Tranquil, tidy, and terrific.

Our stay at Xamarin Guest Farm was an exceptional experience for our group of eight, comprised of three separate families and a 12-year-old child. The serene atmosphere and impeccable cleanliness of the place left us thoroughly impressed. It offered a peaceful and tranquil environment that we absolutely loved. We will be back.

6 km van die see, see-uitsig, op 'n plaas, soveel voëlspesies = Lekke-wegbreek.

Baie dankie, ons het baie lekker ontspan. Dit is 'n ruim huisie op 'n werkende plaas, maar tog kan die stilte geniet word. Baie dankie aan ons gasvrou, vir al haar hulp, veral om berge op 'n Saterdagmiddag te versit om die TV-sein te laat herstel. Voëlkykers gaan die groot verskeidenheid, tot kwartels, baie geniet. Ook die nabyheid van Bird Island by Lambertsbaai. WiFi of beter selfoonsein sou egter baie handig gewees het om onder andere die blomme-webblaai te kon bestudeer.

6 km from the sea, sea view, on a farm, so many bird species = Lekke getaway.

Thank you very much, we had a great time relaxing. It is a spacious cottage on a working farm, yet the silence can be enjoyed. Many thanks to our hostess, for all her help, especially moving mountains on a Saturday afternoon to restore the TV signal. Bird watchers will really enjoy the great variety, right up to quail. Also the proximity of Bird Island at Lamberts Bay. However, WiFi or a better mobile phone signal would have been very handy to be able to study the flower web page, among other things.

Die eenheid was oor die algemeen goed toegerus en netjies. Die badkamer kan doen met 'n bietjie ekstra skoonmaak/opknapping; silikoonseëls in die stort is geel en gemuf, en die toiletsitplek is geskaaf.

Pragtige plekkie met die regte ligging. Skoon, netjies, alle geriewe.

Ons het die Peacock huisie gebruik. Wat 'n lekker naweek. Die ontvangsreëlings was vroeg al deurgegee met al die nodige besonderhede vir ons aankoms. Ons was selfs in kennis gestel van die area se loadshedding wat 'n bonus was. Eerste aand se sonsondergang was iets om te beleef, die poue kom tot by jou huisie elke namiddag en oggend, ons het selfs 'n paar skape met hul lammers gehad wat kom groet het. Ons kinders, 7 en 9, kon lekker met hulle stoot/skopfietse op die sementpad ry en die plaas bietjie verken. Lekker op ons stoep gebraai en die sterre gekyk die eerste aand. Die sonsopkoms was net so mooi gewees. Daar is ook 'n brief gewees op die tafel met ons aankoms met al die nodige nommers vir die dorp. Restaurante se besonderhede en noodnommers wat fantasties was. Minette was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam gewees. Baie baie dankie Minette. Ons sal definitief in die toekoms weer daar kom bly. Ons praat al klaar van 'n vriende-trip te reël. Die verblyf is 5 km buite Lambertsbaai reg oorkant Jackal Creek. Jy sien die mooi landgoed en die see van jou stoep en is veilig. Jackal Creek self het 'n mooi gholfbaan wat ons volgende keer sal gebruik en is loopafstand van verblyf. Ons kon ook hout daar koop in plaas van dorp toe te moet ry.

Beautiful place with the right location. Clean, tidy, all amenities.

We used the Peacock cottage. What a nice weekend. The reception arrangements were given early on with all the necessary details for our arrival. We were even informed about the area's loadshedding which was a bonus. First night's sunset was something to experience, the peacocks come to your cottage every afternoon and morning, we even had some sheep with their lambs come to say hello. Our children, 7 and 9, were able to ride their push/kick bikes on the cement road and explore the farm a bit. Had a nice barbecue on our porch and watched the stars the first night. The sunrise was just as beautiful. There was also a letter on the table upon our arrival with all the necessary numbers for the town. Restaurants details and emergency numbers which were fantastic. Minette had been very friendly and helpful. Thank you very much Minette. We will definitely stay there again in the future. We are already talking about organizing a friends trip. The accommodation is 5 km outside Lamberts Bay directly opposite Jackal Creek. You see the beautiful estate and the sea from your porch and are safe. Jackal Creek itself has a nice golf course which we will use next time and is walking distance from accommodation. We could also buy wood there instead of having to drive to town.

Rustige plaasatmosfeer tussen die wingerde.

Ons het gehou van die ongekunstelde geriewe en versierings. Plek was netjies en skoo,n en het alles gehad wat ons nodig gekry het. Die besoeke van die poue was 'n bonus. Jy sien die mooiste sonsondergange vanaf die sebra- en perdestal. Lambertsbaai is naby genoeg om iets the koop as jy iets sou kort. Beurtkrag het ons nie gepla nie want ons het kerse gehad.

Ons moes borde, bakke, koppies - alles was om te gebruik! Die vuilheid was duidelik sigbaar. Vet in borde, koffie wat nog onder aan koppies vassit van half was. Baie spinnekoppe! Ons wou nie eers aan die slaap raak nie, so erg was dit! Verwaarloos.

Xamarin Guest Farm 's response

Goeie dag Estelle
Eks baie jammer dat julle ongelukkig was, julle moes my gesê het.
Ek weet van die breekgoed, maar dit is nie vuil nie, dit is gevlek. Ek het reeds nuwe breekware bestel, wag vir dit om afgelewer te word om te vervang.
Dit is mos maar plaas en daardie naweek was dit vreeslik warm, julle vensters was heeltyd oop so die miggies kon inkom. Ek bly self ook op die plaas en die miggies was orals 'n probleem daardie naweek.
Weereens jammer.

Plaasatmosfeer tussen die wingerde.

Ons het lekker geslaap op die plaas en die poue was goeie geselskap. Tydens ons reis het ons twee daar oornag.

We slept well on the farm and the peacocks were good company. During our trip, the two of us spent the night there.

Waarde vir geld

Ons het heerlik by Xamarin gebly. Die eenheid was netjies, skoon en baie ruim met alles wat mens benodig. Die decor in netjies en huislik. Die gasvrou is vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Dit het ook baie vir ons beteken dat hulle ag slaan op Covid regulasies. Lieflike plaas atmosfeer en die Poue was 'n aangename toegevoede bonus vir die kinders. Die plaas is ook lekker naby aan die dorp, en restaurante geleë. Die toegangsbeheer en veilige parkeerplek is altyd 'n pluspunt vir vakansiegangers.

We had a great stay at Xamarin. The unit was neat, clean and very spacious with everything you need. The decor in neat and homely. The hostess is friendly and very helpful. It also meant a lot to us that they pay attention to Covid regulations. Lovely farm atmosphere and the Peacocks were a pleasant added bonus for the children. The farm is also located nice and close to the town, and restaurants. The access control and secure parking are always a plus for holidaymakers.

Die gevoel van plaas en rustigheid was fantasties.

Die voordeel van Xamarin is jy is nie vasgevang in die besige Lambertsbaai nie. Dit is die voordeel van twee wêrelde deur op plaas te bly teen beter prys en ook nog see te sien. Die ligging is ook letterlik 7 min se ry van dorp. Die plaas atmosfeer en rustigheid is die wenner.

This review is being shown in its original language.

The feeling of farm and tranquility was fantastic.

The advantage of Xamarin is you are not stuck in the busy Lambertsbaai. It is the benefit of two worlds by staying on a farm at a better price and still seeing the sea. The location is also literally 7 minutes drive from town. The farm atmosphere and tranquility is the winner.

Baie beïndruk met wat ons gekry het vir die prys.

Ek was aangenaam verras met wat ons gekry het teen 'n prys van slegs R700. Die ligging op 'n plaas tussen wingerde gee 'n lekker atmosfeer aan die plekkie, en die see op die horison dra by tot 'n algehele bevredigende ervaring.

Alles 5-ster - net veiligheid kan bietjie verbeter.

Die uitsig, rustigheid en opset oor die algemeen is fantasties - enigste beswaar is dat ons nie langer kon bly nie. Hoewel mens nooit onveilig voel nie, is ons Gautengers maar ingestel op maks veiligheid - dalk net 'n veiligheidshek vir voordeur sonder om karakter te benadeel. Baie dankie!

Everything 5-star - just tidiness that can be improved.

The view, peacefulness and setup in general are fantastic - only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer. Even though you never feel unsafe, we are from Gauteng and are focused on maximum safety - maybe put a safety gate by the front door without impacting the character. Thank you!

Ons was 'n toergroep van 8 wat 2 eenhede gebruik het. Genoeg spasie en die binnebraai het baie lekker gewerk. Ons het seep in die badkamers gemis. Na 'n lang reis moes ons eers tasse uitpak vir seep voordat ons kon hande was.

Trounaweek by Bosduifklip.

Ons het primer hierdie verblyf bespreek omdat dit regtig naby aan die Bosduifklip geleë is. Dit was basies met die nodige beskikbaar. Onthou egter om jou eie melk saam te neem, siende dat daar koffie en tee beskikbaar was, maar geen melk. Ook is al die nodige beskikbaar in Lambertsbaai. Die naam van die verblyf, "Peacock House", is inderdaad so met heelwat poue wat rondom die huisie woon. Met gevolg dat hulle ook gereeld hulle besigheid op die stoep en stoep se tafel kom doen het, wat minder aangenaam was.

Dit was 'n heerlike deel-van-die-plaas-gevoel.

Alles was huis - alhoewel die sitkamerstel besonder ongemaklik is, het ons dit steeds geniet! 'n Braaitang sal nogal van groot hulp wees (die res van die toerusting perfek), en voorts sal 'n hand-ontsmetter in die badkamer baie gehelp het (daar was geen ontsmettingsmiddel of seep nie); en daar was ook net 'n halwe rol toiletpapier. Die plekkie is pragtig en perfek - dit benodig net 'n direkte hand om soms 'n finale oog te gooi, maar sterk aan te bevele, dit is pragtig.

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

It was a lovely part-of-the-farm feeling.

Everything was home - although the lounge set is particularly uncomfortable, we still enjoyed it! A tong would be quite a big help (the rest of the equipment perfect), and furthermore a hand sanitizer in the bathroom would have helped a lot (there was no sanitizer or soap); and there was also only half a roll of toilet paper. The place is beautiful and perfect - it just needs a direct hand to throw a final eye sometimes, but highly recommended, it is beautiful.

Weer was maar koud, maar plekkie was cosy.

Sou lekker gewees het as die kaggel binne bruikbaar was. Baie mooi area en sou beslis langer daar kon vertoef. Dit sal goed wees as daar vooraf 'n skedule deurgegee kan word van wanneer waterpompe af is sodat 'n mens nie per ongeluk in die stort staan en daar dan geen water is nie. Verder was als vir ons baie gerieflik en van hoë gehalte. Genoegsame spasie vir 4 volwassenes. Kan dalk ook heater panels teen mure oorweeg (dit is net 'n voorstel).

The weather was cold, but the place was cozy.

Would have been nice if the fireplace inside was usable. Very nice area and could definitely stay longer there. It would be good if a schedule could be given in advance of when water pumps are off so that one does not accidentally stand in the shower and then there is no water. Furthermore, everything was very convenient and of high quality for us. Sufficient space for 4 adults. Might also consider heater panels on walls (this is just a suggestion).

Aangename verblyf met pragtige uitsig. Kamers skoon en netjies.

Die Whatsapp was 'n goeie idee om by die bestemming uit te kom. Die beddegoed en handdoeke was skoon en netjies. Daar is voldoende eetgerei en die yskas is goed benut deur ons. Miskien net een voorstel: 'n groter en harige mat by die voordeur om te keer dat mense sand in trap in die huisie.

Revitalised my soul...

Absolutely breathtaking view from our bedroom window. It was like a breath of fresh air, away from the hustle of the city life. If you ever need to clear your mind, this is the ideal place. Everything was neat and tidy and ready for us. It takes one back to a different era. Our stay was to short, but next time it will definitely be for longer. Thank you to Minette that came to check-up on us.

Pragtige plaas en landskap en die Zebra huisie is goed uitgerus en baie gemaklik.

Heerlike naweekplekkie. Ideaal as jy wil wegbreek van die stad af.

Beautiful farm and landscape and the Zebra cottage is well equipped and very comfortable.

Great weekend spot. Ideal if you want to get away from the city.

Rustig, netjies en skoon, maar neem eie proviand.

Rustige omgewing met skape wat in die wingerde blêr en poue wat rondom die huis pronk. Gerieflike akkommodasie, eg plaaslik, maar netjies en skoon met als wat nodig is. Ten spyte van 'n foonoproep vooraf, was skoonmakers egter nog besig toe ons om 16:30 daar aankom en ons moes 'n rukkie buite wag. Ons is vooraf gesê dat daar hout is om mee te braai, maar met aankoms is ons meegedeel dat die diens gestaak is omdat "mense hulle motors vol hout pak en dan wegry". Die akkommodasie is egter nie te ver van Lambertsbaai nie en hout kan daar bekom word, mits mens nie na sluitingstyd daar aankom nie.

Peaceful, neat, and clean, but take your own provisions.

Peaceful area, sheep bleating in the vineyards and peacocks strutting around the house. Comfortable accommodation, rustic, but neat, and clean and equipped with everything you need. Despite phone call before we arrived cleaners were still busy at 16:30 when we arrived, so we had to wait a while. We were told braai wood would be provided, but when we arrived we were told this isn't done anymore because people load their cars full of wood and leave. But the accommodation isn't far from Lambertsbaai so you can buy wood there, provided you show up before closing time.

Goeie dag Myra
Ek is baie jammer dat ons nog besig was om skoon te maak toe julle daar aangekom het, soos ek aan julle verduidelik het, het ons gesukkel om die gaste voor julle in die eenheid uit te kry, hulle wou nie uit nie, en ons moes later die polisie bel om hulle uit te kry. In verband met die hout, jammer dat ons julle nie vroeër in kennis gestel het nie.
Ons hoop om julle weer in die toekoms te kan akkommodeer.

Heerlik! Vriendelike gasvrou!

Was baie gelukkig, mooi verblyf, baie skoon! Sou diens van kamers geniet het - meer toiletpapier en meer handdoeke! Sou waardeer het om deure te kon sluit.

Delicious! Friendly hostess!

Was very happy, nice stay, very clean! Would have enjoyed room service - more toilet paper and more towels! Would have appreciated being able to lock doors.

Skokkend!

Ongelukkig was Xamarin uiters skokkend! En het nie oorgeslaap nie aangesien dit totaal onaanvaarbaar was. Ek wag dat geld terugbetaal sal word soos deur Minette aangedui is. Die stort was geblok, ek het nodig gehad om onwelriekende gemors uit die drein te verwyder om watervloei te kry. Die toilet was seker 7 jaar laas skoongemaak en onwelriekend, die stukke het afgedop met gebruik. Volgens gebruik voorsien gastehuise 'n gesighanddoek sowel as badhanddoek, net badhanddoek ontvang. Die enigste toegang tot 'n tweede slaapkamer was deur die hoofslaapkamer, glad nie volgens regulasies nie, asook nêrens genoem nie. Ek is seker geen gas wil getjipte koffiebekers gebruik nie? Daar was alleenlik 2 stoele voorsien buite by braai? Foto’s kan op aanvraag voorsien word.

Shocking!

Unfortunately Xamarin was absolutely shocking! I did not sleep over as it was so unacceptable. I am waiting for money to be paid back like Minette told me. The shower was blocked and I had to remove foul-smelling garbage from the drain in order to get the water to flow. The toilet was probably cleaned 7 years ago en it was foul-smelling, the pieces broke off while being used. Guesthouses usually provide face towels as well as bath towels, only received bath towel. The only access to second bedroom was through the main bedroom, which wasn't mentioned and not according to regulations. I'm sure no guest wants to use chipped mugs? There were only 2 chairs provided outside by the braai? Photos can be provided on request.

Goeie dag Rochelle
Ons is jammer dit is hoe julle gevoel het daaroor. Ons is nie ongelukkig nie 'n gastehuis nie. As julle gaan lees op die beskrywing van die kamer, sou julle sien van die deurloop van die een kamer na die ander kamer. Ek het ook vir julle, toe ek die kwotasie gestuur het gesê die eenheid is nie geskik vir 4 volwassenes nie en dat dit vir 'n gesin is met 2 kinders. As julle net agter die muurtjie gekyk het sou julle die ander 2 stoele daar gesien het. Julle is die enigste gaste wat gekla het oor 'n onnet plek. Julle het al met arriveering besluit julle wil nie daar bly nie. In verband met kliënte diens, het ek vir julle ander akkommodasie gesoek en was bereid om julle geld terug te betaal.

Ek sal die plaas aanbeveel mits die eienaar sy plaas-veiligheid opskerp.

Daar was gebreke in die toilet wat ons onder die eienaar se aandag gebring het, maar niks daaraan gedoen het nie. Die afstandbeheer vir die televisie is gesteel, maar geen plan is gemaak om dit te vervang nie.

I will recommend the farm if the owner betters the security.

There were problems with the toilet which we brought to the owner's attention, but nothing was done about it. The remote for the TV was stolen, but nothing was done to replace it.

Goeie dag Hannes
Ek is vreeslik jammer dat julle so voel. Ek was meer as 2 keer by julle en julle het elke keer gesê julle is gelukkig.
Ek het gevra of ek iemand gou kan kry om die lekkasie by die toilet te kom reg maak, en julle het dit van die hand gewys. Ivm die TV afstandbeheer. Die gaste voor julle in die eenheid het dit gesteel en ek het groot oM verskoning gevra omdat daar geen remote was nie. Ek het 'n remote gaan soek en kon nie een kry in Lambertsbaai nie, en het toe 'n remote van die Kaap af laat kom.
Weereens jammer vir julle ongerief.
