Was a quick solution for us in need, staff were friendly and helpful.
Cottages need maintenance. Towels are patched, bedding has holes and the place needs painting. We had to find quick accommodation within 10 minutes, was any accommodation available. Will not stay there again.

Dear Ida
I’m mortified that you had a far from perfect experience. I am shocked, embarrassed and disappointed. This is inconceivable as I have just bought new cotton bath sheets and bedding for the busy season. I personally inspect the units but as I had a death in my family, I was away in Hilton that week. However, my manager Mela is absolutely brilliant and would have rectified this straight away, had you brought it to her attention. My handyman/painter is going from unit to unit checking for areas that need touching up, but unfortunately it was too late for your visit. I am so sorry.
I appreciate and thank you for your constructive feedback
Kind regards
Lynne

Was fantastic for our large family with four couples and children and babies.
Lovely walk-in kitchen with a large hearth braai. Each couple has its own bathroom so there is enough privacy. Stunning garden and trees for photos. Although it rained and leaked they tried their best and treated us deliciously with scones on the house to make up for the inconvenience.

Old fashioned charm where friends can hang out!
The place is beautiful. Close enough to Tulbagh that you can quickly go buy something short but far enough that you can feel the tranquility of the farm atmosphere.

Kloofzicht is champion!
Our stay at Kloofzicht was a treat for the soul. The facilities are excellent and the service of the staff unbeatable. Especially Miela and Ula were stars and we feasted on the delicious meals we could help. I can't wait to visit Kloofzicht again!

Lovely, spacious accommodation. Kitchen well equipped to feed lots of hungry children!
Kloofzicht offered exactly what we hoped for. We had 8 teenagers in the rain for 2 days, but with enough space, a lovely kitchen, fireplace and beautiful surroundings, we were not frustrated at all! The beds are comfortable, with lovely bedding. Always hot water, and plenty of it. The top shower doesn't have very good pressure, and we all just used the bottom shower. It is a beautiful farm, and a beautiful house. Although there were still guests staying near us, you don't feel at all as if there are still people. Private enough.

Friendly service, beautiful area.
Friendly reception, the little place is neat and the area is stunning. Thanks for all the water and milk in the fridge. The only issue was a radio or something to help you keep in touch with the outside world.

Nice.
Would only recommend giving dry wood with real firelighters. First night was cold and no fire could be made.

Thanks Sonja. I understand exactly how you feel and I'm so sorry about the wet wood. (While the heater and the hot water bottles help, they certainly lack ambience. We spent this past weekend in The Farmhouse and all the wood to be found in Tulbagh was very wet due to all the rain, rain for which we are very thankful, and also had a huge struggle to get our fire going. Our staff is however on call 24/7 and Rasta would have sorted your fire for you had you but called. All staff contact numbers appear in our welcome file.

Great to be outdoors.
Kloofzicht is a lovely house! Rasta and Miena were very lovely and helpful. We had a little trouble buying good wood in town. Perhaps the price may include an extra load of wood.

Yes, thank you, I am so pleased to hear you liked the Farmhouse and the warm friendly service.
After guests in the House last month asked for and were supplied 29 bags of wood over one weekend, we limited our complimentary supply to 4 bags daily, after which guests may buy from us or from the garage in the village. However, in your case, Rasta assures me he gave you and all the units additional wood last weekend, way in excess of the complimentary supply and says he would have happily given you more had he known it was required. As you yourself saw, my staff bend over backwards to accommodate all our guests' needs, and would have happily brought you more wood. We only recently set a limit due to the above mentioned abuse, but my staff remain totally flexible and helpful

Good affordable and simple entertainment.
Overall it was a very good experience. Tsitsi, the lady who welcomed us is a very good asset. Extremely friendly and very helpful. Two things that did bother me were the fact that there was no microwave oven in the units. Furthermore, I suggest that you turn on the fridges earlier and not an hour before the guests check in. It took all night for the ice to freeze as well as the fridge to get cold. Finally, a request to possibly watch the rugby in the afternoon (no TVs in units) was met with a "You may only watch in the kitchen". We were a bit caught off guard with the option and didn't make use of it.

Thanks you for your feedback. Please accept my apologies and see my comments in my response above regarding the ice and the microwave.
When I moved to the country from the city 10 years ago, we realized watching TV was no longer important or necessary.
I therefore do not offer TV in my units, nor mention TV on my website, so I'm sorry you arrived thinking there would be TV.
There is now however a TV in the huge Farmhouse kitchen and as we had no guests staying in the House, Tsitsi offered you this option. The kitchen is absolutely gorgeous, we've had quite a few filmshoots there, so I'm not sure why this offer offended you, but perhaps there's something lost in translation. Guests do normally go off to the Bushpub or the Tulbagh Hotel just 4 km away to watch sporting events which I'm sure would have been lots of fun but I am going to add this pointer to my guests information folder to avoid future confusion. Once again, thank you for your feedback

Although there is room for improvement, there are many positives.
There is no microwave in the cottages! Although the scenery is breathtaking, the evenings are lonely without a TV or radio. Even a variety of games would have helped. However, there is absolutely nothing missing! Everything in abundance! Bed linen spotless. Humphrey, the Great Dane, is a delight and Tsitsie is an asset to the guest house. Friendly and helpful. Negative: the fact that the fridges were only switched on shortly before our arrival. It was bloody hot and ice would be appreciated.

Thank you for your constructive criticism as this helps me to make adjustments where relevant
Although I personally do not believe in microwaves and wont have one in any of my homes or in my restaurant, I do realize I'm alone in this so there is one in Housekeeping for just such instances, which Tsitsi could have brought over to you.
We also have plenty of games that we bring out on request (due to children destroying or losing pieces) and we have now included these items on our guest information folder, so big thanks for bringing this up.
And yes, Tsitsi was very disappointed when questioned about the fridges which she did forget to switch on as she usually does first thing in the morning, a mistake I'm sure she won't repeat. She could have offered you ice from the freezer in Housekeeping had she realized; another item now added to guest info.
Although you use the word 'silverskoon', you have only awarded 3 stars for cleanliness.?...unless I've lost something in translation and do hope everything was spotless.
I'm pleased that your overall experience was a pleasant one and thank you for your time to give me this feedback
