• Akhona (8/5): - Room was clean, with a shower Breakfast was good and the staff accommodated an earlier breakfast time request. The place is quiet, great to get away from the busy city atmosphere The road to the property is gravel for about 3km. It was not mentioned in confirmation of booking. When it has been raining, the mud and uneven road negatively affects a small vehicle from driving in and out. There were small flies in the room day and night. No air-conditioning available in the room., just a fan
• Michael (10/5): - The quietness of the place and very friendly staff. All was well.
• Patience (10/5): - The place is so clean and quiet, even the staff 🫶 The fact that we have to call them to open the gate
• Pinky (10/5): I recommend this place - bird sounds and the place is peaceful none
• Kwena (7/5): - The environment is quite and clean, fresh air The bed was making too much noise. Need attention
• Hector (10/5): - Maintenance of the bed. It makes sounds during intercourses Some areas of the inside had animal smell
• Thandokuhle (5/5): Great - The pool only Flies all over the place
• Victoria (10/5): Great place, well looked after with friendly and very attentive team - The place is well looked after by a team of people who care about the place and the people staying there.

• Kerry (5/5): Bad experience. - Location was perfect for our purpose, thank you Despite letting them know our time of arrival, the room wasn't ready. No one to help carry our luggage. The fridge was unplugged, so warm. No ice. Only one towel. The bathroom floor mats were crunched up. The toilet seat was stained brown. Breakfast was well cooked but cutlery was filthy as were the glasses. The patio was used by a party and was not cleared. Once cleared the floor remained littered. The pool was going very green. The photos don't represent the establishment at all. Won't stay here again.
• Casey (10/5): -
• MONT (5/5): -
• Letlatsa (9/5): - The room and surroundings Promised breakfast at a certain time, but didn't get one and had to keafe without taking it
• Shawn (7/5): -
• maabane (10/5): - Well kept and maintained. Clean. Peaceful, beautiful The road that leads to the local is gravel. Not ideal for a small car
• Nozipho (10/5): The staff were very welcoming and friendly - Excellent Nothing
• Ngema (10/5): -
• Nana (8/5): -
• Mcguire (5/5): Stay at Owls Croft - Nice area, room size was good, quiet and peaceful Outside light not working, bath leaking (we started a bath and it leaked water all over the floor...we were on hands and knees mopping up) and no key for the safe (we needed a safe as we were attending a function and could not carry our firearm).
• Gilbert (8/5): Very good - Peaceful. Spacious Need maintenance
• Poole (6/5): Pleasant - The quiet area The rooms are not soundproof or at least some sound dampening. We could not sleep due to the other guests talking in their room. No quality checks on the state of things. My eyes saw them ... our water in the fridge was frozen, the rest of the things that we put in the fridge also froze. The breakfast sausages were horrible... cheap "cold meat sausage". The second day of us being there, other customers asked if there were more yogurt, ... they said there were no more. They were German customers.. I thought this was just bad. I gave my yogurt to them. The description on the booking app and the room we were given did not match. There are quite a few bulbs that needs to be replaced, and painting is hanging scew... from the dining area to the room.
• Sandy (8/5): Very good -
• Marina (7/5): Pleasant and enjoyable - I liked the location - in a sprawling garden with lots of trees, birds and flowering plants. The food was overpriced and nothing special.
• Tarryn (10/5): Exceptional - What a beautiful place. The staff were very accommodating, so helpful, very friendly. I would recommend Owls Loft Guest House to anyone needing to stay in the area.
• Sabuti (8/5): Very good - The facility is very beautiful 😍 Nothing
• Jéan-patrick (9/5): Through the rain - The space and quality of the rooms and service from the staff was excellent. The noise/sounds of foots steps from the above room was loud and distinct. Not sure if it was because the people were purposely doing it or if the flooring is not insulated well to stop the noise from coming down.
• Portia (5/5): Passable - Outside view False advertisement Rooms wasn’t the way I expected
• Allister (7/5): Good -
• Kile (5/5): More attention to be given to ensure that the room is fully ready to accommodate guests - The gardens Shower gel was not filled up and had to use the hand wash gel to shower

• Nonhlanhla (4/5): Should be a 2 star not 4 - The landscape was beautiful and the pool. The staff was always willing to assist. Our first room that they offered us was terrible and didn’t smell nice but the staff offered us another better room. No breakfast variety options.Also the room that we booked was supposed to have a microwave and coffee machine which wasn’t the case. Seemed they were operating on low budget to be quite honest. Most of the comments under this property are either old or bogus because they not a true reflection of the place.
• Mpumi (9/5): It was very good experience - I didn't eat there There was a group of guests who were making noise with their car radio 📻
• Bosslady_za (5/5): Passable -
• Caroline (4/5): Overall it was okay, but the place is infested with flies worse the kitchen - Stuff friendly Flies, everywhere are flies, the place is badly infested
• Mmanoko (10/5): My family, both the young and the old, thoroughly enjoyed their stay - The place was clean and beautiful. Breakfast was amazing and Sithabile was a woderful host. We were even allowed to cook our own Christmas dinner. Some additional attention needs to be placed on controlling flies because of the stables nearby, but we honestly had such an amazing stay that we forgot about them
