Warm & cosy.

A warm cosy place in bitterly cold Sutherland. With a fireplace and warm electric blankets, it kept us warm. Charming house, with its thick walls and 'antique' touches. Well equipped for self-catering, close to town (restaurants & planetarium). Checking in and out was a breeze.

Lovely and pleasant.

All the comforts of home in Raka. We had a blast as the quietness was appreciated when it came to the evenings. Lovely as it was away from the busy main road, so very peaceful. Close to all the sightseeing, etc. Good food at the hotel. Friendly staff and people handling our booking, etc.

Ons het heerlik gekuier en sal graag weer gaan.

Ons het die verblyf terdeë geniet. Die hantering van WhatsApp-boodskappe was ongelooflik vinnig - elke keer. Ons komplimenteer graag die persoon wat die binneshuise versiering gedoen het - pragtig! Die huis is baie goed toegerus - alles van goeie kwaliteit en onbesproke skoon.

We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Handling WhatsApp messages was incredibly fast - every time. We like to compliment the person who did the interior decoration - beautiful! The house is very well equipped - everything of good quality and immaculately clean.

Raka is sentraal gelee en pragtig.

Raka verblyf is nie net sentraal gelee nie, maar ook 'n verblyf wat ons verras het met elke moontlike behoefte voorsien. Die netheid en ingeslote toebehore het Raka soos tuis by die huis laat voel, en die kaggel was meer as verwelkomend in die nagkoue.

Raka is centrally located and beautiful.

Raka accommodation is not only centrally located, but also an accommodation that surprised us with every possible need provided. The cleanliness and included appliances made Raka feel right at home, and the fireplace was more than welcoming in the night chill.

Perfect for us.

Perfect place for a getaway. The photos don't do it justice. Comfortable beds and premium bedding. We brought our two dogs by prior arrangement, and they had plenty of space to run around in the huge, fenced-in backyard. We will definitely book Raka again.

Beautiful accommodation.

We were 2 couples that stayed for 2 nights and it had everything we needed. Anneline helped us with everything we needed to know and we had no issues whatsoever. Nice and central in the heart of the town. I will definitely recommend it to all my friends and family. Thank you!

Nice place to stay. Everything you need is there.

We used the bedroom adjacent to the braai room. The bedroom door was always in the way. Can I suggest to replace the door with a sliding door? No other complaints.

Raka is mooi, goed ingerig en reëlings was goed. Dit was op my emmerskoplysie om Sutherland, ook 'n eerste vir ons, in die winter te besoek. Lekker knus voor 'n kaggel met koffie en 'n soetetjie.

Raka maak voorsiening vir beurtkrag, maar moes ons na 'n lekker koue sterrekykervaring en mislukte kaggel, 21:30 'n onangename louwarm stort aandurf. By aankoms asook die volgende oggend was die water wel warm. Volgens ons kennis was die regte knoppies aan, soos Anneline verduidelik het. Toe ek na akkommodasie gekyk het was die voorwaarde dat die plek 'n kaggel moet hê. Raka noem in die advertensie dat hout voorsien word en ekstra kan in die dorp aangekoop word. Die hout was onbruikbaar groot vir die kaggeltjie en braai. Net 1 stukkie vuuraansteker was beskikbaar. Daar is 'n stomp byl en dis nie ons verwagting om hout te moet kap nie. Ons het +- 17:00 'n Sondagmiddag ingeklok en moes daarna bruikbare grootte hout gaan soek. Ons was nie suksesvol nie. LW. Ek het dit wel na ons besoek onder Janine se aandag gebring en sy het onderneem om in die toekoms bruikbare hout beskikbaar te stel. Ongelukkig het Raka 'n demper op ons Sutherland-ervaring geplaas.

Raka is beautiful, well furnished and arrangements were good. It was on my bucket list to visit Sutherland, also a first for us, in the winter. Nice and cozy in front of a fireplace with coffee and a sweet.

Raka provides for load shedding, but after a nice cold stargazing experience and failed fireplace, we had to face an unpleasant lukewarm shower at 21:30. On arrival as well as the next morning, the water was warm. To our knowledge, the right buttons were on, as Anneline explained. When I looked at accommodation, the condition was that the place must have a fireplace. Raka mentions in the ad that wood is provided and extra can be bought in town. The wood was unusably large for the fireplace and braai. Only 1 piece of fire lighter was available. There is a blunt ax and it is not our expectation to have to chop wood. We clocked in at +- 17:00 on a Sunday afternoon and then had to go looking for usable sized wood. We were not successful. LW. I did bring this to Janine's attention after our visit and she undertook to make usable wood available in the future. Unfortunately, Raka put a damper on our Sutherland experience.
