Of all the B&B/self-catering places, Lorraine's Guest House was one of the best, if not the best.

On entering the accommodation, you feel at home. Away from home, the place is clean, tidy, and welcoming.

Gasvry. Behulpsaam. Rustig.

Motorfietse was veilig agter hek toegesluit naby ons slaapplekkie, was maklik om motorfietse te pak en af te pak. Klein stoepie buite. Heerlik.

Motorcycles were safely locked behind gate near our sleeping area, it was easy to pack and unload motorcycles. Small porch outside. Delicious.

Nice quiet visit and nice private braai area.

Value for money bathroom and shower comfortable. Loadshedding problematic because there is no generator. Magnito lamp was provided but no gas stove so during Loadshedding a bit stranded.

We were tired when we arrived, greeted by friendly hostess. The two-bedroomed unit was spacious and clean. Nothing much to do in Jansenville, but great for a sleepover. We are two senior citizens. I would stay there again.

Traveling from Lesotho to Knysna we had a hick-up crossing the border into SA (slow moving bumper to bumper traffic). The host stayed up until late for us to ensure we got a warm welcome. The room was clean. The bedding was clean and drinking water was supplied (don't drink from the taps). She allowed us to check out a bit later than usual due to our late arrival.

Enorme, ruim kamer.

Dit was ’n plesier om by die groot kamer in te stap. Pragtig ontwerp en gemeubileerd. Die ontvangs was baie lekker. Full house - lugversorging, DStv, lieflike bed. Daar is ook anti-muskiet masjientjies. Die veiligheid en stilte was aangenaam. Die kaktusse het mooi geblom tydens ons besoek.
