Lovely farm experience!

Great spot! Due to flooding, the road to the farm was a little difficult to drive in a small car, but we made it eventually. Lovely place and friendly people. We enjoyed our evening, thank you!

Lekker rustige plaasatmosfeer.

Werfhuisie was'n lekker wegbreek vir ons van die gewoel by die huis. My dogter het te lekker met die honde gespeel en die eienaars self was baie vriendelik en gasvry. Al wat bietjie gepla het is die 2 stoele by die kombuistafeltjie is bietjie onstabiel en ongemaklik, tafel self ook bietjie wankelrig. Die enkelbed wat hul aan die voorkant vir ons gesit het se matras is baie pap. Maar verder het ons regtig die naweek geniet. Hoop ons kry kans om weer te kom kuier. Ek't so lekker gekuier, sommer my heuning daar vergeet.

Nice peaceful farm atmosphere.

Werfhuisie was a nice break for us from the hustle and bustle at home. My daughter had a great time playing with the dogs and the owners themselves were very friendly and hospitable. All that bothered me a bit is the 2 chairs at the kitchen table are a bit unstable and uncomfortable, the table itself is also a bit wobbly. The single bed they put for us at the front has a very soft mattress. But other than that we really enjoyed the weekend. Hope we get a chance to visit again. I had such a good time, just forgot my honey there.

Rustige plaasatmosfeer.

Baie vriendelike en behulpsame gasheer. Die huisie is klein, maar die bed is heerlik groot met goeie linne en kussings. Daar is twee groot honde wat lekker saamkuier, 'n buitebraai en kaggeltjie binne vir koue aande.

Die Werfhuisie is onafgerond en slordig.

Die eienaar was baie gasvry, maar die huisie self is onafgerond en slordig. Dit sal lekker wees as daar 'n stoel of 2 by die tafel op die stoep is. Die matras en beddegoed was baie gerieflik.

Ons het die omgewing die naweek verken en Werfhuisie is sentraal geleë om gemaklik al die besienswaardighede te besoek. Vir die koue aande is daar die houtstofie om na uit te sien. Lekker gekuier.

Ongelooflik lekker.

Ons het as vreemdelinge op die plaas aangekom en ons is daar weg as goeie vriende. Henry en sy gesin het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons tydjie op die plaas so aangenaam as moontlik te maak. Hulle deel graag hulle kennis van die omgewing, wat dit vir ons moontlik gemaak het om plekke te verken wat ons andersins nie eens van sou weet nie. Die akkommodasie was basies (soos wat dit hoort op die plaas), maar meer as voldoende en uiters skoon en netjies.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Incredibly delicious.

We arrived on the farm as strangers and we left there as good friends. Henry and his family went out of their way to make our time on the farm as pleasant as possible. They are happy to share their knowledge of the area, which made it possible for us to explore places we wouldn't even know about otherwise. The accommodation was basic (as it should be on the farm), but more than adequate and extremely clean and tidy.

Bekostigbare, basiese verblyf

Basies en netjies toegeruste verblyf met braaiplek en lekker groot bed met 'n gerieflike matras en beddegoed van goeie gehalte. Ons is vriendelik ontvang deur Henry, wat ook baie inligting oor die area met ons gedeel het. Selfs nadat ek my skootrekenaar se laaier daar vergeet het, het hy moeite gedoen om dit aan ons terug te besorg. Sy dogter het dit saam geneem Paarl toe en ons kon dus gemaklik ry vanaf die Kaap om dit by haar te kry. Baie dankie Henry vir die inligting, goeie diens en lekker oorslaap.

Affordable, basic accommodation

Basic and neatly equipped accommodation with a braai area and a nice big bed with a comfortable mattress and good quality bedding. We were kindly received by Henry, who also shared a lot of information about the area with us. Even after I forgot my laptop charger there, he went out of his way to return it to us. His daughter took it with her to Paarl and we could therefore comfortably drive from the Cape to get it to her. Thank you very much Henry for the information, good service and a good night's sleep.

Werfhuisie is 'n oulike, skoon blyplekkie met 'n baie gasvrye gasheer.

Ons is baie hartlik ontvang en Henry het werklik moeite gedoen om ons vrae oor die besienswaardighede in Waenhuiskrans te beantwoord. Dit was ongelukkig net baie warm in die huisie, en ons dink 'n waaier sal in die somer baie welkom wees. Nadat ons meer gaan oplees het, het ons tot ons verbasing besef watter prominente rol die Pratt-families in die geskiedenis van die omgewing speel. Henry, ons dink dis 'n groot pluspunt vir Werfhuisie spesifiek, maar ook die omgewing. Julle kan dalk 'n paar bladsye info saamvat oor die plaas en Pratt-familie, en dit in die huisie in rame uitstal/ophang - julle gaste behoort baie daarvan te hou!

A cute, clean place with a very hospitable host.

We were warmly welcomed and Henry went through a lot of effort to answer all our questions on attractions in Waenhuiskrans. Unfortunately is was super hot in the house, so a fan would be welcome. After we did our research, we realised to our surprise what big role the Pratt families play in the history of this town. Henry, we think it's a big plus for Werfhuisie specifically, but also for the environment. You can maybe take a few pages with info on the farm and Pratt family and hang it on the walls of the house, the guests should like it a lot!

Rustigheid. Stilte. Natuur. Netheid. Vriendlikheid. Korrespondensie tydens bespreking - PERFEK!

LekkeSlaap se diens 100%. Blyplek net wat ons gesoek het. Het net 1 aand oorgebly, maar wens kon langer! Die rustigheid, plaasopset, die braai met al die bankies en hoekies buite is baie "snoesig". Ligging is ook ideaal. Hou daarvan dat die eienaar ook kontak maak met 'n mens en dat 'n mens vrae kan vra presies wat die opset is. Word sterk aanbeveel om weg te breek van die woelige stad!

The tranquility, farm setting, the barbecue with all the benches and corners outside is very "cuddly". Location is also ideal.
