Fantastic stay!

Relaxing after a long day's travel. Had a very comfortable night's sleep and felt refreshed for the next day's travel.

Primaverblyf!

Die lieflike landelikheid, gerieflike huisies, interessante en 'slim' tuin, goeie tariewe, en meneer Samson se insette om ons verblyf gemaklik te maak, was 'n spesiale ervaring. Inderdaad 'n prima ervaring in die pragtige Karoo!

Prime stay!

The lovely countryside, comfortable cottages, interesting and 'smart' garden, good rates, and Mr. Samson's input to make our stay comfortable, was a special experience. Indeed a great experience in the beautiful Karoo!

Ons het heerlik ontspan. Heerlik stoepe om op te sit en 'n pragtige braaiplek.

Samson het ons vriendelik ontvang en alles gewys. Dit is 'n besonderse mooi plek, 'n oase in die Karoo. Baie goed ingerig met alles wat jy nodig het.

We had a great time relaxing. Lovely porches to sit on and a beautiful braai area.

Samson received us kindly and showed us everything. It is a particularly beautiful place, an oasis in the Karoo. Very well appointed with everything you need.

Karoo kos vir die siel, ongelooflik!

Ons het 'n baie lekker tyd gehad in Merweville by die "Kom kyk Cottage", die diens was uitstekend en die kothuis was skoon en baie gerieflik. Die rustigheid van die Karoo is iets anders en die mense van die klein Karoo-dorpie is almal baie vriendelik! Ons sal beslis in die toekoms weer gaan!

Karoo food for the soul, incredible!

We had a very nice time in Merweville at the "Kom kyk Cottage", the service was excellent and the cottage was clean and very comfortable. The tranquility of the Karoo is something else and the people of the small Karoo village are all very friendly! We will definitely go again in the future!

Goed vir die siel.

Ons het heerlik gebly by Kom Kyk Cottage, het elke oomblik geniet. Ons was vriendelik ontvang deur die gasheer en 'n dierbare hond, Busta, wat op die perseel woon. Die plekkie is uiters skoon en netjies en het alles beskikbaar gehad wat ons nodig gehad het, en selfs meer. Volgende keer kan ons ligter pak! Ons kinders het dit net so geniet; die labirint met klip gepak en meer as genoeg speelplek op die erf, wat uitkyk op die rivierloop en die mooie kerk. Sou definitief langer gebly het as ons kon. Baie dankie vir alles.

Good for the soul.

We had a wonderful stay at Kom Kyk Cottage, enjoyed every moment. We were kindly received by the host and a lovely dog, Busta, who lives on the premises. The place is extremely clean and tidy and had everything available that we needed and even more. Next time we can pack lighter! Our children enjoyed it just as much; the labyrinth packed with stone and more than enough play space on the yard, which overlooks the river course and the beautiful church. Would definitely have stayed longer if we could. Thank you very much for everything.

Knus plekkie met heerlike tuin.

Ons het lekker gebly. Basies net daar geslaap. Eerste nag was die matras ongemaklik, maar dit is reggemaak. Het vir die gasvrou genoem en hulle het die matras geruil vir die tweede nag. Goeie diens, dankie. 'n Juweel sorg dat alles puik is.

Cozy place with lovely garden.

We had a nice stay. Basically just slept there. First night the mattress was uncomfortable, but that was fixed. Mentioned the hostess and they changed the mattress for the second night. Great service, thank you. A gem makes everything great.

Pragtig en rustig.

Ons het so lekker gebly en sal beslis weer daarheen gaan. Die gasheer het uit sy pad gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel en behulpsaam te wees. Alles is so skoon en netjies met die pragtigste tuin.

Rus en vrede.

Ons het oorgeslaap op pad terug van Kaapstad na Bloemfontein. Dis 'n lieflike plek van rustigheid. Soveel interessante plekkies om net te ontspan. Alles was ontsettend netjies en Samson maak seker jy het als wat jy nodig het.

Wonderlike rustyd gehad by Kom Kyk Cottage.

Waarde vir geld akkommodasie en wat 'n lieflike dorp is dit nie. Samson en sy vrou wat gasheer/vrou is, is wonderlike mense. Kan nie wag om weer te gaan kuier nie. Was 'n heerlike ontspan-naweek so saam met die Lam- en Olyffees.

Basic accommodation but everything one need is in the cottages - very clean and we really enjoyed our stay.

Samson and his wife are from Malawi and they really took very good care of us. They both were very friendly, and helpful and quickly responded to any questions / missing items we could not find in the cottages. We appreciated the fact that this was "pet-friendly" accommodation.

Pleasant, not breathtakingly special.

The cottage is bitterly cold. It was considerably warmer outside, even at night when it was already cold outside. It can really do with some form of heating that warms up the inside of the cottage. The assistant was of little use, vanishing every time he was required.

Kom Kyk Cottage 's response

Dear Anthonie,
Thank you for your valuable feedback. As discussed on the phone we deeply apologize for any inconvenience caused. Our Karoo houses are naturally cold, and so is the weather. We do not provide electric heaters due to high rates of electricity. There were hot water bottles provided as well as an extra-thick blanket in the cupboard. We will use your feedback and provide electric blankets going forward. We do have an Agatha stove which is in perfect working condition, despite the door being somewhat loose. There is a utensil for it that permanently sits on top of the stove. However, we do feel deeply saddened by your review and we hope you return in the warm summer for a different perspective of our cottage. Regards, Chantal.
