Baie dankie dat u dit onder ons aandag gebring het dat u nie ingelig was oor wat als in die prys ingesluit was nie.
Op die kwotasie en bespreking, was daar 2 boodskappe wat bevestig het dat daar geen etes by die kamer prys ingesluit was nie.
Alle etes is dus opsioneel ekstra.
U kan enige tyd gaan kyk op die bevestiging.

Goeie dag
Baie dankie vir u terugvoering.
Ek glo daar was 'n goeie verduideliking oor die mol in die swembad.
Ons is geleë teen die rivier bedding waar molle volop is.
Met tyd gebeur dit dat van hul in die swembad beland, maar ons maak elke dag die swembad skoon indien daar enige iets ingeval het.
Dit is van die eerste wat ek hoor dat van die personeel nie gasvry was nie, u kon dit onder ons aandag gebring het dat ons die probleem dadelik aangespreek het.
Almal is gaande oor ons personeel en diens en kan nie uitgepraat raak oor hul nie.
Jammer u het nie dieselfde ervaring gehad nie.
Ons hoop om u in die toekoms weer te sien.

Beautiful and luxurious.
The place to stay is beautiful and the view over vineyards and mountains even more so. The rooms are massive and luxurious and the kitchen has everything you could need. We did not realize that the place to stay was more than 10 km outside Vredendal town. This would not have been a problem because we intended to eat at the guest house that evening, but seeing as it was two days before Christmas, most of the staff had already left and the kitchen was not open. It wasn't a big problem, but we would have appreciated it if the drivers had warned us in advance so that we could plan better and not have to drive back to town to look for food.

Deliciously relaxing.
Was welcomed with warmth and conversation! Made us and the tour members feel welcome quickly and workers got everyone's bags etc. taken to rooms and see to it that every guest is comfortable. We only stayed one night but would have liked to stay longer to enjoy the breathtaking view and warmth of the surroundings. Would definitely recommend the accommodation but for more than one night. Thank you Melkboomsdrift, definitely see you again.

The guest house is beautifully restored and full of personality.
Our room (perhaps I booked honorably) was not soundproof at all. I could literally follow the speeches of the people next to us (fortunately family). The hot water in the shower is so hot that one cannot get into the shower. I understand it's a gas heating system - but we also live with gas at home and therefore know how it works. The breakfast was unfortunately also not value for money and the stairs to the dining hall very steep and dangerous. But the place is beautiful, neat and clean.

Lovely stay, but caught off guard.
The guest house is very central and offers all the necessary facilities. Because I travel a lot and use guesthouses, I was quite taken aback by the fact that there was no complimentary shower gel and shampoo available (as with all the other guesthouses I stay at). There was hand soap at the sink. I'm sure it was just a mistake that crept in somewhere in the preparation, but considering what the cost was for the night, you'd certainly have expected better. If it is the standard that they don't provide shower gel and shampoo, maybe it should be better communicated in advance. If they did, then I clearly missed it, with attendant inconvenience. I can still recommend the guest house, but for now.

Goeie dag Hannelie en Paul
Dis jammer om te verneem dat u die plek verwaarloos ervaar, gegewe die feit dat die Wes-Kaap gebuk gaan onder 'n groot droogte. Die seisoensverandering na herfs moet ook in ag geneem word.
Die eiendom is in 2020, 200 jaar oud. Die gebou is as 'n Nasionale Gedenkwaardigheid verklaar en dus word daar van die raad vereis om aan sekere spesifikasies te voldoen.
Ons word reeds die afgelope 8 jaar as 4 ster gegradeer en lewer gehalte diens aan ons gaste. Dit is jammer as u dit anders ervaar het.
Ons wil u en u gade hiermee nooi om 'n komplimentêre ontbyt te kom geniet wanneer dit u pas.
Groete

Not what we expected.
Melkboomsdrift is supposed to be a 4 star place. It definitely isn't. When I wanted to take a bath, dirt came out of the faucet. There is a small window in the room that does not have a curtain, so an afternoon nap was impossible and the sun was already bothering me early in the morning. At least the bed was very comfortable and clean.

It was nice after a day in the sun on the golf course.
My wife and I were impressed with the accommodation. Everything was clean and tidy and in their place. I understand there is a water shortage (Here in Wellington too) and suggest that they look at the "shower" taps. It was great to get up on Saturday morning and see a mist hanging over the vineyards and sit outside drinking coffee. Home-baked rusks (not packet ones) would have been nice. The two that were there, I simply ate on Friday afternoon.

Had a great time, very good food, friendly, helpful staff.
Washed in winter, so all the vines are dull. Think it should be beautiful in the summer. Lovely place to visit. The stairs to the upper floor where one eats, however, are very steep and one feels unsafe to move up and down there. Not suitable for older people! It is suggested that the owner does something about this, as someone has already fallen down there and been seriously injured. Apart from this, great stay!

Baie dankie vir die terugvoering. Ja, dit is nog ekstra droog ook die Winter. Die wingerd begin egter nou bot, binnekort is dit mooi groen! Saam met die Historiese Monument, kom die ou steil trappe na die solder. Ons gee wel mense ontbyt en aandete op die stoepe, onder in portaal asook in die kamers vir die wat wil warm aantrek en gemakliker wees. Hoop julle kom kuier weer as als mooi groen is.

The staff is very friendly. I would not rate Melkbos as 4 star. The dining facilities are not up to standard. The dining room is in an outside area, it was freezing cold and we had to have dinner and breakfast here. The area also did not give the impression of being very clean. Furthermore, the food was very tasty, but cold every night. No proper coffee and it's served out of tin cups - I don't expect tin cups for a 4 star unit.
