Die moeite en geld werd.

Perfekte ligging om die dorp te voet te kan verken. Lakeside 3 is 'n baie netjiese eenheid. Uitsig oor die dam is prentjiemooi. Ons sal beslis weer hier oorbly!

Worth the effort and money.

Perfect location to explore the town on foot. Lakeside 3 is a very neat unit. View over the dam is picture perfect. We will definitely stay here again!

Serene weekend break away in the most beautiful setting.

Stay was excellent! Place is very peaceful with a beautiful view of the trout dam, huge trees and well-manicured gardens. Pity that the on-site restaurant is still closed; however, the town with a selection of very good restaurants is within walking distance.

Heerlike huweliksherdenking in die mooiste omgewing.

Critchley Hackle is so mooi dat 'n mens amper net daar wil bly! Pragtigste omgewing en kamers en ideaal vir 'n wegbreek. Stapafstand van alles in Dullstroom.

Alles wat ons verwag het.

Die eenheid langs die dam was baie netjies, skoon en gerieflik. Die enigste onverwagse verrassing was dat, alhoewel skoonmaakdienste beskikbaar is, dit nie ingesluit is by die tarief nie tensy verblyf direk by die lodge bespreek is. Nogtans was dit nie duur nie en werklik aangenaam. Ons sal hulle beslis weer besoek.

Everything we expected.

The unit next to the dam was very neat, clean and comfortable. The only unexpected surprise was that, although cleaning services are available, they are not included in the rate unless accommodation is booked directly with the lodge. However, it was not expensive and really enjoyable. We will definitely visit them again.

Dit was 'n wonderlike ervaring om by Lakeside Chalets Critchley Hackle Lodge te bly. Alles was net een woord en dit "wonderlik". Die restaurant op die perseel was net nie in werking nie, maar dit het ons darem die geleentheid gegee om in die dorp te gaan eet.

Countryside breakaway.

Very peaceful stay with a great view of the man-made lake. We suspect that the view is much better in the summer though. The fireplace was a highlight during the cold nights. The warmth and tranquility of the accommodation could be enjoyed in spite of the harsh winter weather. While we did not intend on watching television, we felt a larger size TV might be a good idea.

Op reis na Kruger Wildtuin en omgewing.

Al wat ek kan sê, dit is fantastiese verblyf. Mooiste uitsig en tuine en 'n voordeel is, dat jy jou voertuig net daar veilig kan parkeer en Dullstroom gaan verken te voet. Rose Cottage is naby en jy eet heerlik daar.

Ongelooflik mooi!

Pragtige plek, binne en buite. Restaurant en kamer is puik, dekor is pragtig en alles is in perfekte kondisie en skoon. Die plek staan uit bo die res. Die enigste kritiek wat ek kan gee is die "loadshedding"-batterylig in die kamer wat 'n groot teleurstelling is. Die restaurant het elektrisiteit en al die buiteligte werk terwyl daar "loadshedding" is, maar in die kamer moet mens maak doen met 'n herlaaibare mobiele batterylig. Volgens die standaard van die plek kan hulle regtig maar net 'n selfherlaaibare gloeilamp of 2 in die bestaande lampe en in die badkamer sit. Ons deel nou al sedert 2008 met "loadshedding" en daar is baie maklike en goedkoop oplossings beskikbaar wat ten minste ordentlike lig gee sonder om die bank te breek. Slegs vir hierdie rede moet ek die waarde vir geld baie laag merk, en dit is baie jammer dat iets eenvoudig soos 'n lig so 'n mooi plek kan ruïneer. Komaan, almal maak 'n plan om met alledaagse uitdagings te deal, julle kan ook. Ons sien uit om weer hier in te boek, en vertrou dat hierdie basiese vereiste reggestel sal wees.

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

Incredibly beautiful!

Beautiful place, inside and out. Restaurant and room are great, decor is beautiful and everything is in perfect condition and clean. The place stands out from the rest. The only criticism I can give is the "loadshedding" battery light in the room which is a huge disappointment. The restaurant has electricity and all the outside lights work while there is "loadshedding", but in the room you have to make do with a rechargeable mobile battery light. By the standard of the place, they can really only put a self-rechargeable light bulb or 2 in the existing lamps and in the bathroom. We've been dealing with loadshedding since 2008 and there are plenty of easy and cheap solutions available that at least provide decent light without breaking the bank. For this reason alone I have to mark the value for money very low, and it's a real shame that something as simple as a light can ruin such a beautiful place. Come on, everyone makes a plan to deal with everyday challenges, you can too. We look forward to booking here again, and trust that this basic requirement will be rectified.

We had a really enjoyable weekend at Critchley Hackle Lodge. A winter weekend in the middle of summer.

The owner gave attention to detail including a specially labeled bottle of red wine for Chalet 4, which we enjoyed by the fire on a freezing cold day 22nd Jan 2022 (summer?). We also enjoyed Sunday afternoon listening to the pianist at the restaurant sipping wine with the most beautiful view of the lake while sheltered from the chillly wind. The position of the lodge is perfect for a county atmosphere but close to the town.

Ons kon nie genoeg kry van die makoue en eende op die dam nie. Dit was wonderlik om die rustige atmosfeer in te neem en dit is 'n baie spesiale plek. Ons is hartlik ontvang en het sommer dadelik tuis gevoel. Ons sal beslis weer gaan!

Very peaceful atmosphere and wonderful view of the dam!

We couldn't get enough of the macaws and ducks on the pond. It was great to take in the peaceful atmosphere and it is a very special place. We were warmly received and immediately felt at home. We will definitely go again!

Teleurstellend.

Lakeside 3 was nie gereed toe ons Vrydagmiddag 4 uur arriveer het nie. Daar was probleme met waterpype, die mat was nat en badkamer vloer deurentyd papnat. Krane kon nie gebruik word nie.

Disappointing.

Lakeside 3 was not ready when we arrived at 4 o'clock Friday afternoon. There were problems with water pipes, the carpet was wet and the bathroom floor was constantly soaking wet. Faucets could not be used.

The bathroom had been fully renovated during the week, and unfortunately, there was a unforeseen plumbing issue during the process. We apologise for the inconvenience.

Gerieflik en pragtig!

Baie lekker gekuier om die kaggel aangesien dit meeste van die tyd gereën het. Restaurant 'n wenner. Ons kon buite op die stoep sit en die rustigheid geniet!

Had a great time around the fireplace as it rained most of the time. Restaurant a winner. We could sit outside on the porch and enjoy the tranquility!

Gerieflike, ruim kamer wat goed toegerus is, lieflike uitsig oor die dam.

Die eenheid was goed toegerus en het gerieflike stoepmeubels met 'n uitsig oor die dam. Die kamer is netjies en ruim. Die badkamer het 'n lekker groot bad en die stort is bietjie knap, maar voldoende.

Comfortable, spacious room that is well equipped, lovely view of the pond.

The unit was well equipped and had comfortable patio furniture with a view of the pond. The room is neat and spacious. The bathroom has a nice big bath and the shower is a bit small, but adequate.

Tick al die bokse!

Uiters netjiese en skoon fasiliteite - die gemeenskaplike areas, die tuine en terrein, die kamer. Vriendelike en effektiewe diens. Wat Critchley so lekker maak is dat jy op die grond is met jou deur en stoep wat op die dam en tuin uitkyk. Tyd by die huis is jy nie vasgevang in kamer nie, maar mens kan rondstap/sit langs die dam, onder die bome, op jou eie stoep of op die terras by die restaurant. Wanner die weer koud of nat is en jy wil binne wees, dan het die kamer genoeg ruimte met kaggel en TV. Die groot yskas kan baie wyn koud hou en daar is ’n gerieflike koffie/tee fasiliteit. Die badkamer is heerlik ruim met ’n dubbel wasbak, stort en baie groot bad. Critchley is nie die goedkoopste in Dullstroom nie, maar beslis een van die beste.

Tick all the boxes!

Extremely neat and clean facilities - the common areas, the gardens and grounds, the room. Friendly and efficient service. What makes Critchley so nice is that you are on the ground with your door and porch looking out onto the pond and garden. Time at home you are not stuck in a room, but you can walk around/sit next to the pond, under the trees, on your own porch or on the terrace at the restaurant. When the weather is cold or wet and you want to be inside, the room has enough space with a fireplace and TV. The large fridge can keep a lot of wine cold and there is a convenient coffee/tea facility. The bathroom is wonderfully spacious with a double sink, shower and very large bath. Critchley is not the cheapest in Dullstroom, but certainly one of the best.
