie net is al die deure hopeloos te laag om binne bouregulasies te val nie (daar is 'n kop baie hard gestamp teen 'n deurkosyn), maar die gedeelte waarin die kombuis is voel of dit met die tyd heen al meer skuins begin staan! Ons was benoud dat die mikrogolf dalk van die yskas mag gly as gevolg hiervan. Die kombuis is goed toegerus, maar is bitter klein en het feitlik geen werkspasie nie. Jy kan ook nie by die ruim kombuistafel werk nie, want hy is bietjie lendelam. Die stoele is nie geskik vir swaarder mense nie. Die leefarea was netjies en gemaklik, so ook die dek en sy meubels. Die badkamertjie wat die 2 kamers moet deel laat jou voel of jy in 'n kas stort! Stortkop heelwat te laag, maar gee ten minste baie goeie waterdruk! Die stort in die en suite-badkamer is in die bad en het ongelukkig treurige waterdruk verskaf, wat veroorsaak het dat baie water nie binne die bad gebly het nie. Die waterdruk in beide toilette was taamlik teurig en het vir vele benoude oomblikke gesorg dat als nie gaan wegspoel nie. Daar was geen hande seep in die kleinste badkamer gewees nie. Die kamer met die 2 enkelbedjies werk ongelukkig nie om teen mekaar te stoot vir nog 'n paartjie nie - die 2 beddens is verskillend en die een matras lekker stewig, maar die ander een is pap. Die waterpomp (wat vir die waterdruk sorg) sit ook reg buite hierdie kamer se venster, so vergeet maar van 'n rustige nagrus indien jou ander huismaats dalk 'n kraan of toilet sou gebruik in die nag. Daar was wel skoon handdoeke (insluitende 2 swemhanddoeke) voorsien, sowel as addisionele komberse en selfs warmwatersakke. Die beddens was netjies oorgetrek met skoon beddegoed. Daar was genoeg warm water om almal te kon stort. 'n Addisionele afdroogdoek sou welkom gewees het in die kombuis (behalwe as ons dit misgekyk het). Daar was genoeg breekware van netjiese gehalte, maar die teelepels was dalk bietjie min. Die uitsig en rustigheid was ongelooflik, en ons is selfs deur 2 konyne besoek. Ten spyte van al die tekortkominge het ons steeds baie lekker gebly.

Nicely located, but handsome.

We were quite surprised to discover that the Cottage is not one cottage. The pictures don't tell the whole story. The room with the en suite is separate - passage via a covered deck. The room with the 2 beds is just that - a room with a door out onto the same covered deck. The third part of the cottage consists of the living area with kitchenette/dining area, bathroom and another room. The three parts are completely separated from each other. Not only are all the doors hopelessly too low to fall within building regulations (there was a head banged very hard against a door frame), but the section in which the kitchen is feels like it is starting to lean more and more over time! We were worried that the microwave might slide off the fridge because of this. The kitchen is well equipped, but is extremely small and has practically no work space. You can't work at the spacious kitchen table either, because he's a bit lame. The chairs are not suitable for heavier people. The living area was neat and comfortable, as was the deck and its furniture. The small bathroom that the 2 rooms have to share makes you feel like you are showering in a closet! Shower head way too low, but at least gives very good water pressure! The shower in the en-suite bathroom is in the bath and unfortunately provided dismal water pressure, causing a lot of water not to stay inside the bath. The water pressure in both toilets was quite poor and caused many anxious moments that everything would not be flushed away. There was no hand soap in the smallest bathroom. Unfortunately, the room with the 2 single beds does not work to push against each other for another couple - the 2 beds are different and one mattress is nice and firm, but the other one is soft. The water pump (which takes care of the water pressure) is also right outside this room's window, so forget about a peaceful night's sleep if your other housemates might use a tap or toilet at night. Clean towels (including 2 swimming towels) were provided, as well as additional blankets and even hot water bottles. The beds were neatly covered with clean linen. There was enough hot water for everyone to shower. An additional drying cloth would have been welcome in the kitchen (unless we overlooked it). There was enough crockery of a neat quality, but the teaspoons were perhaps a bit small. The view and tranquility were incredible, and we were even visited by 2 rabbits. Despite all the shortcomings we still had a very nice stay.

Was baie lekker gewees en die ligging is ook prentjiemooi.

Ek wil net 'n voorstel maak deurdat julle sal dink daaraan om die ingang na die kothuis rolstoelvriendelik sal maak indien moontlik. Ek het reeds aangedui dat ek volgende jaar weer die huis wil bepreek vir dieselfde event wat by Pine Creek aangebied word.

I just want to make a suggestion that you think about making the entrance to the cottage wheelchair friendly if possible. I have already indicated that I want to book the house again next year for the same event that is presented at Pine Creek.

Pragtige omgewing

Ideaal geleë om natuurskoon van die omgewing te kan geniet. Die eenheid is volledig toegerus vir 'n baie lekker 'glamping' ervaring. Ina doen baie moeite vir haar gaste, die koue wyn en sjokolade was 'n baie lekker bederf. Sal hierdie kothuis sterk aanbeveel vir mense wat visvang en natuur geniet. Enigste negatief was oorverdowende musiek vanaf oorkant die rivier Saterdagaand.

Beautiful surroundings

Ideally situated to enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings. The unit is fully equipped for a very nice 'glamping' experience. Ina makes a lot of effort for her guests, the cold wine and chocolate was a very nice treat. Would highly recommend this cottage to people who enjoy fishing and nature. Only negative was deafening music from across the river on Saturday night.

Ons wou nie huis toe gaan nie!

Dit was nou 'n onverwagte stukkie paradys! Net die uitsig alleen was al klaar genoeg. Ons was baie vriendelik ontvang (duidelik iemand wat baie trots op hulle plekkie is), alles was baie skoon en die fasiliteite was uitstekend. Sou so graag van ons foto's wou oplaai, die foto's op die webtuiste doen nie die kothuis en omgewing 'n guns nie! Kan Kingfisher Cottage hoogs aanbeveel - lekker familie kuierplek. Gaan beslis weer terug. Baie dankie Ina vir 'n heerlike kuiertjie, dit was glad te kort!
