“Lovely place”
+Absolutely beautiful views and a great location. Has absolutely everything you’d need!
−The doors bang loudly if there’s wind and the spotlight outside shines through the light coloured curtains, so it’s very bright.

“Great hidden gem in dullstrom, great relax getaway trip for fishing, braai, kids play, and fireplace”
+immdiate view of the dam, quiet, classic style, fireplace in main and lounge rooms, it is one of the best relaxed trip, a great hidden gen, well equipment house for everything
−some light need maintenance and bulb change, perhaps provide more coffee and some basic cooking ingredient like oil and salt paper. If can upgrade technology abit more, consider a smart TV and wireless hifi system

“Extremely disappointing stay - dirty, poorly maintained and unacceptable service”
+Location: close to the town centre.
−We specifically requested a 13:00 check-in, which was approved. We arrived at 13:20 after travelling all morning with our baby, only to find the cleaning staff still busy and were told to return at 14:00. We had to hang around town unnecessarily with a tired baby. When we returned after 14:00, the ladies were lounging around. The alarm instructions provided were incorrect and contradicted the instructions inside the house. We followed the instructions given to us, only for the extremely loud alarm to go off within about 10 minutes of activating it, waking our baby. We ended up sleeping without the alarm rather than risk it happening again. The bedroom toilet was broken and overflowed badly, despite us being told at check-in that it had been attended to. The domestic worker was extremely unhelpful. We repeatedly asked her to clean the kitchen, bathroom and mess from the leaking toilet, yet she spent much of her time sitting on her phone. My wife eventually washed the dirty dishes herself. I also had to ask twice for the braai to be cleaned, which was eventually done with obvious irritation. The soaked carpet from the overflowing toilet was simply left crumpled up in the room. The ho

“Living life in Dullstroom”
+The location is very good. Being inside the estate made it quiet and private. The fishermen loved the easy access to the dam. The house is spacious and has most of the amenities one needs in a self catering unit.
−Cable theft and power outages are a big problem in South Africa. The house needs more rechargeable bulbs, and it would be great if the electrical stove hob was replaced with a gas hob

“Spacious and well equipped, pet friendly cottage with beautiful views”
+Location, so peaceful & tranquil while not being far from the village at all.
−We used the two sharing rooms off the kitchen and not the master bedrooms. The towels were well worn, and the shower heads are very basic.

“Beautiful scenic stay in lovely, artistic, well thought out house- worth revisiting”
+The location was excellent. It was in a beautiful setting overlooking Dullstroom Dam and a mountain. We really enjoyed sitting outside by the dam in the early morning and late afternoon. The accommodation is also close to 3 lovely hiking or walking venues eg Hghland trout and golf estate, Uitvlught ponds and Walkersons.(10-17km) . Walkersons also has a lovely terrace restaurant for delicious lunches & breakfasts plus Highland trout and golf estate has a scenic restaurant. The accommodation is very close to Dullstroom town to visit the quaint shops and restaurants there We loved the comfortable accommodation , the artistic Victorian decor and the beautiful furnishings. We really enjoyed our stay there and will return.
−An umbrella for the patio is a good idea especially when the sun is hot .The maid needs some supervision.

“While houses around weren't filled, it was quiet and peaceful.”
−The fact that it didn't seem clean and in need of maintenance.
