Uniek, netjies & gemaklike verblyf.

'n Baie unieke ervaring om in 'n ou watertoring te bly! Verblyf is gemaklik, met alles wat jy nodig het, en die hout dek is die perfekte plek om jou oggend koffie, of 'n glas wyn onder die Karoo sterre te geniet. Beslis waarde vir geld!

Unique, neat & comfortable accommodation.

A very unique experience to stay in an old water tower! Accommodation is comfortable, with everything you need, and the wooden deck is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, or a glass of wine under the Karoo stars. Definitely value for money!

Gerieflike, skoon en bekostigbare verblyf.

Baie aangename verblyf. The Water Tower sal dalk nie vir almal wees nie. Daar is 'n baie nou trappie na die slaapkamer bo die kombuis, en verkieslik nie vir ouer persone nie. Die toilet en stort is 'n aparte vertrek buite, so hou dit in gedagte veral as jy die geriewe deur die nag wil gebruik. Baie gerieflike blyplek wat uniek is vir mense wat hou van iets anders.

Comfortable, clean and affordable accommodation.

Very pleasant stay. The Water Tower may not be for everyone. There is a very narrow staircase to the bedroom above the kitchen, and preferably not for older people. The toilet and shower are a separate room outside, so keep that in mind especially if you want to use the facilities during the night. Very comfortable place to stay that is unique for people who like something different.

Perfect location. Quirky accommodation.

This is a wonderful, different kind of stay for young people/students who expect little of accommodation, as it is very basic. The outside loo was unexpected, and a bit of a mission getting down the steep flight of stairs from the bedroom to go outside at night. The staircase could do with a safety railing as it was daunting negotiating the narrow space between the bed and the hole of the staircase.

Voldoende oornag.

Die puttoilet was 'n ervaring gewees. Die akkommodasie was voldoende vir een nag se oorslaap. Dit is gerieflik geleë. Het net die toring effens klein/beknop ervaar. Die gasvrou was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Lekker gebly ten spyte van al die gebreke.

Kon beter gewees het. Geen plek om klere te sit nie, geen tafeltjies in slaapkamer. Matras lê op grond. Tafeltjie in kombuis heeltemal te klein om bruikbaar te wees. Een stoel se pote afgebreek. Messe stomp. Geen lig op dek of by braaiplek, moet in donker braai. Geen WIFi, alhoewel dit so aangedui word op die webtuiste.

Nice stay despite all the flaws.

Could have been better. No place to put clothes, no tables in bedroom. Mattress lying on ground. Small table in kitchen far too small to be useful. One chair's legs broken off. Knives blunt. No light on deck or at braai area, must braai in the dark. No WIFi, although it is indicated as such on the website.

We loved our stay in the Water Tower.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Water Tower. It had everything we needed and was perfectly situated to walk around the town. It was lovely to sit on the deck and read my book as the sun went down. The bed was comfortable and the little kitchen was well-suited to our needs. The host was most helpful on our arrival and showed us all the points of interest in Nieu Bethesda, and gave us a handy booklet with a map. We will definitely be back.

A little town that is slowly decaying unfortunately.

The town seems to be falling apart. The owl museum, as good as it is, needs people to tend the gardens and not just collect money and sit around doing nothing all day! Village is quaint but in need of homeowners looking after their homes.

Baie lekker gebly en gekuier.

Die parkering mag 'n probleem wees veral as ander gaste iets sleep aangesien die parkering met die backpackers gedeel word. Ek sal wel nie die plek vir ouer mense wat sukkel om te loop of om trappies te klim aanbeveel nie.

The parking may be a problem especially if other guests are dragging something as the parking is shared with the backpackers. I would not recommend the place for older people who have difficulty walking or climbing stairs.

Oornag op pad terug Gauteng toe.

Wat 'n wonderlike ondervinding om in die watertoring te oornag. Dit het alles wat jy nodig het. Alhoewel dit een van die koudste nagte was, het ons heerlik warm geslaap met elektriese kombers en daar was ook kerse vir loadshedding. Alhoewel daar net 'n puttoilet is, was dit skoon en reukloos. Die huis was ook netjies en skoon. Beslis aanbeveelbaar vir die hippie-hart.

Overnight on the way back to Gauteng.

What a wonderful experience to spend the night in the water tower. It has everything you need. Although it was one of the coldest nights, we slept wonderfully warm with an electric blanket and there were also candles for loadshedding. Although there is only a pit toilet, it was clean and odorless. The house was also neat and clean. Definitely recommended for the hippie heart.

Was die moeite werd en iets anders.

Baie oulike plekkie, maar as jy moeilik beweeg en bietjie rond is, is die plekkie nie vir jou nie. Die trappe na die slaapkamer is steil en die luik waardeur jy moet gaan, nogals nou. Maar die eienaars het ons vooraf gewaarsku. Maar as jy nog jonk of ouer en nog baie beweeglik is, beveel ek dit beslis aan.

Was worth it and something different.

Very cute place, but if you have difficulty moving and are a bit round, the place is not for you. The stairs to the bedroom are steep and the hatch you have to go through is quite narrow. But the owners warned us in advance. But if you are still young or older and still very mobile, I definitely recommend it.

The Water Tower 's response

Dear Danie
the photos on Lekkeslaap website are authentic and one can see exactly what the Water Tower looks like. The writen text explains quite clearly what the Water Tower is about.
In our confirmation email to you we wrote in capital letters that the Water Tower is not for the elderly or infirm. You did not mention your dog, we don't allow guests with dogs. Pets are not only dogs, and it says also that pets are allowed by prior arrangement. And remember that we offered you alternative accommodation when we met you, and saw that you are not going to be comfortable at the Water Tower and you decided to stay at Outsiders instead.
All the best and have a Happy Festive Season. Regards, Katrin

Heerlike en asemrowende ervaring. 'n Moet om ten minste een keer in jou lewe te ervaar.

Alhoewel die watertoring 'n klein plekkie is, was hy besonders goed ingerig met alles wat jy kan nodig kry. Alhoewel ek sal aanbeveel dat dit beter sal wees om nie in die winter daar te bly nie, want die toilet is buite, was daar 'n verwarmer en warmkomberse wat ons heerlik warm gehou het. Die bestuur van die watertoring het ons ten minste weekliks opdatum gehou van wat om te verwag en/ook gewaarsku teen die styl trappe na die slaap kamer. Beide ek en my vriendin is 57 en ons het met gemak op en af beweeg teen die trappe.

Delicious and breathtaking experience. A must to experience at least once in your life.

Although the water tower is a small place, it was exceptionally well appointed with everything you could need. Although I would recommend that it would be better not to stay there in winter as the toilet is outside, there was a heater and warm blankets which kept us lovely warm. The management of the water tower kept us up to date at least weekly on what to expect and/also warned us of the style stairs to the bedroom. Both my girlfriend and I are 57 and we moved up and down the stairs with ease.

Interessante maar netjiese verblyf gepas vir die vreemde dorpie.

Die verblyf laat mens deel voel van die vreemde verhaal van die dorp. Dit is baie netjies en goed gelëe. Gepas vir jonges met geen gestremdhede. Trappe sal wel onveilig wees vir kinder of bejaardes. Daar was warm water en n heerlike stort. Geen spoel toilet.

Hospita wat volledige inligting oor behuising en omgewing gebied het. Netjies en skoon, alle nodige geriewe vir heerlike oorslaap.

Nie aan te beveel vir mense wat nie goed smal, steil trappies kan klim nie. Houtdek op die boonste vlak bied in die aand die mooiste uitsig op die sterre. Klein ruimte baie slim en goed ingerig. Dankie vir 'n lekker oorslaap.

Lekker slaapplek

Die eenheid het ’n goeie bed en lekker stoep. Die kombuis was voldoende. Dit sou lekker wees as mens nie buite om hoef te gestap het om by toilet uit te kom nie. Dit was wel 'n baie unieke blyplek vir die tyd wat ons daar was.

Unieke ervaring.

Ons verblyf was baie aangenaam en om op die dek te sit en 'n sundowner te drink was baie lekker. Daar is 'n paar goedjies wat dalk met 'n bietjie onderhoud kan doen soos die dek. Dit sal ook n groot verskil maak as daar 'n paar eenvoudige rakkies en hakke bo aangebring kan word.

Unique experience.

Our stay was very enjoyable and sitting on the deck and drinking a sundowner was very enjoyable. There are some things that might need a bit of maintenance like the deck. It will also make a big difference if a few simple racks and heels can be fitted on top.

Baie vreemde opset maar ons het dit verwag so het dit geniet vir een nag se oorslaap.

Eksentriek en interressant. Sal dit nie aanbeveel vir langer as 2 nagte nie. Ons kleinseun van 4 jaar het dit baie geniet. Dit was lekker! Longdrop baie interessant maar na 2 dae kan die reuk dalk te veel raak. Gaan slaap gerus vir 'n nag in iets heeltemal anders!

Lieflike skoon, gemaklike oorslaap in hartjie van Nieu Bethesda.

Die plekkie was skoon, goeie linne op die bed. Effense nou, steil trappies na slaaparea. Lieflike dek waar mens kan sterre kyk op oop skoon karoonagte. Muskietmasjien was alreeds aan met aankoms - weet vorige gaste het gekla oor die muskiete! "Badkamer" aangrensend was skoon - heerlike warm water en geen reuk van toilet (gemoderniseerde "long drop" ) wat ook 'n klagte was van vorige gaste. Sou regtig langer wou bly.

Lovely clean, comfortable sleepover in the heart of New Bethesda.

The place was clean, good linen on the bed. Slightly narrow, steep steps to sleeping area. Lovely deck where one can look at the stars on open clear caroon nights. Mosquito machine was already on on arrival - know previous guests complained about the mosquitoes! "Bathroom" adjacent was clean - lovely hot water and no smell from toilet (modernized "lung drop") which was also a complaint of previous guests. Would really like to stay longer.

Dit is 'n tipiese backpackers-verblyf.

Die slaapvertrek is bo en die trappe is nie geskik vir swaar en groot geboude mense nie. Die stort en toilet is buite in 'n ander vertrek. Dit is 'n kompostoilet. Persone wat in die nag in die donker rondbeweeg moet eerder nie daar bly nie, aangesien dit onveilig is en hulle dalk by die trappe kan afval weens die beperkte spasie.

This is a typical backpackers stay.

The sleeping area is upstairs and the stairs are not suitable for heavy and large people. The shower and toilet are outside in another room. It is a compost toilet. People who move around in the dark at night should rather not stay there, as it is unsafe and may fall off the stairs due to limited space.

Loved this funky little place.

I loved this little place and it was just what I wanted for my first stay in Nieu Bethesda. Not a place I would stay longer than a weekend, but it was perfect for the time we spent there. The deck was wonderful and an awesome space to have my quiet time in the morning. I wouldn't advise anyone to stay here in winter as the bathroom is attached to the place and not inside. My first time with a toilet like that, so it took some getting used to, but not a problem for me for a short time.

Interessant, skoon, maar basies.

Ons het lekker gebly, maar dit is "goedkoop afwerking" en kort bietjie aandag. Tog was dit 'n oulike idee om die watertoring te omskep in verblyf. As jy bereid is om in 'n boomhuis op te klim, en daardie tipe avontuur het, is dit oulik. Ek sal weer terug kom. (Ons is 45-50 jr oud). Ek sou se moenie hierheen kom as jy bo 55 en vol nonsense is nie.

Interesting, clean, but basic.

We had a nice stay, but it is "cheap finishing" and needs a bit of attention. Even so it was a cute idea to repurpose the water tower as accommodation. If you are willing to climb up into a treehouse, and that type of adventure, it is very nice. I will come again. (We are 45 - 50 years old) I would say don't visit it if you are older than 55 and full of nonsense.

Onaangenaam.

Ons is gewaarsku dat die akkommodasie basies is. Ons het nie primitief verwag nie! Daar is 'n put-toilet wat buite die kamer is en 'n stort wat nie behoorlik werk nie. Die bed is feitlik gelyk met die grond en dit is onmoontlik om 'n tas met die trappe op te dra. Daar is geen handreling om die gat waar die trappe afgaan nie wat uiters gevaarlik is. Die pragtige aandete by die Poskantoor was egter uitstekend.

Unpleasant.

We were warned that the accommodation was basic. We did not expect primitive! There is a pit toilet that is outside the room and a shower that does not work properly. The bed is practically level with the ground and it is impossible to carry a suitcase up the stairs. There is no handrail around the hole where the stairs go down which is extremely dangerous. However, the beautiful dinner at the Post Office was excellent.

Baie lekker ervaring!

Dis is beslis iers anders. Baie lekker plekkie vir twee. Die eko-toilet is dalk nie vir almal nie ,maar jy kan altyd ook die toilet gebruik van die Owlhouse backpackers wat net langsaan is. Dit was skoon en netjies. Trappies op na slaapkamer is redelik steil en party mense sal dalk bietjie sukkel om daar te op en af. Die dek bo is 'n heerlike kuier en ontspan plek. Die ligging in Nieu Bethesda is perfek, alles kan maklik met 'n kort stappie bereik word. Ons sal beslis weer daar gaan bly.

It's definitely different. Very nice place for two. The eco-toilet may not be for everyone, but you can always also use the toilet of the Owlhouse backpackers which is just next door. It was clean and tidy. Stairs up to the bedroom are quite steep and some people might have a bit of trouble getting up and down there. The deck above is a lovely place to visit and relax. The location in New Bethesda is perfect, everything can be easily reached with a short walk. We will definitely stay there again.

'n Unieke ervaring wat op 'n spesifieke teienmark gerig is - dit was opwindend en heerlik!

Die huisvesting is so "tong in die kies" - vir mense wat kans sien vir iets onkonvensioneels. Alles was so mooi skoon en netjies, en die buitedek is ideaal vir sterrekyk. Die trapleer na die slaapkamer het gesorg vir humoristiese oomblikke. Dit is nie die tipe akkommodasie waar mens gemaklik sal wees vir 'n week nie - maar vir 'n nag of twee is dit 'n verfrissende ervaring. Baie dankie!

A unique experience targeted at a specific teen market - it was exciting and delicious!

The accommodation is so "tongue in cheek" - for people who see a chance for something unconventional. Everything was so nice clean and tidy, and the outside deck is ideal for stargazing. The staircase to the bedroom made for some humorous moments. This is not the type of accommodation where one would be comfortable for a week - but for a night or two it is a refreshing experience.

Die Water Tower is glad nie luuks nie, maar dis wat dit so spesiaal maak. Ons het selde al in 'n plekkie gebly wat so sjarmant is.

The Water Tower is perfect for New Betheda!

The Water Tower is not luxurious at all, but that's what makes it so special. We have rarely stayed in a place that is so charming.

Speelse, eenvoudige sjarme in die hart van Nieu Bethesda.

Ons het die tydjie in Nieu Bethesda so geniet. Op ons aankoms was die verwarmer reeds aan, en het die 'huis' 'n warm atmosfeer gehad. Die stort was wel 'n bietjie van 'n uitdaging om die temperatuur te reguleer, en die toilet het my omtrent teruggevat na die dae van skoolkampe. Maar dit dra by tot die sjarme van eenvoud. Ons sal beslis die Water Tower aanbeveel en weer daar bly. Dankie ook aan LekkeSlaap wat altyd 'n plekkie het wat ons geniet.

Playful, simple charm in the heart of New Bethesda.

We enjoyed the time in New Bethesda so much. On our arrival the heater was already on, and the 'house' had a warm atmosphere. The shower was a bit of a challenge to regulate the temperature though, and the toilet almost took me back to the days of school camps. But it adds to the charm of simplicity. We would definitely recommend the Water Tower and stay there again. Thanks also to LekkeSlaap who always has a place that we enjoy.
