Guest Reviews

• G (1/5): Never using this platform again. - Could not get in did not stay as numbers given no one answers to get into the gate. Will not use this platform again as I canceled and requested a refund has not seen the money to date. No one to answer a telle phone and non refund to date.. you really expect people to sit in a remote area infront of a gate with no way to get to your premises. Will not recommend this platform to any one. No never again poor service even before you get there.
• Jessica (3/5): - The view was beautiful. When we arrived at the gate we called the number and when someone answered they put the phone down. When you called again he started speaking a language we could not understand and then he hung up. We waited for 15 minutes at the gate. When I got out of the car I noticed the gate was manual, when I opened the gate it shocked me and when I closed the gate it shocked me. When we arrived at the accommodation there was no one there and everything was locked. We waited there for 10 minutes and no one came. I then drove to the house where I saw cars parked I knocked on the door and a woman answered and she said she will call someone to come and assist us, after waiting a while she came out of the house and she took us to the accommodation, then you could see more people running towards us to come and check us in. It was clear that they did not know we booked the accommodation. In the room the light was flickering, we had to remove the bulb. When you went into the bathroom room the roof was leaking over the toilet. There was only one roll of toilet paper and it was wet because of the roof leaking. There was also no hot water. The accommodation has a gas stove and oven, but the stove and oven does not have an igniter button and no matches and no lighters were provided. There were also bugs in the bed under the duvet.
• Debra (8/5): Peaceful. Tranquil - Just beautiful. Peaceful. Perfect get away for a few days
• Israel (3/5): - Area Dust on the bedding and the long wait at the gate no water to drink in the rooms
• Louis Vee (5/5): - The bedding was comfortable There was not shower gel, instead there was handwasher to shower with...
• Corneelia (9/5): A little breather from the city - The freshness of the area...
• Buys (1/5): Bartons folley review - Nothing because we never got to stay there They double booked our room and we had to find other accommodation upon arival. They wanted us to live in one of the workers houses.
• Vonani (1/5): It was bad, I did not stay I checked out same day - The views There was no hot water, there were rats in the house I was supposed to sleep in, I left the same night I checked in. There is also no wifi
• Line (1/5): We ended up booking a nothing place to stay for the night, I was nog going to sleep in that bed.. - Nothing When we wanted to check in, they did not even know people were coming to stay there… Bed was soooo dirty, the staff was unpleasant, the bathroom wasn’t clean..
• Karisma Singh (7/5): - The views, the location and the simplicity. Lovely people working there, exceptional views , peaceful and serene. The facilities need more maintenance, more developments, pool wasn't working, not too high standards as it has the potential to be. Could be so much better with more investment.
• Kathleen (10/5): Exceptional - The place is amazing
• Greg (10/5): Exceptional - The site was beautiful the staff was helpful also directed us and took us on a hike to the waterfalls and river
• Tasneem (2/5): Definitely would not stay here again or recommend! - The only good that about the property is the location and views Upon arrival we couldn’t enter the passcode as the machine was broken, we tried calling every contact number provided but none of them worked we had to wait for 20 minutes before we could even access the room. The staff were not aware of our booking and we had to wait again for them to change bedding and clean the room after we had arrived. The room itself had a funny odour to it and the kitchen cupboards were broken. Everything from the kitchen to the bathroom was extremely dirty. The water pressure was low throughout our stay with no hot water. And the thatch roof had holes in them.
• Bernadine (1/5): Bad -
• Kholeka (7/5): Beautiful location, lovely host, place needs some care and the pool should be fixed. Overall, a good stay. - I loved the location, right next to the mountain and river. The cottage is well decorated, all the small conveniences supplied: fridge, microwave (at a request) and candles👍🏾. The staff were really helpful, friendly and accommodating. The host was available on WhatsApp to answer any questions or requests. There’s a trail up the mountain and to some type of gorge which I absolutely loved. The main house on the grounds had lots of potential if renovations are made. The busy road did not bother me until Sunday morning when there’s lots of traffic. The grounds need some renovations, especially the pool area which I could not use🙁. The kids play area also need revamping. The gas stove in the cottage seemed to be leaking gas but was fixed. The bathroom and cupboards needed more cleaning.
• Chelesile (10/5): Had an awesome stay - The monument and the dam Nothing
