Vriendelik ontvang, behulpsaam, basiese geriewe, maar skoon, netjies en baie billik.
Gaste wat laatnag ingeklok het het erg geraas. Baie lekker plekkie vir oorslaap, sal aanbeveel. Vriendelik en hulpvaardig.
Vriendelikste mense by die gastehuis. Het heerlik geslaap.
Karprobleme en hulle het vriendelik gehelp.
Ons het die verblyf aangenaam ervaar en die gasvrou was baie behulpsaam.
Good stay, place clean and tidy. Conveniently located in Cradock.
Verblyf is sentraal in die dorp geleë, loopafstand vanaf die winkels. Die omgewing en woonbuurt is baie rustig. Sal dit vir familie en vriende aanbeveel.
Ek sal bevooroordeeld wees aangesien ek oorspronklik van Cradock is. Verblyf was aangenaam, maar nie regtig wat ek verwag het nie, maar vir die prys was dit redelik.
Ongelukkig is kamer in agterplaas. Dit is egter heel rustig.
Please ignore the majority of pictures on the website. They are not of Fish River Cottages. There are wide open spaces to walk but they are NOT on the property as some photos would indicate. Rooms are small, but clean and everything works just fine. Hosts are great. We will stay again next time we are in Cradock. Eat at Oasis Cafe. Great food. Cradock is a nice friendly little town and Fish River Cottages fits right in.
Ons was baie gerus want ons 2 Yorkies kon heerlik speel in omheinde area. Ons het lekker gebly en veilig gevoel.
Very well received and taken care of.
As bejaarde was die parkeerplek ver van die huisvesting en was dit moeilik om tasse, ens. heen en weer te dra. Die plek is goed toegerus, maar kom egter “moeg” voor. Die gebrek aan sitplek binnenshuis kan ongerief in ongure weersomstandighede veroorsaak. Hulpvaardigheid van eienaars vergoed vir gebreke.
Baie lekker gebly in Cradock.
Netjies. Baie skoon. Lekker privaat. Werkende lugversorger. Ideaal vir troeteldiere wat saam reis.
Ek kan definitief Fish River aanbeveel. De gasvryheid en netheid vir enige reisiger aanbeveel. Baie dankie.
Als was reg van die begin af. Dankie vir die veilige area waar ons honde kon rondloop en die gerieflike kamer met als wat ons nodig gehad het.
Ek kan Fish River Cottages aanbeveel as ‘n oornag verblyf. Dit sal baie geriefliker wees as die parkering nader aan die kamers is.
Vriendelike ontvangs, mooi eenheid, net jammer daar is nie ‘n afdak vir die motor nie. Ons het vroeg gery die oggend en dan is die voorruit toegewasem en nat.
Ek is net oor een iets spyt, en dis nie Fish River Cottages se skuld nie, ek het ongelukkig te laat in Cradock aangekom en kon toe nie die dorp verken nie, maar die verblyf was ongelooflik lekker en ek sal julle enige tyd aanbeveel.
Ek sal enige tyd weer terug gaan.
Teleurgesteld. Plek glad nie soos op foto’s nie.
Die advertensie lyk en beskryf beter as wat dit regtig is. Ons is paar maal die nag wakker geraas deur honde en papegaai. TV remote nie gewerk, een toilet en bedlampie stukkend.
Ons is baie hartlik ontvang en het gou tuis gevoel. Gasvrou was van groot hulp en lekker gerus na lang reis.
Vir 2 nagte bespreek. Moes bagasie en kruideniersware vêr dra. Motors nie veilig waar dit geparkeer word nie, omdat die muurtjie kniehoogte is met bosse wat dit van die straat skei. Geen tafeltjie om by te eet. Slegs een lendelam stoel, moes dit laat vervang. Maar 3 beddens! Moes vra om gloeilampe te vervang. Kombuis se lig het nie te alle tye gewerk nie. Moes flitslig gebruik in die donker kombuishoekie. Verwarmer en lugversorging het nie gewerk nie. Moes vra om ten minste die verwarmer te vervang na die koue eerste nag. Komberse dra tekens van vorige maaltye daarop genuttig. Beddegoed al deurgewas, maar darem skoon. Kombuis gereedskap yl. Slegs 3 koeldrankglase, moes dit was voor gebruik. Onbruikbare pan en kastrol met een handvatsel. Moes vra vir bruikbare pan om ontbyt te maak. Spasie tussen stofie en bo-kas baie beperk wat beteken jy kan nie eens ‘n eier omdraai sonder om die pan van die stofie te verwyder nie. Vir die eerste aand kon ons die mikrogolf inspan om kos op te warm, maar moes die tweede aand gaan uiteet omdat ons nie kon kos maak nie. Cradock het nie veel restaurante wat weeksaande oop is nie en ons was genoodsaak om in die hotel te gaan eet teen dieselfde koste as een nag se verblyf. Ons het by vertrek gekla by die bestuurder wat toe aangedui het dat hulle die plekkies gaan opgradeer in Julie 2017!
Die kamer is in die agterplaas bietjie ver van die motor af om die bagasie te dra. Die oornagverblyf was goed en die woonstel was skoon en netjies maar karig voorsien.
Ons het op die nippertjie verblyf nodig gehad op Oukersaand in Cradock omdat ons reisplanne verander het, en was baie dankbaar dat Fish River Cottages ons nog kon akkommodeer. Dit was die perfekte oorstop vir ons, gerieflik geleë in die dorp en na aan groot paaie uit die dorp. Baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.
Eenheid het na rook geruik met ons aankoms, neem aan dis as gevolg van die braai-area wat te naby aan eenheid is.
Goeie diens, lekker braaiplek en veilige, skoon kamers.
Baie lekker stil en eenkant van die huis sodat ons lekker en ongestoord kon vleisbraai.
Parkering vir voertuie kan nader aan die wooneenheid wees. Behalwe vir die “buurman” wat 01:15 in ‘n hewige selfoon geveg was met sy geliefde was die verblyf aangenaam, netjies en skoon.
This unit is only suitable for overnight stay for two people as space and facilities are inadequate for a longer self-catering stay.
Ons het om 21:30 aangekom, was vriendelik ontvang en na eenheid geneem. Die eenheid was skoon en netjies, goed toegeruste kombuis met braaigeriewe buite en netjiese tuin. Het om 06:00 weer vertrek, kan dit slegs beoordeel op grond van ons baie kort verblyf. Vir een nag se slaap was dit meer as voldoende en het aan ons behoeftes voldoen. Kan dit aanbeveel.
Gerieflik en “koel” – spesifiek met verwysing na die verligting na ‘n warm dag op pad (veral omdat daar lugversorging is).
Dit was perfek vir ons doeleindes, naamlik oornagverblyf.
Daar was geen ontvangs nie, ons moes sukkel om in te kom. Die plekkie lyk mooi van buite met ‘n mooi grasperk wat goed versorg is. Die stortdeur is stukkend en val af en die stort se mure is swart gemuf. Die blindings voor die vensters is in ‘n chaotiese toestand.
Lekker geslaap na ‘n volle dag se reis per motor!
Goeie oornagakkommodasie. Goeie waarde vir geld.
It was a basic but comfortable night stay over. The owner was very friendly and helpful.
Werklik uitstekende waarde vir geld. Baie vriendelike gasvrou met veilige parkering en baie goed toegeruste verblyf. Sal weer daar oornag.
Ons het een nag hier oorgeslaap. Die eenheid het baie lank laas ‘n stoflap gesien. Spinnerakke teen die dak en hoeke. Die eetgerei is alles oud, verslete en onpare, lyk soos uitgooi-oorblygoed wat iewers op ‘n vendusie gekoop is.
Clean well maintained accommodation. The only problem I encountered was finding Fish River Cottages after having arrived in Cradock after dark. I had a map obtained from the Internet with me, but the street names written on the curb stones are extremely difficult to read, especially after dark. I had to ask someone from a shop at a filling station in one of the main streets to help me find the cottages. A more visible sign at the venue would have been a great help, as the existing one is partly hidden by trees on the pavement.
The room is advertised for two. The extra bed crowded the room and we had to request chairs. Very friendly, but not to standard for the price.
Agterin iemand se tuin. Nie skoon nie.
Dit was gemaklik en alles wat mens nodig het. Ons het op ‘n verskriklike warm dag aangekom, en die lugversorging in die kamers was ‘n fees. ie kamers was netjies. Enigste kritiek is dat die badkamer dalk ‘n bietjie skoner kon wees, maar verder baie lekker, en sal dit weer oorweeg vir ‘n oornag. Baie dankie.
Heerlike slaapplekkie en badkamergeriewe.
Baie beslis goeie geld vir uitstekende, skoon verblyf. Sal dit aanbeveel.
Waarde vir geld vir een aand se oornag. Sal nie sommer daar vir langer tyd bly nie.
Kan aanbeveel. Hulpvaardige diens en goeie ligging.
Coming from the city and being welcomed warmly by the owner. She was so trusting and went out of way to make sure we were ok. We had a funny episode with a visitor spider, but it was so much fun. Both husband and wife came to our rescue. We had a good laugh. I can’t complain about anything. Really a lovely stay and definitely returning.
Die mense is aangenaam, die plek is stil, rustig en perfek geleë … sien julle volgende jaar weer!
Fish River Cottages are conveniently situated close to the business centre. The cottages have got all you need for an overnight at a very reasonable price.
Hierdie is ‘n pragtige plekkie met ‘n baie vriendelike gasvrou.
Accommodation was adequate for a one night stop over – which was all that we wanted. Thank you.
Sal nie lank wil oorbly nie. Die TV-kanale is swak. Verder is dit ‘n baie lekker plek.
Will stay at Fish River Cottages Cradock again if we ever return to Cradock.
Ons is bly vir LekkeSlaap; anders sou ons nie eens geweet het van die plekkie nie.
The accommodation consists of two separate units. Unit 1 had all the facilities available including the remote for the television and a kettle in working order. We found out from the other party staying in unit 2 that they had a broken kettle, no remote for the telelvision and the bedding smelt like cigarette smoke. Attention should be given to these mentioned areas to make a future stay pleasant for all parties.
Quite expensive for what you get. My main issues were that the pots were not properly cleaned with the result being that I couldn’t use them, also, only bath towels were supplied. I would have preferred a hand towel as well.
Good value for money and good braai facilities.
We enjoyed our stay and you will too!
Enjoyed a lovely setting and the excellent service, but found that luggage had to be carried a long way from the parking lot to the room.
The stay was pleasant and the people friendly. It would help if there was a post box to leave the keys for early leavers as the remote for the gate is attached to the flat keys so one gets your car out them climb over the front wall to return the keys and remote to the flat. We appreciated the air conditioning in the flat on a hot night. Good value for money. Only other problem was that we battled to find the place as Cradock’s streets are poorly marked and the accommodation is not prominently signposted.
Uitmuntende verblyf teen ‘n goeie prys. Dankie, dit was die moeite werd na ‘n lang reis. Dit was ‘n ware lafenis gewees.
Kamer het voldoen aan standaarde.
Die kothuis self is baie netjies en skoon. Ons het lekker gebly, maar daar kan gewerk word aan beter kliëntediens.
Rustig, vriendelik en veilig.
Daar is geen kaartgeriewe nie. Dit kan ‘n probleem skep as dit nie vooraf bekend gemaak is nie.
Het nie heeltemal aan ons verwagtings voldoen nie …
I booked room 3 and flat 1 – but was given rooms in the house on arrival. Beds were only made up with sheets. I also had to listen to owners fight during night which to me seems like bad management.
From start to finish, awesome service. Changing our arrival time more than once, was no problem for them. Getting directions for a place for dinner, was met with a smile. Clean room. Fresh coffee, tea and milk in the room on arrival. A fantastic place with great hosts.
Gasvry. Aan te beveel.
Dit is n baie oulike oornagplekkie, wat beslis kan doen met lugverkoeling in die kamer. Daar is wel ‘n dakwaaier, maar in 37ºC was dit ongemaklik warm.
Die gasheer kon so bietjie meer inligting oor die omgewing aan gaste deurgegee het.
Die gasvrou was baie vriendelik en tegemoetkomend. As ‘n oornag slaapplek, is dit goeie waarde vir geld.
‘n Ideale plek om te oornag wanneer jy op reis is.
Yes, a great place.
Dit was goed.
Dit is ‘n baie lekker kamer gewees en als het mooi gewerk en daar het niks geskort nie. Regtig waarde vir geld!
Dit was baie lekker en “cosy”.
Die drywer wat van hierdie plek gerbuik gemaak het, beweer hy is vriendelik ontvang en dat hy welkom gevoel het. Baie dankie!
Dit was regtig baie mooi en skoon en het alles gehad wat ons nodig kon kry! Baie gasvry!
Die personeel was vriedelik en professioneel.
Alles was mooi skoon en netjies en die toerusting meer as voldoende. Sal beslis weer daarvan gebruik maak sou ek weer in daardie omgewing kom.
‘n Plekkie wat ek enige tyd vir vriende en familie sal aanbeveel.
Perfect accommodation at a very competitive price, in a quiet area with the opportunity to braai if you want. Very clean.
The stay was fine, good location.
Will stay there again if passing that way. However the blinds need some attention.
Prima huisje rustig gelegen eigenaar heel aardig maakt een praatje met alle gastenncradoch prima ligging ten opzichte van zebra np.
Ideal for a stop over (one overnight stay). Would not really recommend for people to stay for a few nights, as this establishment is in the back yard of the owner’s house – also, it needs an air conditioner.
Die huisies is in n stil en skoon omgewing. Die huisie self was goed ingerig vir die doel waarvoor dit verhuur word. Ek was baie in my skik en sal dit beslis kan aanbeveel
Thank you for your hospitality and the recommendations of where to eat. Definitely recommend Fish River Cottages Cradock for a stopover or as a place to stay for a few days.
A path over the lawn would be nice….it was a very wet weekend and we walked all the mud/grass etc into the cottage every time. The one window requires weather proofing. Aside from this, excellent value and Loggie was attentive to a few other small niggles.
Wonderful value for money and great customer service.
Would recommend a doorbell be added at your driveway, as we had to climb over the wall to find the bell for the house. Otherwise we had a great stay!!!
Clean and nice. However: Parking too far from cottage, which makes it difficult for older folk to carry baggage through.
Lekker gekuier, ons kom weer.
Kitchen area is a bit small and very basic, towels not very fresh but useable … probably needs a little more of a woman’s touch, maybe well suited to travelling representatives / single travelers!!
Everything we needed was there, and we will use them again.
Daar was n misverstand oor die plek waar ons moet in, want ek het die plek op die foto van die internet bespreek en toe ons moet in, is dit in n kamer binne in die huis. Loggie het dit gou opgelos. Dankie Celeste
The chalet was very clean and well appointed. The host was helpful and made us feel very welcome. I would definitely stay there again. Only drawback was the night we stayed it was very very hot and the ceiling fan didn’t do much but we slept well regardless.
