Comfortable and interesting stop in Belfast / eMakhazeni.

Lovely overnight on our way to Kruger. Jaco welcomed us, gave us good advice on entering Kruger and surrounding roads. We loved the quirky decorations in the house and garden. It was so interesting, and we wished we had more time to look around.

Modern art where you don't expect it.

Was given a different room than booked, but this was fine. In fact, more than fine (unless you are planning to cook). The room has designer furniture and lots of paintings on the walls, quite impressive. And really remarkable when you consider the street in front of the house is almost impassable and street signs no longer exist in this little town. In addition to the art in the room, the accommodation has several fountains and sculptures in the garden.

Beslis die moiete werd.

Vriendelike diens. Pragtige perseel en die kamers is goed ingerig en het 'n warm gevoel. Eienaar was vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Sal weer daar oorbly in die toekoms.

A delightful home away from home.

Jaco's place is an absolute delight. I love the rustic farm vibes. He was so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was really good as well. Will definitely be returning just to get a good night's sleep again.

Enjoyed our 1 night stay at The Gables.

A good stopover on the way to Kruger from Gauteng. A quiet and comfortable night's stay at The Gables in Belfast. The location makes it a good stopover on the way East to Kruger.

Baie mooi en skoon gastehuis met uitstekende diens.

Die kamers is baie mooi en prakties ingerig en het als wat mens nodig het. Die tuin is fantasties en is baie kunstig ingerig, mens kan 'n hele rukkie daarin ronddwaal! Die eienaar, Jaco, is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en die ontbyt was heerlik. Sal dit aanbeveel!

Privaat

Die gasheer, Jaco, is baie eksentriek. Hy is vreeslik kunstig, en ek is seker elke liewe beeld, skildery/iets in sy huis het 'n merkwaardige storie. Ons waardeer die netheid en privaatheid wat ons geniet as ons daar oorbly. Dis die tweede keer wat ons daar oorbly op pad na die Krugerwildtuin toe, en dit is steeds 'n absolute plesier.

Private

The host, Jaco, is very eccentric. He is very artistic, and I'm sure every dear image, painting/something in his house has a remarkable story. We appreciate the cleanliness and privacy we enjoy when we stay there. It's the second time we've stayed there on our way to the Kruger National Park, and it's still an absolute pleasure.

Dit was te kort om werklik sinvolle kommentaar te lewer. Die erf is baie goed versorg met mooi rose wat in blom was.

The Gables het ons verwagtinge oortref. Wat 'n juweel!

Jaco is 'n ongelooflike gasheer. Ons het vir 5 nagte oorgeslaap en hy het uit sy pad gegaan om ons verblyf gemaklik te maak. Ons het deur 'n moeilike tyd gegaan tydens ons verblyf daar en dit was soos 'n oase om in die middae by The Gables tuis te kom. Die gastehuis is netjies en baie smaakvol ingerig, die huis se interieur is so mooi en skep 'n warm atmosfeer. Wat 'n kreatiewe en goedhartige mens wat hierdie plek besit. Ek beveel The Gables met vrymoedigheid aan.

The Gables exceeded our expectations. What a gem!

Jaco is an amazing host. We stayed for 5 nights and he went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. We went through a difficult time during our stay there and it was like an oasis to come home to The Gables in the afternoons. The guest house is neatly and very tastefully furnished, the interior of the house is so beautiful and creates a warm atmosphere. What a creative and kind hearted person who owns this place. I heartily recommend The Gables.

Immaculate in all ways.

Stylish arty and interesting. Well-prepared for our arrival, even though Belfast had loadhedding that evening, it mattered not. The candle light and open fire made up for it, the ambience was an excellent host in Jaco's absence. We loved the home, I can recommend it.

Pragtige gastehuis met 'n wonderlike gasheer.

Jaco was 'n wonderlike gasheer en het my bederf met 'n heerlike ontbyt uit die boonste rakke. Die gastehuis self is baie mooi en ek het baie lekker in my kamer met aangeslote badkamer vernag. Alles was skoon en netjies en die prys is baie billik.
