The place is exactly like the pics....clean and spaciousShleb was having to share the bathroom and waiting a while for the brekkieOther than that ... it's a beautiful place...as is the view of the lakeThey had friendly staff...

What a beautiful house and view, really enjoyed my stay. Breakfast was amazing and the hosts are very friendly, will definitely bring my friends for a weekend away next time.

The location is great with very beautiful view. However we were very disappointed with the room, because the sheets were dirty, bathroom outdated, they don't give clean towels everyday and toilet paper got finished but they didn't replace it. There is no privacy, limited parking space and breakfast was poor. Definitely wouldn't recommend it especially for the amount we payed.

Loved the place, view and breakfast. It is peaceful and the rooms are big and clean. The sitting area by the dam is amazing, the facilities offers braaing area with assistance from the host. It is perfect for family, friends and couple get away.

This was by far the most awkward experience I've had with regards to accommodation.I'll start with the pros..The house beautiful and it's very clean. The ladies who come in to clean and make breakfast are very friendly. At no point did we have breakfast as we had activities planned.And now the cons:It's a commune-like setting. So you actually pay for a room in the house and not the entire house. Anyone can book a room so you find yourself sharing the space with strangers who've also booked a room.There is very limited access to the common rooms as the host/owner and his wife live there. They're always in the lounge, the music is theirs, TV is theirs and they basically own the living area and kitchen. So essentially, you're either supposed to stay cooped up in your room or sit outside, otherwise leave the house. The owners are always hovering around, there's no sense of privacy or freedom to just be... It's almost as if they're there to ensure that you behave... We're not school kids.The welcome was very cold, especially from the lady who lives there, she's not very friendly or tolerable of any of the guests, you could tell just how annoyed she was with our presence and this made us all very uncomfortable. On the day we arrived she took the TV remote with her to their bedroom, she allocated 4 plates and 4 glasses to us, when my friend was looking for a champagne glass in one of the cupboards she rudely asked her what she wants and proceeded to show her a wine glass. The cupboards and shelves are filled with their groceries and day to day essentials so anything you can't take to your room stays on the kitchen floor or counter. It was all just so hostile and unnecessary.The bar fridges in the bedrooms are small, some things just don't fit in there, so we made use of one of the fridges in the kitchen, this again caused some type of tension, we got to a point where we had to ask what was off limits because it was really awkward and uncomfortable. The rooms have TVs and bar fridges but who on earth goes away only to stay locked up in their hot rooms? It's unreasonable and ridiculous to say the least. It felt like we were intruding.I honestly would never ever go here again. There is no reason to book this place. It's just weird, awkward, uncomfortable and the owners' hostility towards the guests is just shocking. Why they opted to rent this this out to the public when they cannot stand people in their space, is beyond me.

Really lovely place, great view and great breakfast. Rooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. We also loved that we could braai on the premises, one of the nicer places in harties.

Not the most convenient place unless you get the ensuite bedrooms. No balconies from rooms and no privacy.The view is very beautiful. Perfect for intimate bookings. They don't have the best parking space as well. Their wifi speed is great.

It was greatThe hosts are so welcoming and went out their way to make us feel comfortable hence we enjoyed our stay and the room was perfect and comfortable as well
