48 guests' feedbackVery nice stay, the house is perfect for a family or family for an overnight stay.
The best WiFi I have ever experienced at accommodation. My husband had to attend an online meeting, and the host kindly sorted us out onto his WiFi so that this could happen. Super quiet and clean.
All the basics covered. Clean and roomy.
We enjoyed it very much. There were even lamps that they put on when we got there in loadshedding. Will stay there again!
Very nice stay at Laurie's place. He checked in on us often to make sure we were okay. He immediately made us feel at ease and at home.
Accommodation was clean with sufficient hot water to bathe. Bed was comfortable and clean.
Thanks, had a nice stay.
Very neat and clean and the air conditioners even during load shedding were a winner.
Unfortunately it was loadshedding when we arrived. The house had only two paraffin lamps and no gas stove, and not even a grill outside, so we couldn't cook anything or even just make coffee. It was very disappointing. Flashlights would also be a much better option than the paraffin lamps. Otherwise a cute place and very tidy.
Was only one night but very nice stay. Will use again.
Poor communication from owner - asked twice about water and got no answer. Very hot with fan in second bedroom (which you can't keep separate, stays on with light meaning you can't sleep) and nothing in master bedroom.
Place was clean, tidy and easy to find. Laurie is an awesome host. We showed everything nicely and gave advice on the best vantage points for the dam. Place is safe and feels like your own home.
We got our reservations wrong and were a day late. When we realized our mistake, we immediately called the manager. He was so kind and helpful. Our accommodation was moved to another place a day later without any additional payment. So I can't answer last 2 questions.
The owner was very friendly and helpful. The place was spotless and comfortable.
Clean and tidy.
We had a very nice stay. The place was neat and clean. Rooms were very large and very comfortable. Our two dogs were also safe.
Neat clean and comfortable overnight facilities. Very friendly and helpful service and reception.
Beautiful, safe and clean.
A lovely, basic sleepover with clean bedding and amenities at an absolute pocket-friendly price. Plus animal friendly. They will definitely see us again!
Moved us to an air conditioned unit on a sweltering day. So it was pleasant. However, air conditioning is only in the living room, but a ceiling fan helped in the small room. However, the power went off when the neighbors switched on air conditioning. Maybe also fill freezer bowls with water so that there is ice. During load shedding we also had no water.
Quiet and clean. Is a good location for the road to Jeffreys Bay.
Thank you for the help with the horses' sleeping place and the nice braai facilities.
After a long trip we were warmly welcomed. The place is very nice and clean with everything provided such as fully equipped kitchen I think I will visit again in future.
Place well located, neat, clean and a pleasant stay. To recommend.
Accommodation was perfect, excellent location for overnight rest between Cape Town and Pretoria.
We booked the smaller unit and the owner put us in the larger unit which was very considerate of him.
Was pleasant to spend the night there.
Gariep Poplar was sufficient for one night's stopover on the way to Mossel Bay.
Hostess was very friendly. Neat, clean and private. Will definitely stay again.
We found Gariep.Poplar easily. Laurie was friendly and helpful. It was very hot, the air conditioners were handy. Comfortable for an overnight stay.
No feedback about TV and WiFi not working.
Ideal place to stay overnight with everything you need.
Accommodation is neat and clean. Good bedding.
Lovely braai area, clear clean sky and stargazing was very enjoyable for us. Rooms are luxurious and lack nothing, fantastic open plan lounge and kitchen, fully equipped. Quiet and safe!
There is no WiFi as advertised. In my opinion, this is misrepresentation. Parking is off street as advertised but cannot be classed as "secure". Old house adapted to function as a guest house.
Neat, clean and easy to find.
Good location, neat and comfortable.
Very clean and easy to find, good beds.
The unit is a comfortable size, with a nice spacious bathroom. Fully equipped kitchen. The beds are soft and the host is friendly and helpful. Is a very nice overnight facility.
We definitely recommend Gariep.Poplar Gastehuis.
Very neat. Everything that is needed. Good place to sleep.
Had a wonderful stay! Warm welcome! Beautifully clean and tidy accommodation! Will stay there again for sure!
We really enjoyed the stay, thank you.
At least helped to rest a little after a long day on the road.
Neat accommodation. Dissatisfied with the owner barging in there at any time. No privacy.
Opposite of upmarket, but with upmarket price.
Weak. No information about WiFi, laundry service.
