Sufficient if you don't need WiFi.
There were no problems with the sleep and amenities. We specifically booked the place due to the fact that there is WiFi and we had to finish some urgent work. Manager said we can contact her via W/app if we need any help. Contacted her at 18:23 for WiFi login information, no response until the next morning at 08:52 after we had already been on the road for another 2.5 hours. Had to hastily make other plans with extra expenses to finish our urgent work which was unacceptable to us. Feel that when you are a manager of such a place, you have to be available to your guests all the time.

Uncomfortable but clean and tidy.
There is confusion regarding "self catering." In the photos there is a microwave and fridge which makes one think you can heat something and eat and use the fridge for food etc. However, there is no cutlery. So refrigerator and microwave creates a wrong idea. Then if one is early like 15h00, do you then have to sit in the room on the double bed until you go to sleep? We had to ask if we could sit outside and enjoy a glass of wine. There wasn't a wine glass either.

Comfortable.
Safe and comfortable place to stay. Was just a bit inconvenient because the power was off when we got there, but that was out of the owner's control. The lights are indeed connected to solar power and I would recommend that power plugs are also connected to solar power so that guests can at least boil a kettle when they arrive. The service was good and the owner is friendly and helpful.

Was hot after the drive, but could cool down quickly in the swimming pool, the rooms are always a gem, host always 100% on the client's side, very safe and beautiful.
No cutlery, but we asked and they provided.

Beautiful room, very clean and neat.
Nice stay! The pillows were just incredibly hard and tight. But for someone else it would work again. Both times that we stayed there it was incredibly noisy in the area, not owner's fault at all. It's dogs barking all night and so on. So take it into account that it is in a residential area.

Neat, comfortable, value for money.
Friendly welcome, neat clean rooms. All negative point, we book according to the amenities available. The braai place was used by the owner's children and we could not use it. Guests must be informed when they inquire if facilities are not available.

Didn't have a good arrival.
Gate on my vehicle starts to close. Pin not pushed into the ground, while I looked for the owner to move forward because there was a reasonable height difference, and limited space. Gate moved and it rubbed against my vehicle. Not happy. No. 3's beds done. Both my wife and I had back pain.

Short stopover on our way home from Cape Town.
The Big Tree Guest House 's response
Hi Cayla, thank you for staying at The Big Tree Guest House. When you do an online booking, you can look at all the rooms for more options, unfortunately you booked the only room that I have with a bath, the other 2 rooms have showers. Sorry about that. Next time try booking Room Nr 2 at The Big Tree Guest House. Kind regards, Madeleine.

Disappointing.
The Big Tree Guest House 's response
Hi Brenda,
I'm really sorry for you disappointment. There are 3 rooms, 2 with showers and 1 with a bath. It is listed on the site like that. You decided to book Room 1 with the bath. There is a lot of guests that prefer the bath (for small children of instance), that is why we think at least we have the option for the guest to choose.
The photo's of the room on the site is exactly the same as inside the room. Why did you booked the room if you did not like the furniture or the bath? It was your choice to book or not.

Not at all happy with the reception.
On arrival we were greeted by the owner's daughter who is very impersonal. The protocol was also not properly followed as far as the regulations were concerned. I then called the owner from the room and asked if we wanted to talk to her personally about the amenities and plates that are not in the rooms, to which she came and reacted half furiously and also because there is no braai that we can use to barbecue, she said it had to be arranged in advance and they could not meet that need. She was very rude and disrespectful towards us as if our color was not good enough, whereupon we canceled the stay and went looking for another place. We only got a third of our money back. I do not recommend that guest house in any way, maybe if your color is right It was quite a humiliation for us. Her actions are totally unacceptable.

I would definitely recommend Big Tree Guest House as a place to stay for one night.
I would suggest they look at some small things. Soap in the bathrooms, and a bathroom door on the twin bedroom. My two sons shared the room so it was acceptable but would have given more privacy. The customer service was good and everything was tidy in the rooms.

Owners' dog whined all night in front of our room window, we couldn't sleep.
Place was clean and tidy and bed comfortable. Because the dog whined all night, we drove on very tired.

Hi Hannes,
Ek is vreeslik jammer oor die honde wat blaf, maar ek wil net 'n regstelling maak.
Dit is definitief nie my hond wat blaf nie, dit is honde in die buurt wat rond loop in die nag, waaroor ek geen beheer het nie.
