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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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.

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.

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.

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.
