Ideally situated reasonably priced accommodation.

The breakfast was good and the rooms were nice. Need more kitchen plates, cups, glasses, and utensils.

Nutmeg Guesthouse 's response

Thank you for the constructive feedback, Aimee. We are in the process of finalising inventories for each room, which will enable us to keep tighter control on items in the rooms that sometimes get moved between rooms without our knowledge. Regular checking should help.

Die wooneenheid was skoon, netjies en goed toegerus. Die pragtige tuine skep 'n ontspanne atmosfeer. Verder is die DStv, met al die kanale, 'n pluspunt. Die eienaar en personeel is deurgans vriendelik en bereid om te help.

Veilig, maklik om te kry, redelike waarde vir geld.

Nie al die kamers lyk soos op die foto wat geadverteer word nie. Die kamer waarin ons vriende gebly het, kort 'n upgrade. Ons moes ook elke oggend vir toiletpapier gaan vra wat bietjie irriterend was. Die toiletpapier was ook bitter swak gehalte, ons het na die tweede dag eerder ons eie gaan koop om te gebruik. Die diens was vriendelik. Wat ons wel verwar het, was dat ons met aankoms vertel is dat ontbyt ekstra 'n R90 pp is, dalk het ons dit misverstaan, maar ons was onder die indruk met bespreking dat dit ingesluit is in die prys van die kamer, maar oor die algemeen was dit nie slegte waarde vir geld nie.

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

Safe, easy to get, reasonable value for money.

Not all the rooms look like the picture advertised. The room our friends stayed in needs an upgrade. We also had to ask for toilet paper every morning which was a bit annoying. The toilet paper was also extremely poor quality, after the second day we instead bought our own to use. The service was friendly. What did confuse us was that on arrival we were told that breakfast was an extra R90 pp, maybe we misunderstood, but we were under the impression on booking that it was included in the price of the room, but about the overall it wasn't bad value for money.

'n Bekoorlike, ouwêreldse atmosfeer, tesame met alle moderne geriewe.

Gratis WiFi, stroomtelevisie en stortkop wat ordentlik werk,. Miskien 'n bottel water in die yskas? Weet nooit of jy die kraanwater kan drink nie.

Netjies, maar basies.

Die ontvangs was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Die kamer was skoon en die badkamer was baie netjies, maar die kombuisware was baie beperk. Geen langlewemelk nie, net Cremora. Gemeenskaplike gasstoof buite die kamers, maar geen vuurhoutjies in die kamer nie. Minder waarde vir geld in vergelyking met ander plekke waar ons elders in die land al gebly het teen 'n soortgelyke prys.

Neat, but basic.

The reception was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bathroom was very neat, but the kitchenware was very limited. No longevity milk, just Cremora. Communal gas stove outside the rooms, but no matches in the room. Less value for money compared to other places we have stayed elsewhere in the country at a similar price.

Gerieflik as oornag-verblyf.

Het voldoen aan ons behoefte van gerieflike oornag-verblyf. Vriendelike gasheer en -vrou. Kon tot en met 21:00 inboek. Heerlike bed en skoon linne. Badkamer sal vir sommige gaste baie knap wees. Moes vroeg vertrek en kon nie ontbyt eet nie, maar die ontbyttafels was mooi netjies gedek.

Die plek was regtig nie skoon nie en die linne, lakens en komberse was baie oud en ek het nie gemaklik gevoel om daaronder te slaap nie.

Die indruk wat op die foto's geskep word is dat dit 'n ou Engelse Herehuis is. Intussen vergelyk dit goed met 'n goedkoop ou losieshuis. Die eetgerei is onpaar en heeltemal onvoldoende om as selfsorg deur te gaan. Ek kon skaars my wegneemete warm maak en het al die eetgerei gewas voordat ek daaruit geëet het. Glad nie aan te beveel vir 'n lekker aand se slaap nie.

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

The place was really not clean and the linen, sheets and blankets were very old and I didn't feel comfortable sleeping under them.

The impression created in the photos is that it is an old English Manor House. Meanwhile, it compares well with a cheap old boarding house. The cutlery is odd and completely inadequate to pass as self-catering. I could barely heat up my takeaway and washed all the utensils before eating from them. Not recommended at all for a good night's sleep.

Good, but a few small things could made it even better.

Lovely, peaceful place. We had enough space. Friendly staff and owner lady. Lovely breakfast! A bit tricky to get out of the allocated parking spaces if other bigger cars are all parked there. Suggestions: Real milk in pyramids (e.g. Parmalat) will be welcome in addition as not everyone loves Cremora. Air freshener in the bathroom wasn't supplied. Staff should also clean the sunken in areas of the shower door frame, but all the rest was nice and clean. Only one coffee mug - more are needed. But overall, we appreciated the quiet surroundings, comfortable beds and good looking furniture.

Lovely clean and comfortable stay.

We travelled down from the Sterkfontein Nature Reserve, which was so disappointing and it was a pleasant relief to have booked in at Nutmeg where everything was as promised on the website and as per our booking.

Vriendelike ontvangs, mooi netjies en privaat.

Ons het 'n heerlike oorslaap geniet. Die ontbyt was ook smaaklik.

Baie lekker and rustig. Peter is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Die blyplek is in die dorpie Howick en baie maklik on the kry. Akkommodasie is baie skoon en die eienaar is baie behulpsaam. Waarde vir geld.

Ons was op soek na relatief aangename, goedgeleë en bekostigbare oornagverblyf nie te ver van Durban af nie en Nutmeg Guesthouse is presies waarna ons op soek was.

Dis nie luuks of indrukwekkend nie, maar dit is waarde vir geld. Ontvangs en verblyf: Baie vriendelik, gerieflik en aangenaam. Ontbyt die volgende oggend: Heerlik en waarde vir geld! Aandete in 'The Black Olive' (so aanbeveel deur die gastehuis): Beslis die moeite werd! Ligging: Maklik om te kry vanaf die N3. Aanbevelings: (1) Die koffiebekers en glase, van verskillende groottes, wat nie een bymekaar pas nie, kort beslis 'n opgradering. (2) Twee van ons handdoeke was in 'n besonder gehawende toestand en moet vervang word. (3) Een senior lid van ons geselskap loop met 'n 'roller'. Alhoewel daar 'n paadjie vir hom was, was die paadjie se hekkie gesluit na aandete en ons kon nie die slot by ontvangs, wat toe al gesluit was, bekom nie.

We were looking for relatively pleasant, conveniently located and affordable overnight accommodation not too far from Durban and Nutmeg Guesthouse is exactly what we were looking for.

It's not fancy or impressive, but it's value for money. Reception and accommodation: Very friendly, comfortable and pleasant. Breakfast the next morning: Delicious and value for money! Dinner in 'The Black Olive' (so recommended by the guest house): Definitely worth it! Location: Easy to get to from the N3. Recommendations: (1) The coffee mugs and glasses, of different sizes, which do not fit together, definitely need an upgrade. (2) Two of our towels were in a particularly battered condition and need to be replaced. (3) One senior member of our company walks with a 'roller'. Although there was a path for him, the path's gate was locked after dinner and we couldn't get the lock at reception, which was already locked by then.

Lekker outydse Engelse huis, vriendelike gasheer en die ontbyt lekker.

Ons het as 3 mense in die 3-5 bed selfsorg-eenheid bespreek. Ontbyt is ekstra, maar jy sal meer betaal vir minder kos in die dorp. Ander gaste ook baie vriendelik. Somertyd sal die swembad baie lekker wees. Selfsorg is ligte maaltye, yskas en wasbak, maar nie hotel se kombuis. Dis net reg vir mense wat besigheid in die omgewing doen. Die warm water is warm en ordentlike stortgeriewe. Nie die tipe waar jy moet rondhardloop in die stort om nat te word nie.

Old-world English house, friendly host and delicious breakfast.

We were 3 people who booked a self-catering unit for 3-5. Breakfast is extra, but you'll pay more for less food in town. Other guests were also very friendly. In summertime the swimming pool will be great. Self-catering for light meals with a fridge and basin, but it's no hotel kitchen. It's perfect for people on business in town. The warm water is really warm and there's proper shower facilities. Not the type of shower you have to run around in to get wet.

Aanvaarbaar vir 'n oorslaap.

Deurknop bly in jou hand agter in kamer 2. Dis reeds met silicon reggemaak. die non-matching breekgoed was nie vir my baie mooi nie. Ons is self in gastebedryf en dit sal vir die kamer meer doen as dit mooi eenvormig is, twee borde, verskillende soorte en grootte. Handdoeke maar baie hard en oud en beddegoed en matras ook. Dit is maar 'n ou plek. Ons het net oorgeslaap vir twee nagte en dit was in orde. Geen klagte oor vriendelike eienaar. Ek het niks daarvan gehou dat die personeel elke keer as ons ry in die kamer in is nie. Ek het die deur van my hangkas "gedokter" dat ek geweet het hulle het dit oopgemaak en daar was geen rede voor nie, so hulle moet met hul personeel praat om nie onnodig in mense se goed te krap nie. Daar was niks om te doen laatmiddag na ons vir die troue vertrek het nie, en hulle het ingegaan en my skoene byvoorbeeld netjies reguit gesit. Waarvoor? Dit maak dat ek volgende keer 'n papier sal wil opsit wat geen diens versoek, want daar was nie nodig om te loer nie. Hulle het byvoorbeeld net voor ons gery het ingekom om te hoor watse drinkgoed ons wou he, en ons het koffie en suiker geneem, want daar was nie tee nie. Die hele tyd was daar geen tee, maar dit het my nie gepla nie omdat ek nie tee met poeiermelk drink nie, maar ek drink ook nie koffie nie. Hulle het die mandjie gebring en ons moes neem, en ook toiletpapier, en toe ons ry, het hulle nogtans ingegaan. Vir wat? Daarvan hou ek niks nie. Dit sal maak dat ek volgende keer 'n loper insit sodat my privaatheid respekteer word. Dankie.

Acceptable overnight accommodation.

Door handle remains in your hand after you have closed the door - room 2. Already fixed with silicon. The non-matching crockery isn't pretty. We are alos in the hospitality industry and it will do a lot to get uniform crockery. Two plates different types and sizes. Old, hard towels. Linen and mattress same story. The place is quiet old. We stayed two nights and it was fine. No complaints about friendly owner. I didn't like the fact that the staff entered our room everytime we left. I booby-trapped the closet door to know if they opened it, no reason for it, they should tell the staff to not snoop around in the guests' stuff. There was nothing to do late afternoon after we lefte for the wedding, so they went into our room and arranged my shoes. Why? I've got a good mind to stick a piece of paper on the door instructing them to stay out, because it wasn't necessary. Just befor we left they asked us what we wanted to drink, we requested coffee and sugar since there weren't any tea. There never was any tea but it didn't bother me because I don't take my tea with powdered milk, but I also don't drink coffee. They brought the basket and we had to help ourselved and then they still entered the room when we left. Why? I didn't appreciate it at all. Next time I will bring my own lock so they can respect my privacy. Thanks.

Baie netjiese gastehuis, vriendelike gasheer en pragtige omgewing.

Die gastehuis is in 'n pragtige groot erf met lieflike bome. Netjiese kamers. Baie vriendelike gasheer. Ons het nie van die ontbyt gebruik gemaak nie maar die restaurant lyk baie netjies en mooi.
