Beds were clean, the shower was properly functional. I would however warn people with large cars that entry into the secure parking through the narrow gate is a challenge.
At short notice you were willing to help. Very neat and slept well.
Very nice stay at Boer and Brit. Will definitely stay there again.
We had a great stay, it's very neat, clean and beautiful. Our car was parked in a very safe place. Two things that I would like to bring to the owner's attention are: there is no place to put your cup of coffee and plate of biscuits (table). The loose carpet in the room with two single beds is a slip hazard.
Spacious, clean and tidy house. We could just relax and grill a nice Karoo lamb. Everything we needed was there.
Value for money with everything needed to make the stay comfortable.
Beautiful house, clean and has everything you need. Love the fact that the heritage of the area is kept. Lovely hostess, easy to access the property, really loved our stay.
Love Boer & Brit! They have everything you need. Would definitely stay there again! Great assistance and response from the owner! Safe parking, stress-free and well organised!
This is a gem in Graaff-Reinet! We really enjoyed it, the room is beautiful and very friendly hostess!
Very neat, clean, nicely furnished. Also very safe. I overslept the morning I had to leave and the hostess was very accommodating! Great appreciation.
Very spacious, neat and secure unit. We really enjoyed our two nights. Would stay there again anytime.
The place was very pleasant, neat, beautiful and peaceful.
Very neat and quiet. Slept well.
We really enjoyed our time there.
Als was very calm and quiet.
My second visit to Boer and Brit, I mentioned this in my previous visit to Boer and Brit and I will mention it again "You have a beautiful place and you are doing well. Will book again with Boer and Brit anytime.
Very neat place with everything you need and within walking distance of restaurants and the beautiful church. Would have liked to stay a few days longer and not just overnight.
Thank you, neat, clean, spacious.
It's the 3rd time we've spent the night here. It's our favorite place in Graaff-Reinet.
House was warm & beds comfortable. Just missing WiFi.
Everything was nice & the house was warm, beds were comfy. Just wifi missing.
Beautiful cottage, great value for money, close to amenities. Only the most minor of niggles - low doorways (typical of Victorian buildings but a surprise to our 6'6" member), and highly polished parquet floors which can catch you by surprise if you're in your socks!
Wonderful spacious Karoo house. Very nice stay. Karoo town experience.
Heidi, our hostess, was an angel. She immediately offered help when we had a personal dilemma. The places were very clean and tidy and we will definitely stay there again. Thank you Heidi for helping without hesitation. You are truly the best!
It was exactly what I was looking for.
It was incredibly hot! There is air conditioning in 1 room, 6 of us slept there. I don't expect there to be air conditioning in every room, but a bottle of cold water in the fridge would help or even an ice tray with ice in the freezer would also help. I understand guests broke the ice tray years ago, but really! I left an empty glass bottle of water in the fridge. I hope they keep it for the next person who comes to stay there on a hot day. I will book there again, then I will bring an ice tray. The temperature of the hot water can also be somewhat less, this will definitely save power.
Large rooms, excellent shower and plenty of space to park vehicle securely.
Boer and Brit is a very interesting place to stay with a glimpse into the history of punching. Was pleasantly surprised. My husband ate deliciously from the guavas in the garden.
The historic buildings and small cosies made me think back to how it used to be with horses and carriages.
Very nice stay with everything we needed.
Nice stay. Calm and quiet.
Shower needs a decent cleaning and the spiders and cobwebs could be cleaned. The blankets don't smell like they've been washed either. Also not available on full DStv.
So beautiful, practical and comfortable!
Nice quiet place to sleep overnight.
The children stayed there and they found the stay very pleasant.
Our trip was absolutely perfect with the hospitality and kindness of the hostess. Thank you very much for everything.
It was so beautiful inside and out. The area was safe and quiet and everything was clean and tidy. Will definitely stay here again!
Friendly, helpful agent. Exceeds wildest expectations. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Boer en Brit is a pleasant overnight stay. The place is well equipped with secure parking.
Went for a drive around the nature reserve and spent one night there.
Very nice and comfortable. Rooms are spacious and were very tidy upon arrival. We received clear and detailed communication from host prior to arrival, including how to access the units, directions and even the possible load shedding schedule. Would definitely recommend and will visit again.
Will stay there again.
Very nice and neat.
Lovely characterful unit unique to Graaff-Reinet. Everything was clean, tidy and comfortable. We were able to check out an hour later which fit nicely into our schedule. Will definitely stay with Boer and Brit again.
I was impressed with how safe, neat and clean the place was. The aircons were definitely a plus. Thank you!
Very nice place, clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend it.
Cleanest, neatest place we've stayed in a long time and we travel often. Very peaceful environment.
No problem, everything was fine and tidy.
See stars.
Peaceful and safe accommodation. Value for money.
Spacious, clean and excellent service!
The unit has no Wi-Fi but offers DSTV packages for viewing. The unit seems to me to be part of a monument and the walls are terribly thick. This makes the unit very soundproof and you can hardly hear the hourly church bell. It was an unforgettable stay.
Really enjoyed our time at Boer and Brit. Spacious and clean. Definitely value for money. Would love to stay there again in the future when we are in Graaff-Reinet again. Many thanks to owners.
Was only an overnight destination but had plenty of space and secure parking.
Clean, tidy and spacious. Centrally located. Will definitely stay there again.
Nice stopover for traveling from north to south. Must tap into the town's rich history next time.
Forgot our meal planning for the rest of the week in the kitchen. We contacted and they sent it to us as soon as possible. Very cute. Had a great time, will sleep there again.
Definitely value for money and convenient. Would recommend for the money they ask.
Safe parking for my pram and car a plus.
Our second time at Boer and Brit. Great for an overnight or longer stay. All the facilities we needed. Not able to cook during load shedding but lamps were provided and it wasn't an issue. Comfortable beds. Safe parking behind a locked gate. Check-in was easy. Drinking water was also provided, which was a nice touch.
Clean and tidy accommodation with secure parking.
There is only a microwave, but no microwave bowls or pots and gas stove for cooking. We also had to sit on the bed to eat, because the kitchens are so small and have no table or chairs. There is also no DStv or WiFi and the WiFi makes it difficult for a traveler to work out your morning route.
Very cute place!
It's a cute little place, just feels a bit unsafe.
The host was very helpful and accommodated us when we needed to make changes to our stay. She was very informative about what there is in Graaff-Reinet.
Quiet and clean. Very helpful and friendly.
Place is well furnished and has all the amenities.
Many tourist attractions especially Reinet house and valley of desolation.
The unit is clean and tidy. Service is friendly and easy to work with. Parking inside yard, but entrance is a bit narrow for larger vehicles. Located between local community but no problem.
Would love to have an extra chair or couch in the living area.
Neat, clean and safe.
The accommodation is comfortable and the car is safely parked.
The beds are very comfortable and the WiFi is appreciated, as well as the secured parking space.
Building is old and there is room for improvement from back door. The wood was done and the glass panel of door fell out when the door was closed!
It is incredibly private and peaceful. We appreciated the silence.
See stars.
Immediately fell in love with the place. Clean friendly helpful. I would like to stay there if all my family were not in Gauteng. Was just disappointing that they write on the statues. Inquired with agent about places to eat but she never got back to me. Will definitely visit again.
Beautiful neat place. Everything is so beautiful and neat. Would definitely recommend it. Nice owners.
Heidi is the most helpful woman I have ever met at guesthouses. Everything was in place, neat, spotless and the rooms smelled like Heaven. The ladies who clean are so friendly and speak so nicely. I felt like I was on vacation. Thank you for your good service. I will always remember Graaff-Reinet as a loving, warm and receptive licorice thanks to the image you radiate.
Beautiful old house, the kitchen door is very low, but we understand it is not something that can be changed, my husband just has to remember to bend down.
We had a lovely visit to Boer and Brit. The unit was spotless and had everything we needed. The cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful. The owner, Heidi, welcomed us by WhatsApp giving all the details we needed to check-in on Sunday afternoon. I would recommend a stay here with full confidence.
Very quaint and happy with the secure parking. Forward thinking for loadshedding was such a bonus - thank you.
The unit was beautifully appointed for our family of 5, in a quiet part of town but within walking distance of the shops and restaurants. Will definitely stay here again.
Boer and Brit are very neat and clean, everything works as promised and we felt very much at home! Even loadshedding lightly in case of power outage.
Patchwork house as old people built. Lots of character. Stairs a bit difficult for the elderly and small door by kitchen problem for tall people. Beautifully made and everything nice and clean.
Cute little place. Will stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay, the house has loads of space, is tidy and the environment feels safe. Thank you Heidi.
Boer and Brit are very centrally located. We really enjoyed the place, everything we needed plus more was available and we really enjoyed our stay. Heidi, you have done wonders with the place. 10 out of 10 for you. Will check in there again if I visit Graaff-Reinet again.
Nice stay in Boer and Brit. Good rain received during first night. Was surprised to experience such a nice downpour in the Karoo.
See stars.
We stayed 2 nights and would appreciate if there is wifi. Help with further planning. Completely central.
Everything was exactly as we like it. Thank you very much Heidi for your extra effort.
It was a short stay, but very neat and clean. The information from the agent, even about the restaurants available and the load shedding schedule, was very helpful.
Nice, clean and tidy, just not loadshedding friendly.
Perfect for a sleepover. Nice and spacious units with secure, lock-up parking behind the building.
Very nice stay, just sorry about the loadshedding, because the toilet didn't want to work properly, didn't take in water and couldn't shower. Aircon's remote batteries flat, otherwise very nice place and neat and clean. Thank you.
For the amount of R650 per unit, it was sufficient for us for the 1 night's overnight stay. Nothing fancy, but clean bed linen and towels are always the most important to me! And everything was clean and tidy! Thank you! A few tips for the future of Boer and Brit and to attract more guests: 1. The unit 2A unfortunately smelled of smoke. Maybe the previous guests ignored the no-smoking rules? 2. Soap in the shower would have been "nice". We didn't take soap with us and just showered with the sink's "liquid aoap". 3. There was no plug for the sink. Inconvenient for face washing etc. 4. Only 2 Ricoffy bags and 1 tea bag were available at the kettle. No "sweetener" for diabetics. So you have to choose whether you drink 1 cup of coffee the night before you go to bed or maybe the next morning? Had I known this in advance, I would have brought my own coffee and sweetener. (Note to self - will remember next time). 5. No Wi-Fi, we also discovered this too late. These days, you just assume that all guest houses at least have WiFi. And we also hit loadshedding from 19:00 to 21:30, then the water pump does not work and therefore no water in taps and toilet. At least there had been a jug of water for the kettle. Remember to take a hot water bottle with you for load shedding times. At least it helps to have a flask of boiling water on hand. 6. There was one small rechargeable lamp for "loadshedding" and although it was plugged in and therefore charged it unfortunately did not work for long, then it was dark again. (Next time we will bring more lamps and flashlights with us!). Yeh!
It's a cute place and is very neat and clean and has everything you need to spend the night. We always welcome a fridge bigger than a bar fridge, so this was a lovely stop and met our needs. Arrangements also work very well and you are kept informed of your booking and of information regarding the place you booked.
We stayed only 1 night and it was sufficient for our family. Thank you.
Comfortable accommodation with everything you could possibly need. Location was very close to eateries and the town centre.
Safe parking, although small spaces do not always create a safe impression. Thank you for the clean drinking water in the kitchen. The place is really recommendable.
Spacious rooms, private area outside with braai.
We arrived on Good Friday. Probably not the best idea. Was like a ghost town. Only option for a meal was Spur. Accommodation was fine. Only complaint was termites.
I would recommend it - we will come again, this time with friends!
Boer and Brit was a definite experience after many hours on the road. Everything was very neat and clean, bedding crisp and the air conditioning in the master bedroom very welcome. Very secure parking under lock and key. Heidi had already made contact via WhatsApp in the early afternoon with the key code for the gates, so there was no problem with arrival. We had everything we needed for an overnight stay and would definitely book there again.
We had a great stay at Boer and Brit's. We felt safe and there was an awful lot of space for just the 2 of us. We made use of the braai facilities and had a great time sitting outside and chatting. We could sleep well without any noise. I would definitely recommend this place to stay for anyone looking to stay overnight in Graaff-Reinet.
We stayed and slept well, just need a table and chairs to sit and eat.
Very quaint and neat place to stay, will stay again. The carpet in front of main bedroom bed was very slippery even with an effort to not let it slip, otherwise pleasant.
We were greeted very kindly by Heidi, the owner. She went out of her way to accommodate us. The house is beautiful. Nicely furnished with all the necessary accessories. Aircon in the room and extra warm blankets as needed. My mother and I slept there. I would stay there again. Secure parking behind a locked gate is provided. One feels very safe.
Only problem, no stove - only a silly hotplate that either burns food or not. Very few pots, it can have 6 guests. So not enough pots to cook food with.
Lovely stay with nice clean, fresh bedding.
This is the second time we have stayed the night with Boer and Brit and it continues to be an experience. Als is perfect.
What an absolute gem of a place! Thanks Heidi for a beautiful, clean unit!
The secure parking is a bonus. I just want to mention the light on the porch outside flickers permanently.
Nice and quiet.
It's very central and quiet. We had a very nice stay.
Clean and good value for money.
The unit was very comfortable, very clean and tasteful. Furnished and has everything that made our stay enjoyable. Will definitely use it again in the future.
Everything we could need was there! Very nice stay! Beautiful place!
Boer and Brit unit 1 and 2A accommodation was such a nice overnight stop for us as a family of 6 adults. The places were very clean, everyone had a good night's rest. The air conditioning was a life saver on the 40 degree day. The place is very close to the restaurants in town. Would recommend the place to anyone. Good value for money.
We had a wonderful stay. Got a WhatsApp from the owner with info on where to get the keys. It's a big bunch of keys, but every key and lock is color coded which helps a lot. The location is perfect - quiet in the evening and close to restaurants.
Great value. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent service.
See stars.
Safe and clean. The shower may be a bit uncomfortable
It's a very convenient location with security precautions.
See stars.
We had a great time, thank you.
Comfortable safe place to stay overnight that meets one's basic needs. Well priced and suitable for one night's stopover en route to one's destination.
Spacious, clean accommodation with safe parking, pleasant decor and clean, fresh bedding. Could not have asked for more.
Warm clean, safe, quite and comfortable.
This accomodation was perfect for a one night stay en route. The key was left in a secure postbox. The two security gates however were very difficult to open and after travelling all day, one does not wish to struggle! We did however alert the owner to this. Other than that the accommodation was very simple and clean and all that one needs for a stopover.
Enough sleeping space to accommodate us all comfortably. Very clean and tidy and full of character.
Boer & Brit is a very cute restored house. Neat, clean and full of character. The safe parking made us sleep even better.
Boer and Brit is the perfect overnight stop. It is very centrally located in Graaff-Reinet and has more than enough for our needs. It also has secure parking which is always a plus. If I can make 2 suggestions - the TV channels are limited and we couldn't watch rugby on Saturday night. Then a little more coffee and tea would be appreciated, the 2 bags were a bit small.
Everything was so clean and beautiful when we got there. It was nice and quiet for rest. We felt very safe and the car was also safe. We really enjoyed it there. Thank you very much.
The unit is spacious and has everything needed for an overnight stay to visit the town. Private and safe.
It's an incredibly peaceful Karoo atmosphere. The rooms are tasteful and comfortable.
Friendly welcome, nice and spacious room and bathroom. The car was parked behind the unit and behind a locking gate, very secure.
We were very surprised by the cleanliness and the beautiful decor of the unit in which we stayed. Thank you very much, we had a great sleep.
It is really very nice accommodation. It was very clean everything is there with safe parking. Good service. Would definitely stay there again and recommend anytime.
Neat and clean. Bedside lamp unfortunately out of order. Otherwise very comfortable.
Comfortable stay with everything that we needed.
Got more than we expected.
My accommodation had lots of old world charm with a modern twist. I got a big room with a large bathroom and a nice little kitchenette where I could easily prepare a small meal. There is safe, lockable, off-street parking which is a necessity as this is in quite a busy part of the town. As the accommodation was so central, I easily found a restaurant within walking distance of the accommodation. The host had also thoughtfully provided everything I could need and clearly provided directions ahead of check in to access the building.
Good choice for overnight stay. Central and walking distance to the beautiful old church. Everything is well organized, even a pack of ice in the freezer. Just a bit difficult to get all the interior doors unlocked when you get there in the dark.
Boer and Brit is a very pleasant accommodation option.
Improvement is needed to keep the place even better.
I slept alone with Boer and Brit. It's a very neat and comfortable place to sleep. Also very comfortable for a family with everything needed. You get a whole bunch of keys to get in, but the keys and doors are well marked.
Feels a bit unsafe but is definitely value for money.
Neat and quiet. Very old buildings. Receiving keys very conveniently.
Bathroom needs some work.
Absolutely wonderful place.
The place is neglected. The bedding was very clean and tidy.
Ideal place to sleep, clean and aircon helped a lot. Clear directions to get key were given. Easy and convenient.
This was our 2nd visit to Boer and Brit. Unit very clean and tidy, bedding and towels smell nice and clean and fresh. Milk, tea and coffee are also a bonus, especially if you are only staying for 1 night. Would definitely recommend.
We were well surprised with how neat the unit was. The location was perfect for a quick walk through town and to the restaurants. Beautiful unit with all the amenities!
Had a short overnight stay, but the place was neat, surprisingly beautiful, and well equipped!
Nice clean and tidy accommodation. The shower does not have a door or a soap dish, nor a table to eat at in the living unit. Bar refrigerator's freezer section is hopelessly too small. Couldn't have frozen my "cooler bricks" for the next day's trip. We had a nice stay and can definitely recommend Boer and Brit.
The forest of keys makes it difficult to find the right key for each lock. A tip is to clearly mark each key with a name tag.
Nice clean and safe. Just took a while to get real keys for real doors.
Neat and clean. All that one needs.
Excellent reception and communication. Very positive experience.
The place had character, was centrally situated and the booking, key collection and deposit was effortless. As a stopover, it certainly added to the fun of our road trip. Many thanks.
Beautiful and affordable. Big, comfortable, clean and tidy. I can easily stay there for a week or more. It has braai facilities and everything. Close to the high street for shopping. Secure parking behind a locked gate.
The place was pretty clean but the TV was turned off and what you usually expect from this type of accommodation was not there. Clearly, the accommodation was nicely cleaned but there was no finishing touch. We didn't travel with coffee and tea etc and assumed there would be as it was always provided. We got there in the afternoon after a long drive. No tea for me and only 4 Ricoffy bags with 6 bags of sugar. One usually drinks 2 per cup. When I called that evening they explained to me that tea would only be provided the next morning at 8 o'clock. We drove 10 hours. No shower soap or shampoo but only a bottle that says conditioner. There was less than a quarter in the bottle. We took our own but again it was in short supply in the room. Suggestion is that management checks rooms before guests check in, so that everyone is satisfied.
The position of the accomadation is excellent. We might stay in unit 2B or the other unit no.1 I think. I won't book at 2A again. The kitchenette was really minimal and only suitable for heating precooked plated meals. Beds were comfy and air conditioning a blessing - but especially as a budget traveler I need to be able to prepare my own food instead of having to eat out in expensive restaurants. Also a table or surface in kitchen would be great - the outside courtyard was on top of a rather smelly drain, so not ideal to eat out there.
Had everything one required.
Too many keys, struggled with all the locks. No natural light in the entire unit. We had to go and buy extra coffee to at least drink a cup of coffee in the evening and morning before we left.
Street sleepers came knocking on doors late at night.
Nice comfortable bed.
Thank you so much for a great overnight stay!
From the moment we entered the street, we saw that Boer and Brit is centrally located which awarded us the opportunity to walk to every place we needed to be. Shops are close by, as well as rich cultural monuments. The accommodation lended us a safe, clean and comfortable feel. The unit itself made you feel like you are in a town where the history is rich. The perfect combination of modern and vintage with the original wood flooring and updated open modern bathroom. We were pleasantly impressed and satisfied with the size of the rooms as well as the accessibility. Heidi, the owner, was a big help whenever there was something we needed. She has the perfect tone of kindness and assistance. We definitely appreciated the secure parking at the back, but parking in front on the pavement is seemingly safe as well! I would definitely recommend this peaceful, accessible and comfortable place for anyone to stay at. Worth every penny!
It is very neat and comfortable. Good value for the price.
A very cute, clean and neat place. The air-conditioner was great for driving the winter cold away. We will spend the night there again if we take on the long road.
Any traveler can stay here with confidence. This is a very special place.
The house is very centrally located, walking distance from various attractions, unit neat and clean, can recommend to anyone who wants to explore Graaff-Reinet and surroundings.
Thank you Heidi. I come every 6 months and would definitely recommend Boer and Brit.
The floor in the hallway definitely needs attention, as does the shower door. We had a wonderful stay, everything was clean and tidy! Thank you very much.
The accommodation is really excellent. Very clean and tidy, and perfect for overnight and even a few days holiday in the town. The parking is the only part of the accommodation that deserves less than 5 stars, as the narrow entrance and exit behind the building is not ideal for a large vehicle or trailer (unit 2a). We also didn't have access from our unit to the parking lot behind the building, which meant we had to walk around the block in the dark to get back to our unit door. Additional lamps/candles may also be useful with loadshedding; but we were very grateful for the battery candle that was in the unit. The walls between unit 2A and 2B are very thin (due to the door separating the units) which meant that our neighbors, who were quite noisy, were slightly disturbing. Maybe consider renting these two units out to groups only.
Very clean and tidy. We really enjoyed it and can really recommend the cute place.
See stars.
Boer Brit is a beautiful accommodation unit. Very comfortable and clean.
Accommodation no. 1's rear door lock can be replaced/repaired. On the morning of the 28th when we left there was water, but the geyser spilled a lot of water. There might be something wrong with its pressure valve.
Very safe, very tidy, enough sleeping space, bathrooms and kitchens, heaters, very central.
Old structure, but very neat and well equipped.
We were pleasantly surprised by the size of the unit. We enjoyed the space and could comfortably hang out in the kitchen or TV room. Safe parking and a barbecue area were also a plus. However, attention must be paid to the plank floor in the TV room. A heavy person may just walk through the planks. Otherwise, we will definitely use you again.
Thank you very much for such a clean and comfortable place to stay. We were really pleased with the facilities. It very definitely meets the above.
We stayed in a 2 room unit. Had to go through one bedroom to bathroom. No privacy for other guests. TV in master bedroom, only 1 chair and double bed. Outside were only 3 plastic chairs, 1 of which had a broken back. Complimentary tea and coffee is appreciated but only 3 of each.
The house was neatly furnished although it is very old. The floorboards in the living area worried us a bit, but overall it's a comfortable place to stay overnight.
Neat place. Easy to get. Great for families who want to stay there. Bathroom / toilet runs out of kitchen which is a bit nasty. Only SABC 1,2,3 and E-TV available. However, no water available, according to management, they communicated it, but we did not get it. We understand drought and crisis, but the toilet bowl cannot open to refill the toilet. We packed up and drove on to Oudtshoorn. That way we also lose our money. I just feel there could be better provision for water crises. ojo-water tank. After all, it's a big overnight group.
Heidi was very kind to move day on. Mattresses sleep well. The yellowwood floors were broken and a big risk. Only saucepan had a broken lid. Mice run under kitchen door. They make toilet in mason drawer. Dust lies red on kitchen cupboard. Cobwebs on ceilings in all corners of the rooms. Cleaner was there Sunday morning at 08:30 to clean. Place is really not up to standard. Sorry.
To start, it doesn't look the same as on the internet. The windows were broken, the toilet facilities were not right. We will never book with them again.
The cottage is about 100 years old. Beautiful and neatly decorated. Centrally located in the town. The owner is very helpful and friendly. Will definitely recommend this unit for people who need overnight accommodation.
We wanted affordable self-catering accommodation close to the centre of town and Boer and Brit fitted the bill nicely. The cottage was spacious, comfortable, quiet, and had a nice little garden area. Heidi, the owner lives off-site and we were a little concerned about access, but everything went smoothly. There is secure parking at the back of the property and we had no problems with our small Polo, but owners of larger vehicles might find it problematic.
Boer en Brit is a stylish old house that is comfortably furnished and we had a wonderful stay. We were pleasantly spoiled when the staff simply washed our laundry too. Thank you Heidi for all your efforts!
Can stay overnight with a piece of mind.
Beautiful decor in the house with nice big rooms. For the price you can't really complain, it's a good place to lay your head. It's wonderfully located. The door frames are dangerously low for the slightly taller men. The owner requested a few days before our arrival that we pay the rest of the amount due for accommodation in advance by EFT before she will let us know where to pick up the key which I was a bit uneasy about, but at least have the key got and really enjoyed the stay.
Cute house with lovely decor. Works good as overnight accommodation. Wooden floors need attention.
A more visible warning can be placed at the low entrance door to the kitchen.
We were four adults and had a great stay. The air conditioning kept the house wonderfully cool and contributed to a pleasant stay.
The house is very neat and clean inside and out. There are a few small things that could be fixed. Floorboards in living room and back room are broken - one could be stepped on and injured (especially in the living room). The front bedroom is not private as it is right by the front door. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people sitting and walking around there and it doesn't always feel safe.
All the doors won't lock properly, no way to cool down, ordinary little fan doesn't work is no match for the heat, safe parking advertised but the little road is almost to small for a vehicle. Gutters not cleaned, consumed by mosquitoes day and night. Nightmare destination.
Shower spills a lot. Sink can be replaced.
Very neat and good value for money. Very good service and would use Boer and Brit again any day.
It was incredible. Great experience, feeling like we are back in the 1900s.
While we only stayed one night at Boer and Brit, it was a lovely establishment to be at, well equipped and very clean. My wife and myself loved the theme, she being English and me Afrikaans (great conversations were had). Will definitely be staying there again when in South Africa.
It was lovely to be completely private. Everything that is needed and very neat and comfortable. There were little things like light bulbs that didn't work and barbecue tools would be welcome. Also a large trash can outside.
Thank you very much Heidi. Was easy to get key and return. The cottage is simply everything and more that one could ask for. Had such a nice stay. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Thank you, we had a great stay. We would suggest providing more information about the history of the house for your guests to read. Top accommodation and great service. Thank you.
Was a pleasant experience after a long trip. Very clean and tidy. I would recommend it anytime.
Definitely value for money accommodation. Very neat and very spacious.
I would definitely recommend Boer and Brit to others. It was a very neat and warm place that still has characteristics of a typical village house.
Nicely restored house. Have the necessary things at your disposal.
Clean and tidy - environment a bit run down. Good value for money. On the first visit no heater and it was cold! The geyser was turned off and we weren't warned to turn it on on arrival - a bit of an unpleasant surprise, although the water was quite acceptably warm after a while.
We had a wonderful stay at Boer and Brit. Would recommend for an overnight stop.
Nice quiet area and tidy.
Everything was clean and neat and highly recommend this place. The only thing that could be looked at is the shower, the water leaks a bit at the bottom and the mixer did not work well. Otherwise the place is great.
The house was clean and neat. Fully equipped. Good beds. We had a great time there. I recommend it.
Service was great, accommodation comfortable, clean and tidy.
You should do something about the top of the backdoor. The hinges are the wrong way around. And a door between bedrooms would be nice for privacy.
The accommodation isn't bad. The doorframes in some of the rooms are a bit low (like kitchen), I am very tall and if I stand in front of the kitchen's doorframe, my head is hidden. All the information wasn't made available beforehand about the accommodation. No one there to receive you. The keys need to be retrieved from the garage and if I didn't phone the owner, I wouldn't have had this information. Please also note that there are two garages opposite each other, so be sure to ask which one. There is parking behind the unit. Apart from that, the accommodation was sufficient, neat and clean. I would recommend it as an overnight stay, but not longer.
For the night we spent here, the location was perfect. The house is very neat and affordable.
The rooms were spacious and neat.
