9 guests' feedbackJimmy's Place is a wonderful getaway for the weekend with a breathtaking view of the dam. The caretaker is very kind and helpful. We would definitely love to visit again.
We had a very nice stay. A few things that don't work. Fans, gas stove off the plates, pool table broken.
The place is truly something special, excellent location, nice road to the Thatch Lodge, neat and well looked after in all respects with a hospitable "host". Definitely worth a visit.
Well situated. Summertime will be better so the swimming pool can be used.
Als nice beds were ok and bathrooms ok. Kitchen large and.
Did not notify the place of our booking thus they were not prepared for us, had to wait two and a half hours at a "Mall" before the place was ready to accommodate us. One bathroom in the house was unusable because of no water in the bathroom. Thatch roof needs some maintenance. The place was full of ants etc, in fact, maintenance is lacking and it is a pity as the place is well situated. All in all, we've enjoyed our stay but it could be much better if the place was well maintained, grass cut, the swimming pool properly cleaned, the pool table had all the balls etc.
The house is well equipped and very comfortable. Staff were all friendly and helpful. The peaceful atmosphere contributed to making the weekend special for our family group.
What a beautiful place on the dam. Great accommodation and friendly cleaner.
