Ons het ontsnap van die stad se geraas en heerlik gekuier!

Die diens was werklik van baie goeie gehalte. Gertrude is 'n juweel. Die ontbyt was heerlik en die rustigheid absoluut noodsaaklik. Ons het 'n uur massering geboek op ons eie stoepie en dit was hemels! Ek sal beslis weer gaan indien ek die kans kry.

We escaped from the city's noise and had a great time!

The service was really of very good quality. Gertrude is a gem. The breakfast was delicious and the tranquility absolutely essential. We booked an hour massage on our own patio and it was heavenly! I will definitely go again if I get the chance.

Will be back!

The attention to detail to make my stay as rewarding as possible did not escape me. One can never underestimate the steps required to be taken by the owner to add the personal touch, and the advice given on which excursions to participate in made my stay that much more encompassing. The thought and execution behind each breakfast was always a welcome surprise. Together, both the owner and the staff ensured my stay exceeded expectations.

Thank you, dear Andrew. Wow! The staff and I are thrilled to read your review today - big smiles all around! We are so glad that you could recoup at our special Thulamela post-op and hope to hear that you are 100% 'fighting fit' again! We just loved hosting you.

Die ontbyt was wonderlik gewees.

Vir die waarde kan hulle die stort opknap of nuwe vloere insit. Dit is bitter glad as jy stort en dalk 'n TV sal goed wees vir al vir die koue reëndae as jy binne wil bly en dalk donkerder gordyne by die kombuisvenster.

The breakfast was wonderful.

For the value, they can renovate the shower or put in new floors. It's very slippery when you shower and maybe a TV would be good for all the cold rainy days if you want to stay inside and maybe darker curtains at the kitchen window.

Thank you Jolinda for your review. We are very relieved to have made it through COVID and happy to be doing what we love. We have found that 99% of guests do not want TV's, but prefer the wifi installed to make use of their own devices. We are glad to be able to offer them wifi rather, this is the new travel trend requirement.
Hooray for the lekker breakfast feedback.
Thank you for the curtain tip.
I do hope there is good news about your doggie.

Ongelooflike aandag aan detail

Ons sal beslis weer na Thulamela Bed and Breakfast gaan. As eksklusiewe lodge bestuurders is ons bekend met wat dienste moet behels. Penny en haar span is 'n wonderlike voorbeeld van gasvryheid en alles wat daarmee saamgaan. Die rose, roosblare oral en die klein, vars ruikertjies in die bome al langs die paadjies laat mens tuis en welkom voel. Die ontbyt was heerlike en elke oggend wonder jy wat nou weer in die geskenkpakkie gaan wees. Kan beslis aanbeveel. Baie privaat.

We will definitely go to Thulamela Bed and Breakfast again. As exclusive lodge managers, we are familiar with what services should entail. Penny and her team are a wonderful example of hospitality and everything that goes with it. The roses, rose petals everywhere and the small, fresh bouquets in the trees all along the paths make you feel at home and welcome. The breakfast was delicious and every morning you wonder what will be in the gift package. Can definitely recommend. Very private.

Dit was baie lekker.

Ons het dit baie geniet. Veral die Jacuzzi aan die einde van 'n besige dag in die Wildtuin en om alles te verken. Ontbyt ook baie spesiaal, selfs die piekniekmandjie vir ons trippie deur die wildtuin was 'n lekker verrassing.

Heerlik rustig en ontspannend!

Ons het heerlik gekuier en die plekkie was skoon en netjies. Penny en haar span het ons huweliksherdenking spesiaal gemaak met roosblare met die paadjie af na ons eenheid met sjampanje wat reggestaan het op ys. Die ontbyt is keurig voorberei en baie lekker. Ons kan dit aanbeveel!

Nie so seker of die matras van die bed op standaard was nie. Dit het gelyk soos 'n dun matrassie bo-op die groot matras omdat die groot matras uitgedien is - was bitter ongemaklik.

Ons verblyf by Thulamela was baie aangenaam. Die eienaar doen baie moeite met die heerlike ontbyt en ekstra goedjies soos sjokolade ens.

Heerlike plekkie

Vreeslik romanties. Die eienaar en haar spannetjie was baie vriendlik en ons het lekker gebly. Al wat bietjie gepla het was lig in die eenheid - dit was bitter sleg, veral vir mense wat grimering wil doen vir ’n aand uit. Die stort het ook die snaaksste plastiek op die vloer - baie glad en mens kan vinnig seerkry. Anders as dit, was die verblyf en kos heerlik!

Lovely place

Terribly romantic. The owner and her team were very friendly and we had a great stay. All that bothered me a bit was the light in the unit - it was very bad, especially for people who want to do make-up for a night out. The shower also has the funniest plastic on the floor - very slippery and you can get hurt quickly. Other than that, the accommodation and food were delicious!

Die Jacuzzi was wonderlik en onderdak. Al het dit so effens gemotreën was dit lekker. Plekkie was goed toegerus.

Gasvrou was bedagsaam. Die Lindt-sjokolade en neute was lekker. Ek sou net 'n ysbak verkies het vir die wyn by die Jacuzzi. Andersins het ons baie lekker geslaap en die mooiste voëltjiegeluide in die oggend ontvang.

The Jacuzzi was great and covered. Even though it was drizzling a little, it was nice. Place was well equipped.

Hostess was considerate. The Lindt chocolate and nuts were delicious. I would have preferred just a cooler for the wine by the Jacuzzi. Otherwise, we slept very well and received the most beautiful bird sounds in the morning.

Fantastiese verblyf, vreemde ontvangs.

Ons is ongelukkig baie sarkasties en ongeskik ontvang, omdat ek vergeet het dat die hek se kode reeds aan my gestuur is waarna ek ontvangs gebel het om vir ons oop te maak (nommer soos op Thulamela se hek aangedui). Dit het ongelukkig 'n demper geplaas op die pragtige roosblare wat vir ons gestrooi is na ons plekkie toe ter viering van ons huweliksherdenking. Andersins was die verblyf baie netjies en privaat. Die borrelbad op die stoep saam met die bosgevoel van die woud om mens was wonderlik.

Fantastic stay, strange reception.

Unfortunately we were received very sarcastically and inappropriately, because I forgot that the gate's code had already been sent to me after which I called reception to open for us (number as indicated on Thulamela's gate). Unfortunately, this put a damper on the beautiful rose petals that were scattered for us to our place in celebration of our wedding anniversary. Otherwise, the accommodation was very neat and private. The hot tub on the porch with the forest feel of the forest around you was wonderful.

Onvergeetlik!

Penny is 'n lieflike mens en 'n fantastiese gasvrou! Sy het ons dadelik welkom laat voel. Daar was roosblare op die roete na die houthuisie toe, om die Jacuzzi en voor die bed, asook vars blomme op die tafel en kersies om die Jacuzzi. Dit is vir seker die ideale plek vir 'n romantiese wegbreek! Die ontbyt was hemels en uniek. Ons het elke oggend iets anders gekry. Die personeel was ongelooflik vriendelik en het baie moeite gedoen om ons tyd by Thulamela onvergeetlik te maak. Baie dankie Penny en die res van jou span - julle sal ons vir seker weer sien.

It is for sure the ideal place for a romantic getaway! The breakfast was heavenly and unique. We got something different every morning.

A beautiful place where one can enjoy complete rest. The breakfast was also out of the books.

We really enjoyed our stay at Thulamela. Penny is a wonderful hostess. Everything was beautiful, perfect, peaceful atmosphere. The breakfast was delivered to our unit and was a great treat. We can definitely recommend it.

Asemrowend mooi en fantastiese ligging en diens en ontbyt was puik.

Ons het die wonderlikste ervaring gehad met ons Roadtrip bike weekend en om die hele prentjie perfek te maak was die verblyf by Thulamela perfek. Omliggende besoek aan Sabie, Graskop en ander dorpies was puik. Baie dankie, julle is beslis 'n aanbeveling en sal julle weer besoek.

Romanties, rustig en siele rus.

Penny het ons so laat welkom voel en verduidelik waar ons oral na besigtighede en eetplekke kan gaan - wie wil nou rondloop as jy hier bly. Wonderlik, romanties, rustig. Ideaal om die huwelik weer te verfris en net bietjie alleen te wees van al die geskarrel. Natuur is pragtig groen en die voëls gee die agtergrondmusiek. Tuis gevoel in 'n netjiese, skoon houthuis, yskas gepak met al die nodige doppies, vars rose en roosblare op jou roete huisie toe, voetskuurders ens. En natuurlik die Jacuzzi met kersies - ag ek verlang al klaar terug. Heerlike ontbyt gebring deur vriendelike professionele personeel - lieflike naweek gewees.

Romantic, peaceful and soulful.

Penny made us feel so welcome and explained where we could go for sightseeing and places to eat - who wants to walk around when you stay here. Wonderful, romantic, peaceful. Ideal to refresh the marriage and just be a little alone from all the hustle and bustle. Nature is beautifully green and the birds provide the background music. Feeling at home in a neat, clean wooden house, fridge packed with all the necessary caps, fresh roses and rose petals on your route home, foot scrubbers etc. And of course the Jacuzzi with cherries - oh I'm already longing to go back. Delicious breakfast brought by friendly professional staff - had a lovely weekend.

Terugvoering oor Thulamela Bed and Breakfast.

Thulamela was 'n ongelooflike wegbreek. Die pragtige en skoon houtchalets gebou tussen 'n woud gee rus en stilte vir 'n mens se siel. Die ontbyt is uit die boonste rakke. Die ensnares en al haar staff is vriendelik behulpsaam en baie professioneel. Ek beveel Thulamela aan vir enige een wat hou van natuur en n totale rus.

Thulamela is werklik 'n plek waar mens met jou eggenoot/lewensmaat kan "connect", die natuurskoon kan geniet en uitgerus terugkeer huistoe.

Penny by Thulamela was 'n vriendelike en gasvrye gasvrou wat uit haar pad uit gegaan het om ons te akkommodeer en so ook haar personeel. Toe ons daar aankom was daar roosblare gestrooi en 'n bottel sjampanje wat op ons wag. Die kamer was netjies en goed toegerus. Ek en my man het heerlik uitgerus en vol lewe teruggekeer stad toe. Ek sal beslis Thulamela aanbeveel vir enige paartjie wat wil wegbreek.

When we arrived there were rose petals scattered and a bottle of champagne waiting for us. The room was neat and well equipped.

Baie mooi ligging en 'n rustige atmosfeer.

Vandat jy daar aankom tot wanneer jy weer ry word jy gegroet deur vriendelikheid, rustigheid en natuurskoon. Penny gaan uit haar pad uit met moeite. Roosblare orals, vars blomme en 'n koor van voëls verwelkom jou by jou huisie. Die ontbyt is hemels. Dis definitief 'n plek wat ek vir enige iemand sal aanbeveel wat 'n romantiese plek soek of net wil wegkom van die stad.

Very beautiful location and a peaceful atmosphere.

From the moment you arrive until you leave you are greeted by friendliness, peacefulness and scenic beauty. Penny goes out of her way with trouble. Rose petals everywhere, fresh flowers and a choir of birds welcome you at your house. The breakfast is delicious. It's definitely a place I would recommend to someone looking for a romantic spot or just want to get away from the city.

Dit was perfek. Ek sal enige tyd weer gaan. Penny is een besonderse mens.

Om elke oggend wakker te word en die voëltjies te hoor sing was perfek gewees. Ons het die dag afgesluit met 'n wyntjie in die spa, dit was ongelooflik lekker. Die rose wat in die paadjie gestrooi is tot by jou verblyf laat jou sommer dadelik tuis voel. Penny en haar personeel is regtig baie besonderse mense, en hulle doen baie moeite. Definitief die beste romantiese wegbreek.

It was perfect. I will be back any day. Penny is a very special person.

To wake each morning to bird song was just perfect. We ended the day with a glass of wine at the spa, it was unbelievably nice.

Penny and her staff are really special, they don't leave a stone unturned to make sure you are happy. Best romantic getaway ever.

Uniekheid wat jou uiters spesiaal laat voel!

Thulamela is inderdaad 'n unieke, rustige en romantiese bestemming. Alhoewel daar baie in die omgewing is om te doen, bly 'n skemerkelkie in die borrelbad by Thulamela die hoogtepunt van elke dag. Puik diens, puik etes, pynlik netjies en skoon - alles wat mens soek op 'n wegbreek tydjie en nog meer!

Pragtige privaat kothuis met Jacuzzi.

Ons het dit vreeslik geniet om by Thulamela oor te bly. Dit is baie privaat, rustig en romanties. Daar word ekstra moeite gedoen. Kerse, roosblare, alles om 'n romantiese atmosfeer te skep. Die ontbyt was iets besonders en baie lekker. Ons het ook 'n addisionele platter bestel, wat absoluut uit die boonste rakke was. Sal dit definitief aanbeveel vir 'n vinnige wegbreek.

Die naweek was 'n groot bederf met heerlike maaltye, pragtige natuurskoon en ontspanne tye in die spa. Die geraas van die pad en omliggende woongebiede was soms 'n bietjie steurend - maar niks wat die spa se borrels nie kon uitdoof nie!

As jy 'n plek soek om net tyd saam met jou man/vrou te spandeer is Thulamela die antwoord.

Die rustigheid van die natuur is bonatuurlik mooi en als die moeite werd. Die diens wat gelewer word kry jy nie sommer by enige plek nie, en dan nie eers om te praat van die wonderlike ontbyt nie.

The tranquility of nature is supernaturally beautiful and well worth the effort. You won't find the service provided just anywhere, not to mention the wonderful breakfast.

Everything about Thulamela was excellent! I will never stay at a other place if in Hazyview again.

This was a honeymoon experience I never will forget! We were alone in our little cottage and nobody disturbed us. We could look out and see the lovely scenery and enjoy the luxury of everything to our disposal This was one of those holidays you will never forget but actually want to write a article about and place it in a magazine. Thank you Penny for the wonderful & excellent breakfasts. Every time it felt like a present presented to you. Breakfast was marvellous and wrapped like a present and you are like a child who cannot wait to open it and see the surprise! This was the rest we were looking forward to and we are going to be regulars at Thulamela in future! I will recommend this place to all I come in touch with!

Absoluut fantasties!

Thulamela B&B, is absoluut puik en uitstekend, 'n fantastiese plekkie waar jy regtig rus en vrede vir jou siel kan vind. Dit is 'n baie romantiese omgewing. Penny en haar span is briljant, en die diens was onbeskryflik. Die ontbyt waarmee ons bederf was, is gelykstaande aan die beste vyfsterhotelle s'n. Baie dankie vir 'n onvergeetlikke tyd. Jy sien ons verseker baie gou weer.

Thulamela B&B, is absolutely superb and excellent, a fantastic place where you can really find rest and peace for your soul. It is a very romantic setting. Penny and her team are brilliant, and the service was indescribable. The breakfast we were treated to is equivalent to that of the best five-star hotels. Thank you very much for an unforgettable time. You will surely see us again very soon.

'n Heerlike ondervinding!

Baie vriendelik ontvang. Akkommodasie gerieflik, skoon en netjies. Ontbyt uit die boonste rakke en daar is baie moeite gedoen om ons tuis te laat voel. Veiligheidsmaatreëls uitstekend!

Uitstekende romantiese plekkie wat die "personal touch" het.

Lieflike en baie romanties as dit die idee was. Dit is 100% privaat en baie snoesig. Die spa-bad op die dek is ideal vir kwaliteit tyd saam jou geliefde.(Al is die aande dalk koud, word die water heerlik warm.) Ek sal dit beslis aanbeveel vir enige paartjie. Dit is ook naby genoeg aan Sabie en Graskop vir daguitstappies.

Excellent romantic spot that has the "personal touch".

Lovely and very romantic if that was the idea. It is 100% private and very cuddly. The spa bath on the deck is ideal for quality time with your loved one. (Although the evenings may be cold, the water gets deliciously warm.) I would definitely recommend it to any couple. It is also close enough to Sabie and Graskop for day trips.

Dit was heerlik, weggesteek in die bos en net wat ons nodig gehad het.

Sal dit beslis aanbeveel vir 'n vinnige wegbreek en ook naby die wildtuin. Die Jacuzzi was 'n lekkerte, dankie vir die netheid en die heerlike ontbyt.

Ons was ongelooflik beïndruk en aangenaam verras. Verdien beslis vyf sterre!

Ons was ongelooflik beïndruk en aangenaam verras met Thulamela. Daar was geen TV, geen radio, net totale rustigheid, net die geroep van voëltjies. Die etes was indrukwekkend, die diens was ook voortreflik. Kerslig, roosblare en 'n ongelooflike uitsig sal my beslis laat terugkeer na Thulamela. Totale privaatheid tussen eenhede maak dit ook ekstra spesiaal. Werklik die ideale plekkie vir 'n wegbreek. Was heerlik om daar te ontspan. Sal Thulamela beslis aanbeveel.

We were incredibly impressed and pleasantly surprised. Definitely deserves five stars!

We were incredibly impressed and pleasantly surprised with Thulamela. There was no TV, no radio, just total peace, just the calls of birds. The meals were impressive, the service was also excellent. Candlelight, rose petals and an incredible view will definitely make me return to Thulamela. Total privacy between units also makes it extra special. Truly the ideal spot for a getaway. Was lovely to relax there. Would definitely recommend Thulamela.

Die ideale plek om weg te breek van die besige samelewing!

Thulamela het baie moeite gedoen, die plekkie het so mooi gelyk toe ons daar aankom. Dit was stil en rustig - ideaal vir 'n wegbreek van die besige samelewing. Die ontbyt was iets anders en BAIE LEKKER!

Just awesome!

My wife and I went to Thulamela for our 15th anniversary, and what a wonderful experience. The Jacuzzi and breakfast is a definite winner :). The service from Penny and her staff were excellent. The chalet was clean, well-furnished and the view spectacular. At first I was disappointed that there was no TV but at the end of the day didnâ??t even miss it. Once again, thank you Penny for making our stay special.

'n Wonderlike verrassing.......Thulamela-gom is terapie vir hom en haar â?¥

'n Paradys vir voëlkykers..ons het 'first sightings' van 'n hele paar spesies gehad. Die ligging is van so aard dat ons al die spesiale plekke in die Laeveld kon opsoek. Hierdie is 'n wenresep: afronding, pragtige linne, 'n bos rose, 'n braaivleisplek, goeie koffie......voeg daarby stilte, natuurskoon en afsondering - gaan beleef dit!

A wonderful surprise.......Thulamela gum is therapy for him and her â?¥

A paradise for bird watchers..we had 'first sightings' of quite a few species. The location is such that we could look up all the special places in the Lowveld. This is a winning recipe: finishing touches, beautiful linen, a bush of roses, a barbecue place, good coffee......add to that silence, natural beauty and seclusion - go and experience it!
