Thank you so much Richard for your beautiful review. It was such a pleasure to host you guys here on the farm. Always friendly and happy to ask - it felt like you made the space your own in the short time that you were here. We are looking forward to having you in the future.

Dit was heerlik stil en gerieflik, maar die bed en beddegoed is oud en afgeleef.

It was wonderfully quiet and comfortable, but the bed and bedding were old and tired.
It was wonderfully quiet and comfortable. The linen is just old and washed out. The bed could definitely do with real feather pillows and good Percale linen. And a new fan that doesn't whine all night. Location good.

Silence and tranquility.
We had a great time in McGregor, and had a great time relaxing in Dove Cottage. Dove Cottage is on the farm Rhebokskraal which is located less than 2 km outside McGregor, so close to the town, but still on a farm. There are wonderful MTB routes that start right at the farm gate and you can enjoy walking around the farm. The silence on the farm was wonderful. The hostess was very friendly and helpful. The house is very rustic and the furniture is not in a well-kept condition. Unfortunately, the place creates a tired impression. Extra attention to the house, the equipment as well as to the environment and farm yard could make a big difference. Important to mention that the ceilings in the bathroom and kitchen are very low, as are the door frames and bedroom light. Someone who is taller than 1.85 must walk stooped. It didn't bother too much, but heads were bumped a few times this weekend!

Farmyard charm and peaceful atmosphere among the olive groves.
The Dove cottage is a beautiful place to stay, located among the olive groves with a beautiful pond and horses. Amazing customer service. Nicely furnished. The kitchen/dining area could have been a bit bigger.

Baie dankie Ferdi, ek is so bly julle het dit geniet. Ons gaan bietjie sukkel om die kombuisie groter te kry, dis deel van die oorspronklike duiwehuis en varkhokkie op die plaas. Ons mag nie aan dit verander nie. Kom kuier gerus weer.
Groete,

The price is a bit high for the maintenance condition of the place.
The immediate environment may also receive more attention. Very dirty, old swimming pool right in front of the cottage.

Cute little house on an olive farm.
Dove Cottage is very cute and gives an old world feel. It is lovely to walk around the farm. There are many farm animals to be seen as well as wildflowers among the olive trees. The hostess is very friendly. Just make sure of the directions. Instead, call the hostess to find out how to get there. The description said there was a fireplace, but it referred to the other cottage on the farm.

Beautiful from the outside, but unit bedding and bathroom unfortunately not up to standard.
The farm setting is beautiful, but the photos look more attractive than reality. Bedding and utensils are unfortunately tired and the hot tap of the bath literally takes an hour to half fill the bath (No shower). problematic if there are 5 people living there. Very steep stairs/ladder to loft, not suitable for family with small children. Friendly hostess, but the practical side spoiled our stay.

Jammer oor die warmwaterkraan, die probleem is intussen opgelos. Dit is ‘n ou historiese Duiwehuis en die steil trap word altyd onder die mense se aandag gebring.

Anneline is the perfect hostess! Unfortunately we only stayed 1 night, but this is the ideal place to rest. I would like to stay at least 2 nights to see more of the farm as well as the surroundings. These are well-appointed and equipped accommodations and ideal for couples traveling with friends or parents with grown-up children - each a separate place to stay, but can visit together.

Dankie vir die terugvoering. Ons doen normaalweg geen 1 nag verhurings en het uitsondering gemaak. Ons het 3 eenhede en neem die vrymoedigheid om gaste wat 2 of meer nagte slaap, eerste te laat kies, daar dat Dove Cottage reeds bespreek was. Kom kuier gerus langer en geniet ons mooi dorp en omgewing.
Groete,
Annalien.

Ek is so jammer dat die gaste nie met ons persoonlik kom praat het nie. Ons het weer na ons advertensie gekyk en hulle kry presies wat daar staan. Ons het al die sterre in die hemelruim, geen ster gradering, skoon beddegoed en handdoeke waar kinders ook welkom is, niks is wit nie. Elke ou huisie vertel sy storie van baie jare, lekker dik ou mure en geen radio of TV, dit is kuiertyd. Om dit hier te geniet moet jy met jouself gelukkig wees. Baie jammer dat ons gaste nie saamstem, maar kommunikeer asb. met die gasvrou tydens die verblyf. Ons deur staan oop vir ons gaste maar ons wil dit nie eerstehands op 'n publieke platform lees nie. Ons vorige gaste het dieselfde akkommodasie heel positief ervaar en so vele voor hulle in die afgelope 24 jaar. Ons deel graag ons mooi plaas en lewe met gaste maar sulke kommentaar laat mens 2 keer dink.
