Eclectic small town gem.

The long road to Sutherland ended at this amazing accommodation spot. Our host was welcoming and so helpful with regards to local knowledge and information. The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable. Attention to details like having the panel heaters and electric blankets switched on before we arrived. Unfortunately, we were en route home and had only booked one night. We will certainly go back.

Perfectly cosy and more than functional!

Delightful little cottage (a teeny bit smaller than I was expecting but for one person or a couple, absolutely not a problem). Well equipped, with thought clearly given to how cold Sutherland can get, so plenty of options to help stay warm. Although my stay was business related, I would stay again.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, even if it was work-related. We hope you can visit us again.

Baie netjies en ons het 'n aangename verblyf gehad.

Ons was so bly vir die elektriese kombers en verhitte kamer en sitkamer. Daar was hout, 'n vuuraansteker en braaigeriewe voorsien, saam met lekker beskuit, koffie en tee.

Malan's Rest and our Peace.

We had a great week at Malan's Rust. Helanne and Marius are wonderful hosts who made sure that we were warm and comfortable even when it was below 0 outside. They also make sure that guests have light and can make a cup of something warm when Eskom strikes! The quiet town and cosy flatlet meant that we could fully relax and enjoy the peace. The location on the edge of town also meant our dogs could run around without fear. We loved every minute of it and will call Helanne first when we head that way again.

Thank you for your amazing review. It was only a pleasure to have you and your dogs. Please pop in when you need to decompress from city live and city noise.

Baie lekker gebly by Malan's Rust.

Die blyplek is baie goed toegerus met alles wat jy benodig en nog meer soos melk in die yskas en beskuit! Helanne en haar man is baie vriendelik en help graag. Kyk uit vir Blommie die kat. Sy is baie liefdevol en soek altyd aandag.

Ons kon regtig nie vir 'n ouliker plekkie gevra het nie!

Dankie Helanne en Marius! Die oorvloed beskuit (ons kry gewoonlik net twee stukkies) was vir my opvallend en 'n aanduiding van julle vrygewigheid, bedagsaamheid en karakter as mens. Dit sal my altyd bybly! Hoop julle plekkie word oorval met goeie gaste! Seënwense.

’n Snoesige, skoon, goed toegruste woonstelletjie.

Ek en eggenote was vir twee aande in die Yellow Daisy woonstel. Die ruimte in die kompakte woonstel is goed benut en toegerus met alles wat nodig is, met ’n bruikbare kombuisarea. Ons het die koffie, melk en beskuit wat ruim voorsien is, waardeer, asook die hout en aanstekers vir die braaiplek wat baie nuttig tydens beurtkrag was. Sutherland was maar koud in die aande, maar die twee muurverwarmers, elektriese komberse op die dubbelbed en meer as genoeg warm komberse het baie gehelp. Net enkele aspekte vir oorweging: Die woonstelletjie is keurig versier, maar dalk te veel losstaande versierings en kussings. ’n Reisiger het plek en oppervlaktes nodig vir tasse, skootrekenaar, ens. ’n Hoër stoel om die kombuisblad te kan benut sou nuttig wees, aangesien daar nie ’n ander tafel is nie.

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

A cozy, clean, well-equipped little apartment.

My spouse and I were in the Yellow Daisy apartment for two nights. The space in the compact apartment is well used and equipped with everything needed, with a usable kitchen area. We appreciated the coffee, milk and biscuits that were generously provided, as well as the wood and lighters for the barbecue which were very useful during load shedding. Sutherland was cold in the evenings, but the two wall heaters, electric blankets on the double bed and more than enough warm blankets helped a lot. Just a few aspects for consideration: The little apartment is nicely decorated, but perhaps too many loose decorations and cushions. A traveler needs space and surfaces for bags, laptop, etc. A higher chair to be able to use the kitchen top would be useful, as there is no other table.

Gemiddeld.

Te klein en beknop. Daar moet 'n deur vir die badkamer wees, 'n ander vloerbedekking vir die kamer sal baie help. Die basis van die bed is nie op standaard nie en het my been beseer.

'n Paar klein veranderinge is nodig.

Ons het ons kuier geniet en dink met 'n paar veranderinge, soos 'n klein tafeltjie in plaas van 'n rusbank kan dit 'n uitstekende selfsorgeenheid wees.
