Ontbyt uit die boonste rakke en aandete op versoek was uitstekend en die porsies was meer as genoegsaam, alles deur Phillip voorberei. Ons sal beslis weer by Vinelands oorbly.

Philip is 'n gasheer duisend wat omgee vir sy gaste. Dit is ons tweede besoek in hierdie jaar by Vinelands on Alpha en ek sal enige tyd weer daar gaan bly. Phillip se ontbyt, wat hy self voorberei getuig van passie en omgee. Elke oggend is daar 'n ander verrassing saam ontbyt van muffins tot wafels. Sjoe, dit was lekker om weer daar te kon kuier. Baie dankie Philip.

Ek het al voorheen hier by The Vinelands on Alpha gebly vir besigheid gebly. Phillip is 'n fantastiese persoon en laat 'n mens absoluut tuis voel. Sal vir seker weer daar bly wanneer ek in die Brackenfell area is.

Gerieflik en goed geleë vir ons doeleindes.

Die hele binnekant van die plek is donkerbruin geverf. Maak dit baie donker. Moet heeldag ligte aanhou. Handdoeke en beddegoed mooi skoon en goeie gehalte en badkamer netjies oorgedoen. Die witgeverfde meubels is egter vol vingermerke en badkamerdeur is te klein vir die deuropening. Toe ons net na 14:00 inkom, is daar vir ons gesê dis te laat om aandete te bespreek. Dit was jammer omdat dit die rede is waarom ons The Vinelands gekies het. Jy mag ook nie voor 14:00 inklok nie.

Convenient and well located for our purposes.

The entire interior of the place is painted dark brown. Make it very dark. Must keep lights on all day. Towels and bed linen nice clean and good quality and bathroom neatly redone. However, the white painted furniture is full of fingerprints and the bathroom door is too small for the doorway. When we got in just after 2pm, we were told it was too late to book dinner. It was a shame because this is the reason we chose The Vinelands. You may also not check in before 2:00 p.m.

Plek is reggemaak vir 2010 en niks ekstra is sederdien gedoen.

Ons moes 'n badkamer deel, bed glad nie gemaklik nie, kamer se vensterbanke vol stof, kaste se rakke baie grof afgewerk, klere is gehak, ons lae klas gastehuise in Gauteng bied meer vir baie minder.

Skoon, maar "shabby".

Dit is so 'n mooi huis, maar ongelukkig word dit nie behoorlik in stand gehou nie - veral nie in terme van die vereistes van 'n gastehuis nie. Die huis en gastekamers ruik na rook. Die oggend met ontbyt was ek regtig nie lus vir die kos nie, want die reuk van sigaretrook het swaar in die ontbytvertrek gehang. Sal die plek vir seker nie weer gebruik nie en vir niémand aanbeveel nie.

Clean, but shabby.

It is such a beautiful house, but unfortunately it is not properly maintained - especially in terms of the requirements of a guesthouse. The house and guest rooms smell like smoke. The morning with breakfast I was really not fond of the food because the smell of cigarette smoke hung heavily in the breakfast room. Will certainly not use the place again and will not recommend it to anyone.

Ons het heerlike verblyf by The Vinelands gehad. Ons kamer het als gehad wat ons nodig gehad het, tot 'n verwarmer en 'n haardroër. Die ontbyt was absoluut ongelooflik! Ons was verskriklik beïndruk. Die gebou kort 'n bietjie instandhouding, maar ons kan die gastehuis definitief aanbeveel.

Veilige buurt.

Ons het veilig gevoel en die plekkie was netjies. Die foto is net misleidend, want ons was onder die indruk dis hoe die plek lyk waar ons gaan bly. Juis daarom het ons The Vinelands on Alpha gekies. Ons kon 'n plek bespreek het vir R50 goedkoper per nag, wat IDENTIES lyk soos die plek waarin ons gebly het, en sou ons vooraf dit geweet het, sou ons die ander plek gekies het en R200 gespaar het.

Safe neighborhood.

We felt safe and the place was tidy. The photo is just misleading, because we were under the impression that this is what the place where we are going to stay looks like. That's exactly why we chose The Vinelands on Alpha. We could have booked a place for R50 cheaper per night, which looks IDENTICAL to the place we stayed in, and had we known this in advance, we would have chosen the other place and saved R200.

Was beslis nie gelukkig omdat ons in die "woonstel" moes gaan bly nie - dit was op 'n ander perseel.

Was baie dankbaar dat die eienaar ons ipad gehou het wat kids in woonstel vergeet het. Was nie beïndruk dat ons in die woonstel moes gaan bly het nie. Sou veel eerder op die perseel wou gebly het van gastehuis. Ongelukkig daai gedeelte heeltemal misgekyk met bespreking op webtuiste. Woonstel was wel skoon en netjies, maar hou glad nie van die area nie.

Definitely weren't happy to stay in the "apartment" - which was on another premises.

We were very grateful that the owner kept the iPad our kids forgot in the flat. We weren't so impressed with the flat we had to stay in though. Would much rather have stayed in the guesthouse. Unfortunately that part was overlooked when we booked. The apartment was clean and neat, but really didn't like the area.

Ruik na rook

My persoonlike rede vir Nee is die volgende: Alhoewel alles baie netjies was, het die reuk van sigaret-rook skerp in die lug gehang asook aan die handdoeke en beddegoed. Vir iemand wat nie rook nie, en asma het, was dit 'n uitdaging. Na 3 dae het my klere begin ruik na sigaret-rook. Ek het toe gevra om verskuif te word na 'n kamer buitekant die huis. Dit was effens beter maar die beddegoed en handdoeke het nog steeds nie vars geruik nie. Kan ek asseblief anoniem bly. Baie dankie. Ek moes noodgedwonge in n gastehuis bly as gevolg van opknap-werk aan my woonstel.

Smells like smoke

My personal reason for No is the following: Although everything was very tidy, the smell of cigarette smoke hung strongly in the air as well as on the towels and bedding. For someone who doesn't smoke, and has asthma, it was a challenge. After 3 days my clothes started to smell like cigarette smoke. I then asked to be moved to a room outside the house. It was slightly better but the bedding and towels still didn't smell fresh. Can I remain anonymous please? Thank you very much. I was forced to stay in a guest house due to renovation work on my apartment.

Verblyf was aangenaam, die kos was baie lekker, en die diens was vriendelik!

Mense kan met geruste harte by die "The Vinelands on Alpha" gaan uitspan. Ek dink in die somer sal dit heerlik wees met die swembad en braai-area!

We really enjoyed our stay at Vinelands on Alphaon

Vineland on the Alpha is a home away from home with a friendly owner and a great accommodation. We had a great time engaging with our friendly host, Phillip, who treated us like we were his own friends staying as guests.

Warm verwelkoming deur eienaar en verblyf is puik! HEERLIKE groot ontbyt!

Ons was warm verwelkom en uitleg van gastehuis is goed. Als wat nodig is, was in die kamers en die ontbyt was verseker 'n hoogtepunt en was self deur die eienaar voorberei.

Vriendelike diens in 'n netjiese omgewing. Topgehalte ontbyt en aandete!

The Vineyards on Alpha is 'n puik gastehuis. Dis skoon en netjies. Vriendelike diens en die lekkerste kos. Die koekies in die kamer was die spreekwoordelike 'cherry' op die 'chocolate sundae'.

Baie aangename verblyf, die heerlikste ontbyt, en lekker groot badkamer en slaapkamer.

Die gesellige sitkamer tussen die slaapkamers verskaf lekker kuierplek. Ons sou enkelbeddens i.p.v. 'n dubbelbed verkies het. Die matras kon dalk ook bietjie fermer gewees het, maar beddegoed was baie goeie kwaliteit en skoon. Sjokolade op die bed was 'n lekker bederf! Beslis baie goeie waarde vir geld.

Very pleasant stay, the most delicious breakfast, and nice big bathroom and bedroom.

The cozy living room between the bedrooms provides a nice place to hang out. We would have single beds instead of preferred a double bed. The mattress could also have been a bit firmer, but the bedding was very good quality and clean. Chocolate on the bed was a nice treat! Definitely very good value for money.

Ons het dit vir vier dae as basis gebruik, baie rondgery, en saans lekker uitgerus.

Daar is twee kamers in die huis self (wat 'n badkamer met mekaar deel) en drie en suite-kamers in 'n buitegebou met sy eie sitkamer. Die atmosfeer is nogal soos die klein familiehotelletjies op die Italiaanse platteland. Die eienaar, 'n ervare sjef, is self die bestuurder en maak self die kos. Ontbyt is ingesluit. Die omelet veral is iets besonders, en elke dag subtiel anders. Hy maak ook elke dag aandete, wat 'n mens net na ontbyt moet bestel. Ons was ongelukkig elke aand besig, en moes tevrede wees om kwylbek te lees wat daardie aand bedien sou word.

We used it as a base for four days, drove around a lot, and had a good night's rest.

There are two rooms in the house itself (which share a bathroom) and three en-suite rooms in an outbuilding with its own lounge. The atmosphere is rather like the small family hotels in the Italian countryside. The owner, an experienced chef, is the manager himself and makes the food himself. Breakfast is included. The omelette in particular is something special, and subtly different every day. He also makes dinner every day, which one should only order after breakfast. Unfortunately we were busy every night, and had to settle for drooling to read what was to be served that night.
