Van die bestes in Graaff-Reinett!

Een van die bestes in Graaff-Reinett. Die eenheid is ruim en goed toegerus. Netjies, stylvol en "well thought through". Die agterste ruimte was ideaal vir ons honde.

Some of the best in Graaff-Reinett!

One of the best in Graaff-Reinett. The unit is spacious and well equipped. Neat, stylish and "well thought through". The back space was ideal for our dogs.

Sentraal en smaakvol.

Die huisie is pragtig en perfek vir oorslaap. Ons twee hondjies was saam en die binnehof is veilig vir hulle gewees. Baie lekker gebly!

The cottage is beautiful and perfect for an overnight stay. Our two dogs were together and the courtyard was safe for them. Very nice stay!

One to come back to.

It's so good to arrive at one's destination at the end of a long day of travelling and find everything one needs - a well-equipped kitchen including a dishwasher, a fireplace with wood, coffee, and milk! We had a very comfortable night in this tastefully decorated house.

Wonderful stay with an awesome host who has an eye for personal touches.

The stay was really good. The cottage is beautiful and modern. It's perfect for a family. The cottage is centrally located and in walking distance of restaurants. We appreciated the personal touches and the snacks for the kids. The homemade ice tea was simply delicious and refreshing. Brad was a great host.

Was by "Stoep Tasting" en het oorgebly vir twee nagte. Kan nie wag om dit weer te doen nie.

Sal beslis weer teruggaan en weer by Light Shade Mountain wil tuisgaan. Sentraal, pragtig en goed toegerus.

Amazing, lekker en warm.

Dit was 'n wonderlike ervaring. Die huisie is so pragtig, die dekor is beeldskoon. Die slaapkamers is so mooi en die beddens is net wow! Ek het lanklaas so lekker geslaap. Die "aesthetic" van die plek is so mooi en dit gee 'n warm gevoel af. Die bure is so vriendelik en respekteer jou privaatheid. Ek sal beslis weer daar bly. Dit was regtig lekker.

Fantastic!

Wow! What a delightful place - I wonder what stories the house can tell! We arrived on a cold afternoon to a warm reception by Brad. And the wood burning stove was a winner. The facilities are great and we had a wonderful stay. A word of thanks to the neighbour at no 48. Sometime during the night, he saw a 'comrade' inspecting my car and called the security company who came to investigate!

Rustig en heerlik gekuier.

Het lekker gebly en die koffie was 'n bederf. Ons gasheer was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die agterplaas was heerlik en kon heerlik uitspan in die hangmat. Die skoonmaker kan dalk net loer na onder die beddens. My dogtertjie se beertjie het agter die bed ingeval en toe ons onder die bed kyk, was die stof erg onder die bed en ook op die muskietnette waar dit op die vloer raak. As die skoonmaker ook net die paslaken kan styftrek, het gevoel of iemand voor ons dalk daarin kon geslaap het, hoewel waarskynlik nie die geval was nie. Kan dalk 'n rasper kry en knyprooster vir braai. En dalk kole tang. Maar heerlik gekuier!

Peaceful and wonderful visit.

Had a nice stay and the coffee was a treat. Our host was very friendly and helpful. The backyard was lovely and could stretch out in the hammock. The cleaner might just peek under the beds. My daughter's teddy bear fell behind the bed and when we looked under the bed, the dust was bad under the bed and also on the mosquito nets where they touch the floor. If the cleaner could just tighten the fitted sheet too, felt like someone before us might have slept in it, although probably not. Might get a grater and pinch grill for grilling. And maybe charcoal tongs. But had a great time!

Hi Elsje

Thank you for your honest review. I have noted your advice and experience and will rectify the dusting under beds so that next time you stay with us, we can look after you and your family better.

Have a great day.

Peaceful, restful and very comfortable.

It was lovely after a long day of travelling to arrive greeted by friendly Brad and just to relax outside under the vine and swing in the hammock. The beds are very comfortable and well equipped to keep the mosquitoes away. Pop.
