Very relaxing and peaceful.
Excellent view, and very neat unit. I'm not sure what the other units at Rondegat look like, but this one was brand new and had everything we needed. We had a very nice stay. An issue with the brand new microwave not working properly was followed up and resolved very quickly.

Lovely, tidy, well equipped, beautiful views.
Best getaway we've had in a long time. The owners are very friendly and the accommodation was clean, more than enough utensils in the kitchen and lovely beds to sleep on. The setting just about took your breath away, and perfect timing with all the flowers out too. Our 2 boys rode MTB, canoeing and were just never bored. Already forwarded to our friends and planning our next visit.

Dankie vir jou review.
Dis baie belangrik dat voornemende gaste die oordinligting op LekkeSlaap deurlees en hulle vergewis van wat om saam te bring, dat dit 'n selfsorg akkommodasie is, of dit 'n grondpad is, hoe ver dit van Clanwilliam is ens. om sodoende voorbereid te kom en die ondervinding ten volle te geniet. Groete, AnneMarie.

Peaceful farm stay at the Clanwilliam dam.
Not a bad stay for the price. The Algeria road to the accommodation is very bad, the road from Clanwilliam is much better. The accommodation itself is limited but has the necessary. For a place where it touches 40°C plus, one would expect aircons. The chalets are about 400m from the water where you can launch your boat. The road down to the dam could be improved a bit. There are many horses on the farm and therefore also very many flies, so take fly candles etc. Wood and ice can be bought on the farm, which is very convenient. If you want to get out of the busy city, it is very nice.

Very primitive. It definitely needs an upgrade.
Beautiful surroundings. It was very peaceful. The accommodation is very outdated - the bedding definitely needs to be replaced. There are no extras like hand soap, toilet paper, and they even require you not to use double-ply toilet paper. There wasn't even coffee, sugar and milk for the first night. All guest houses definitely provide this to make you feel extra at home. They also did not provide matches for the gas bottle.

Everything you need for a nice visit is there. The hostess is helpful and was in contact with us before the visit. After the many rains, the road was not good, but an ordinary car can drive it. The horses eating in front of the cottage was a big bonus for our little girl and there are easy walking trails down to the pond. Would love to visit again in the summer.

It is 100% self-catering. Not luxurious at all.
I would not recommend it for a "last minute" choice. The surroundings are beautiful, but the value for money falls short. The biggest advantage was that we could take our dogs with us. And there is a cash deposit payable of R400 if something breaks. It would have been great if there was a bag of coffee. The hostess did provide us with towels and a pack of matches for the primus. Also take your own life jackets with you if you are going to use the canoes.

Hello Celeste, dankie vir jou kommentaar. Let asb. op dat ons akkommodasie as selfsorg geadverteer word. Dit word ook nêrens as 'luuks' geadverteer nie. Ons bied baie gerieflike, goed ingerigte plaaskothuise aan wat familievriendelik is en toegang bied tot die Clanwilliam-dam vir 'n verskeidenheid wateraktiwiteite soos ski en visvang. As jy egter 'n luukse plekkie vir jou en jou honde soek, is ons nie geskik nie.

What a disappointment!
We landed and had to pay a deposit of R400 in cash. They did not ask for our bank details for reimbursement, nor did we receive them back. Four horrible, orange, rock hard, old towels, and they claim we stole one. Who wants this present?! Our friends from Belgium were just as disappointed! And what a way to introduce our country to them. All 5 other places were off the books. All that was beautiful was the view. The road to get there is horrible. No coffee, sugar, tea or biscuits like at all the other places. I would not recommend anyone to go there, and the owners attitude towards us was so negative.

Hallo Patrys
Dankie vir jou terugvoering. Ons is jammer dat jy nie op die besprekings webblad gelees het dat 'n sleutel deposito betaalbaar is en dat jy jou bankbesonderhede moet stuur vir die terugbetaling nie. Jou deposito is onmiddellik terugbetaal nadat jy jou bankbesonderhede gestuur het.
Ongelukkig was al die handdoeke nie daar nadat julle vertrek het nie en moes 'n gedeelte van die deposito vir die vervanging aangewend word.
Ek is vooraf gedreig met 'n swak resensie, omdat ons die handdoek aangemeld het.

Quiet, but not what we expected.
1. The website photos are very misleading, because like the one attached, they are not photos of the specific guest house, but the campsite opposite the dam. 2. Our little house was very dirty, especially under the beds and the porch and patio doors. 3. The shower's water does not drain easily and pushes up into the room next door.

We were 6 people in House no. 2 (3-bedroom for 8 people). Everything we needed, very nice and clean, with a lovely barbecue area outside. Very friendly reception. Was lovely to be able to walk down to the dam, and paddle the canoes as a bonus. Another bonus is the wood and ice that you could pre-order and then deliver to your home. We will definitely stay at Rondegat again. Thank you very much!

Beautiful and peaceful surroundings and view of the Clanwilliam dam. On the way to Rondegat through Clanwilliam a squatter camp is passed.
The area where Rondegat is located is very beautiful and peaceful with a lovely view of the dam, but the self-catering unit needs a bit of attention, as well as the linen needs a bit of an upgrade. Unit is also not supplied with towels. I would suggest that the owner also look into alternative power supply. We were without power for over 12 hours and the owner didn't even make contact to find out if we needed anything or indicate what was the reason for the outage. Only the next day we were helped with a small gas bottle to at least be able to drink a coffee. On our first night, the sink in the kitchen packed up and wouldn't drain.

Hallo H
Dankie vir jou terugvoering.
Ons vra verskoning vir die ongerief met ESKOM se 10 ure krag onderbreking. Dit is egter buite ons beheer en is nie iets wat tot nou, gereeld gebeur het nie en dus nie honderde duisdende rande se alternatiewe krag voorsiening geregverdig het nie.
Rondegat voorsien nie handdoeke nie, dit is iets wat die hoeveelheid water en elektrisiteit, 2 uiters skaars hulpbronne in ons land, nie regverdig nie en ook nie ekologies vriendelik is vir net 1 of 2 aande se gebruik nie. Ons hoop dat ons gaste ook meer ekologies vriendelike gebruike sal ondersteun, dit word ook op die webwerf aangedui dat handoeke nie voorsien word nie.
Dankie dat julle die verstopte wasbak aangemeld het sodat ons dit dadelik kon oopmaak voor dit julle kon verontrief.

Accommodation on the dam.
The surroundings are beautiful and accommodation is right by the dam. It is 17 kilometers from Clamwilliam on a dirt road. However, the unit was really small with only one bathroom. We booked for six and although there were enough beds/mattresses we had to make a bed for the children in the living area. Towels are not provided either. It's not really what we were looking for, but I believe if you are 4 people with a boat or love for water sports it will more than meet your requirements.

Really love Clanwilliam and it's a great destination for a family. Unfortunately there was an incident with I think the owner which ended the whole weekend on a horrible note. He couldn't introduce himself or say hello, but so nice and rude rushed us out at the dam bank at 11:00 after no one told us that we had to be away from the whole farm by 11:00. We checked out of our accommodation at 9:00 as per the rules. If you don't want people on your site at 11:00 then you have to make them tweet before you chase them away like dogs after they apologize for it.

One positive aspect is the location by the dam, and the sunset over the mountains. Negative aspect is at the horse stable/camp with a lot of flies, the ceiling fans, except the one in the master bedroom did not make any impression and could definitely be upgraded. The small pool for 5 sleeping units, there were 12 people, was really disappointing.

Ons verblyf was so salig na 'n week se gejaag - dit was baie ontspannend en rustig.

Our stay was so blissful after a week of hustle and bustle - it was very relaxing and peaceful.
Rondegat Cottages, very well located. My daughter had a great time frolicking in the "splash pool" in front of her guard dogs, the farm dogs - thank you Charlie and Willice - they looked after her very well. The owners were very friendly and helpful. My husband and I were able to kayak quietly and enjoy nature. My only complaint is that the weekend was over so quickly. I will definitely go again ─ this time for much longer.

Great relaxing in a pleasant environment with friendly people and animals!
All the basic necessities were available and in usable condition. Stayed 4 nights and never felt it had to end now. Not even with just the moon as a source of power. Good base for exploring the area, given you have the necessary vehicle. Can also recommend it to the guys who just want to sit and stare!

Quiet place with very nice views of the dam with the most beautiful sunset.
We made a mistake with our booking. Wanted to go to another place, but found out we booked at Rondegat. At first we were unhappy, but then we enjoyed Rondegat. We make use of many cottages, lodges and guest houses. Don't know why, but there is no tea, coffee, milk or towels at this place. First place in our wanderings that we didn't get these basics and we also had to pay R200 for breakages. Perhaps the owners may have already suffered damage by providing it, but drinking a brandy for morning coffee was not fun. However, is a very nice place.

Very quiet place, secluded and private with a nice view over pond and hills.
Stayed in chalet no 1. Neat, clean with sufficient equipment in kitchen and braai area. The view over the dam is incredibly beautiful. Although you are not at the dam, the splash pool makes up for it and you can cool off in your own private pool. You can walk down to the dam where rowing boats are made available for you to use. Wasn't impressed with the refund process for the break and key deposit as it is only refunded to your bank account a few days after your departure and one wonders what will happen if there is a dispute. You are not provided with a list of items that are in the chalet, so you cannot check items on arrival and departure to avoid possible disputes. Something the owners might look into. Also suggest that the owner or someone accompanies you to the chalet to show you where everything is. It makes it just that little bit more special, otherwise it just feels like a business transaction. It is also possible to look at the arrival time. 15:00 is a little late and you feel that more than half of the day has already passed, for which you bear a full day's cost. Apart from the little things, it was very pleasant and I will visit the place again.

I was greatly disappointed with the location, which is different from the pictures used to advertise the venue and did not warn travellers about the poorly maintained gravel road.
Rondegat Cottages 's response
Dear Guest kindly note that our website clearly states it is a gravel road. Regretfully the conditions of gravel roads varies according to the weather and when and how often it is graded and maintained.
It is also very upsetting for us when guests arrive at reception, as you did, with a very rude attitude, we as an establishment has no control over the roads.

Wouldn't recommend staying there if you are a large group of people. We were there for the Red Bullet Sport Week and the owners were not very accommodating when our friends from Lebanon (campsite next door) to braai with us. The 13 km dirt road was also not very pleasant to drive every day. There is also no water in the dam, so boating is out.
