Clean, comfortable and good fishing.

Very comfortable. Great fishing options in both the river and the larger lake.

Stonecutters Nature Lodge 's response

Was a privilege to have such a competent angler fishing our waters who was able to confirm that we offer a great fishing experience.
Best wishes, Simon!

'n Rustige naweek in 'n mooi omgewing.

Die personeel was vriendelik en die eenheid netjies, skoon en goed toegerus. My aandete, afgelewer in 'n mandjie, was 'n ware bederf!

Die Lodge is waarde vir geld, maar nie privaat genoeg vir 'n paartjie nie.

Die akkomodasie is te na op mekaar. Die eenheid deel 'n muur met die bure en die bure se stoep is net langs ons eenheid gewees. Die ander eenhede is ook te naby. Ek gee wel vier sterre vir die plek weens ander faktore. Hierdie lodge sal ek glad nie aanbeveel vir paartjies nie.

The Lodge is value for money but not private enough for a couple.

The accommodation is too close to each other. The unit shares a wall with the neighbors and the neighbors' porch was right next to our unit. The other units are also too close. I do give the place four stars because of other factors. I would not recommend this lodge at all for couples.

Die verwagting versus koste was baie terleurstellend!

Die prys was baie hoog - ek het 'n ruim huis verwag. Die huisie was klein met baie ou verwaarloosde dekor, gordyne ens. Matte was oud en vuil. Verwag nie meer matte in huise met hoe mense omset nie! Die huis was baie na aan die hoofpad en treinspoor en baie lawaaierig. Die ontvangs/ onthaalkamer bied geen ekstra soos 'n speletjie of iets nie. Stonecutters is vir die prys wat hulle vra totaal overrated - as die prys met 2 derdes gesny word sal dit met verwagting tred hou! Ons voel ons het hopeloos te veel betaal!

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

The expectation versus cost was very disappointing!

The price was very high - I expected a spacious house. The cottage was small with very old neglected decor, curtains etc. Carpets were old and dirty. Don't expect more carpets in homes with how people convert! The house was very close to the main road and train track and very noisy. The reception/reception room does not offer any extras like a game or anything. Stonecutters are totally overrated for the price they charge - if the price is cut by 2 thirds it will keep up with expectations! We feel we paid hopelessly too much!

Pleasant and very hospitable. Great food. Well kept grounds.

Lodge was quiet and thus we got upgraded to a more luxurious suite at no additional charge. Delicious food. Grounds around the dams and river is extremely well kept which makes for easier fly fishing. I will definitely go back.

Baie lekker naweek wegbreek as jy rustigheid soek.

Vandat ons daar aangekom het, is ons soos konings behandel deur Lesley en Margie. Niks was te veel moeite nie. Kos was baie lekker, kamers gerieflik en baie skoon. Die personeel is baie vriendelik. Sal dit definitief aanbeveel vir 'n rustig wegbreek. Alles was perfek. Weereens dankie, Lesley en Margie, vir die lekker naweek.

Rustige, landelike wegbreek.

Ruim, netjiese verblyf in 'n baie rustige omgewing. Die kothuis vir 4 is goed toegerus en bied alles wat jy nodig het. Braai en kaggelhout is volop en die bestuurder was byderhand vir enige krisis en het ons werklik tuis laat voel. Die damme is egter teleurstellend sonder enige vis. Die staproete langs die rivier is lekker oop en bied 'n rustige wandeling in 'n veilige omgewing.

Peaceful, rural getaway.

Spacious, tidy accommodation in a very peaceful environment. The cottage for 4 is well equipped and offers everything you need. Braai and firewood are plentiful and the manager was on hand for any crisis and made us feel truly at home. However, the ponds are disappointing without any fish. The walking route along the river is nice and open and offers a peaceful walk in a safe environment.

Aangenaam, maar nie waarde vir geld nie.

Teen meer as R1000 per nag wil mens graag iets meer hê as iets wat lyk na 'n dubbel-motorhuise wat omskep is in verblyf: Twee enkelbeddens teen mekaar is nie wittebrood-koninggrootte-bed nie, en die plekkie het ook nie 'n bad in nie. Die personeel het een oggend vergeet om vars handdoeke te bring. Die GPS-koördinate is totaal verkeerd en bring mens êrens uit op 'n baie swak plantasie grondpad. In totaal slaag hulle nie.

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

Pleasant but not value for money.

At more than R1000 a night, you'd like something more than what looks like a double garage converted into accommodation: Two single beds pushed together is not a honeymoon king-size bed, and the place doesn't have a bath either not in The staff forgot to bring fresh towels one morning. The GPS coordinates are totally wrong and take you somewhere on a very poor plantation dirt road. In total they fail.

Stonecutters Nature Lodge 's response

This guest is referring to our Cobbles studios, purpose-built and designed by an award-winning architect! The studios are modern and functional and designed to blend into the landscape. Certainly they are a departure from stone and broekie-lace and this was always the intention. From the wooden decks and shutters fronting each studio to the quality furnishings and interiors, the studios are certainly 4-star.
It is standard hotel practice to convert 2 twin beds into a king bed with the use of a padded flange or topping. We have often been complimented on just how comfortable our beds are and have even been asked for the make! With regards to the towels, again it is standard practice to have a disclaimer in the rooms requesting guests to consider water as a precious resource and to place their towels in the shower cubicle if they are to be replaced.
Our website specifically requests guests not to use the GPS co-ordinates (which are not incorrect) as the routes that could be taken are set by the user (e.g. fastest route, shortest route and the GPS can then direct guests onto a route with bad roads. While we appreciate comments from guests we fear that the above comments are misleading.

Stonecutters is 'n baie goed-toegeruste lodge wat baie aktiwiteite vir almal bied. Die omgewing en natuur is wonderlik en 'n pluspunt. Die ontbyt was baie spesiaal en die kos was baie goed.
