Firefinch Country Cottage

Laat dit buite die dorp is. My kinders het die diere baie geniet. Mens het jou eie spasie.

n bietjie maintance kan gedoen word. En nog n waaier vir die ander kamer is welkom.

1.Very close to Bill Harrop's hot air balloons 2. It was a decent place, kitchen was lovely 3. Place was clean 4. Had a lot of space

1.Difficult driving to the place after it rained. 2. Hard to mix water in the shower, when the temperature reaches hot it doesn't mix well with cold water, it stays hot a long while then becomes all cold. 3. Flies, luckily there was Doom spray. 4. No aircon, but fan was provided 5. No TV

The place offered a beautiful view, which made it perfect for taking memorable pictures. It was also well-equipped with utensils, so we didn’t face any challenges when preparing food. Everything we needed was readily available

While the property had potential, our experience was disappointing due to several issues. There were far too many flies, and despite our efforts to clean, the host did not take responsibility for removing the outside bin, which was overflowing and attracted even more flies. The pool area was smelly and dirty, and we had to request cleaning before we could use it. Additionally, the pool itself was much too small for a property of this size, which made it feel inadequate for guests.

The place is exactly as advertised, the hosts were very friendly and professional and their staff member, Xolani was extremely helpful. They were able to ensure our stay is as comfortable as possible. I loved it! The mountain views and watching the hot air balloons take off are things I miss already.

This is a great property that is near enough to town (Johannesburg) to be a quick and easy getaway but far enough a way to feel like a holiday. The kids LOVED the farmyard neighbours and watching hot air balloons launch! The small pool is cool and clean and has a good, shady spot to watch kids play. The unit itself is a very comfortable farm-style cottage, right next to ostriches and sheep and geese and chickens (which the kids loved feeding). Comfortable inside and on the veranda, enjoying a braai. Definitely a budget-friendly family visit.

There were some maintenance niggles (plumbing issues) which have been detailed separately and the owners have promised to look at. And it could do with a couple of additional hooks and rails and shelves. But otherwise comfortable.
