"The first acquaintance with Kleinplasie Gastehuis, the only Preferred partner in the town of Calvinia, was somewhat strange!"

On the website it is claimed that the capacity of Kleinplasie is 331 (!) persons, and that all accommodation is full for the rest of the year. However, when we wanted to book, it turned out that accommodation was available. On enquiry, we were told that guest house owners themselves are responsible for the content on the website. We were kindly received at approximately 15:00 on 12/1/2023, but told that our unit was still being cleaned. This despite the fact that we could have checked in from 12:00 onwards. Then we were allocated the Inniedam rondavel as accommodation, although we were booked for Unit 2 or 4. Inniedam was so-so clean! Not dirty, but so-so! The dishes and kitchen appliances were really kept to an absolute minimum. No insecticide was available for the many flies and mosquitoes, coming from the nearby farm animal camps. No pond to swim in, as advertised, was there. Safety, such as a locking car gate, window bars, decent door locks are non-existent. (Hopefully this is not necessary in the countryside either!). We are not going to blame Kleinplasie for the long power outages due to Eskom's load shedding, which caused the air conditioner, in the bloody heat, as well as the TV, to not work. However, the noise from the house's generator was troublesome during those times, and made one jealously wonder why that power is not also available for the guests? As for value for money: for someone who would be happy with a very, very basic stay, this can be recommended. But we note that Kleinplasie has raised the fees as follows for 2023: camping from R200 to R400 (that's a 100% increase) and accommodation in the rooms from R650 to R1000 (53%)! These are extraordinary increases, which make it no longer value for money accommodation at all. You get better, and more affordable accommodation on Calvinia itself, especially where Kleinplasie is located about 3 km outside the town. So, unfortunately, a lot of things need to improve on Kleinplasie, before it can be recommended. Hopefully, the newly appointed lady on Kleinplasie can bring about big changes in terms of the accommodation, so that the accommodation can meet preferred partner values.
