We stayed here for 12 days over two visits and would have cancelled the 2nd stay if possible. The space is nice and the hosts friendly, but there are things not mentioned in the listing that visitors should be aware of so they can make an informed decision.
There were between 2&5 loud barking, begging and asthmatic breathing dogs. We had to keep our door or gate closed to keep them out of our room.
The main entry gate is right next to the bedroom window with lots of traffic in and out. So between the dogs barking and the gate, there’s no chance of a morning lie in or afternoon nap.
The WiFi is available but so weak we could only open email 40% of the time and rarely managed to get FB/ insta to load.
There is another rental space on the property, so if they request a net on the pool you have to ask for it be removed every time you want a swim (awkward).
The lovely comfy couch and Weber shown in the outside pictures are not there. Instead there’s a hard two plank bench and old braai which we didn’t even get the second time. No real place to sit outside comfortably and read a book or enjoy the garden.
The bathroom door sticks and is hard to close and harder to open.
There is severe mould under the whole kitchen cabinet and the smell was overwhelming. When I showed it to the host, she could neither see it nor smell it which is astonishing as we could smell it with the cupboard closed.
After that I didn’t think anything else would be worth mentioning as I didn’t see a willingness to accept there might be issues.
All in all, not a win for us. Might work if you use it to just sleep at night, but if you want to relax at home during the day it’s hard.
